Redhead Burger is celebrating National Cheeseburger Day on Friday, Sept. 18, by offering a free classic cheeseburger to guests who say, “I love Redhead Cheeseburgers!” Yes, free.
Owned by two redheaded and burger-enthusiast brothers, the first West Coast location of Redhead Burger (pictured in the main photo) serves perfectly portioned smashburgers, fresh cut fries, tater tots, milkshakes and more.
Redhead Burger is located at The Grand Canal Shoppes at The Venetian Resort Las Vegas on the Las Vegas Strip, and the promotion is 11 a.m. to midnight. More about Redhead Burger: Instagram | TikTok | RedheadBurger.com
Warning: Redhead Burger opened in May, and my friend David Vincent and I stopped in about one month later coincidentally after a Gold’s Gym grand opening in Henderson.
The free cheeseburger is going to be the appetizer because you’ll want to check out the full menu and order the enticing, fulfilling and creative smashburgers (I can’t say no to eggs (yes, eggs) and bacon on cheeseburgers – OK, lettuce, onion and tomatoes, as well).
And save room for the loaded tater tots, fresh cut friends and decadent milkshakes.
