I love the Ripple recipe fresh lime drink. The burger was quite good, the fries okay, but they were all very short, like the bottom of the bag. I thought the flavor of the fries was good but not exceptional. Service was good. Like many other reviews I've looked at, the food and service are good, it's the price that poo-poos the experience. $22 for a good burger, small fry and generous drink is too much. For me anyway, granted I'm cheap. I found it odd that I could not have raw onions, only grilled. Don't they arrive raw? read more

Here's a description of what Provo Burger calls a "Root Beer Freeze": The freeze comes in two cups. There is a smaller, not tiny, cup overflowing with vaguely root beer-flavored soft ice creme--about a quart. It comes inside a larger cup, floating in root beer. The root beer and ice creme are in separate cups! The ice creme is soft but quite thick. It can only be eaten with a spoon, which is provided. The root beer is not accessible without removing the inner cup, but that's overflowing with ice creme, so I can't get it out. Perhaps a straw could reach the root beer in the gap between cups, but a straw is not offered. I eat the ice creme in the inner cup until it floats high enough to grasp, I take the inner cup with the ice creme out of the root beer cup. This makes a real mess on the table requiring many napkins to clean up. I spoon the rest of the ice creme into the root beer and mixed it up, and I finally have a real root beer freeze! I had ordered the root beer freeze because on previous visits I had tried the "Old Fashioned Shake or Malt". The first time I ordered a shake I got a two cup offering like the freeze. The inner cup was full of soft ice creme and it rested in a larger cup, possibly to contain the overflow of the inner cup, but there was nothing in the outside cup but the inside cup--making the "Shake or Malt" look deceptively bigger than it actually was. The second time I ordered a malt. I could not taste any malt. I'm not sure the workers even know what malt is. I'm almost 80 years old so I believe I know what an "Old Fashioned Shake or Malt" is, as well as a "Root Beer Freeze". I used to get them 60 years ago from the same building that Provo Burger now uses, as well of dozens of other establishments all over Utah and the surrounding states. Whatever these Provo Burger concoctions are, or how delicious they are, they are not shakes, malts or root beer freezes. When I talked to the manager of Provo Burger this evening he assured me that the products had been produced exactly the way they had been taught to make them. I asked if I could order a shake with some milk in it so I could use a straw. They had no milk on the premises. I asked if they could make me a freeze with half root beer and half ice creme mixed in just one cup. He was reluctant to try something so radical, but guessed he could next time I came. If the owner of Provo Burger is reading this, pay attention! Provo Burger is doing a brisk business, but some things could be corrected. I have no complaint about the things that you are offering--only about the names. Make a shake drinkable through a straw. And mix the root beer and ice creme together to make a freeze so it can be drunk with a straw. Don't float the ice creme in a cup inside another cup! Get new names for what you sell now. The ice creme is good, but it is not a shake or a malt. read more

When I was a kid, this location was a classic burger shop... It closed down for a while, but when it reopened as Provo Burger, I was ready for a burger spot to be back! When we arrived it was very busy but the line was moving quick. We ordered our food and didn't wait long before our number was called. Seating was all full but we ended up sharing a table with another family. They've kept the small town diner vibes, but elevated the menu. Beef Wagyu patties are the standard and you can customize your burger with different toppings and sauces. Definitely recommend the "secret sauce!" We'd read on other reviews that the bun was "bready" so a double burger was recommended. I tried my daughter's "single" burger and thought it tasted just fine. The burger is a smash patty so I could see how some might think the bun overpowers the meat. I ordered my burger "protein style" (no bun) and wished I'd ordered a double. So maybe a double is always recommended? Don't skip the shakes or fresh lime! Learn from my mistake and ask for LITE ICE or you'll end up with more ice than fresh lime. I'm so glad that Provo has a classic burger joint back in this cozy location! read more

It breaks my heart to say this, but this is the most 2.5 place in all of Provo. I'm going to break down our order and then finish it up with how much it cost: 2 double cheeseburgers (both with bacon and one with mushrooms) Two limes Two shakes One family fry + an extra fry sauce That was a total of $70 dollars. I cannot in good conscience recommend this place. As happy as I am that they are using quality and locally sourced ingredients while also making use of a space that was loved and cherished by the community, $70 for all of this is unacceptable. The federal minimum wage is $7.25, you would have to work for two days to afford this meal, and that just isn't okay. I'm sorry, but you can find a much better burger at a much, much better price in the Provo food scene. read more

