Chill Japanese-American burger joint that has plenty to offer for those who wish for a sandwich or a taste of Japan.

Restaurant consistently fails to prepare the food as their menu indicates. Missing toppings, condiments (These are supposed to be "Special"), and preparation issues plague this restaurant. Sadly these were delivery and no way to get them to correct their errors.Attention to details is a very important but actually preparing food according to your menu should be basic.

Sadly these were delivery and no way to get them to correct their errors.You should know better when one of their primary profile photos is of their restroom. Attention to details is a very important attribute.

This little Japanese restaurant sits on Anderson Road next to a Goodwill. A lot of people come here for the burgers, but they actually have a lot more to offer such as sushi. I have included photos of the menu to give you a better idea. As we see so often, if you pay with a credit card, you can expect them to flip the screen over in hopes of a tip. There's enough seating inside for at the very most 50 people and 18 outside. I came in at noon on a Thursday and it was surprisingly fairly empty. My order came out in about 10 minutes, but there was some confusion as to what I had, so not everything came out at once and my burger had no cheese. I was not impressed with the sidewinder fries and definitely recommend you skip those. They were not cut from real potatoes, they were clearly preformed and previously frozen out of a bag. The onion rings were a little better as they were lightly breaded and expectedly on the greasy side. The Burger was a decent size and the semi sweet sauce they use was a nice touch, but it still lacked the wow factor. Nonetheless, I'd be willing to come back in the future to try some of the other menu items. A good acceptable 3 and a half to four star place. Plenty of photos to fulfill your curiosity.

I enjoyed this "burger speakeasy" inside ZEN. The concept is pure genius, and the execution is even better.I recently tried the Swagyu Cheeseburger, Chicken Katsu, sidewinder fries, and house-made Asian slaw, and the flavors blew me away. The Asian seasonings and sauces really take these dishes to the next level. The Swagyu burger was juicy and flavorful, and the chicken katsu was crispy and tender. The sidewinder fries were a fun twist on the classic, and the Asian slaw was the perfect refreshing accompaniment.The service was also excellent, with attentive and friendly staff who clearly take pride in their work.Good stuff! Check it out.

I had pretty low expectations for a burger pop-up; especially one in an Izakaya.I was massively and pleasantly surprised when I ordered the swagyu with cheese and the sidewinder fries. A ton of thought went into the burger - wagyu beef, a great bun, and then tonkatsu rather than ketchup (a nice reference to the Japanese culinary roots of the restaurant hosting the pop-up). The fries were delicious, especially with the tonkatsu sauce; I may have a problem and they would bottle it!Net net, if you go to hop doddy regularly - give this spot a try. The burger is actually better, and you can enjoy some old school anime while you eat!

Had the BTS burger, did not disappoint it was so good and to have a gluten free bun option was a plus. I wish I would've been able to order the fries because not only are they big but looked so good, I've had the almond slaw Instead. This was my first time having a Wagyu burger, all the rumors are true it was truly delicious!

I had the Wagyu katsu burger and it was great. Crispy and flavorful on the outside yet medium in the center. The flavors and textures go great together. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. The atmosphere and hospitality makes me want to come back.

Everything is delicious.Wagyu Burgers:Akuma Burger - 5/5Sides:Sidewinder Home Fries - 5/5I order a double akuma burger, and it was phenomenal. The patties were sooo juicy and flavorful.

I've had the Katsu sando several times and have never been disappointed-- plus, having a gluten-free bun option is always nice. The new BTS burger was my latest adventure, and the combo of the grilled cheese and mushrooms with bacon was amazing! No one talks about their MASSIVE fries (not sure why), because I would make a trip for the fries alone-- they're that good. And if there's another place in town where you can get an all-wagyu patty without having to pay over $20, I haven't found it yet.

The katsu chicken sandwich and the BTS Burger are two of my favorite lunches. And, the fries are amazing. Definitely give it a try.
