    Great State Veggie Burger
    Sara S.

    The person who took our order was awesome! She had such a great disposition and was so helpful. We got the Great State Veggie Burgers without cheese (vegans)and with caramelized onions, and they were pretty good. We got onions rings and fries, as well. It was super busy, but we managed to snag a hightop. We didn't have to wait too terribly long for our food. I wouldn't say this is the most amazing veggie burger I've ever had, but it was completely acceptable as a last stop before heading home.

    This was my first visit to Great State Burger. The location looked vibrant, and the food smelled good, so we thought we'd give it a try. The kid at the counter was very patient and helped us choose what to order. We ordered two great burgers and fries. I wanted my burger without cheese, but I received a cheeseburger anyway. Rather than complain, I just ate it. The food was okay. I liked the burger, but it was hard to tell whether or not it was actually good because all I tasted was the cheese. My sister prefers cheeseburgers, and she thought the burger was pretty decent. We both thought the fries were just ok. They definitely could have been better. They tasted a little weird to us but couldn't pinpoint what was off about them. Personally, I didn't care for the ketchup either. The Jones soda wasn't our favorite, but we liked the lemon lime and the berry lemonade. The cola flavored one was gross. We dined in and found the experience satisfactory. The restaurant was clean and comfortable. There were ample seating options despite it being around lunchtime. I'd eat at Great State again if given the opportunity.

    For a fast burger joint, this was satisfying. It's great that you can get a burger for under $10, but they are pretty small. The onion rings were pricy at $7, but they were amazing. Not too "oniony" and perfect crisp to them. Great location not too far from convention center and Amazon offices. Burgers and ingredients were fresh. Fast service and nice laid back casual ambiance. I would come back again and try the milkshakes. The state burger sauce was also great on my burger.

    2 burgers, 1 fry, 1 onion ring for $50.73. Are. You. Kidding. Me.? You're a fast food joint. I can get the same for less at El Guacho.

    I tried the seasonal burger and it was decent. My only comment would be that the patty was pretty dry. But I liked the interesting flavor combo. I tried some of my friends fries and they were great! I think I'd comeback if I were in a pinch.

    It's still a pretty average place. I ordered a burger and they forgot the tomato and lettuce, so it was very plain. The portions are still small as usual and I don't like how they charge an extra dollar for caramelized onions. I do like their milkshake though. I got their chocolate malt shake this time and it tasted like melted chocolate ice cream which I love.

    Extremely overpriced fast food. This place is a joke they make it look like in their advertisement you're going to get a really big juicy Quality burger instead you get something that's equivalent to the size of happy meal or Dick's hamburger. I can eat at a legitimate burger spot such as Red Robin kid Valley or decent restaurant and get a way bigger better burger for a better price! The workers were not friendly not attentive the food came out really slow. Two burgers one fries and one drink came to over $47! That is insane. They literally wanted $15 for a regular size milkshake. And they only have the basic milkshake flavors. The french fries taste exactly like elementary school french fries or hospital cafeteria. The fries are the regular frozen crinkle cut french fries you can buy at your grocery store. Never going back I would not recommend this restaurant whatsoever. The only good thing I have to say is that there is decent seating close by And they didn't charge me for ketchup.

    Easy, inexpensive meal for four. Burgers nowadays can be $20 easily and it's nice to get a tasty simple burger for 1/3 to 1/2 the cost of most places. Tasty fries- not too salty. The wait was short and tasty smaller burger and fries hit the spot. They also can provide lettuce buns if you cannot eat the buns- they don't have GF buns but the lettuce is a good option and don't charge extra for it like other businesses. Everyone enjoyed their meal.

    Fries!!!!

    Burgers and fries here are great, food is ready in minutes! They have kiosks by the entrance for customers to order, which make ordering a lot easier. I also like the atmosphere here with some arcade games that we can play while waiting for food.

