The portions are smaller than what I would have thought for the price although I know food costs on everything have gone up. I would recommend doing the two meats or three meets with the slight cost difference

Most amazing fries ever. How were they so crispy and delicious after I drove home 20 minutes. Plus that a big huge delicious burger. You guys are the best. And it was super busy there probably because of the Superbowl and the staff we're top notch too.

Feels nostalgic walking in the doors. Back to the 90s. The interior is fairly the same as I remembered. Walk in, order, grab your drink, and sit down. For those with allergies there is a list you can find if you Google it. Very little is gluten free but they do have good options for dairy free and egg free. I do have to laugh though because they didn't take off the buttered bread, which isn't mentioned on the menu. Lastly, Dave sold out. Nice guy and I don't blame...
