    First off the burgers are fantastic. The garlic fries are even better then they have at the Safeco field. And the shakes are thick and yummy. Food came out super quick and was not expensive. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This would have gotten a 5 star except for the whole games theme is cool except they only have two tables with the games.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]And they were both taken when we got there. We finally snagged one, and the controller was broken.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Turns out the games are just one of those temu emulators with a fake PS2 controller.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I personally don't have a problem with this, you're never gonna have access to all these old great games otherwise, however it is illegal. I understand the practicality of it, I just hope they don't get shut down. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Anyway, I took one star off for the broken controller and the only two tables with games... Everything else was FANTASTIC[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    BBQ Burger with Onion Rings

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]The theme is cute with the murals painted on the wall and the decor from different video games.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The guy working the counter was extremely friendly and welcoming. The burgers were fine. My dad says his (BBQ Burger) was dry. Mine wasn't but could have used more seasoning. The fries and onion rings were hot and seasoned just right with just a sprinkling of salt. Overall it was a decent visit and I'd rather come here than the Red Robin across the parking lot.

    Was taken by surprise that this new business took over a staple burger joint I grew up with:( But I'll say the burger was rather tasty, fries DEFINITELY needed deep fried longer, miss the crinkle fries HERFY'S had.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]I guess what reeled me in was the old school video game setup in here.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You can even play video games while eating your burger. Overall I like to set up, good customer service and the food was okay. I had ordered the bacon cheeseburger nothing too fancy, and with a side of fries. I would definitely come back and order something different.

    Very satisfying burger for the price! I got the California Burger and Onion Rings. Easy to order in the yelp app (processed thru Grubhub) and it was hot and ready for pickup when I arrived. Burger: Not smooshed. Good size. Tons of avocado which I LOVE. Bacon was buried in there somewhere but doesn't overpower the rest of the ingredients. Veggies not wilted. It's a yellow bun! I have been hard pressed to find a place that still uses yellow buns. Onion rings: battered and fried amazing flavor bombs. I especially appreciate that the onion itself breaks when you bite into the ring, vs those where one bite pulls out the whole onion and you're left with breading. Comes with fry sauce, yum!

    First time in, and I wanted something quick in the area and found level up. We had a party of 5 and the food didn't take too long. Chicken tenders were crispy, and the fries didn't disappoint. I'm definitely going back again. Oh, and the milkshakes are amazing.

    This business replaced herfy burgers at lake wood town center. The menu still maintains some of the favorite items that herfy had. I loved the Cajun Burger from Herfy's so I tried that as a comparison between the two. The burger was prepared well, it's not as good as the one herfy burgers did but still a good burger. Fries served with a side of fry sauce were great. The service was friendly and prompt, they don't have a sign up above the restaurant yet but the door has a logo on it and the inside is decorated with video game themed art work. Over all I'm sad to see herfy burger go but this spot is still a good place for lunch. I ordered a small fry, a burger, and a bottle of water which came to about 16$ with tip

    Greek Burger
    Adaryll B.

    Came here about a month ago. This was the first time I came to the restaurant since the name change. After reviewing the menu, I noticed they had a Greek Burger. I asked the waitress if it was popular/good. She said it was very popular and if I was a fan of Greek flavors, I'd enjoy it. So I ordered it. As I waited, I was excited to see they had a unique video game system that had 100+ games available to play. The restaurant was decked out with classic video game decorations. I got my burger which was very hot, and fresh. I took the first bite and thankfully I had the wrapping below the burger because it was extremely juicy and a little messy. Overall, it was very reminiscent to a gyro. I'd order it again when I go back.

    Under new management/ownership.....Was told that they kept the patties and the sauce from the previous owners but everything else is the same, Looked on Yelp seen Level Up burgers and decided to give them a try.... Upon entering and asking I realized it was Herfys.... However I will give them credit the video game concept they thought up is pretty cool, you can play old video games while you wait/eat...... with any new establishment there will be growing pains....I personally think the patties are lacking seasoning, just a matter of opinion... give em a try...

    This Herfys has changed to a Level Up Burgers. Now hear me out, they've kept the fry sauce and some burgers. However, they've changed out their fries. They're regular, which quick to get soggy. They've cut down on the menu, no more wraps. Still got handful of milkshakes and burgers though. New decor, arcade style. They're working on installing some TV's at the dining table for guests to play n eat! Really friendly people took it in early October.
