Elite Event: Super Duper Burgers

This was an AWESOME Unilocal event! I walked out of here absolutely stuffed. Super Duper burgers is incredible. All of the food was delicious and I will be back for seconds on a later date! :)

Amazing!
From the moment we were greeted all the way to being one of the winners at the end ;)
Staff was amazing and on top of everything!
This was my first Unilocal event and definitely not my last!
Thank you Candace and Donna for coming over to introduce and mingle for a bit.
Lots of amazing little gifts to bring home!

Fantastic event organized by Candice and the other Unilocal staff members!
There was so much food to go around. Beef burgers, bleu cheese beef burgers, chicken burgers, veggie burgers, cheesy garlic fries. I’m surprised I was able to sample everything. I didn’t expect to enjoy the veggie burger but it was phenomenal. I don’t usually go for seconds on a veggie item but for this one I did. Alcohol was available so I grabbed a tasty and mild pilsner to help wash down all the food. The soju spiked strawberry shakes were dangerous and delicious at the same time.
It was awesome being able to go to a Unilocal event like this and meet more new Unilocalers. I hope there are more events like these to come in 2016!

Our SB Fab Three did it… Again! This time at the newly opened Super Duper Burgers in Los Gatos.
I’m not a big burger gal… nor am I much a consumer of red meat, but I decided to check out this event since it’s a Unilocal event that I know will be fantastic. and my little one actually loves their burgers, shakes and fresh pickles. I had to see what the hype is about, glad I did too!
Upon checking in, we’re greeted, name-​tagged and directed to the seating area where we are first served refreshments: beer, wine or water. How wonderful you all had me in mind when choosing your drink menu?! Then came the fries, then the burgers, more burgers and even more burgers! I believe I had a burger and a half by the time the night ended. I actually only had their veggie burger and chicken sandwich which by the way were outstanding! Full of flavor especially when eaten with their Super Duper fresh, free house-​made pickles! Free, as in they were passing them around, yes… but if you wandered off to the middle of the restaurant — there are jars upon jars with them pickles that you can pick from and place into a neat little condiment tray for you to enjoy. Soooooo tart and surprisingly crisp too! I met a new Unilocalette, Andrea W., woot woot! We Unilocaled it up together and chatted most of the event… she’s Awesome. Cheers to new friends!
We met the GM, and shared some spiked milkshakes O. O
Oh, them spiked milkshakes and the things you can do with Soju…
Super Duper ended the night superbly with some sundaes for a night cap. (Say that ten times fast).
This event was Super. The staff, Duper! The burgers, well Super Duper!
Thank you once again to our SB head honchos: Candice, Jon and Donna for holding it down and delivering such a wonderful experience… Cannot wait for the next! xoxo

SUPER DUPER AWESOME Unilocal ELITE EVENT!
I love super duper, Unilocal schwag, fun times!
SUPER DUPER Candice!
Thank you for having me and organizing this great event!
SUPER DUPER yummy food!
Thank you Super Duper and staff for the endless flow of food!
SUPER DUPER Unilocalers!
It was wonderful meeting so many Unilocalers, esp Avni! :)
SUPER DUPER FULL!
I just couldn’t say no to a second helping of garlic fries! haha: P

I was done after the first hour, and the first round of food. Then they came by and told me there was another round of food! I had to unbutton the pants. :).
Everything tasted delicious, and major props to staff member Tiff for never neglecting us. We were sitting in the corner and she constantly came by to check on us to provide us with all the tasty treats.
The chipotle sauce for the fries were nice. And the veggie burger was good too. There was a nice crispiness to the patty.
The shakes were amazing! I will definitely have to come back for these :). Thank you everyone for helping to host a special Unilocal Event.

