I just moved to the area and I really really want a place where I can bring the kids to casual environment where the food is decent and not overpriced. I was hoping this is it, but I will tell you why I simply cannot eat there and find it even difficult to order food and wait for it. They have unfortunately decided to use Pine-Sol on every surface in the place. OK super that it's clean but don't they realize this smell is overwhelming. People simply do not want to eat food while inhaling, extremely strong pine fragrance. It makes everything taste like that strong overwhelming smell. I just don't understand why restaurants do this. I know they don't realize they're losing business with this practice. There's other cleaners that don't reek like this! If the owner sees this, please reply if you choose to use something else that is less strong and I'd be happy to come back.

My brother and I tried this place out for the first time and was impressed by the friendly and helpful staff as well as the delicious food. We both ordered different types of burgers and fries and WOW! Soooo good! Their portions are large and the ingredients taste very fresh and cooked to order. Thank you for an awesome lunch Pit Stop.

It's a really cool 50's classic restaurant theme restaurant. That has decor of paintings, furniture, and a classical car in the dining area. If you have an appreciation of nostalgia, then you will enjoy this place. The staff were very friendly and cooked everything fresh. I had the club sandwich that comes with a side order of fries. The fries were seasoned perfectly with a cajun spice to it. The club sandwich was a nice size and enough to share with someone. I give this place an overall score of 3.5 stars.

I don't normally leave disparaging remarks about small eateries as I feel it could hurt a restaurant. Having said that, what I experienced here was less than thrilling. The food was as average as could be, the burger was small and sloppily put together accompanied by way too many cold french fries. I sat at a table that smelled like it was wiped with an absolutely filthy rag, so I switched tables only to find the same issue at the second. On top of that, the soda machine was dirty and the soda was flat. I don't see myself ever eating here again. Price is normally not an issue because I'll pay handsomely for good food, but for what I paid I did not get that here. I feel like I have to say that the server was fantastic and had a really good energy.

It's all around a great place to eat. The prices are a little high, but the portions and quality match. I suggest their onion rings in their ranch?

Had the American Classic Burger and onion rings. Both were good but so much food I couldn't eat it all, and a tad bit pricey but that everywhere now. Can't get a good burger and side for less than $24. Lots of really good menu options to try; definitely going back to try something else.