    Came here for breakfast, sadly enough for a burger. I had the hash brown and it is a patty that comes to catch up. Catchup and hashbrowns are the bomb. This person took my order was super nice, overall good food. BATHROOM REVIEW: there are two bathrooms, one person he's only. Do you need a code to get in, which I get because of all the truck people around that they want to take a vantage of a bathroom. Bathroom is super clean, and surprisingly well kept. Sit or squat? Sit!

    this sandwich was highly impressive as the main part of the…read moresandwich, it was pretty necessary that the pork be cooked to near-perfection, and i have to say it was here it gave off a deep, brown-ish color, which showed the extent of it's cooking and marination. It wasn't quite incredibly tender, but the marinade added an absolute ton of flavor. more importantly, it was present plentifully throughout the sandwich, so practically every bite came filled with pork I also have to mention how packed together the ingredients are between the buns. when you start eating, it's inevitable that a quarter of the ingredients will fall onto the wrap below, leaving a nice secondary meal to finish off after the sandwich is done. the sandwich is packed incredibly tight during the wrapping process, but it unravels a bit while eating. for me, the major highlights of this meal was the onions and the aioli Starting with the onions, these may be the best I've ever had on a sandwich. They're caramelized amazingly, placed onto the sandwich in astoundingly large pieces, are crunchy, and there's just a lot of them. They're just wonderful both texturally and taste-wise. This sandwich is absolutely lathered with aioli - practically dripping with it. This boosted the overall flavor so much, especially because this aioli was addictingly good. In my experience, the amount of sauce has been directly proportional to how much I enjoyed a sandwich, and when the sauce is this good - it's even on the top of the bun! - i absolutely loved it Somehow the lettuce stayed crunchy despite all the otherwise wetness going on in the sandwich. Props for that The jalapenos were great as well for that extra bit of spicy - I would've loved to have more of them while the bread was toasted well, the one downside was i thought it was pretty hard and tough, which made chewing kind of difficult. I found my jaw to be pretty tired at the end after eating this. I would've much preferred a softer roll that's easier to bite into I've had similar sandwiches from Paseo and Bongos, and in my opinion this does edge out both of those Comparing to Paseo, the sandwich there has way more oil, making it more sloppy and I do like the bread there a lot better, but the pork feels richer and better marinated here (although less fatty), and the onions are definitely caramelized better here as well. Bongos has a pretty similar level of pork with more, but onions are definitely a step down What moves this place above those two for me is the amount of aioli used here far exceeds those other places, which just makes the overall eating experience better For the price (about 14 dollars) this is a really filling meal

They double wrap the sandwich in foil and butcher paper and if you include the paper bag it comes in, you have a triple wrapped mound of yumminess! The steak is chopped finely and the Wiz is oozing all over the sandwich. They cook it to order so it is piping hot when you open it and it smells wonderful. The bun surrounds the contents pretty well but as with this type of sandwich it can get messy quickly. Definitely use caution.

Toppings were fresh and the special sauce is pretty good. The onion rings were amazing! I can see what the fuss is about. It's a thick, crunchy coating that absorbs the umami and onion aroma from big, juicy onion rings and a light dusting of peppery kick. They stayed crispy over the course of an hour too.

The restaurant itself leaves a lot to be desired, but I'm not asking too much. I believe the owner said he was trying to revamp the place. I hope that the area comes alive in the future years, that should help. Here's the issue though, this is the slowest spot ever. I've waited 30 minutes for fries - FRIES. I don't mind waiting for food, but it should remain reasonable. There were only two or three people working, and one man did tell us this, but I need to be honest - this was on Super Bowl Sunday. No one was able to get anyone a beer from the tap for 40 minutes, the food took forever and it appeared that online orders were being prioritized (which makes sense, you make as you get orders coming in, but that puts your in person customers in an odd and sometimes frustrating position). To be honest, I probably wouldn't have minded as much if I just had some fries to snack on. I didn't mind as much this one time because I was just happy to find a place to watch the Super Bowl Half Time show, but other days, it's a little hard to look past. I wish this business the best, I live too close to not hope for its improvement! Looking forward to updating my review. At the end of the day, if you're hungry, it's late, this is your spot.