If you're in the mood for a simple, done right burger, Provo Burger absolutely delivers. The fries alone are worth the visit! They're fried in beef tallow, which gives them this rich, crispy, and insanely delicious flavor you just don't get from regular fries. Pair them with their fry sauce, and it's next-level. The sauce is so flavorful and perfectly complements every bite. The burger itself keeps things simple, but in the best way possible. It's not overcomplicated or overloaded. It is a really well made, tasty burger that hits the spot. Everything works together perfectly, and you can tell they focus on quality and flavor. Definitely a spot I'll keep coming back to! read more

Glad to see a burger place back here. It always needs to be a drive in feel burger place in honor of Ripples. The burger was good, basic, but priced super high for what it is. I was kinda shocked. It's a reason I may not come back often. read more

DELICIOUS! Hands down the best burger and fries and it's not close. Don't be actraus of The jalapeños, they add to the burger and they are not not spicy! Get fries for sure, that pink sauce is special. read more

Provo Burger - Double cheeseburger - Burgers Near Me - Provo, Utah

This place was pretty packed when we rolled up, so I was worried about a long wait, but it only took about 10 minutes to get our food once our order was placed - not bad at all considering there were 8 of us. The environment was nice and clean, and the tables are shaded so we were decently comfortable despite the summer heat. Our young kids loved the free hats and the phonebooth while waiting for the food. The Provo Burger was fantastic - in my opinion this is exactly was a burger should be. I added bacon and it was the right call. The veggies all tasted fresh and I really liked the combo of flavors. Their special sauce was fantastic both on the burger and with the fries. We ordered a bucket of fries for 8 of us, and it was enough to satisfy us all plus have some leftovers to take home. They were spot on with their seasoning, and were the perfect amount of crisp. We also got the chocolate and oreo shakes to share, and once again those 2 shakes were enough to satisfy 8 of us. The chocolate was nice and not overbearing, but the oreo was the favorite of the group. It was loaded with oreos and had next to no unmixed spots (some places serve shakes that are mixed well on top, then are just vanilla ice cream at the bottom - not here!). If you're wanting quality burgers, fries, and shakes, I'd definitely recommend trying this place out. I plan on going back, and look forward to trying out the other shakes (raspberry is next on my list). read more

Expensive for what it is.... They should source the product that Todd Ripple and his family had been using and sell it as the "Ripples Burger" on the menu. This just wasn't the same. The Lime Drink definitely needs some work too. But the fries... read more

Ordered and paid for shake in drive through. Waited 10 minutes. No shake came. Asked employee about shake and they said they forgot about the order. Terrible service. Expensive prices. Save your money and go somewhere else. read more

Solid stop! Ordering was easy since the menu is small. We paid south of $50 for two people so it's not cheap. The shakes were think and chunky! We liked that. We ordered a raspberry Oreo and it was real raspberries which makes or breaks it for us. The ice cream quality could have been a little higher or creamier but it was still a very decent shake! The fries and fry sauce were 100%! Just the right size fry to have a crisp outer layer without being soggy. When ordering we opted for the family size which we thought would come out heaping full of fries and feed the 4 of us just fine, but it was really only filled about 3/4 full (as was the second batch of fries we ordered so seems to be the norm) and was probably better suited for 2 people. We enjoyed the burgers. We loved the special sauce, all of our group enjoyed the tamed jalapeños on the burger. Pretty thin patty so the double was the way to go. They only stock American Cheese which is a minus for us because it just isn't yummy in my opinion. My burger came out wrong and I took it up to the window and they replaced it with the correct order quickly and were very apologetic. They let me keep the wrong order too so I was pleased with how they handled it. There's quite a few tables outside that were pleasant to sit at. It is a fun stop on a summers evening for sure! read more

Finally a real Burger Joint with awesome vibe, Let's start with the Fries, fried in Beef Tallow what else can you ask for? The Limeade ohhh the Limeade or how they call it "Fresh Lime" just that alone is going to make me comeback over and over, and of course the crown of the place, the Wagyu burger, juicy, soft and crunchy heck yeah at last a proper well cooked delicious burger in Provo, this will be my stop from burgers from now on. If I could give them 6 stars, I would! Ohhhh wait! I forgot about the music, it is perfectly curated it makes the Vibr desirable. Well done my friends, well done! read more

Got a single burger without jalapenos and single fry. Was very much looking forward to trying beef tallow fries and wagyu beef patty as they advertise. Unfortunately those aspects are simply hype. I already knew American wagyu is mostly just a name but I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt. Turned out it was just an average burger and fries, and not worth the price. I can get a better burger and much better deal just down the road at the creamery. read more