My first Unilocal elite event and it was well worth the wait! :D
The Unilocal team was super friendly and my friend and I chatted with Candice and Donna for a bit as they stopped by to introduce themselves to our table. Super Duper staff were also beyond friendly and attentive.
(see Unilocal review on super duper Los gatos location for food review– I didn’t know there was a separate review for events because «I’m new here» :P)
Good food, drinks, and vibes all around. Can’t wait for future events after experiencing what a success this one was! And to top it off, I left with a Unilocal flask – how cool!

I was very impressed with the food here. The burgers were all very tasty and I’d even go back for the chicken sandwich as well. What surprised me was them having spiked milkshakes. You can barely taste any alcohol. The service was also on it as well. Great staff!
Thank you for organizing Candance and crew.
The must try is the Strawberry milkshake! Tastes like a TEN dolla shake.

OK, Two words, Stuffed, and STUFFED! Ok, maybe we will just go with Double stuffed ;) The folks at Super Duper Burger put on one heck of a Unilocal Elite Event celebrating the opening of the second Super Duper in the bay area. Promptly at 6:30PM they had a half dozen eager staff members start rolling out the treats starting with some local wines and microbrews. Then two types of fries with tasty dipping sauces, 4 different burger bites, a chicken sandwich, and they even had «spiked» adult milkshakes to top it all off. It kept coming and I kept eating myself into a mini food coma along with my new Unilocal friends Giovanna R. and Andrea S.
The location is brand spanking new and the building looks like they just put the final coat of paint on it. Built from the ground up to house this sure to be a hit burger joint! The layout is spacious with ample seating all around with a giant condiment table in the middle featuring their homemade pickles.
Nice that a burger joint has tasty adult beverages… Besides having local wines and a great microbrew selection, they also offer homemade milkshakes «spiked» with soju (a korean rice wine). A nice and unique twist on a classic… For the event this night night they offered both «Strawberry» and «Cookies and Cream» in both «spiked» and standard versions.
For fries they offered two types for us to try. Plain fries with «Chipotle Sauce» (Aioli) and Garlic fries with «Super Sauce» (also Aioli but a garlic version). I loved them both but if I had it my way, it would have been the garlic fries with the Chipotle Sauce. The garlic fries were perfectly crisp and loaded with garlic, cheese, and herbs, very tasty!
Five sandwich offerings for the night kept coming. First was the «mini burger», the classic with all the standard toppings. The produce was all very fresh and all the sandwiches came with a sliver of their homemade pickles, YUM! Next came the «Cesar burger» with cesar sauce and white cheddar cheese. Next (don’t be scared) came the «Veggie Burger», please do not tell my friends how much I actually liked this one! A grilled chunky fresh veggie patty garnished with more raw veggies like cucumber to add to the textural delight. You are probably getting the STUFFED² picture by now right?! Next came the chicken sandwich that was doused in that yummy chipotle sauce I loved so much on the fries. Last but not least came the «Blue Cheese Burger», I typically avoid blue cheese as I’m not a fan of food eventually turning blue (you know what I mean) but I tried this one and it was pretty awesome. The blue cheese flavor was mild but giant chunks of mushrooms made this one a winner. All the burgers are from «Vegetarian fed» beef ground daily and served on artisan bread and you can taste the quality.
I have to say this was one of the best Unilocal Elite Events I have attend in a while. The staff at Super Duper were WAY on top of it. The food and drinks were delicious and just kept coming. We never had any trash on our tables as they kept coming by and asking to take away our waste. Even something as simple as a glass of water that I have moaned about some events lacking was always available. Thank you to the staff of Super Duper for a Super Duper fun time. Thank you to Candice (Who looked smokin hot!), Donna, and Jon from Unilocal for putting this one on!
I have been dreaming of going back to Super Duper and you should check them out too!

