Lunch is a big, true burger, and these big beef patties remind me of Shake Shack when they were selling out…before they actually sold out.
The Trueburger is exactly what you ask for, a patty with whatever. An all-American burger, but not the juiciest patty.
The True Deluxe, a patty with whatever cheese, topped with a fried portobello. Flawless fry on a fabulous mushroom cap, but together it's a bit too much. The portabello itself would make a better burger, and it wouldn't kill them to season both.
Great Fries, actually worth mentioning. Freshly fried and crispy, to be consumed by the fistful.
A Chocolate Milkshake, with caramel drizzled in. They have plenty of mixers to choose from, with chocolate or vanilla as the base. All enjoyment, no complaints.
Likable place overall, though the patties could be better. That seems to be the theme at most burger places I've been.
Lake Merritt - Oakland, CA
After lunch, it's over to Lake Merritt to keep the kids outside.
And it's gorgeous. The water is the very picture of tranquility, home to so many ducks and seagulls.
Peaceful by the waterside, bustling with hustling vendors and street artists on the other.
Anything goes on the shores of Lake Merritt, all come and go as they please. If you're looking for a place to just enjoy that you exist, this park would be paradise.
