Casual burger and fries, with a healthier twist. It was…read morequite busy but we were able to get a place on the small patio and the food wait was shorter than expected! Staff was nice, too! For me, the flavors are more like a 3/5: the beef tasted a bit stronger than I'm used to, hate to use the word "gamey" but that's the best description I can use. The fries made in beef tallow also had a distinctive taste that wasn't necessarily bad but not my favorite. The only item that was a 1/5 for me was the shake, where I had to just say no and barely could have three tastes of it. The sweetness was just too unusual for me. However, I might just be used to more standard food (usually more into In n Out or Shake Shack or Good Times vibes) so I'm happy I tried this and encourage others to check it out for themselves!

Neither of us could finish that amount of meat, no matter how tasty. The lettuce and tomato was ample and fresh, the cheese nicely melted, the special sauce quite messy though so very tasty.

Worth trying for sure but made for bigger appetites. Lots of screen if you want something to watch. Friendly efficient staff. Just a little more variety would be nice. But when craving a quick affordable burger nearby , this is the place.

We've been wanting to try birdcall for a while and finally decided to eat here after an evening…read moreevent. I loved ordering through the tablet since we needed some time to decide what to get--ended up ordering a chicken parm sandwich, tots, Nashville tenders, nuggets, and a shake. We even ended up getting a free beverage, which was much appreciated. The food was pretty good, the only thing we may pass on next time is the nuggets since we got some tougher pieces. We'd also probably swap the Nashville tenders for regular tenders--the spice on those things will creep up on ya! Honestly, for this place being in Boulder, the prices were reasonable. Overall a win in our opinion. We'll definitely come back if we're feeling more like a fast food meal.

He retired again and sold the business about 7 or 8 years ago and I believe it has been through a few ownerships by now. It is not what it was in so many ways but it is still an OK dog and hits the spot when the craving occurs. Customer service and value are a bit lackluster though the new owner has a newer, bigger wagon with more of a kitchen and menu. Also, the busy, crazy holiday event on Pearl is probably not a fair time to truly evaluate his potential, so I will try again soon. The wagon was unoccupied when we arrived, with no sign to customers about a return time and neither of the booth operators on either side had a clue where he went or when he would be back. I understand a solo operator needs to leave occasionally but a posted note would have been nice. We waited awhile and then wandered the event some and went back about 20 minutes later and he was serving. He was out of the grilled beer brat my husband had wanted, had a very busy lunch crowd apparently and he was understocked. We both ordered hot dogs with toppings which were quite fresh and tasty but the toppings were very skimpy. The buns still have the poppy seed top. Now, I do have to say, he is still offering dogs for $3, I think about what Eddie was selling at a decade ago. But food costs go up, so if you plan to use Eddie's reputation for a well endowed dog, price accordingly so there is some substance to it. Maybe he normally does but was running out on the holiday, I am not sure, but it is not the same as Eddie! Please consider raising the price a bit to reflect the real cost of space on Pearl and plentiful servings. I am sure you will still have lots of customers. No one can replace Eddie's dynamic personality but the food should not be hard to duplicate.

Maybe I just miss In-N-Out from my years and visits from the west coast days, the home territory of these burgers. And maybe I was so happy to find this one, my rating meter went up. The one in the Denver metro area formerly known as Stapleton was the first inland location I tried. I strained to give it a 4. It was crowded and slow and the veggies were so sub par, twice was enough. We are rarely in that area anyway, and it was a stretch to get there when busy, closer but not close enough to our Aurora destination. Finally today, I was able to try the newer Longmont location, more similar in situation to most of the CA and OR locations that I have tried. The veggie parts were up to standards I was used to, when every previous location I had tried further west delivered Salinas Valley-based farm products straight up I-5, likely fresh from the packing houses. This staff was right on task in traditional In-N-Out training, working quickly on a summer lunch time, getting the well done fries done, perhaps even a bit "over" well done but so much better than damp underdone as in the Denver area shop. Now that I know they pay attention, I can go back to ordering standard as I could do in CA. My onions were grilled and visible, the chopped yellow peppers had "bite." The spread ("special sauce" to you newbies) was good and just enough for a good taste without dripping all over me. The lettuce was bold green and crispy, the tomato, rich red and moist. Our drinks were fine. My husband was releived to get an optional 16oz root beer float as most in Boulder seem to be 20 oz and some even bigger. That is far too much for diners our age. No thanks. My iced tea was fine and self-serve allowed me to add water to lower the caffeine content, medically necessary. Well made fresh tea in their separate container and not a spout from a soda machine which is so much cleaner tasting and fresh. Dining tables outside are covered, perfect on a sunny warm day, which is how we always ate out west near the coast. Quite a lot of traffic on 119 going by, but not really an annoyance. It's fast food at a humongous shopping center, not fine dining in the country. I will certainly be back, maybe even considering a special trip to do so and not just tagging it on to a mandatory appointment. I wish I could give it a 5+ star rating.
