"Burger Up is a fantastic restaurant located on 12 South, surrounded by a great area with plenty of things to do. The happy hour deals offer some excellent prices on appetizers and drinks. Although not on the happy hour menu I ordered a white sangria that was good, though not the best I've had. The burgers, however, were phenomenal and worth a visit on their own. While I found the regular fries tastier than the sweet potato fries, I regret not trying the truffle fries. The honey mustard and ketchup sauces were unique and stored in Burger Up glass bottles, possibly made in-house. Overall, I highly recommend Burger Up for their delicious burgers and excellent location"

"We have gone to Burger Up for probably six years or so as a family. I’d say it’s one of the best restaurants in Nashville. -Consistent food and service. I’ve never had a bad experience or poor quality food; ever. -The decor is modern but also comfortable and warm; it’s a nice balance. -Their prices are VERY reasonable honestly, especially for Nashville. I love this place Looking forward to going back as much as possible!"

"The food is great, I had The Bryd and my husband had the Double Up Burger. Both were excellent. We really liked the house made ketchup."

"Overall a nice experience. I had the Woodstock Burger. Though it had great flavor, the bacon was so hard you couldn't bite through it. It was like a piece of jerky on the burger. My husband had the bison burger. He said overall it was a good burger, but nothing overly exceptional. We also had the South lemonade which was delightful. The basil was just enough and not overpowering. They don't do reservations, so I would fully suggest getting the Yelp app which allows you to get on a waitlist before you get there."

"I ordered Burger Up via Uber Eats and was happily pleased with my dinner! I got a traditional burger that was really delicious and had lots of flavor. I also got the crispy chicken bites, which were my favorite by far. They had incredible flavor and I wish I had had more of them to save for later. I also tried the Mac and cheese bites, which were good, but the sauce that came with them was better. Looking forward to getting that chicken again soon!"

"Very charming burger spot. Great atmosphere and very upbeat. The food cane out fast. The burgers are top-notch. The ketup and mustard condiments are so good! Found out they are made in-house and just had to buy them both. I really enjoyed eating here and will definitely come back."

"Burger Up Atmosphere (4 stars): This place is located in the trendy district of 12 South. Lots of large glass windows gives it a very open feeling. Has a cozy, pub vibe with the darker walls and wood accents. French Onion Burger (5 stars): I ordered it medium and it was cooked to perfection. The burger was very juicy and flavorful. I held the aioli so no comment on that. I ordered the regular fries and they were the natural cut with skin. Troyathalon Burger (3 stars): For a veggie burger this was very crunchy and dry. It has the consistency of a falafel. The cheese was not melted and the bottom bun was a bit cold. Overall lacked flavor. We upgraded to sweet potato fries. They were thick cut and ok. Staff (4.5 stars): Everyone was friendly and accommodating. Our server did disappear for about 10 minutes when we were ready to order but took our order right away and no issues after. Bonus: They do have a full bar!"
