Hot honey chicken sandwich w coleslaw
Erica T.

Usually this place rocks but seems to be going downhill lately. Hit honey chicken used to be huge and juicy, now all tiny, crunchy & dry. Boo

$4.34 of fries... apparently
Ethan B.

The fries knock a full 2 stars off this review. Killer Burger's burgers are killer. Maybe a bit of a "duh" there. For fans of spice, the Bender can't be beat, though the Jose Mendoza makes a good effort. If cheese is your thing, the Teemah or Fun Guy are unmissable. The Meathead and Purist are as good as they could be, though if you get one of those you're missing out on the more unique and gourmet burgers. Even the Classic and Motley Queue provide flavorsome, well-balanced takes on the more traditional american and cowboy burger styles, respectively. But the real star, as you have surely heard, is the Peanut Butter Pickle Bacon. I promise you. Try it. Peanut butter and pickle is a combination that you either love, really love, or don't like because you already didn't like either pickles or peanut butter. Despite being greater than the sum of its parts, I've never met someone who enjoys both peanut butter and pickles who doesn't love them together (at least, after a bit of convincing). Killer Burger's take on this combination absolutely does it justice. The wait times can be a bit long, and the prices a tiny bit high, but the burger is worth it. Honestly, I'd recommend just ordering from Killer Burger as delivery anyways. That would be a five star review. Except! The fries. What is happening here? The fries are oversalted to hell, they charge for sauces, and worst of all -- they're skimpy as anything! Yes, the portion works out to be perfectly satisfying without making you feel sick, but for $3.50, I want a portion of fries that leaves me feeling sick! Seriously, how does an order of fries ($4.34 delivered) come out smaller than a pint size burger? They must keep hiring people with smaller and smaller hands, because my handful of fries has only gotten tinier since Killer Burger opened, as well. Get your fry game together, then we'll talk. I'll still eat your burgers while we're not talking, though.

Clean, modern, fast casual dining. Tasty burgers prepared just right and crispy fries. I'm sort of a ranch snob and wasn't thrilled with theirs so next time I will try a different dipping sauce. My husband and I split the Peanut Butter Pickle Bacon Burger and the Meathead. The PBPBB was my favorite of the two. Good flavor! Definitely would eat here again.

Ordered pick up online, I was hesitant to try due to the poor rating but it was definitely worth the try! There's a long wait time so it's best to order pick up online. I ordered the teemah burger, it had blue cheese on it and it was delicious! The burgers are huge and filling! Definitely a must try if you're visiting Oregon!!!

You will see this is the perfect example of a non kosher version of a hamburger.  Classic

It's a shame when you have religious dietary restrictions. Imagine you are craving a burger, and you go outside of your normal place only to find out that they have lost the ability to read the order correctly. It's not the best thing to happen especially when you have to order through an app. Why are simple tasks becoming more difficult than before?

Order: Jose Mendoza & Frys Pros: So the wait was roughly 40 mins. The burger and frys flavor wise tasted good. The jose mendoza was super spicy but had just enough kick flavor wise. The frys are nice and thick. Cons: So they tell people to sign up for the app for the free shareable frys and then you get to the register and cant use the app. Then the lady at the register wont honor the sign up. She has an attitude because every person asked about it. Take the sign down or honor the download. The wait is pretty long still. Not sure I will come back as there are an abundance of burger places. After my long wait for food my food was cold go figure. They have no heat lamp and as we wait for food its just sitting out until they can bag it all call your name for to go.

Jose Mendoza Burger
Lorna V.

We had put off trying them because of poor reviews... sometimes unfairly perhaps or maybe they've just worked out the kinks!? My husband had a Jose Mendoza that he says was delicious and craveable! Loved the hatch chilies! I had a lettuce wrap burger with bacon, fondue cheese (yum) and mushrooms. Also delicious! A little juicy, so hard to eat. The fries were awesome too. So all in all it was a great 1st experience I should also mention it was also really fast-5 minutes on a Friday afternoon at 4.

The wait is crazy long for somewhere that just sells burgers and fries. And honestly it makes the food not worth it.

The house-made tartar and fry sauces were very good. A full house kept the staff busy, but they were still attentive and friendly. A band was about four songs into their set when I left. The house sound system does a great job of making sure everyone can hear the band, but the overall noise level was such that folks had to shout to have a conversation. They do post an entertainment schedule, so if you go there to visit with friends, do it when there are no bands playing. From prior experience, I highly recommend the "Dave's Insane" sandwich.

Through out our stay we were checked on multiple times which was nice. The food was really good. We didn't even finish the tots because the burgers filled us up. They have tons of live music through out the week. It's definitely a great place to relax and catch up with friends

Turns out they're right next door, tucked back a bit from the roadway so easy to miss you and when you're sober. Glad I noticed it as we were driving off, as it's a great taphouse with a large number of beers on draft, in excess of 20 I believe. Service is very gracious, and you don't have to commit to official tasters, they're willing to pour you a little splash of several beers for you to figure out what it is you'd actually like to taste. That said, we opted to do an official flight of four IPAs, one of which was a hazy. All pretty interesting; ended up ordering a pint of one of them to share. Like a lot of tap rooms, they use the app DigitalPour to list their beers so you can check them out online if you like. We'll probably be back again. We didn't order any food while we were there, but what we smelled, and looked at appeared to be pretty good. If we hadn't had such a large breakfast earlier at our hotel, we probably would've taken a flyer on something off their food menu; maybe next time.

Everyone enjoyed their main courses, I loved my goat cheese dumplings. A few of the guys mentioned smaller servings, but I prefer quality to quantity, so maybe just order another entree‍. Bottles of wine were reasonably priced, which I always appreciate. Thanks Clink! for giving Salem a beautiful place for celebrations. Trying the happy hour next...

It wasn't crowded when I arrived, around 3 or 4pm. Service was very friendly and relaxed. It had a comfortable, friendly vibe. It seems this place has a lot of regulars, because a couple groups came in after me and were greeted by name. It was Tuesday, which meant the Happy Hour menu was available all day. The prices were quite reasonable, and we got plenty of food. We ordered the Korean Street Tacos, and Curried chicken lettuce wraps and the cheeseburger with hand cut fries. Everything was delicious. The Korean tacos were a nice mixture of fresh veggies and rich meat flavors as well as some heat. The wraps were generously filled with a great classic chicken salad with curry, and had a great crunch. The burger was juicy and rich, was a good size and had a yummy brioche bun. The fries were cooked well and the ranch was creamy with a dilly kick. This was some solid food at a great price. Apparently Tuesday is trivia night, but we left before that started. This is a great place for some great food. I can see why this place has regulars!

Cozy and not too loud. Their specials menu of select food and drinks was nice, but I was a but disappointed to learn that the only non-alcoholic offering was a canned golden beer (and soft drinks, water - haha, per our server). They did have a decent selection of draft beer. I shared that many restaurants are offering mocktails and that they're missing an opportunity there. The table ordered a sampling of the menu; Korean tacos, Caesar salad, Mac & Cheese, Burger and fries, and Lettuce wraps. Drinks included strawberry lemonade, draft beer, wine, and ice tea. The Korean tacos were good, but not excellent. I think the shell could be improved upon, maybe a fried won ton? Maybe some chili sauce on the side? The Caesar salad was very good, but the mac and cheese was bland and disappointing. Overall it seems like they're working through some kinks. The server could've used some help, as he seemed to have the only one working all of the tables. No ketchup on the table for fries or offer of any. A condiment station might help, but the place is relatively small. I'm glad we stopped in and will certainly give it another shot. It's nice to have an affordable family friendly spot in Salem and I wish them the best of luck!
