Cheese Fries don't seem to travel well. Pass if you're getting them to-go.

The fries and vanilla shake were just okay. Low-budget ambience. Overall, Trueburger did not live up to the hype.

This place is overrated. Kronnerburger and Clove & Hoof are much better for high end. For a regular burger place like this just go to Ahn's quarter pound down the street.

Fresh and tasty burger

True Deluxe all the way.
Bronwen AbbattistaNovember 14, 2015
Burger patty was small, flat, and overcooked. I asked for a lettuce wrap. Instead of wrapping the burger, they just put it on a piece of lettuce. I ordered a burger, not a salad.
