Burgers and fries may be a classic, all-American meal, but that doesn't mean they're easy to make well. On the contrary, Roam Artisan Burgers has built its popularity on the idea that producing the best burger possible takes special care and attention.

You'll start by choosing between beef, bison, elk, turkey, or vegetarian patties, and then you'll choose your flavor profile: French with gruyere, caramelized onions, and truffle parmesan fries, Tejano with spicy pepper jack, jalapeno relish, and avocado, and BBQ with cheddar, BBQ sauce, and vinegar slaw are the most popular, though you'll find plenty of other options, as well. The restaurant itself is a fast-casual eatery, so you'll order at the counter when you arrive, but regulars emphasize that you shouldn't mistake this place for a traditional fast food joint. Instead, once you place your order, you'll choose a table and your meal will be brought out to you when it's finished. The dining room's atmosphere is chic and modern, with plenty of reclaimed wood, Edison-style lights, and a long row of stools lining the back bar.
