Trax Burgers And Bar

I've never had anything at Trax that hasn't blown me away. Ever since I first came here a few years ago and tried the churro ice cream sandwich ($10) for the first time, it's been one of my favorite desserts in the cities.Today, I tried the Saddle Up burger ($16) and it was so good I could cry. The patty was perfectly seasoned, the candied bacon was inctedible, and the aged cheddar actually tasted strongly of cheddar in a way I don't find often on burgers! I thought about shelling out a couple dollars to upgrade to fries for my side, and I'm so glad I didn't--those house made bbq chips that come with the burger are incredible, I could've eaten pounds of them. Deliciously seasoned and perfect texture, even after sitting in a takeout container in my car for half an hour!I also had the BLT Wedge Salad ($14), which I liked a lot too--the addition of pickled onion and toasted pepita really separated it from most wedge salads I've tried before. They don't skimp on the dressing either--I'm glad I got it to go so I could choose how much dressing to put on! The gem lettuce traveled great and was not at all soggy by the time I got home, and all of the flavors were great. It did come in a little saltier than I'm used to in wedge salads, but it worked really well for me as an enjoyer of salty things!Since it wasn't a show night at the Fillmore, it was a pretty chill and quiet vibe for Thursday night trivia. Tai, who was serving the whole floor tonight, was amazing and offered great recommendations for food too!Even if you're not going to a show at the Fillmore, you should totally go out of your way to get a burger at Trax.

The burgers were good, chicken sandwich was solid . The bbq chips were not that good . Place is clean . Service is decent . Atmosphere is cute . Great place for burger if you going to Fillmore theater after. Might want to pay extra for fries because chips are not good at all.

I ate here about 3 years ago and was impressed. I was in the area with my dog with me decided to stop by. The hostess was nice enough to pull a lower table so that I could sit comfortably with my pup (great customer service). I ordered the Saddle Up burger with the house made BBQ chips.The burger was phenomenal! The flavors messed together perfectly without overpowering each other. I could really taste the quality of the meat. I could've dealt without the bbq chips, they were nothing to rave about. I'll def be back!

Some friends and I made a reservation here for dinner on a Thursday night (trivia night!) and had a great time! It is super easy to get to - right off the light rail and plenty of parking nearby (street parking and a ramp). In the warmer weather the parking probably gets more difficult on nights when the twins are playing. It was a lot less crowded than some other bars I've gone to for trivia night which was so nice! You could actually hear the MC ask the trivia questions! The game was run through trivia mafia and you could submit answers as a team on your phones. Service here was also super speedy and friendly! Our water glasses were full the entire night and all our food came out piping hot. On to the food - it was all absolutely delicious! I ordered the Saddle Up burger with a side of truffle Parmesan fries (an upgrade). The burger was juicy and flavorful, everything you hope for with a smash burger. And the FRIES! Pay the extra $5, they're 100% worth it. Perfectly crunchy and seasoned with a delish aioli and parm on top. Portions are large too. I ordered the sour, $10 so it's a bit pricier for drinks here (cocktails were $16-17) but it worked well with the burger. Overall, I will definitely be back here for another dinner + trivia night!

Stopped by Trx before the concerts at Target Field. For a burger-centric joint, the atmosphere is very trendy. First off, the service was great. Both the bartender that greeted us and our server couldn't have been more welcoming and friendly. News flash: great service makes the whole experience great.Second, the food was of the same standard. I had the Trax burger (their standard cheeseburger) and thought it comparable to a "good" Whopper. My wife had the caeasar and fries and enjoyed both. Would stop in again when we're in the neighborhood or before something at Target Field.

Good food, even better service. Was right next to our hotel and right between hotel and Twins field.

Okay I'm gonna five star this spot because the flavors were just perfect! I will caveat it with the fact that I do not like the buns they use for the burgers (they fall apart and are too soft IMO) but bc everything else was fantastic, it didn't bug me that much :PWe kicked off the meal with the bacon candy and soft pretzel. The soft pretzel was exactly what you would want, but the bacon candy was the real star! Slow braised Nueske's bacon, sweet & salty glaze, pickled red onion, red chile flakes... pretty sure someone was going to lick the plate it was so good!Burger-wise we tried the Trax Burger, the Wagyu Marrow and the Gobbler.The Trax burger was their version of the double smash cheeseburger that is pretty trendy and popular! The IPA mustard aioli and the bacon ketchup added a really nice kick that you don't often get! However this is where the bun really disappointed! But it was real tasty!The Wagyu Burger was SO good. It's one of those burgers you just want to keep eating and never stop eating. Wagyu brisket & ribeye blend, Gruyère cheese, pickled red onion, triple cheese mornay, bone marrow Nueske's bacon onion jam, truffle aioli - it almost seems like too much but it works. Delish!The Gobbler looked good bc we are suckers for Turkey burgers. This did not disappoint - Ground turkey, triple cream brie cheese, Nueske's bacon jam, Bing cherry aioli, apple & fennel slaw, mustard vinaigrette. I mean, how could it not be good?!We also got truffle parm fries (not pictured) and they were crispy yet chewy. Plus the house cut bbq chips were on point!We also got a smattering of drinks that I loved but managed to only get a picture of the Nordic Salutation: Don Julio blanco tequila, blueberry, lime, basil, sugar, salt. It wasn't too sweet, which to me is the mark of a good tequila drink, and it wasn't too tequila forward. In other words I could drink it all night!Overall we had an awesome experience (buns aside) and would def be back to try some boozy shakes and more burgers! Or maybe we'll just get the exact same ones because they were so tasty!

I have surprisingly never heard of this place but my bf found it on Yelp when searching for a good burger one day. We came here on a gloomy Saturday at 3pm and we were the only people there.. I thought ok either it's a weird time in the day to eat lunch or this place sucks. Turns out this place doesn't suck. This Wagyu Marrow Burger ranks top 5 burgers I have ever had. The cauliflower was also delicious. It's breaded and has mild Indian flavors to it. Boyfriend approved!

The place looked great ! Cool vibe ! The food was good quality buy all sweet everything had a sugar sweet aspect drinks were very sweet also . I dint like sweets in my meat lol

Service and staff are on top of their jobs here and the ambiance is very pretty for a burger bar. You'll be greeted the minute you sit down by multiple staff. We snagged a spot at the bar before a concert and were served immediately with water and menus. Just beers were ordered as we were trying to keep it a tame night but their craft cocktails look delicious and fun! I got the waygu burger which is $18 but $18 of deliciousness. It is garlic and cheese and mushrooms and creamy goodness on an egg bun. I don't regret ordering it and highly recommend if you just want to splurge and get the best burger on the menu - do it! My boyfriend got the Trax burger and it was just as flavorful, juicy, and made to perfection.All burgers are served with their homemade chips which are actually really good but we decided to get an order of truffle fries as well. They came with a garlic aioli that definitely completes the side, only $5 and totally worth it.For dessert we had the churro ice cream sandwich. Talk about being a sugary kid again! It tasted like a bowl of Cinnamon Toast Crunch! It comes with a chocolate sauce to drizzle over it and it definitely "puts the icing on the cake". We devoured it and I would 100% order this again. Prices are a little steep which make me want to bring this down to 4 stars but it's beautiful and the food is good + it's connected to the Fillmore concert venue in the North Loop which means they can get away with it.
