Some of the delicious burgers available at Flipside. (Ashley Zangara/The Mirror)

Looking for a casual joint to grab a delicious bite to eat?

Flipside restaurant, located on 1125 Post Rd, is the perfect place to enjoy a juicy burger with a side of crispy fries and a smooth milkshake for under $15.00. Flipside opened in early September, taking the place of Flying Dish.

The burger eatery was redecorated and redesigned before their grand opening. Although Flipside’s location is not too visible, its massive blue and tan sign can be clearly seen from Post Road.
Being a huge burger fan, I was a bit skeptical when I first heard about Flipside. I figured I might as well give this place a try, considering there is not another well-known burger place in town.

When I entered the restaurant, I was politely greeted by a smiling host. I was quickly seated and attended to within minutes. I was served a tall glass of ice water as I carefully examined the menu.
I noticed that its signature platter seemed to be a burger served with Velveeta cheese on a white roll for $6.25. If you do not like Velveeta cheese, Flipside also provides you with the option of Gorgonzola, cheddar or Swiss for an additional 50 cents.

The service was extremely fast and efficient. The waiter patiently listened as my roommate and I changed our order a total of four times. I finally settled on a cheeseburger served with cheddar cheese and avocado on whole wheat bread. I also decided to go with a side of grilled vegetables, instead of the French fries.

Within a mere 20 minutes, the succulent, juicy burger was sitting in front of me. Within the first bite I knew this was a match made in heaven. I fell in love! The fresh avocado blended perfectly with the cheddar cheese to produce an exciting, new taste.

I was not completely thrilled with the side of grilled veggies. They were blatantly cold and I enjoy mine hot, I mean they are supposed to be grilled … right? I would definitely advocate trying the fries instead.
Unfortunately, I resisted my temptation to order a milkshake, but luckily my roommate decided otherwise. I ferociously demanded a sip of her delectable creamy vanilla shake. It was absolutely fantastic, not too thick and not too watery.

If you are not a red meat eater, Flipside has options for you as well. It has a variety of salads to choose from as well as chicken burgers and veggie burgers.

Flipside is a kid friendly restaurant, therefore you must be prepared to deal with loud young children. I am not a huge fan of kids, but the burgers are definitely worth it! You can’t beat the price either.
Flipside provides a variety of options for all different tastes. I highly recommend you to hop on the shuttle and take a trip to the best burger place in town.
