Restaurant: BGR The Burger Joint

Initial thoughts:
  • Design and Decor:  Cool, fun and casual.
  • Wait:  Not bad.  There was a small line.
  • Food:  The burgers rocked!
  • Drinks:  They have beer and amazing shakes.
  • Price:  $8-$15 for a burger and fries and rings are extra
  • Service:  Friendly
  • Would I go back?  Yes.
The first BGR was in Bethesda and it opened in May 2007.  There are now 4 with plans to open another in Clarendon.  I liked BGR.  The burgers we tried were really good.  
The Snooki Burger of the month is yummy.  Topped with jalapenos and cream cheese and served with fried pickles.  
I also loved the Wellington with deep roasted mushrooms, caramelized onions, garlic, and black truffles with a touch of mustard seed and blue cheese.  
Gotta love the mojo sauce!  I guess lemon, mayo, A1, Worcestershire, chives, horseradish and more.
The Apple Pie shake of the month is fabulous.
Also, the burger with cheese and bacon was delicious.  
BGR offers gold fries, sweet potato fries grilled asparagus.
