Read More On Citysearch Citysearch User 2/6/2010 - Great Burgers and Atmosphere!I love the burgers here. I decided to try them after they made the Top 50 list in the Texas Monthly magazine. My husband and I are determined to try all 50 burgers and so far, this has been our favorite. The only negative is the inconsistency in food quality and mediocre service. I live in Houston but will travel to Dallas on the weekend just to get a burger from this place. Sometimes when I...
Read More On Citysearch londie1 1/2/2010 - good but second to..........My friends and I decided to find the best burger in Dallas. TWBC came in a close second however Angry Dog was a favorite with all.
TWBC has unique burgers but when it came down to the meat the AD was more juicy.
Both give you a lot for your money. Good deals!!

Read More On Citysearch riprock 7/24/2009 - Good food but bad serviceHeard about this place on Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives on the Food Channel. On a recent trip to Dallas for a visit went to this place on a Friday night. Line was out the door and took approx 45 minutes to get through and place our order. Bar would not serve anybody until reached end of line so couldn't drink a beer while we waited in line. Burger was ordered medium rare and came out medium well....
Read More On Citysearch skipchavez 6/21/2009 - What's All the Hype About?My wife and I had read nothing but good things about the Twisted Root Burger Co. (in Deep Ellum), and being self-proclaimed burger connoisseurs, we were really excited to check it out. They've been nominated for best burger, best fries, best onion rings, and best restaurant value in Dallas, by several publications and websites. Unfortunately, on our visit, they didn't live up to the praise that t...
Read More On Citysearch Texasfoodie 6/9/2009 - stood in a long line in the rain!!While driving down Commerce on a rainy Saturday afternoon my husband and I noticed this long winding line of people who didn't seem to mind waiting, to get in the Twisted Root Burger Co. and seeing this I immediately wanted to eat there so we parked and the long line quickly dwindled. I don't hold the parking against them since their job is to make premium burgers not to provide premium parking ...
Read More On Citysearch Foodie4life 5/16/2009 - Richardson Location - don't botherI have no idea what the original location is like, but we will never go back to the new Richardson place. Limited seating, plain burgers - not cooked to order and the mushrooms were from a CAN!!! Frozen curly fries? Are you kidding me? Still wondering what all the hype was about?? We went on a Friday night. Note - if you do go, send one of your party into the dining room while you wait in l...
Read More On Citysearch daskds123 4/3/2009 - Amazing burgersWow...the burgers here are F'ing great... the sides are excellent also. The staff is pretty cool; expect a wait during lunch most days though because this place is pretty popular. Parking can be a pain, but it's free during the lunchtime hour still if you can find it.
Read More On Citysearch Citysearch User 3/16/2009 - BEST Hamburgers in Dallas by far!!!Honestly, hands down THIS is the place to get the best burger in Dallas. My hubby and I were living at the Deep Ellum Lofts for a yr and this place is just a few blocks from there and we went alot. I recommend the Blue Cheese & Jalapeno Burger for those who like spice (I just take out the jalapenos cause I'm a wimp..lol) The meat is soo juicy and fresh!! Sweet potato chips are delicious, as well ...

