Topz - Orange

: Topz "Healthier" Cheeseburger

Topz claims itself to be the “Healthier Burger Grill”. Other then they use angus beef and trans-fat free buns, there isn’t a difference to any other burger place. Oh did I mention you can get cheese on your burger too? But wait you can’t order bacon, that must be what makes it healthier.

If you can’t tell by now I wasn’t really that impressed with Topz. Their burgers are nothing special. Heck they don’t even use all fresh ingredients, I saw the cook toss on two frozen patties on the grill. The meat they use is ground to fine so the burgers have no consistency to them. Also I know people are going to see the menu and go, “Air Baked Fries!” If you like french fries that taste stale then order them, I’ve had better oven baked fries.

Topz really has nothing going for it, except for their Garlic Ketchup, but I already determined I can make that at home myself. If you are looking for a delicious burger call me up, I can make something 100 times better then what they conjure up at Topz.

Don’t waste your time, if you do, don’t say I didn’t warn you.

This review is coming from someone who’s idea of a great burger is from Islands, a sub-par chain restaurant. Topz makes great burgers, and they are certainly better that PK burgers. Their fries are good, and out of the 4 times ive eaten there, ive never had a stale fry. You cant trust this review of a “burger” restaurant, when they didn’t even eat one of the burgers…

@typhoon:
Unfortunately Topz disappointed me, I really did want to like it, but there was absolutely nothing special with the thing. The bun was just like the wheat buns you can get from a grocery store and the meat was frozen and tasted like mush.

I’m glad you are checking out my site, so don’t get me wrong, we just have a difference of opinion, but I believe a great burger is FRESH meat, with a patty made by hand, Topz doesn’t do that.

I’m not sure where you are reading that I didn’t eat a burger, or if you are trying to imply that I have never had a burger at Islands, but I have. I like their burgers quite a bit, they aren’t the best, but I think they are one of the better chain burgers that are out their.

I know my burgers. There is nothing special about this place. It really is not healthier, unless you think a wheat bun makes it so. The fries are the same you can get at the store, frozen by Oreida. The Oreida fries are cooked in the oven like these. They do have less fat, but, they do have oil in them like the TOPZ fries. They just are not deep fried. Meat cooked on a grill, blah, blah, blah. There marketing will probably help business, but I don’t see this as a low calorie alternative.
