Super Duper Burger is a San Francisco-based burger chain that is a step up from others: It boasts organic, locally sourced, humanely raised ingredients, including vegetarian-fed beef with an 80 to 20 protein to fat blend.
"From our famous (free) house-made pickles to the hand-painted signage, to our cheerful staff, we build our restaurants like we build our burgers—sustainably, locally, and with an unwavering commitment to quality. We work with local designers, sign painters, and artisans because it reduces our carbon footprint, and, frankly, because they’re some of the best in the world," reads the website.
The space definitely has a West Coast vibe, with some indoor-outdoor spaces and bright colors. The furniture is pretty modular and not exactly exactly cozy so you're not sticking around too long. There is a pickle jar, but I was a bit hesitant to test the communal waters.
I ordered the mini burger: One 1/4 lb daily ground, all-natural, vegetarian-fed Brandt Beef patty - cooked medium and served on a freshly baked bun with lettuce, tomato, red onion, and Super Sauce.
Plus a side of garlic fries: Fresh Garlic & 6 Month Aged Cheddar
Add in 3 dips: Homemade Super Sauce, Mayo & Chipotle Aioli.
The fresh strawberry shake is not skimping on the fresh strawberry - which had a heaping helping on the top.
The burger not only tasted great, but it also was presented in a lovely way. Certainly a step up from other burger joints. just a bit fresher, cleaner, and more succinct flavors. I think all fries should be garlic and/or truffle fries, so this also receives top marks from me. The shake was great. All in all, an elevated burger experience that is still quick but without cutting corners.
