Fake reviews here. 09/27/25
Burgers are bought from Walmart or Costco with fake flame flavor, and then heated up for a quick 5 mins. French fries were an awful mixture of undercooked and overcooked fries which also looked like they were from Walmart or Costco

I highly doubt they even cook the burgers, they just throw them on and make them hot. The flame grilled flavor was very strong.

Don’t believe the fake reviews for this “restaurant” front. $13 for a gas station meal.

the steak was good, pork chops were tasty, overall main course was great. appetizer was cold... no silverware or water. and was given marinara in place of chili. waitress was running literally. understaffed. would still recommend. maybe just not if they are busy

Came in because I have a friend named Barley and thought it'd be funny, ended up eating the most comforting burger in a long time.
I vastly prefer simple, well-done (in both senses of the word) burgers. And I was surprised when my burger was exactly that, being used to other joints over complicating them with sauce which leads to soggy buns and messy eating.

Not the case here! Buns were just right, meat was browned and well done inside, and topped nicely.
The fries were good, solid. Could use a bit more salt but that's just me.

The burger reminded me of something I would make at home in the best way possible. Well executed, pleasant atmosphere and service. Love it!