I gotta be honest here and I hope they improve off this feedback as I want them to succeed enough where I will go back. This has been on my mind all week so I gotta leave this review. I was super excited for this place as I grew up in Provo eating at Ripples. The vibe is great, very nostalgic, fun atmosphere. I'm rooting for Provo Burger, but here is my experience: As a parent I gotta say first, this food is EXPENSIVE. I bought basically half the food I get at In-n-out or Burger Supreme and it still cost more somehow?? We got the family size order of fries to feed two adults and two young little kids. "Family size" is not accurate. They should call it "large" or keep calling it "family" size and put way more fries in it. The bowl is big (that's great) but they filled it half way with fries and filled the rest of the bowl with sauce cups. It was enough fries for maybe 1-2 people, definitely not enough for a family. We all left hungry. That being said, they were very good fries. We got 3 burgers. My daughter took one bite and said it was gross and she was done - this does happen often (kids do this all the time) but she loves In-n-out burgers so comparing to that was a sad result. I was super excited as I've never had a "wagyu" burger, but it tasted like any normal smash burger. The bun was odd, not bad but odd, and my burger had very little sauce sadly and was a bit dry. I'd rate the burger as average (and expensive). We got a cookies and cream Oreo shake, it was good but as we got halfway through with it, it just became pure vanilla, no longer cookies and cream. They clearly didn't mix it well. Also it looks like a lot of shake but it isn't, they just put a normal cup inside a big cup. It's expensive. We sat at a table with a bunch of college kids. Two of them discovered their burgers were missing the beef patties. Probably just new cook mistakes, but that was bad and quite funny. They kindly fixed it. After a few bites one of the college kids whispered to another "I'd rather be at In-N-Out" which basically sums up our experience. Overall this is an expensive place, okay food, good environment, great service. Overall score is definitely not 5 stars like others have rated, but I want it to be. Id say it's 2.5 stars, but I'll round up. A lot of the mistakes you could say are because they are new so hopefully they improve. As of today, I'd go back if I was by myself and had money to blow, or if someone paid for my food. But until then I will be at Burger Supreme, Crown Burger, and of course, In-N-Out. PS the shirts are cool but you should put a burger in the hands of the guy skiing. Missed opportunity. read more

Amazing shakes, fantastic fries, and the burger is the best in Provo! Great prices portions and very nice team of employees!

Great burger and the fries were AMAZING!!! Kid at the register was super patient with the people in front of me who had 1 million questions about the menu, which has just one burger on it and one type of french fry. He knew all the answers and was super polite. Food was hot and fast. read more

Such great burgers! I love that they've turned this classic Provo destination (what use to be Ripple's drive thru) into something fresh and fun. read more

In just the last month that Provo Burger has been open, our family has collectively eaten there at least 10 times. We are beyond thrilled that it's in the neighborhood! It's fresh, great quality food. Yes, it's more expensive than In and Out, but it's way better (I never understood the hype about In and Out anyway). I do wish the shakes were more drinkable, and the cup in a cup thing is weird. (Do they always break through the bottom of the cup with the shake blender? Is that a throw back to The Phone Call?) I think they should knock a dollar off the cost of the shakes, use less custard and more milk, and put it in a paper cup. But really, the burger and fries can't be beat. Fancy Burger used to be the best burger around, but they've been bested by Provo Burger. And having them Just down the street is win win! read more

Like everyone else, I was excited to get burgers back into the Ripples location. That classic restaurant hasn't been duplicated, sadly. They had the best cheeseburgers in town, in my opinion. Back to Provo Burger-- Burger, fry, shake, soda-- simple menu, but left wishing there were more options. Everything is expensive, which didn't feel like it matched the product received. (See photos). It's hard to not compare burgers to other restaurants. Prices comparable to Chom, but smaller serving size for ($5) fries barely filled to the top of the tray. The $10 burger + bacon was decent sized for a single, but underwhelming taste-wise. $3.50 sodas and $5 fresh limes with no refills is crazy. $7.50 shakes are somehow common around here. Fry sauce had spices or something added, which I could personally do without. Might be the same special sauce they put on the burgers. It's an old school drive in experience, and the only burger spot In Edgemont. However, $16 for a burger and fries (no drink) could go a lot further elsewhere. read more

Burger and Fries 10/10 also tired the lime drink and it was delicious and refreshing. read more

Place is a scam. They got the entire order wrong. straight up not a single thing correct. But not only that, there was a tiny cup INSIDE the big milkshake cup . Way over priced and the order took forever to come. Please get better leaving bad reviews ain't a pleasure. read more

Expensive for what it is. The burger is also just okay, nothing great and the patty was thin.

Extremely good burger. highly recommend to anyone who has a chance to visit. good vibes as well.

Save your money, total rip off. Much better places for a more reasonable price. Burgers are thin AF for $8, fries come half full for $5, no refill on a $3.50 soda, come on! All just tasted average. read more
