I stopped by Bagger Dave's, craving for a burger and for a first time visitor, it was an okay experience.
Our server, Joe, was very nice, chill, and informative in giving suggestions from the menu. The scenery is relaxed and I like how they have a wall dividing the dining area and the bar.
For appetizers, I ordered the parmesan truffle fries and cheese curds. The parmesan fries were a bit underwhelming. The cheese wasn't even melted on the fries, just sprinkled over them. When eating the fries, they'd fall off. The truffle aioli sauce was what made it enjoyable. I suggest getting regular fries and ask for the sauce, it'll save you a couple of dollars. The cheese curds were crispy on the outside and still hot enough inside to stretch it in between bites.
For entrees, we ordered the B.O.M. Burger and Train Wreck w/ onion rings. The BOM burger was okay. When I first got it there were a bunch of white onions and I had to remove a handful, and the burger didn't have as much bacon onion marmalade on it. Other than that, the burger was juicy, the bites with the bacon onion marmalade were delicious, and dipping the burger in the leftover truffle aioli from the fries made it more delicious. The Train Wreck burger was good, but it is a messy burger to eat. You do have the option to get an over easy egg instead of sunny side up. I think the sunny side egg was more enjoyable and flavorful. The onion rings were okay, not seasoned, and the fried batter didn't seem as crispy as it looked.
Would I come back here again? Maybe. Our waiter told us we have the option to alter our burgers, for example replacing the beef patties with turkey patties. I'd be willing to come back and see how their turkey burgers go and try their truffle aioli sauce with different sides again. read more
