Beyond the Bun! Zinburger Debuts More Shareable Menu Items

Aug 15, 20242 min read

If you’re in need of crispy fries, creamy milkshakes, and a juicy burger, Zinburger is in your so-called corner.

I usually go for their classic Samburger stacked with applewood smoked bacon, American cheese, lettuce, and Thousand Island dressing. I’m not even a fan of Thousand Island dressing but it’s great on a burger. Grab a root beer float and call it a day!

We’re here to talk about some new menu items, though.

There’s a new “Beyond The Bun” menu at Zinburger, featuring additions such as the Seared Tuna Bowl, Spicy Chipotle Turkey Bowl, Mediterranean Bowl, Spinach & Artichoke Dip, Spicy Tuna & Avocado, Italian Meatballs, Soft Pretzels & Cheese, and a Caesar Salad.

Some of the Tucson Foodie team stopped by the other day and tried a few of the dishes including a couple of cocktails — the Espresso Martini Milkshake and Summer Berry & Yuzu.

The burger joint, created by Fox Restaurant Concepts, is all over the U.S. but opened up first in Tucson back in 2007. There are two locations here in town, a few up north in the Phoenix area, and more sprinkled out in other areas like New Jersey.

Reservations are highly encouraged.

Zinburger is located at 6390 E. Grant Rd. and 1865 E. River Rd. #101. For more information, visit zinburgeraz.com.

More about Matt

At a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.

He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.

If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
