Buger Buds is a food truck that's typically parked right next to a brewery, offering plenty of…read moreseating for all. We visited for a weekday lunch and our order took about 5 minutes total. Proper Patty ($11) - This burger comes with two smash patties, both of which are heavily salted and somewhat crisped up - the pictures from other people make it seem like they cook long enough to get lacy caramelized edges, but it's not quite to that point. Instead, the burgers, while not moist and fatty, aren't dried out either, and give a great beefy flavor. The burger sauce adds some tangy sweetness, and some pickles on top adds even more sweetness, but a very fresh crunch. It's otherwise pretty standard with the lettuce and tomato. A solid smashburger. (4/5) Fries ($5) - These are fried enough to give a crust on the potatoes, but not enough for the fries to be come crisp. Still, they aren't floppy, so while not entirely crisp, these are still good for eating especially since the insides are nice and fluffy. They are salted a lot, which combined with the salty dip (we went with the Bud's Sauce), equals a parched mouth after eating. I think they actually use a lime salt or something as I can detect a bit of citrus flavor. The Bud's Sauce is a nice mayochup mixture with I think a bit of smokiness from paprika and some chopped onion. It's sweet, tangy, and salty. (4/5) Overall Burger Buds serves some nice classic smashburgers! It's great for a visit while in town for a quick and easy meal.

Service was fine & food didn't take too long. They have a fair amount of picnic tables to the side for eating there, however due to the noise from traffic we opted to take outs to the park up the road to eat by the water. We ordered one small onion ring, a bacon cheeseburger, a cheeseburger, chicken tenders w/fries and a chocolate malt. The onion rings were probably the best thing probably because it's one of the few things they actually make in house & don't get premade from syco. The chocolate malt was good very thick but everything else was mid, just your standard syco shit burger patties you can find anywhere. No flavor or seasoning, Oh! and soggy wet shredded lettuce. So disappointing!

The decor was perfect with a picture of a High Steel Bridge and sitting also bar area was great. The tables of area trees give homage to the height that they grown and their journey. Love the live edge. Our food choices the Oyster Basket, Fish and Chips and a Veggie Burger with Blue Cheese crumbles were all gourmet delights. Fresh oysters were cooked to perfection and the HSB sauce was a perfect addition.

Unfortunately they were out of the oysters, but we will try again. I just wish they had a side salad option ;) I was told the owner is the cook - well 10 stars to you, because you care about what you cook.

There was a charge for the substitution. The burger was good. The bun was soft with a nice chew and just a smidge of sweetness. The veggies in the burger were fresh and crisp. It was lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and pickles. I liked how they wrap it so it's convenient to eat and you don't have to touch the burger. The burger tasted so clean and fresh. The onion rings were delicious! They had a good slice of onion in the batter and the fry was CRISP! It was crisp till the last bite.
