Some good beef for a seafood place


Cajun Burger

So at the request of my friend, we finally were able to meet up, and also go to Ballard Brothers Seafood and Burgers to grab a bite. He'd been raving about this place for a bit, and I'd been looking for an opportunity to meet up, so it was good. When you walk in the place seems pretty unassuming, just a big board menu with an order side and a pick-up side. Most of the menu is seafood, but there are a good number of burgers to select from.

I opted for the Cajun Burger simply because I noticed they had a Cajun version of everything, so I figured, this must be something they're good at. The meat quality was good, full, and beefy, the three things I love in a good burger. The bun contained the burger well, and did its job. In terms of the fixings, it was pretty much cheese and onions, I did like how it worked in the burger and for this specific burger I don't know that I'd add much more, but it did make the burger a little sparse. The sauce was pretty good, except it was kind of gobbed on, so you made sure to taste a lot of it. I personally would've liked a little more kick or tang from a Cajun style burger, but it was tasty.

The fries were actually really well done, they had some kind of seasoning/breading on them so it made it pretty good, they were certainly gone before you knew it. It's a little out of the way, but certainly this is somewhere I'd go for a bite.
