"CraveBurger" is a virtual brand that's only offered thru delivery apps. Unlike food from ghost kitchens, CraveBurgers are prepared and served from actual restaurants. I ordered thru GrubHub+, and my order came from "4481 International Blvd." A little research reveals that my food came from "La Frontera Mexican Restaurant" in East Oakland. So, on a Wednesday evening, at 8:20pm, I order:- Classic Burger ($9.00), with Cheese (add $2.00).- Onion Rings ($5.00) Okay, I used to be a fast food shift Mgr, so lets talk about this Classic Burger.This is a good cheese burger. Yes, I paid $2 more to make the Classic Burger a Cheeseburger. It came with lettuce, tomato, and zesty house sauce. The bun was toasted on the grill or a flat surface. The condiment placement was right on the mark. You pickup this burger, it stays together. The meat patty shows caramelization, which means it was freshly cooked. The meat is juicy and has flavor. I didn't like the house sauce, it was a bit too spicy for a cheeseburger. If I order this burger again, I would elect to add the free pickles, ketchup, and mustard. But still a good burger, Grade (4/5).The onion rings were still crispy and crunchy when they arrived. Usually fried foods don't travel well as delivery foods. These were crispy, but a little oily. So perhaps they needed to be drained a little longer. I think these rings have the simple coating, and then deep fried. Grade (4/5).Value: $9.00 for this 11.5-oz burger is about right. Add $2.00 for cheese. $5.00 for an order of onion rings is about average.
