Definitely my favorite place to get a burger on campus. Their selection for toppings is very extensive which makes me happy. Additionally there is no extra charge for adding toppings. I also get cheese fries when I get a burger and splurge while I’m enjoying my burger. I usually take my food to go because there isn’t much room to sit in the restaurant which is unfortunate. However, that makes the restaurant less busy which is something that I approve of. Lastly, they have Fanta to drink which is always a plus. All in all, I will be returning.

Not a bad place to order delivery. Not as quick as I would like but hey, the food was good. Solid burger and fries.

I went to Jurassic Grill because of a Hooked Deal and I was very pleased with the value. Amazing customer service and great food. The cooks are beyond nice to everyone who walk in and I chose to give them more business mainly because I know how much they appreciate each and every customer! Definitely a great business however I wish there was more sitting/moving space.

Solid burgers. I know their meat is frozen but it sure is tasty. And they use fancy lettuce and have a lot of complimentary topping to pick from. It’s kinda like Five Guys but like 90% as good. Overall, I’m a fan.

Ordered a T-Rex(2 burger) bacon cheeseburger. It was pretty tasty; nothing to write home about, burgers looked like they were cooked on too-low heat, but tasted good. I ordered cajun fries; not sure if that’s what they gave me. It tasted okay, but not particularly cajun-y. They were a little soggy and seemed like frozen fries that had been fried at low temperature or baked. Not a fan of the fries. Delivery was faster than predicted.

Got it delivered, got a single burger with ketchup, mustard and mayo… Burger was a pleasant surprise. I expected a very generic cheap tasting burger when I first ordered to be honest. I was surprised to receive a rather tasteful, juicy, and good sized burger. The fries on the other hand, were very soft and floppy, I prefer rather crunchy fries. They may have gotten soggy and soft while being delivered? I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt and try the fries in the restaurant next time.

I read so many articles about this place and was so excited for it to open last semester! I was a little disappointed by the interior(nowhere to sit), but the burgers were pretty good(thick patties and super customizable). Nothing I would go out of my way for, but definitely worth a try — especially if you use the Hooked deals that come by every day.

I had been meaning to try Jurassic after the Empanadas House closed, which was there before. One hungry afternoon after class I checked the Hooked app and saw Jurassic had $ 2 off. Perfect opportunity! Walked into the store and checked out the menu, which is very straightforward and pretty consolidated. I got a T-Rex bacon cheeseburger with a bunch of my favorite toppings, for a little over $ 5, which, for the size, and amount of calories, was a steal. The burger was tasty! Nicely put together and blended well with the fresh-tasting ingredients. Didn’t get any fries or anything with it. If you’re looking for a big, greasy mouthful of ‘Merica, this it in all its glory. Overall it’s a solid fast burger place, perhaps expensive without the Hooked deal, but I wouldn’t quite say the best burger in C-U, either. In my opinion Farren’s probably takes that cake.

I really liked their burgers and came back for the fourth time already. The Mexican lady who took my order asked me if I wanted a combo with my burger. I said«I’m good» and paid for my burger. I asked for a cup for water and she gave me the big cup for drinks, but I only got water. They the burger came with fries. I asked her if I ordered combo and she said yes. I didn’t say anything back, but this is really unexpected. When I asked if I ordered a combo, I simply imply that I didn’t. Either she just assume that I wanted a combo or couldn’t understand English. The fries I got were cajun and I don’t remember anything close to the word«cajun». The fries were soggy and the«drink» coming out of the sprite dispenser was just pure soda.

A bit underwhelming. Just burgers and fries on the menu, so not much variety in the food. The burgers are good; but when there’s just one thing on the menu I expect it to be fabulous, not just an Applebee’s-style hamburger. Limited seating and no ambiance just makes it seem like a doomed business. There’s nothing«Jurassic» about it, and even something to pull the theme into the actual restaurant(big portion sizes, Sauron-shaped fries, ANYTHING!) would help; but it just seems gimmicky. Went once to see what it was about, but there are infinitely better dining options nearby.

