My family and I decided to try this place tonight for dinner and we were not disappointed. We got delivery and it was fast, the food was hot and the delivery person was very nice.
We ordered the Trenton burger, the Philly burger and Pete's Crab Burger. They were all great!
We spent less money here than we would have if we had gone to a fast food chain and the food was far superior.
I highly recommend them.

There's something about this burger that makes it pretty good compared to other burger joints. Could it be the way they seasoned the burger while cooking it up? Could it be that bun? Or perhaps it could have been the ingredients? I became curious about the place during my search of great burger joints in the area and I stumbled upon this place... 25 Burgers. I thought the name was funny itself, but I guess 25 is better than one burger, so I decided to give it a try (with some friends!)
The first thing I'd like to mention, before the food, is the decor - it caught me by surprise because it... sorta looked like a heavily-decorated Five Guys Burgers & Fries restaurant. It was shockingly similar, but it had a lot of old-time framed black & white photos of the entertainment of years past. Their colour scheme - red & white - scream something too familiar with Five Guys. It didn't drive me away, but it was a bit of a shocker because I didn't think another chain would look so similar.
I tried the Mushroom Swiss Burger, which is basically an Angus Beef Burger, Sauteed Mushrooms, Swiss Cheese and Mayonnaise between the bun. Unlike Five Guys, it seems like they're not using egg buns, but I can't put my mind to what it is (since I'm no culinary professional.)* I will say that the way they seasoned the meat gives it a nice, somewhat-salty taste to mix in with the mushroom and THEN the Swiss Cheese. Think of it this way: the taste is legitimate and the burger is done right. To me, however, I have to say that there's not enough Mayo to drown a little bit of the salt-like taste that is brought by the seasoning of the beef.
I also tried their special (as it seems) funnel cake fries. I can only say a few things about this, but the most important thing is: Why didn't people think of this earlier? Nicely fried and coated with sugar... I'd have it again, but I think I prefer fries with my burger. You know, potato.
Service here was pretty fast - nothing special to mention. Really, it's a more quiet place than I thought, so I can't say too much either. The only people practically making some commotion were those in my party... doesn't seem as social as they probably tried to make it look. Oh well, good to sit down and enjoy a burger, I guess. No problems with the people serving me and my party, so no bad remarks here.
I'll say that this all awfully looks and feels familiar to Five Guys Burgers & Fries, but it has its differences. The fact that it has more variety is a huge plus, but the fact that it's not a big whoop is a bit of a downer. I enjoyed the food I had there and it's definitely not just "some burger joint", but maybe a little more can be done to wow me. That's all I have to say to close the review.

* Maybe they ARE using egg buns, but not as moist as that of Five Guys for a really stuffed burger (which is fine, I guess.)

Best burger I've had! I tried the "Bacon Royal Burger", it had a fried egg, bacon, American and cheddar cheese, onions, lettuce, tomato and mayo and OMG it was delicious!...the different types of tastes all together made the burger incredibly tasty and very important for me is that the burger was not one bit greasy, it was just perfection! My boyfriend had a "Six Alarm Burger"...it's a hot and spicy infused burger with chipotle mayo & sauce, hot peppers, pepper jack cheese, jalapeño peppers, lettuce and tomatoes on a Maui Onion roll...he thought it was delicious as well and enjoyed it very much. The fries are amazing! They were thick, yet crispy and crunchy and very nicely seasoned! I also had a strawberry milk shake which was topped with whipped cream, it delicious as well, the consistency was perfect, it was thick but yet you can still drink it. The place was clean, the staff was friendly and it was such a nice place...the decoration was very vintage 50s with picture of Marilyn Monroe, The Beatles, Elvis Presley etc. Really doesn't get any better, I loved this place!
