The Take

Order the prime burger at Engine Rose, the only clear call from its Engine No. 9 sister days. Slop Score 51 marks it mid nostalgia bait with zero current intel.

The 2015 praise called it straight-up delicious but the 2017 shutdown left sourcing and oil details blank. Deep-fried items get the avoid nod when most spots lean seed oils anyway.

The Verdict

Engine Rose delivered solid local cred while open but now exists only as a closed chapter. Skip the ghost kitchen entirely and hit whatever the No. 9 successor pushes instead.

Order line: prime burger from the connected spot or nothing. Slop Score 51.