Thank you to Unilocal,Candice G., Super Duper Burgers, and Patti the GM, for my first Unilocal Elite Event! Also, shout out to the amazing staff who catered to our every need and did so with beautiful smiles and wonderful attitudes.
I couldn’t have been more thrilled it was at Super Duper Burgers because they’re one of my favorite burger joints! I’ve been to the other location at Valley Fair Mall, but I would much rather go to this location because of the parking and seating convenience.
I’ll admit I was quite nervous at first, but as soon as I walked through the door I was greeted with the warmest smile from Candice G! I grabbed my name tag, took a look at all the goodies lying around, and found a seat next to the lovely Sandra L.
Drinks:
— Alcoholic: I’m not much of a drinker so forgive me for vaguely stating that beer and wine were constantly being passed out (YES!!!). If I didn’t have the alcohol tolerance of a 15-​year-​old who never took a sip of alcohol in their life, I would have tried one of each. The highlight of all drinks was hands down the spiked milkshakes: Alcohol disguised in sweet, creamy frost that brought back fond memories of being a kid again — the ideal alcoholic beverage.
— Non-​alcoholic: Milkshakes! Out of the strawberry, cookies and cream, and chocolate strawberry, my favorite was the cookies and cream. I was hoping they had some sort of mint flavor as well — perhaps in the future.
Fries:
— Regular: Perfectly cut and deliciously crisp.
— Garlic: Best garlic fries I have ever had, ever! They were perfectly seasoned with fresh garlic, chopped parsley (?), and well-​aged cheese. No guilt was felt when I grabbed my third sample.
Sauces:
— Super sauce: If this was the sauce that came with the garlic fries, it was my favorite. A match made in burger heaven.
— Chipotle: Tangy, great punch of flavor to go with regular fries.
Burgers:
— Mini: You can never go wrong with the classic. I loved how the meat was cooked to medium and was dripping in flavorful meat grease.
— Veggie: Definitely appealing to the eye with huge, colorful chunks of corn, carrots, and cucumber. Not sure how I feel about the taste though. What can I say — I love my meat.
— Chicken: Chicken sandwiches/​burgers are usually bland, but that was definitely not the case here! I remember noting how the burger had a nice kick of flavor to it.
— Cesar: Eh, not that memorable.
— Blue cheese: Holy bananas!!! BEST BURGER I HAVE EVER TASTED. The blue cheese sauce along with the sauteed mushrooms and onions was mouth watering. I’d come back for this baby any day.
Dessert:
— Regular chocolate & vanilla swirled: Light and sweet.
— Dipped vanilla ice cream: I love dipped ice cream. This treat brought me right back to when I was a 10 year old kid at Frosty Freeze.
I loved that the event had a contest which allowed us Unilocalers to put our photo-​taking skills to use. Thank you for picking my photo as one of the winners. I promise to cherish my prizes!
Note to self:
— Pace yourself (learn to say no to seconds… or at least thirds…)
— Bring more cash next time to tip
— Check back tomorrow for typos

Great job Candace G., Donna T., Jon S. and the staff at Super Duper in Los Gatos! It was a great foodie YE Event! Totally one with the most food so far! The staff at Super Duper were beyond generous! Man, it was hard too inhale for O2 after all that… 0_​o
The burgers (and wine) are all organic and super flavorful! My personal favorite was the chicken sandwich, but that’s just because I prefer chicken over beef any day ;). The veggie burger was a bit too gritty and oat tasting for me. As for their shakes, wow! They were spiked with some soju! Yup, yes yes — making them fantastically delicious! We also had regular fries and garlic fries with their special sauce… oh boy. Not to mention, we were bombarded with drinks! Alcohol that is. Wine, beer, more wine, more beer, and some water =). As if we couldn’t be stuffed any more, we had soft serve ice cream to top it off!
There you have it, a successfully food filling event! Visit your Super Duper near you! Pricing may be a bit higher than your typical burger joint, but it’s good to treat yourself once in a while, especially when you know everything that enters your mouth will be wholesome (considering you portion properly ;). Enjoy! =D

