Burgerim is located in a high traffic shopping area and isn't anything special to look at from the outside or the inside. To be honest, I was a little disappointed in the lack of character/ambiance when we walked in the door. The menu was not terribly long and was posted above the cashier. But when I took a closer look at the menu, it was kind of cool. It's basically a build your own burger place...choose your bun, meat (or vegie burger if you like), toppings, condiments, how many burgers you want. A combo meal includes your choice of sides, one of which is fresh fries/chips cut in round discs instead of straight French fries or curly fries...
The burgers are not huge...I had only one in my combo meal and it was plenty for me for lunch, but I could see where someone could easily eat 2 or maybe 3 if he was really hungry. The uno combo meal was $6.99. They also have family packs and party packs (picture 16 burgers arranged in a donut-style bakery box).
BUT, enough of the boring stuff! The burger I had was their "classic" but it had a wonderful smoky taste. I literally thought it tasted like a homemade one fresh off the grill. I didn't request a specific way to have it cooked, so mine was cooked through, no pink. You may be able to ask for your desired doneness. But here's the fun part...if you like a "gourmet" burger, some of their options are aged beef (28 days), a mexican inspired patty, chicken breast, falafel, a top grade beef patty (the top of the line beef found in the US), 5 different sauces, and add ons such as a fried egg. Impressive!
So, if I were to rate this restaurant, for a fast food place, I would give it 4.5 out of a 5 star scale. They definitely won brownie points with me when I saw that they offer a sizeable discount for on-duty police officers, firefighters, and paramedics. Two thumbs up and I will eat here again!!!
