Red Wagon Burger is a great find if you’re looking for HAND-DIPPED, homemade Onion Ring 8oz and Deep Fried Mushroom 10pc ! The Jalapenos Popper 8pc were just as good, although I couldn’t tell whether they were made from scratch or came frozen. Either way, they were delicious.
It’s surprisingly hard to find good beer-battered Onion Ring 8oz, so when I opened the box, I was thoroughly impressed. Every single ring was sweet, crunchy, and perfectly cooked. The Deep Fried Mushroom 10pc were lightly breaded and so fresh that every bite was bursting with flavor.
I’m not sure what they do to their French Fries, but whatever it is, they’ve got it figured out! The delicate batter and seasoning were spot-on, with a crispy exterior and a soft, addictive center. These fries were fantastic!
For our burgers, I ordered my husband the Double Cheeseburger and myself the Bacon Cheeseburger. I really appreciated being able to customize the toppings and add bacon to the double. However, I had specifically requested that our burgers be cooked medium-well, and both arrived well-done.
The buns were soft and nicely toasted, and the vegetables were fresh. My biggest complaint was the lack of sauce on the burgers. When I opened mine, I found the tiniest dab of mayonnaise sitting right in the middle of the bun. Thankfully, I was able to fix that at home.
My other disappointment was the portion size of the mushrooms. They come in a 10-piece order, and given the price, I expected them to be considerably larger. While the freshness and flavor helped make up for the cost, the portion size still left something to be desired.
Overall, the sides were the real standout here, especially the onion rings, mushrooms, and French fries. The burgers had potential, but the cooking temperature and lack of condiments kept them from being perfect. We’ll definitely give Red Wagon Burger another try in the future!
