This is a highly experimental dining experience. The food was very good, but it's less about that. The draw of the place is the promise of having your food prepared for you entirely by robots. In this sense, the place is a smashing success.

Burger patty was delicious. Lettuce was orangey color on ends. Not fresh. A really cool idea would be to have robots deliver food to dine in customers.

This was a fun and interesting dinner outing. The humans :) were very kind with our school aged children, explaining how Flippy and Burger Bot work, and telling us some of the history. I would love if in the future a gluten-free burger bun was offered. We will be back!

A unique and interesting experience. Easy to order from the kiosk. The process was interesting to watch, however I think it will not replace more than 1 person. People are still needed to finish everything up. Overall good value, I will probably come back to show others.

Great folks, great equipment and convenient location. But the price of the food was shockingly high. I'm not sure with so many nearby substitutes that the price point will be sustainable in the long term. If pricing can be overcome I believe the value statement will really leap forward. Best of luck and thanks for driving innovation!

Fries were salty but that was human error by the robot’s assistant and not Flippy. Cut down on the salt.

I enjoyed the burger and the option to remove ingredients (like onion!). The bun was a good quality and texture, but I found it odd that its diameter was bigger than the patty. The fries were very salty, and I did not like the oil used. While this was a great novel opportunity to have lunch with some co-workers, I don't think I'd go out of my way to come again. If I did, burger only please!

Overall, it was a fun, informational, and novel experience to be in the first AI burger restaurant on the planet; however, the price is higher and less satisfying than an In-N-Out burger, in my opinion, and you don’t get any fries with the $9 price tag. Regardless, I felt I had to visit to know how it all worked.
