Das Bürgery — Restaurant in Dumaguete

I ordered 400+ worth of food and got a triple patty burger and two sets of fries, one being basic, and one being topped.

Here is my honest review:

The full monty burger was phenomenal. It was one of the best I've had in years and that's saying a lot. However, it was missing some key elements. I could taste the creaminess, the sour tang, the umami, the richness, but one thing it was missing was a little kick. It was completely balanced between savoury and sweet, it had a sour tang to it and a some much needed creaminess, but it lacked a little bit of spice. Even just some pepper to give it a bit of a kick would send the burger to another level. Additionally, the layering was a bit disappointing. There was no tomatoes or pickles and it was solo burger that coated 265 pesos. I'd recommend putting more lettuce, at least one slice of tomato and two pickles. If it costs you to raise the price or create another burger, go for it. The burger was a three out of five for me. Cost wise, its price isn't comparable to what you get. It's very good food but if you're looking for something filling at this price, it's not it.

Fries. I was so excited for the fries. I ordered the Das Fries and the Single Serve. One was basic and one was topped but both equal to near 200 pesos. I was expecting a lot of fries for something of this cost. It looked like the fries were manually cut instead of bought which is always good but the serving size was laughable. If it's manually cut and it costs that much, please switch to store bought. When it comes down to flavor, it wasn't salted or spiced. It was just slightly soggy and bland. The topped fries was topped generously with sauce and had a little bit of bacon. The bacon was such a little amount that you honestly could just leave it out. The sauce was confusing. It was cheesy and garlic-y but the garlic sauce was too overpowering. Both fries together are rated at two out of five. They're costly and the serving size is a joke.

Overall, the food was good but comparing its cost to its size. I'd have gotten two times more at McDonald's or any fast food joint or burger restaurant than here. If you're willing to spend a lot of money to eat good food and feel satisfied, this is your place. But besides that, it's an okay place.

Here's what I think the chef should improve on:

Don't cut corners. If you're going to charge an over average amount for a burger, make sure the burger is complete with all its essentials.

I understand that there might be a motive of providing good food but if it doesn't fill someone up, then most customers will think it's a rip off and won't return constantly.

Work on your sauces and seasoning. It's close to perfect, but, only close. Learn to experiment with different flavours and make risks. You'll be surprised.

Lastly, when doing take out, please add utensils and napkins. It's...

Title: Tasty Burger in a hotel

Kind and smiling staff Fast serving Portions are ok Good presentation of the product Price, quality to quantity is good Good and clean rest room Air conditioned room I had the Lorenzos way Burger with caramelized onions and mushrooms. There was also yummy thick tasty fries. The Burger was really yummy, the patty was juicy, the caramelized onions gave a special taste the bun was ok. Only the mushrooms I didn't liked because it was from tin hope not from China because there was no taste of mushrooms and if it's from tin and not fresh it's not healthy. In fact a solid good burger much better than McDonald's burgers.

o There is a different restaurant concept. It's like in a food court not like a restaurant. The Burgers you must order and pay in the kitchen part and the drinks you must order and pay in the bar part but it's all in one big room and in the middle are the tables and chairs where you can eat. And the rest of the area are like a market for special foreign products. Is it good or bad don't know it's different it's ok.

The mushrooms from tin in the Burger don't gave a special taste and it's only a fill material and probably not healthy. The Burgers are good but a little bigger would be nice

Explanation of my votings

Pro Contra o Only for your information

5 Stars: It was really special, you must try it 4 Stars: It was nice, you should try it 3 Stars: Nothing special, you could try it 2 Stars: Try only if you have no alternative 1 Stars: Bad, don't bother trying

To understand... Why do I give 5 stars so rarely? Out of over 365 reviews, I realised that there are no businesses that are 100% perfect. I rate businesses in relation to an area, such as a city and the surrounding area. Most businesses in an area sell similar products of different qualities, and I rate these products up to a maximum of 4 stars. Therefore, I decided to give 5 stars if a business in this region has a unique selling point. This could be a unique product, an awesome view, or cosy surroundings that set them apart from other businesses in the area. Even if their products are not perfect, I can still give a five-star rating if there is something spec...

I had a great burger experience here. The bun is soft yet lightly toasted, the meat to bun ratio is just right - the meat remains the star of the story while the bun stays as its worthy accompaniment. I ordered the Double Major burger. Everything was prepared with care - from the quality ingredients, to the way it was wrapped. Made to order and served fresh, the meat maintained its heat and juiciness right to the last bite. I also ordered the Das Fries, and it too was served piping hot with a fair amount of cheese and meat toppings. I like the little touches, the sturdy kitchen towelettes (tissue) they provided, as well as the ambience of the place - comfortable and cool aircon (important!), well lit interior, feels like you’re sitting in the kitchen of the White House.

Maybe I just got lucky. I didn’t experience the previous reviewer’s “worse burger” experience. For me, it was one of my best. I went for lunch and returned again the next day for more.

Hopefully they keep up the...
