A chain called Burgerim opened up a new store nearby. Anyone hear of this joint? Any good? I gotta know goons.

This case of an intraperitoneal zucchini is unusual, and does raise questions as to how hard one has to push a blunt vegetable to perforate the rectum.
Hey you. You're finally awake. You were trying to order at the drive-thru right?

They have a website and it looks like they're trying to do the trendy burger thing. But eh could be good who knows.

They’re doing the trendy burger thing but with sliders. I have one near me that took over a year and a half to open and will probably close within 6 months. I haven’t been there yet.

Yeah I've never had sliders that didn't make me go "this would've been just fine as a regular burger." I don't get the appeal of baby burgs.

A slider size patty is the perfect size to make little burgers from Kings hawaiian rolls.

Dog Haus just leaves 4 of them connected to make their burgs and it works pretty well IMO.

Its alright. The big selling point is thr variety of meats and such for your sliders. Also, they aren't open on the weekends so... Don't go then

Their meat variety is also pretty lame. Like there is no way they have wagyu there all the time. They have decent little burgs but their meat selection seems like a scam to me.

Burger IM? Yo went there and it was good. But I would rate them as gourmet burgers / "fast casual", so not allowed here imo

I gotta admit I'm a little skeptical of any place that has burgs where they make a point of saying they got different aiolis on them. Like there's nothing wrong with aiolis but if you see everything is an aioli and there's no mayo in sight anywhere it seems like a good indicator that their gimmick is "We're trendy and cool!!!"

That’s what I’m saying with them saying they have Wagyu beef. Like wagyu is extremely pricey and isn’t just everywhere. So how they just have it at every Burgerim franchise just seems weird to me.

Ugh I feel like a burger is a total waste of good beef like wagyu. I def get what you mean. To me the glory of the burg is its ability to make plain old hamburger meat taste really great. Why the hell would you use wagyu or dry aged beef or something, gently caress.

I will confess that the two times I've been there, I have not gotten beef. I went with lamb the first time, and vegetarian the second.

It reminds me of a classy white castle in terms of the shape of the burgers though you can get regular burgers there. There are a lot of options regarding topping, bun type, burger beef type and that's kinda cool. The fries are just potato circles but that's ok.

I think they just declared for Bankruptcy but it's worth a look at least once.

Those onion rings look pretty serious. Sucks about being a franchise scam though, we had a venture capital mob turn a bunch of local chains into that sort of setup and collapse them over the last few years.

As described in Isaiah, he's 400 feet tall, all kosher beef, with seven wings and a stack of chipotle onion rings for just $7.99.

I checked the website for their hours and I'm not even sure if the BurgerIM near me is even open or if it will ever open. The website says 'Coming Soon.'

I'm going to find out this weekend anyway. I'll upload a video of my adventure either way.

Huh, I guess that explains why the one near me suddenly closed down.

I live close to the Burbank one that just shut down one day last year. Overpriced burgers, decent garlic aioli fries though.
