Reviews for BRU Burger Bar - Evansville in Cincinnati, OH
Decent beer selection with local (50 west) and national (Sam adams, fat tire) on draft. Chose the lamb burger which was very... well made medium rare, good salty crust. The bug could be better, it came soggy from the sauce and juices. Fries were ok, goodhouse made ketchup sauce (was a little too sweet for me personally but it is well made). Read more
Came here for lunch today with a friend. Service was good, our waitress made sure we always had water, which was appreciated on... this hot day. We started with the BBQ pork nachos. Those were delicious, and I like that they put the guac and sour cream on theside so you can put how much you want on the nachos. I ordered the white cheddar truffle burger. That was so good! It's a bigburger and they ACTUALLY cooked it medium rare! Wow! I had never heard of truffle corn before, but it accompanies the burgerquite well! And it was $14. Not bad! Read more
Decided to try out BRU burger with the homies because it was recommended by Trip Advisor. We got takeout and it was wayyyy... better than anticipated. They did a great job preparing our order at the pick up time so that everything was fresh and crispy.We had the BRU burger and the double bacon burger (interestingly the base doesn’t include bacon but you can add it on) with aside of onion ring and fries. The burgers were delicious and I enjoyed the soft brioche buns that were used. Onion rings werecrispy and good with the ranch. Bru burger also has their own house ketchup which I feel Is tastier than regular ketchup becauseit is seasoned. Overall we really enjoyed the take out meal from this restaurant and will definitely be coming back. Read more
Big, big fan of this place! Must go there for their amazing onion rings any time I'm in town, mouth watering. Good array of... burger options and they will swap a vegetarian Impossible patty on any of them. Good atmosphere and nice outdoor seating forwhen the weather is nice. Read more
Took my mom on vacation to see the Ark and Creation Museum. We had no plans for dinner, but I wanted to eat in Cincinnati, so we... picked BRU found on Google Maps. Boy, I'm glad we did. Coming form a Chicago guy who knows food, this place was very impressive.It was super easy to set our reservation thru Google Maps. When we arrived, we were cheerfully greeted and seated quickly.Waitress was pleasant and on spot serving us. Both my Mom and I got the Bacon Burgers. We were both impressed, and pleased withthe taste, looks, temperature, and presentation. Needless to say both burgers disappeared relatively quickly. In short, I highlyrecommend checking this place out. It was clean, modern, welcoming. All-around pleasant experience. Read more
Gluten Free menu!! Okay guys, all I can say is YUM!!! I had the Stilton Burger- Fresh made bun, pear-bacon jam, blue cheese,... spinach & crispy fried onions. Don’t judge till you try it, the flavors just match. I’m still craving it and will make it aregular spot to go. We had a Celiac‘s person in our group so finding a restaurant she can eat at is a challenge. But theyhave a full gluten free menu and they use a separate fryer/area for prep; to avoid cross contamination. Oh and their homemadeketchup is absolutely to die for. I don’t even like ketchup, but this was absolutely incredible. Service was on point, veryclean and super cute decor/aesthetic. It’s in downtown on 6th Street, we had no trouble finding parking in a garage across thestreet. There is plenty of street parking though, you just have to look. Read more
I was in Cincinnati on a business trip. Was in the downtown area wanted to grab something to eat. Bru burger was close so I and... my wife decided to check it out. The first thing ill like to point out is that it's a somewhat fancy restaurant and if youdecide to dine in make reservations ahead of time. Wait time was 5 - 10 minutes and we were greeted, seated, and had our menus.It's a clean friendly environment, kid-friendly from what I've seen at the time I was there. The food isn't too expensive butsome will look at other places and feel they do better for a cheaper price. The wait time on the food was minimal and thewaiters are very attentive while you wait. Once on got my food it was fresh and very good. I got the Mexicali Burger and a bowlof fruit and my wife got a Memphis BBQ Melt with Chili fries. But if you're in the downtown Cincinnati area I highly recommendgiving this place a try. Read more
Visited BRU Burger before taking in BLINK on Friday night. Their reservations had been full, but we only waited about 10 minutes... after being quoted 20 (they asked if we could be out in an hour, which I was fine with). They have some inventive burgers on themenu, and ours were good, including my Honey BBQ burger (see pic). The patties are not enormous, but the overall burger withtoppings is quite filling. They don't ask how you want it cooked, and it seems they aim for a medium-well doneness. My wife hada salad that looked very good. Service was great, and the front staff were of good cheer and really working to get thosewaiting, seated. Nice draft beer selection too, as the BRU name implies! Read more
