JerryBuilt Burgers on Holcombe

Don't eat here if you want an exceptional hamburger. Good buns from Three Brothers Bakery, yes. Mostly crispy sweet potato fries made from potatoes cut on-site, yes. Tempting milkshakes made with Blue Bell ice cream, yes. But when it comes to the burgers, no. They were salty, skinny patties with very little flavor and limited free and optional toppings, when compared to Five Guys. The two soft drink machines allow you to custom blend your drink, which is a real kid pleaser. They also have a gimmicky hand cleansing machine that drenches your hands, which you then must towel dry. The kids love this too, but give me an eco-friendly squirt of Purell anytime. The workers were friendly and the place was clean and attractive, albeit quite noisy. This is their first week of business, so I will cut them some slack as they work out the kinks, such as the awkward flow of customers coming in from two directions and converging on the ordering counter, and the doubling up of our order on drinks and fries. I suggest they also work on the burgers.
