Tonyburgers

These burgers are great. Some of the juiciest burgers that taste homemade… like mom used to make. You pick the burger weight and the toppings (some are a little extra, like bacon, fried egg or avocado) and they custom make a burger for you.
Tends to be a little pricy once you get a burger, fries and a drink though. $ 10 for lunch seems like lot.

I eat here several times a month and always have a good experience. Their shakes are one of my favorite things. I always get the mushroom burger with swiss. Service friendly and my only down fall for them is that I’ve been in there several times when the tables and booths were dirty and haven’t been cleaned. I’d like to see them take a bit more pride in the seating area.

I’ve had Tonyburgers a few times over the last year and I just don’t get the huge appeal; it seems like a ripoff of Five Guys.
The burger is a build your own with pretty standard toppings and their meat is a three meat blend, but it honestly doesn’t taste any different than the usual burger you could get anywhere else. Tonyburger seems to also follow the seemingly Utah trend of salting the meat to the point where it seems like they have a pipeline to the store from the Salt Flats.
I really enjoy their fries, I am a really big fan of Shoestring Fries, but again with the salt. I don’t like having to pause every three seconds to brush my hands off. I have resorted to using a fork here now to avoid that.
I love their shakes. All of the different ones that I have had there have all been great, specifically their Caramel one. But their chocolate and cookies and cream are fantastic choices as well.
Overall, Tonyburgers isn’t a bad place, but I’d rather go to a chain where they use less salt on everything and the burgers taste better.

I’ve tried Tonyburgers several times in the past couple months (my sister really likes it!). But I just don’t get the huge appeal. The burgers are good, not great, but good. It is a build your own combination burger with your standard toppings… the only non-​standard toppings are pickled jalapenos, grilled onions, swiss cheese, or BBQ sauce. So nothing like pineapple or blue cheese or anything more exotic.
The thing is, I am really disappointed in their fries. They were voted as best fries by Salt Lake Magazine but I don’t get it. Of the last 3 times I have been to Tonyburgers, all 3 times I have ended up with cold and limp fries. Not good!
I understand their shakes are good but I have never tried them.
The one thing I like about Tonyburgers (vs other burger joints) is their rewards program. Each time you fill up a punch card you graduate to the next level of punch card which gives you greater rewards. Genius and generous.
But honestly, I would prefer to go to a 5-​guys chain restaurant for better burgers and better fries. Tonyburgers is a place i want to like, I’ve just had consistently average experiences and I don’t think it is worth returning — unless my sister wants to go.

Maybe we came on a bad night. Service was pretty slow. It was a Friday night, the place was packed, and there was one person taking orders for a very long line of people.
We paid $ 30 for the WORST meal ever. The wedge salad sucked. It was all lettuce, with a tiny sprinkling of flavorless tomatoes and onions and weird, miniscule bacon bits. My husbands burger crumbled into tiny pieces. The only high spot was the strawberry coconut shake, but it cost $ 4.59 for what I consider a small shake.
Blah.

Was studying next door at 3 Cups for the first time and began to crave some burgers. Fortunately, I remembered a sign for some burger joint located next door… called Tonyburger? Taking it as a sign, I knew I had to give it a try. There are so many burger joints in Utah that admittedly, I was a little skeptical at first.
The menu is simple as it should be. The Little Tony is (¼lb) and Big Tony is (1/​3lb). I ordered the Big Tony, added another patty for 2 bucks, added a fried egg for a dollar and added the Southern Kick Ranch which sounded delicious. I’m in the middle of a diet where I am fooling myself into thinking that I’m on a diet by foregoing fries so the burger was all I got.
Honestly, the burger was delicious. Maybe because I was really hungry eating a 2/​3lb burger, but the addition of the egg and the Southern Kick Ranch sauce really made me a fan of this place and if I’m ever back studying next door, I will definitely be back!