Be careful you don’t get eaten by T-Rex while in the restroom. What makes this charburger place unique from all others is that their normal burgers include two meat patties. Get the junior versions if you wish for one meat patty burgers. One aspect that is sucky-ducky is its small dining area. There’s around six seats total and nowhere to eat outside.

The food here is very good. They make it on a grill that’s visible to the consumer, so you can see how fresh the ingredients are, how clean they keep everything, and how much care they put into it. Very reasonable prices as well. Check this place out because it’d be a huge bummer if it went out of business.

I got a T-rex cheeseburger with everything on it and a side of cajun fries. The burger was pretty good, but the presentation was terrible. They literally slapped everything together and had the burger leaning one way and the topping leaning another way. the fries were disappointing. When I think of cajun fries I think of delicious thick-cut, crispy fries. Jurassic Grill’s cajun fries were flat, lifeless fries topped the cheapest packet of cajun seasoning they could find. I didn’t eat my fries, and I’m not a very picky eater. Some of their burgers come in the«T-rex» version, which will get you an extra patty for a dollar. You get to choose from a good number of basic«Free Toppings». It would be nice to have a selection of premium toppings like avocado, portabello mushrooms, bleu cheese, etc. Also, they have a cool theme, so it’s beyond me why they don’t use it to expand their small menu. They could have a burger topped with guacamole, lettuce, red onion, and pepper jack and call it some like the Guaca-saurus Burger. Their menu places so much info on their free toppings, but ketchup, mustard, onions, etc is not unique enough to keep me coming back to this place for an ok tasting burger. A lot of untapped potential at this restaurant.

What you typically hear is that Jurassic Grill is a ripoff of 5 guys or meatheads. This could not be further from the truth. Every time I’ve been here the burgers are cooked fresh right before your eyes and the toppings are displayed in a refirgerator in plain sight. There is none of the behind the scenes burger building like you’ll find at other places. Price wise Jurassic Grill is comparable to 5 guys or meatheads. The only problems are the lack of seating and the strange hours. Even considering these, Jurassic Grill deserves a five star rating, and then some. When you stop by be sure to say hi to the owner and chat with him a bit if it isn’t too busy. The times I’ve been there he was working the register which shows his dedication. Jurassic Grill is a must-visit for any burger lover, on campus or not.

For about $ 1 more you’re getting a lot more, higher quality burger meal than you would from Mickey Ds. The Cajun fries alert soft, fat, and it was hard to stop eating them. Burgers are made with a large variety of toppings right in front of your eyes. Feeling hungry? Eat like a Dinosaur!

Veggie burger is super bland. Something wan’t right with the food. Caused some serious gastrointestinal upset(won’t give more details, but yikes).

The Good: –The burgers are so good! I ordered a cheeseburger with ketchup only(lame, I know). Turns out it’s similar to a double cheeseburger and has cheese between two patties, it’s pretty greasy, but absolutely delicious! –The fries were pretty good, but lacked a bit of salt, but hot and fresh! The Meh: –A serious lack of dinosaur theming! A single toy T-Rex sits in front of the menu… and that’s it. I’m assuming they are waiting to see how successful the business is prior to investing in décor, not really a big deal at all, just a little disappointing. The Bad: –A serious lack of seating! There are literally eight seats in the entire place! I’m guessing that this is again an issue of waiting to see before investing too much in décor, but there’s at least room for one more table. Overall: Definitely worth checking out! I know that I’ll be returning again!

Kudos for being another 3am joint. They fulfill orders fast and stay open late and the food is good. Great theme idea for a college campus. They also have veggie burgers, which is cool. They definitely have to work on building a cohesive image and planning their interior to bring the theme to fruition. Nevertheless, the food is good. I’m bumping up a star because the service is really great.

Solid burger place, especially considering the other options on campus. Prices are very reasonable, though I feel like there could be more fries. Some compare it to Five Guys, but I haven’t been there enough to judge. Worth checking out though if you like burgers.
