We started going back here after a couple of years pause. They have a good churro and ice cream desert ?Had the burger too, and it wasn't too bad ?

Food was amazing! I had the head chef burger and it was very yummy. Our server Jesslyn was friendly and made sure our drinks were fresh. We love the dog friendly patio and family atmosphere .

Went there to enjoy b-day dinner somewhere close to home, looked at the menu before choosing to eat there and looked good but unfortunately I do not think I'll be coming back. The atmosphere looked appealing, but they seriously need to set something up to eliminate the nuisance of gnats. They were EVERYWHERE, I couldn't eat my food because they were flying inside and around my salad, had to cover my drink with my hand, was so busy swatting them away that I couldn't even enjoy anything. When the lights came on after dark it got worse. I get it we are outside but there was nothing there to even prevent it from happening. The only reason why I gave it a 2 star was because our server was nice, but my friend ordered pretzels with cheese sauce and the buser or 2nd server just brought out dry overcooked pretzels with no sauce. She asked where the sauce was then was told oh they didn't tell you there is no sauce. Whole reason why you order pretzels to eat with sauce not dry, so we decided to have it taken back. 2nd server explained why we didn't want it and come to find out from our original server there WAS sauce. Only thing was she brought it out and it looked like a watery mess. Supposedly because it was turned on 20mins ago? And not thicking..ah ok. It looked so bad that if it was me I wouldn't even have brought it out to the customer. Owner should be embarrssed with the quality. Mini chicken tacos looked like frozen food out of a box fried in deep fryer. Ordered the meemah salad which was good, but grilled chicken was bland and dry plus again I couldn't enjoy it because I had to pick gnats out of my food. Wish I had a better experience as again the menu items sounded good but if I am going to pay those prices I'd take my chances somewhere else. Also if you don't want kids kicking toy blocks in your area or throwing balls around your table then sit in the non turf area closer to the entrance.

I forgot today was Tuesday and was ecstatic to see a 2 for $22 Tuesday deal on the menu. I ordered two and get to take one home for tomorrow's lunch. I asked for the burger to be cooked medium, and it turned out phenomenal. I was expecting something much smaller than I got. This burger was substantial. Very satiating, and flavorful. The staff was very friendly, and the atmosphere here is just great. It's nice to be able to sit outside with their string lights and a nice breeze, plus they have free WiFi which is great because the cell service in the area is horrible. Highly recommend coming here

We have not been here in a couple years because we found it had gone downhill. decided to give it another try because it's 2 for $22 burger Tuesday. My husband had the backyard burger, which was his standard order previously. He said it was still very good but the comeback sauce was quite spicy which it wasn't previously. I ordered the Ramsay medium and my fries well done. My burger was well done and my fries were not. It was a tasty burger though. If they're going to ask how you want your food cooked, but then not do it, why bother? Good value though and ready on time.

Dear Handlebar Diner, you have been on my "Places to Eat" list for a while. Finally made it on a Friday evening. A really nice neighborhood spot for families. Great location by Eastmark, folks can walk to your eatery & enjoy the park. Four of us & a toddler arrived for dinner. Frisco Burger w/ onion rings , Barbacoa Birria Quesadilla w/ fries, Half order of Chicken Nachos, Kids Grilled Cheese w/ fries. Problem#1: No beans or cooked chicken for Nachos. What? Problem #2: No barbacoa beef for the Quesadilla. What? Problem #3: Frisco burger - cold. Sourdough toast - soggy. Onion rings - cold & soggy. Side order of fries - cold. Grilled cheese - cheese was barely melted. Nachos - mediocre. No salsa for Quesadilla or Nachos. They ran out. What? We had a bunch of adults sitting next to us who must of been thinking they were at their neighborhood bar instead of a family friendly hamburger joint. We only saw the server when he told us there wasn't any food. No offerings of drink refills... IF I venrure to this establishment, it will be during the week and maybe when they first open to make sure they have food.

Don't waste your time or money...it seemed like everything was made via microwave. Their food was like their hearts...frozen

So I was playing a softball tournament near by and was tired of the ballpark food. Did a quick search and found this spot. Jammed over there real quick and wow.... the young lady taking our order was great!! Super friendly, super helpful and on top of her customer service skills. Ordered our food I got the cheese steak and wow what a GREAT cheese steak sandwich!! Fries were great and crispy and they're reanch was really good too highly recommend going and ordering in because it's a dope little spot with a great atmosphere. Thanks you guys!!

A friend recommended I try this place so I stopped by. First, make sure you have a phone to scan the code to get to the menu which is a pain to read on a phone. The menu that pops up once in a while on the monitor doesn’t stay there long enough to read it and then you have to wait for it to cycle around. That’s annoying. At $16 a burger I’m sure you can swing printing out the menu in the back of the paper with the code! I gave a third star because the young gal that took my order was very pleasant and helpful. The food was ok and overpriced. Just didn’t have much flavor and don’t let the fries get cold…horrible. Root beer float was just ok as well. Maybe try a better root beer. Sadly not what I was hoping for.