5 Stars as far as a Unilocal Elite Event goes. Thank you Candice, Jon, & Donna for another wonderful and fun event.
Thanks to the General Manager and your staff of Super Duper Burgers in Los Gatos for taking care of us Elites tonight in the most attentive way possible.
Their signage will not be available for a couple more months! If you know where the new Philz Coffee shop is in LG, then you’d find Super Duper Burger with ease as it is in the same shopping area.
There was an abundance of burgers. The Veggie burgers were a great surprise to many Elites tonight. The mini beef burger was tasty. The chicken burger was excellent.
The Spiked Shakes were soooooooo good! And I can’t stop saying how UNUSUAL it is to see wine and spiked shakes in a burger restaurant!
Great catching up with fellow Elites whom I had met from my first Elite Event a few years ago as well as seeing frequent Elites and also meeting new Elites for the 1^st time.

This was yet another great event. I crammed into a seat next to a cool cat named Randy and finally got to meet the lovely Gio.
The treats just kept on coming, round after round:
Fries with chipotle sauce, garlic cheese fries, white wine, Pilsner, veggie burgers, strawberry shakes spiked with soju, blue cheese burgers, Racer 5 beer, chicken burgers, Oreo shakes… Everything was delicious.
The Unilocal crew was spot-​on with keeping everyone happy and full to the gills. And the SD staff were all smiles. Even though I didn’t win, there was a fun Instagram contest that kept us all clicking away in between noms.
I will definitely be back for more veggie burgers and garlic fries.
Thanks for making another fantastic event!

Super Duper Burgers’ burgers are indeed super duper! I had so much food from this event. Such food coma. But such yum!
FRIES! Crispy outside, soft inside. It was the first item I ate, and it was a fantastic start. The dipping sauce was yumz. GARLIC FRIES were delicious too! The garlic flavor was awesome, and I loved the FRESH parmesan cheese.
BURGERS! All the beef is organic?! Yes please! The beef was so juicy and tender, it was probably what made the burgers awesome. The bread was also good; soft yet crunchy, and sturdy enough to hold the burger together. I also liked the pickle that came with every single burger. There was a counter in the middle of the restaurant with jars of fresh pickles, haha! I had at least (read: more than) one of each type of burger, they were all so good. Blue cheese burger had MUSHROOMS which I loved, and the blue cheese had a great flavor. It wasn’t hidden in any of the other flavors in the burger, and it was great. The Caesar burger had great sauce, and the cheeseburger was yummy too! Oh oh, not to forget the CHICKEN SANDWICH! The bread was crunchy and light, perfectly toasted, and the chicken was good, not dry at all! It was also SPICY, which I absolutely loved. Yuuum! I have to give a big fat shoutout to the awesome VEGGIE BURGER though. I never knew veggie burgers could taste so good, but I’m going to start eating veggie burgers more for sure (also because I’m not a big fan of meat). I had so many of these. The outside of the patty was crunchy, and the texture was wonderful. I love love love the veggie burger! Seriously, I think I’m on the quest for good veggie burgers closer to home after eating this veggie burger, and I’m not even that big fan of burgers in the first place!
SHAKES! I don’t drink, so I had the non-​spiked strawberry milkshake. It was deliiiicious! Not too sweet, and very creamy. Yum! I could taste the fresh strawberry pieces in the strawberry sauce, it was awesome. I was really impressed by the not-​overly-​sweet factor. Yum!
ICE CREAM SUNDAE! I got the strawberry with cookie crumbs on top. Again, awesome not-​overly-​sweet factor and amazing creaminess. The cookie crumbs added a great crunch and texture to the sundae, and it was yummy! (I think the theme of this night can safely be summarized by the word YUMMY — by counting the number of «yum» words in this review, I think this statement is justified.)
Shoutout to PATTI for all the wonderful information about ORGANIC! everything and thanks to all the STAFF for continuously feeding us with yummy food, offering drinks, and taking away our trash. Best service ever! And of course, shoutout to the awesome CANDICE for putting the event together. Looking forward to the next one!