Read More On Citysearch Citysearch User 2/18/2009 - Awesome burgers.There is something different about Twisted Root, and their burgers are great.
To the guy that mentioned poor service. I went in the middle of the day, and they were VERY busy with lunch clientele of all sorts. Families, businessmen, and everything in between were dining there.
The service I received was great. Smiles all around, very helpful and they seemed eager to please. Customers looked h...
Read More On Citysearch Connoisseur305 1/31/2009 - terrible serviceI don't really have much to say about this place. Because we didn't get a chance to eat! We stopped here after seeing them on citysearch. We walked in on a weekday around 130-2. If I remember correctly they closed at 230 and boy could you feel that when we walked in. The way you order was a turn off very fuddruckerish. No one greeted us no one said nothing. They looked at us like they had ...
Read More On Citysearch oj08 1/31/2009 - Love Those Pickles!Who ever heard of a spicy, cruncy pickle? This place is great! You can get a regular burger, but with all of the gourmet toppings why would you? Fantastic burger, and fun downtown location. You even get to be a star!
Read More On Citysearch Citysearch User 12/1/2008 - The absolute best. Period.All I can say is super... duper... YUM.
My mouth is watering just thinking about it.
Just wish they would move it out of Deep Ellum... This place deserves better.
Read More On Citysearch jseven7 11/17/2008 - Great Burgers Unique TwistSitting right in the middle of Deep Ellum this is the burger place to be. The burgers are always juicy and full of flavor. The twisted condiments make the burgers zestier. The daily Twisted Root Beer flavor is always an adventure. (The almond was decent the cinnamon not so good.)
Read More On Citysearch Citysearch User 8/10/2008 - Unique burger restaurant but average burgersThe restaurant's concept is pretty neat. They make hand make everything from their own condiments, teas, rootbeers, pickles, and ice cream. The interior is pretty neat too. The staff is very friendly. The food was just ok. The burger meat was decent but the bun was not to my liking. The bread felt and tasted "dough like" like the buns were not baked long enough. Their fries and fried gree...
Read More On Citysearch ILuvFood82 7/22/2008 - Yes! Best burger in Dallas!Despite some of the negative (and, yes, that's always going to happen) reviews, I personally think, Twisted Root Burger Co. does indeed, serve the best burger (and, burger experience) in Dallas!
Plus, I love their home made root beers, flavored ice teas, and decadent home made ice creams.
Read More On Citysearch Twinwillow 7/21/2008 - Beware The Hype IndeedAfter reading several of these reviews, suspicious and otherwise, I?d have to agree with those who found the bang-to-hype ratio a bit outta whack at Twisted Root Burgers. Top 100 restaurant? Best of? Whoa, you might wanna tap the brakes a bit on that. I mean, c?mon, the burgers were decent enough in a Chili?s sort of way. They were about average in poundage for the price, however, they tasted uns...
Read More On Citysearch royaltaster 5/21/2008 - Great burger jointI went to the Twisted Root today. This was my second time. The first time was with coworkers during a conference. This time I brought my family. Need I say more? Burgers are excellent, fries are amazing and the onion rings are TO DIE FOR - very "stick to your ribs" kind of food. We didn't try the ice cream this time but the root beer and home made condiments were wonderful! Next time we ar...
Read More On Citysearch rebaru 5/3/2008 - Overrated Burger Joint - Warning: Suspicious Reviews on THIS SITEBeware reviews of Twisted Root Burger Co. posted here. After visiting it -- and having a less-than five-star experience -- I took a look back at the dozens of raves that prompted me to check it out in the first place. On closer inspection, many of these posts struck me as having been written by the same person and, in fact, read more like press releases. Many were even submitted on the same day: ...
Read More On Citysearch CharlieMarlow 2/28/2008 - Best burgers I've ever had!Honestly I've never had such a great hamburger in my life. Not only that but the prices were right on and you couldn't have gotten a better meal for such a reasonable price! The service was wonderful as well! I highly recommend this restaraunt!
Read More On Citysearch jrgolfpro 1/14/2008 - Best Burger - No Question!I'm an expert on Burgers - honestly an expert - and thisTHANKFULLY is no cookie cutter burger spot. The two main parts of a burger: the meat and the bread are Unbeatably Fresh - you can tell! On top of that--everything else has it's own AMAZING twist. I come here for lunch or after a crazy night and the food combined with the atmosphere make this place the best in Dallas. The homemade sauces and ...
Read More On Citysearch anchisies 1/11/2008 - I prefer Angry DogMy friend I performed a very "scientific" review of the Twisted Root and Angry Dog. We ate the exact same burgers at both locations and both agreed that the Angry Dog burger was superior. The freshly grated cheddar cheese made the difference.
Read More On Citysearch houssic 7/14/2007 - Best Burgers in DallasThis place definitely serves the best burgers in Dallas. All of the ingredients are very fresh and are high quality. The servings are large, the service is quick, the place is always clean, and the atmosphere in pleasant. Aside from the burgers, they have excellent shakes (the peaches and cream is my favorite). They used to serve hand battered onion rings, but stopped serving them- I wish they'd...
Read More On Citysearch fukdisregistrationshiit 7/14/2007 - Buffalo Burgers and sweet potato chips!Casual counter style ordering, condiments on each table, exposed brick walls. Service is fast and the food is delicious, although the sweet potato chips were a bit soggy last time we were there. Great place for a quick Saturday lunch!
Read More On Citysearch pelliott99 7/7/2007 - Burgers you just can't find anywhere else!!!!If you like ?meat? on your burgers, this is the place to try. Not only are the ingredients fresh, but wildly different. You won?t be disappointed. If you like regular, Texas style, burgers you can get that, too, but you?d be cheating yourself if you didn?t try one of the gourmet burgers with everything from Black Angus to veggie patties. And save room for the most incredible ice cream you wil...
Read More On Citysearch katymonroe 7/6/2007 - follow-up to '07 review 4.8.08I go to the Root at least every couple of weeks and still think it's the best in town. I stand by my 07 review (see below, unless this new review wipes it out - which would be a shame, as it is Emerson-worthy prose).
On a couple of trips the seasoning was off (1: Ostrich patty too salty, 2: Buffalo not seasoned enough), but with the frequency I eat there, that's a pretty good average.

Read More On Citysearch ellerockem 6/25/2007 - Flavor and QualityQuality ingredients and great taste that make it worth driving from North Dallas. There is no other place like it! Start with the Fried Mac N Cheese and finish with the strawberry shake. Patio dining is always great for the scenery.....
Read More On Citysearch ebrick 6/22/2007 - The only burger worth craving!OK. I know a thing or two about burgers - having eaten a Texas-sized herd's worth of USDA Prime - and the only burger to cause me physical cravings is The Twisted Root's Blue Cheese Jalapeno burger with grilled onions. It has always proven worth the 20+ minute drive from my home (past at least 50 other "burger joints") to The Root for the BCJ - but don't forget the grilled onions! My wife tried...

We ordered the special @ $6.99 and she charged us $7.45 (charging us for each topping that was included in the special) and then tried to convince us otherwise?we paid it b/c it wasn?t worth the drama. Thankfully our food was yummy. We ordered veggie burgers, sweet potato chips & fries. Burgers were l...

So what did I do, I got down to the twist root as fast as I could and had 2 cheese burgers and a Banana & Baileys milkshake and I was cured. Twisted root burgers are like magic!!!!

Read More On Citysearch angeliac99 11/16/2006 - even a vegetarian will like the root.Ok, so I'm a vegetarian who happens to love this burger joint. Why? Mostly the chocolate shakes, the fries, and the three cheese salad (love those spicy pecans). Not only that, it's a great place to hang with friends, watch some sports on TV and share a drink or seven.
Read More On Citysearch rgrogman 11/16/2006 - Great BurgerDon't waste your time, you can't finish the double cheeseburger. I'm almost three bills and I was sick an entire day after attempting to do it. The wife swears the Turkey Burger is the best in town. Don't really like the crazy root beer flavors but overall, a great, clean place to bring the family.

I have never had a better burger in this town, or any town for that matter. While you are there, try the sweet potato fries and fried mac and cheese. They are outstanding. Before you leave, get a shake. hell, get two shakes. You won't be sorry.
Thanks TRB, you've been a long time coming!

No prepackaged patties here, the burger was so good and juicy. I have to get back to try the homemade ice cream next time!
