Best spicyish burger: Grindhouse Killer Burgers
March 8th, 2010 · 5 Comments
The best burger with a kick is the Apache burger and you can only find it here. The patty is juicy and tasty. Joined in a pillow-soft bun by spicy friends: house roasted green chiles, grilled onions, and pepper jack cheese. It’s not really spicy but there’s a considerable heat to it. Happy burger.
All the other burgers are good, too. Except for the turkey burgers which tasted like steamed fake meat (sorry, @tonetoatlanta). Meh. Fries are good. Onion rings have too much batter. Sweet potato kettle chips are good.

Eli– it’s fake meat. It’s steamed. It’s gross. Now let’s go get a real burger, ok?

The food is great, but the attitude of the employees suck. I was just at the Sweet Auburn Curb Market location and essentially had to walk off without placing my order.
Here’s the scenario: After standing at the counter for an extended period of time, I was finally told by the server (a big burly middle-aged bearded guy who always wears a baseball cap), that I was being ignored because I was on my cell. I responded by saying “sorry, but I’ve been standing here for a while…perhaps you should put up a sign that says no cell phones at counter.” And what does bearded potbelly guy do? He turns to a visiting friend and says “try working here for a day and see if you like it”. Funny? Not really. But I shrug this off and just ask “do you want to take my order or not”, which he proceeds to do…but it doesn’t stop there, because halfway through my order he turns to his friend and says “she should decide whether she wants a phone or food…phone or food.” And to add insult to injury, he says to his friend “And can you believe she wants a cup of ice with that?” and literally slams my cup of ice on the counter. This, of course, was followed by a shared nervous laughter between him and his embarrassed friend. My thought “boy did I really want one of those big juicy burgers”, but then the rational part of my brain decided that I would NOT spend hard-earned money at an establishment that doesn’t respect its customers. That was the breaking point for me…and I’m certainly not going back.
Well, I guess I must continue along with my quest for the next best burger in town, which I’m sure will be a place that knows that a great burger can taste even greater when it’s being served with great customer service!!!

Grindhouse is so close to GSU so walking over for burgers during lunch has been the norm for me. I have never been treated poorly here and I feel for how you were treated. Maybe a trip to the Piedmont location is warranted?
