Moxie Burger — Burgers / American, Alpharetta
Moxie Burger is the Alpharetta answer to the craft burger movement that swept American dining — a counter-service operation that takes the burger seriously without the pretension that occasionally accompanies that commitment.
The patties are ground fresh daily from Georgia beef. The buns are baked locally. The cheese is American in the way that American cheese was before it became a punchline. The combination is exactly what the burger should be.
The shakes, made with Georgia dairy and the seasonal fruit additions that the kitchen rotates through, are the supporting act and are taken as seriously as the burger itself.
The counter-service format and the accessible prices make Moxie the democratic alternative to the area's tablecloth restaurants — a place where the tech-corridor employee and the construction worker order the same thing.
