Burger Me! on Donner Pass Road in Truckee has been feeding the Sierra Nevada mountain community with quality burgers since it opened, building a menu around fresh-ground beef, creative toppings, and the kind of straightforward quality that earns a mountain town its locals’ loyalty beyond the ski season. It appeared in Season 9, Episode 11 of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, “Burgers ‘n More,” which aired July 19, 2010. Guy Fieri found a Truckee burger operation doing things the right way — fresh beef, hand-formed, cooked to order — in a market where the competition is mostly chain restaurants and the independent options earn their following through quality alone.

What to Eat
Fresh-ground beef burgers built to order, with a topping list that covers both the classics and the creative options worth trying. The Green Chile Cheeseburger is the New Mexico-influenced build that earns its place on a California mountain menu. The Mushroom Swiss Burger is the earthy, satisfying option most regulars come back for. The Hand-Cut Fries and Onion Rings are the sides worth adding to any order.
