Review: Burgers & Brats in Flower Mound

[Common Sense Al]

My wife and I ate there yesterday (Saturday). I had the #7 Speed Bump - "Slow down! Topped with bacon crumbles, chopped onions, cheddar cheese, and flooded with smoky BBQ sauce" for $6.49 plus $2.25 to add German potato salad and a drink.

The burger was on a yellow bun and had an unexpectedly large portion of meat. I think the bun could have been a bit fresher. I liked the flavor but not as much as my last peppercorn burger at Red Robin on June 23rd.

Also, the dining experience is significantly different as Red Robin is a more like a typical restaurant (with a nice environment) and Burgers & Brats is more like a no-frills fast food place. For example, napkins consisted of a roll of paper towels on the table. If you don't want to go out to eat at a McDonald's or Taco Bell type environment, then you probably won't want to go out to eat at Burgers & Brats. Even though I think the food is good, I also think the price is a bit high for what you get and the environment.

I did not care much for the German potato salad - but that may be because it's not "my type" of potato salad or I'm just not use to it. The flavor might "grow on me" if I had it more often.

I would like to go back sometime and try one of their Philly cheese steaks.

their stuff is pretty good, but I thought it was over-priced.

I would like to go back sometime and try one of their Philly cheese steaks.

I used to get their Philly cheese steaks when they were Philly Connection and now Burgers & Brats, but I think the cheese steaks at Jersey Mike's are much better.

We agree with esemerson! My husband thought it was way overpriced for what you get.

I get the Reuben sandwich with German potato salad on the side. I love it. My husband gets "The Usual" Philly sandwich. The portions are big and the food is fresh. I would much rather go to Burgers & Brats than say, Jason's or McAlister's Deli for about the same price.

[Tiff]

Tried them out a few weeks after they opened and got a few different items.

We will never go back there.

While the food was reasonably good it was twice as much as it should have been for the quality and the amounts. We would have been better off choosing an actual sit down place.