Nom nom nom! Eat like a boss and there is no diet going on today!
Unilocal elite events are always kick ass. There were plenty of Beers, Wine, Soda, Water and shakes!
We started with the Garlic fries with with super duper sauce (creamy mayo based) and then served regular fries with chipotle sauce — yum — light kick to it. Try the garlic fries dipped in chipotle sauce! Delish!
For the burgers, we had mini super duper burger with cheese — so moist!!! The Veggie burger was good. There are large bits of visible veggies.
The Caesar burger (secret menu item) was ok. The chicken burger has a nice kick to it. The blue cheese burger was delish! You need like mushrooms though cuz there’s a lot in the blue cheese burger! The blue cheese burger was definitely better and more flavorful than the chicken.
Patti runs this joint and she explained the origin of the meats, dairy, and local beers and wine. These are organic shakes made with l Strauss products. We had strawberry, chocolate, vanilla, chocolate with strawberry soju shake (secret menu item), cookies and Cream soju shake was YUm! The shakes are super thick here!
And for the finale, we finished off with two sundaes– swirl ice cream Sundae and swirl ice cream with hardened chocolate!!!

Really enjoyed this Elite event! A lot of great food followed by a more than adequate drink selection and desserts!
ALCOHOL & DRINKS /​Good selection of wine and beer. I didn’t drink any today but they had an options for people like me, too — soda and water.
FRIES /​The garlic fries were quite tasty, and I also enjoyed the Super Sauce that it came with. The regular fries didn’t wow me but the chipotle mayo sauce — yum!
MINI BURGER /​One of the standard food items here, but mini sized. Juicy and flavorful!
VEGGIE BURGER /​I really liked it! It stands out from the standard veggie patty because there’s corn pressed into it. The cucumber was also a nice touch, and the amount of sauce was perfect — It didn’t overwhelm the flavors of the ingredients but added just enough moisture for a good, juicy texture.
SPIKED COOKIES AND CREAM SHAKE /​Great flavor! The soju wasn’t too strong at all, which was perfect — and the sprinkling of cookie crumbs added (again) a nice texture to each sip.
SPIKED STRAWBERRY SHAKE /​A bit sweeter than the cookies and cream, and a little smoother and creamier. A great palate cleanser before the second round of food and dessert!
BLUE CHEESE BURGER /​A little more oily than I liked. But the proportions of blue cheese to burger was perfect — again just enough to get a great flavor with each mouthful.
CHICKEN BURGER /​Served with a ciabatta bun, which was nice and crispy to contrast with the burger innards! The chicken was reasonably tender, They served the burger with the chipotle sauce, which unfortunately overwhelmed the rest of the flavors. Overall okay but not my favorite.
SOFT SERVE YOGURT /​They served the chocolate and vanilla swirl with crispy homemade cookies and strawberry sauce, and the vanilla with oreo cookie crumbs. The swirl had a lot more flavors going on, but the vanilla yogurt was surprisingly thick but very light at the same time.
Overall I had a great time! The other Unilocal Elites I sat with were super friendly and had some great stories to tell about other events they had been to in previous months and years.

