Chefs FeedAugust 18, 2016These are some juicy and tasty burgers. Chef Ricardo Zarate's favorite is the Hatch Burger with four kinds of green chilies and house cheese. It's really spicy, but not overpowering. Read more
Edlin ChoiOctober 1, 2012Truffle burger was awesome. Everything on the menu looks good though. Get a side order of sweet potato fries and wash it down with a Fat Tire. Yum. Plus it's in The Grove! (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
fresh sinatraMarch 30, 2013Any combination of Truffle burger and sweet potato fries, thin cut French fries, onion rings or all three (I've done it before)... They've recently added to the menu more for the health conscious.
오미헤August 22, 2012pretty nifty & healthy way of eatin a burger ! a vege burger that is ! a nice, clean, pretty spacey place. but a lot of noise i must say :) nonetheless the Umami Burger is the way to go with a soda
MimiJuly 27, 2016Delicious burgers. It doesn't matter which Umami Burger joint you hit up but if you're up for a walk and down to get some shopping done before/after, then come eat at the Umami Burger at The Grove.
ASJuly 13, 2018This is HEAVEN ON EARTH !! Juicy sexy lovely burger that makes you feel what is the true meaning of food !! Goddddd !! I’m in deep love with it .... smh.
Hisham AlasmriSeptember 24, 2019Truffle fries are so delicious. Umami burger was good but I asked them to cook it well done so It was a little bit dry. The waiters are really awesome.
- RDecember 24, 2012It's a pretty solid burger. Tried the umami, truffle, and manly burger. The umami and truffle were pretty good but would recommend the manly burger. More savory. Umami and truffle are subtle.
Mahtab TahirAugust 19, 2014Excellent burger place, not too pricey and the burgers are fantastic. Best when they're medium rare. Definitely try the truffle burger or the Cali burger.
Men's Health MagSeptember 18, 2014ORDER: The Samberger. The six-ounce patty of American Wagyu beef is smothered in a mélange of Chicago-hotdog-inspired condiments like sport peppers, roasted tomatoes, and yellow mustard.
Aline ChirinianJune 17, 2018Forget all the burgers and go for the impossible burger, even if you’re not vegan. It’s soooo good!
The new Royale Burger, which has a thin layer of tri-tip added to the top of the beef patty, is phenomenal and will give you a true gastronomic orgasm.
- New Umami is consistent with the other locations in terms of taste, service and modern decor. Ordered the Grove burger, which was very tasty. Only bad news: no validated parking yet.
- 오미헤August 22, 2012today yes the greenbird burger is very delightful with the sprouts & creamy avacado & a full cooked meat, but the UMAMI burger was very pink & undercooked although it was delicious
Sarp ErkayaSeptember 19, 2016An original spot with twists on hamburgers, served in a calm Japanese environment. The taste is somewhat calm (read bland) as well. Patty and even fries are lacking seasoning.
Hamoud AlDabbousMay 29, 2016Order the truffle burger with sweet potato fries. Don't bother your self with the menu and ENJOY 😍
Ashley DAugust 19, 2014Jessica offered us Ice-Cream Sandwiches (which i did not see on the menu ;) ) salted caramel ice cream wedged between two snickerdoodle cookies 😍
The Grove Truffle Burger is so good. It's just a perfect burger. Onion rings were cooked perfectly. Paired with the garlic aoili dipping sauce. Good stuff!
Brian CAugust 6, 2013Food here is just as great as it is at other locations & modern design is awesome, but at the risk of sounding old - IT'S TOO LOUD AT THIS LOCATION! Sounds r amplified - feels like a crowded cafeteria
Michelle M.January 5, 2014Enjoyed my Manly Burger. Normally, I don't eat an entire burger, but this was gone before I knew it. It was a nice place for a tourist to go as opposed to a chain restaurant. I would go here again.
John CoOctober 27, 2013The truffle burger is really good. This is one joint where the "original" is not the best, so skip the original burger! 😁
Lizzy CookJanuary 3, 2015Truffle burger!! Great service. They have a "trust us" option for $21 where they recommend your burger/fries/drink combo. Share your fries.
George LeeJanuary 5, 2015Truffle burger sauce is nice. Not sure it's worth the price tag. Worth it to try once
Clarissa SSeptember 15, 2014the grove truffle burger + mexican coke is the best combination ever. tonguegasm.
Jennifer MaasJune 21, 2015Sunny side burger, truffle fries and maple bacon sweet potato fries are all great bets.- Sammy EdwardsMarch 11, 2013The truffle burger is by far the best burger I have ever had. Nothing else compares!

Jaydee QuekSeptember 5, 2017Size is appropriate for the Asian stomach. Try the umami, manly and truffle burger!
Mona AlammarAugust 24, 2019I tried 6 items on the menu and can’t recommend any. I liked in-n-out burgers more.
mkFebruary 24, 2018A lot of people love Umami, this is my third time trying their menu and still not really sure about it!
- Ryan TauerAugust 9, 2015Truffle fries and manly burger were great. Thick cut bacon on the manly burger!
Danilo Stern-SapadJanuary 6, 2013Truffle or Manly burger all the way. Sweet Potato Fries with Garlic Aioli sauce or Smushed Potatoes.
MadAugust 16, 2012The Earth Burger is a great vegetarian choice. Also, try the tempura onion rings with jalapeño ranch
