    Cheese Fries don't seem to travel well. Pass if you're getting them to-go.

    The fries and vanilla shake were just okay. Low-budget ambience. Overall, Trueburger did not live up to the hype.

    This place is overrated. Kronnerburger and Clove & Hoof are much better for high end. For a regular burger place like this just go to Ahn's quarter pound down the street.

    Burger patty was small, flat, and overcooked. I asked for a lettuce wrap. Instead of wrapping the burger, they just put it on a piece of lettuce. I ordered a burger, not a salad.
