Just curious.. has anyone eaten at this place (Sanlitun)??
I walked by and saw a lunch menu, Burgers (no cheese or Bacon) starting at 75 RMB....yikes thought I was in a hotel.
Want to see if its worth my hard earned cash being spent there or holding my breath for the Let's Burger to open by Saddle Cantina. This place looks promising!
Thx

I've been to the one in Macao and thought the food was very good, but a little pricey.
Haven't been to this one yet.

Re: Blue Frog????
it just opened at 5pm today, according to Beijing Boyce (http://www.beijingboyce.com/2008/08/29/lets-burger-its-on-5-pm-today/)
burgers start at 48
the Blue Frog's burger was not bad but I felt it was a bit overpriced as well.

Re: Blue Frog????
Ate there about a week ago, and I must say that I just had one of the most disappointing hamburgers ever.
1. Asked for medium, I got well done. And even when completely cooked the burger was overly greasy.
2. The bun is nearly twice the size of the actual patty.
3. The slice of cheese is so thin that I thought they forgot to put it on.
4. When I ask to sub the fries for a side salad, I am told "no".
None of this would be major cause for concern except that the Burger was 80(75without cheese) RMB, and at the Shanghai location this wouldnt have happend. I realize this is Beijing and not Shanghai. But can't you do better than that for 7 euro? I will not be coming there again.
Understand it isnt a pricing issue it is a value issue. i would happily pay 100 RMB if I new I was getting a great hamburger.

Re: Blue Frog????
ate there this weekend, had the burger. An uninspired, flavorless pile of expensive crap on my plate. Will NEVER return - in any city.

Have been there in Shanghai. Was not impressed, overpriced and the burger was not special. Don't think I will go now when they have opened in Beijing.

Go to Aria at China World Hotel.. a great burger will set you back about 130 RMB.

Re: Blue Frog????
Recently tried Blue Frog and Let's Burger - both burgers were bland and tough. Like most restaurants in Beijing, they overwork the already low quality ground beef which makes the burgers dense and tough. Neither tasted of beef - or of anything really.
The chips (fries) at Let's Burger were really lovely, though.
Service at both was fine.
Cheers,

They're were nice until I was writing while having the menu out. Assuming I was stealing food ideas from them, the waitress took away the menu (angrily too, i might add).
WOW, the wait staff is SUPER RUDE!!!!!
Also, welcome to the lamest, blandest, worst veggie burger that ever lived. It was about as dry as Beijing air.
Don't go there... just don't.
It's overpriced anyways and food is better tasting and less expensive anywhere else.

No one cares about veggie burgers.
There are like 25 people in Beijing who order veggie burgers.
Die, hippy!

I went there for dinner last Saturday, not bad!
Dear god, make me a bird, so I can fly far, far far away from here.

Re: Blue Frog????
blue frog is sh*t food, served in a US style cheesy chain restaurant atmosphere.
like TGI Fridays, but the food doesn't even measure up to that standard.
it's sh*t.
