11 months agoCoach would really love this place, too bad he ate the Helicopter that Nick said it was made of chocolate. And a One Star on the environment cause of the Infected and Tank roaming the area, not only that, the Rain. Rochelle Almost died from a Tank that was camping the Burger Tank. Plus the Service was a Boomer behind the counter that decided to blow up, and then a horde of Infected came and nearly destroyed us. :/ DATE REVIEWED: 11/9/2009 - “Ellis”

a year agoAh, Burger Tank. It's been on campus for years. I give it a try every few semesters. Mostly, I avoid it, but only because a burger is just too much meal for lunch on the go. This time, I ordered the Mocking Burger which is their take on the Big Mac: cheese, red onions, lettuce, pickles, thousand Island dressing. Tater tots as a side. Total price $12 (marginally cheaper than Five Guys). Overall, it was good. But this is a food review, so let's scrutinize the details... The brioche bun is the right choice. I'm thankful that pretty much everyone switched to brioche buns around 2005. In Philly, it was Le Bus that started the trend, distributing them to all the local joints. Soon everyone was serving them for good reason. These buns are substantial enough that you can grip a sandwich, but they still retain the pillowy cloud like texture of the mass-produced potato bun. In other words, they have enough structural integrity to hold up under the pressure of beef grease, but they're not too hard or crusty. Good choice. The fixins: Crisp green lettuce. Bright red onion without too strong an allium-sulfur kick. The pickles were just okay; texture was spot on, but there was very little brine flavor. I couldn't taste the cheese at all. I could see it; it was dripping out of the sandwich and looked like it was going to be stretchy and gooey. But there was very little flavor and not much creaminess. I think they're using a cheap yellow cheddar--they either need to upgrade to a high quality sharp cheddar, or use American cheese instead. Similarly, the Thousand Island dressing needs to be bolder; maybe there just wasn't enough. I was hoping for that sweet and sour richness (everyone's "special" sauce), but I couldn't taste it. Unfortunately, the burger patty itself was dry. I mean it tasted fresh, but it was overcooked so that almost all the juices had evaporated. Also, it was under seasoned. Rule number one for burgers: be liberal with salt and pepper, it helps all the other flavors shine. Burger Tank failed here, and as a result the patty was just a crumbly and chewy texture in the midst of all the fixins. To be fair: the same can be said about the Big Mac patties, so if that's part of their mocking approximation, it works. Finally, the tater tots. Nothing special to say here. Average frozen tots, deep fried. Burger Tank needs to season these better, too. Sea salt and pepper is all you need to elevate the tot. At $4 an order, they should add something to make them special (Parm? Truffle oil? Cajun seasoning?). I only ate half the order. Bottom line: Burger Tank is just okay. But I'll go back again. It's really nice to be able to get a fast food style burger from a small, local business. I don't want to live in a world where all the burgers have been scaled, standardized, and corporatized. Burger Tank keeps the dream alive. The service is great. Friendly, happy, and quick.

2 years agoI got the C4 burger with bacon and barbecue sauce and it greatly exceeded my expectations. It was delicious, didn't take long, and was very reasonably priced.

3 years agoBOMB. Got the insane burger with fries. The burger is juicy and flavorful. The fries got that nice crunchy flakey outside texture but the inside is still fluffy. I’m glad they’re back on campus! The wait was not too long either.

9 years agoStopped by Temple University just to eat at the food trucks tonight. After making my rounds and seeing what everyone had to offer, I decided a big, juicy burger was what I was in the mood for. I ordered up a double patty Epic Burger. Epic isn't even the right word to describe how delicious this burger was! The burger could have easily been the best burger I have ever had in my life. I can't wait to come back and enjoy another one. Definitely worth the drive from New Jersey to eat here again.