Another amazing Elite event put on by the most fabulous Candice G! Super Duper Burger hosted a Super Duper tasting event — thanks to manager Patti and all the welcoming staff tonight!
I’m not a drinker, but I appreciated that Super Duper kept the drinks coming for those who enjoy it! Very generous pours of all their wines and beers made for lots of happy Unilocalers ;)
Onto the foods! I liked the garlic fries — with aged cheddar on top. YUM! I didn’t like the dipping sauce, but these have so much flavor that it’s not needed. Would get this again!
Mini burger — juicy, tasty, cooked nicely. Would get this again!
Veggie burger — I often like a veggie burger, but this one just didn’t strike my fancy for some reason. Too much bell pepper maybe?
Spiked strawberry shake — this is dangerous! As I mentioned, I don’t drink but I do like ice cream so I gave this a try. I didn’t really taste the alcohol, so um… yeah, dangerous! ;)
Caesar burger — meh, I don’t really like sauces on my burgers — especially when it’s quality meat that you want to taste, so this was a miss for me.
Blue cheese burger — this came with grilled mushrooms and grilled onions on top as well, and I really liked those!
Chicken sandwich — this was my least favorite of the night — the chipotle aoili was way too spicy for my wuss palate, and drowned out anything else (including what was probably some awesome ciabatta bread!). It’s a shame, because I would typically order the chicken sandwich for my son but we’ll have to skip that here.
Soft serve sundae with homemade cooke crumbles — mine also had a strawberry sauce on it, and this was good. I really wanted to try the dipped ice cream cones instead, so I’d likely skip the sundae and shake on a return visit to go for a dip.
Overall, I learned that I like their simple burger (no sauce, please), and would also probably substitute the ciabatta bread on it. Grilled onions would be a must, and I really liked their aged cheddar. Garlic fries were super tasty too. Will have to return soon!

A Unilocal Elite Event where I left satisfied and thinking about my next venture back. The communal tables adorned with Unilocal swag and decorated with balloons, attentive staff serving up delicious burgers AND veggie burgers (I know!), of chicken sandwiches, fries, and desserts, and the beverage selection all lent itself to a wonderful evening. Kudos on adding the social media game-​play to the event as well. It added a level of competitiveness of which I’m always grateful. :)
I’m always surprised when the stand out item is something I would never normally choose. The VEGGIE BURGER was really quite good textually and in flavor. The crunch from the corn combined with the beans’ crispy edges were only amplified by the addition of the cucumber which snapped with each bite. While it’s not the best veggie burger I’ve ever eaten, it certainly is one of the best on the west coast.
I’d also like to take a second to talk about the PICKLES. Homemade, they are reminiscent of a Claussen pickle (my favorite), but a little sweeter. If you didn’t notice, there was a huge pickle bar down the center of the building for you to yummy down on, guys. Pickle lovers, rejoice! Pickle haters, keep walking.
Another YEE for the books. So happy for a No +1 event too. I really enjoy getting to know more Unilocalers and sharing the latest foodie news that maybe hasn’t quite made it to a review yet. :)
Thanks for a great event!

My first Elite Event since moving to San Jose and what a great event it was! A big thank you to Candice and everyone else at Unilocal that helped make this event a success! The check in process was easy as can be since all the name tags were already made up, you just had to find your badge and you were in!
There were tons of Unilocal goodies on all the tables, plenty for everyone. The friendly servers made their way through all the tables so you didn’t have to worry about clamoring to get a taste of everything, the food just came to you!
Super Duper Burger had a variety of wines, beers, soda and water being passed around as soon as you came in. I had a delicious Sauvingon Blanc. Patti, the manager made her way around to all the tables to meet everyone and to tell us more about Super Duper Burger. She told us all their wines were organic, and all the food is fresh and locally sourced.
Though I do enjoy vegetarian meals from time to time, I wasn’t super excited about the veggie burger. I am so glad I tried it, surprisingly it was one of my favorites of the evening. The burger had a great flavor, and a little bit of crunch to it which I loved. I would definitely get this again.
We also tried the Blue cheese burger, which was good but covered in mushrooms which I personally don’t love. If you are a fan, you will like this burger! It had plenty of yummy blue cheese flavor. The Caesar burger was also good, though it didn’t taste that much different than the standard burger to me. The chicken sandwich is a great option if you don’t eat beef, it had a nice spicy spread on it that gave it a bit of a kick! I think it’s the same sauce they serve their regular fries with.
Several shakes were passed out to include the spiked cookies and cream, strawberry and spiked chocolate. They were all really creamy and smooth, it’d be hard pressed to pick a favorite!
Such a fun evening! Thanks for hosting us Super Duper Burgers!
