This was a unplanned stop, but I don't regreted at all. The service was excellent, from placing the order to the table serving. The burgers were delicious and the athmosphere very pleasant. It was an delicious experience, much better than any more fine or expensive restaurants. Highly recommended for a good Burger and a malt.

The food was Awesome, and the manager was amazing. Very kind, and generous. I definitely recommend the burger and onion rings. Also, the malts are delicious.

First time here.! The burgers & cheese curds were good, but the MALT (and the shake my wife got) were GREAT!Will definitely be back!

Fun decor, food came out quickly. I’m kind of an ice cream-aholic and this was the best malt I’ve ever had. I highly recommend the el jefe malt! Burger was good. Cheese curds are on point. Wasn’t super busy when we went (weekday lunch time) which surprises me given how great everything was. If you are looking for a good burger & shake place, this is it. I love Freddy’s and Shake Shack but I would put this place ahead of them.

Good music, friendly staff, delicious food! Service was quick, they brought the food right to the table for us and it was fresh and hot. They have classic and unique malt flavors and I have yet to be disappointed. This time I opted for the deep fried twinkie malt and was not let down. I don't know how they do it, but the ultimate grilled cheese has the best cheese pull I've ever experienced! Highly recommend checking it out.

The owner himself took our order, which is so nice to see. The burger was perfect and the malt, the 12 ounce was the perfect size. Delicious all around!!

It was my first time at this place. The atmosphere was casual with seating for over a hundred people. It looks very small from outside, but very spacious inside. A very nice, well mannered young man took my order and had the food ready in a short amount of time. I had the curds and the chocolate and coffee malt. Both were good tasting.

Great Fathers day stop with the family. First time stopping, staff was very helpful with food questions. My spicy burger was great combo with cheese curds and a malt. Like the vibe and the manager made us feel like regulars. The peanut butter loves malt was great with the added butter fingers. The best onion rins around. We will come here again and i highly recommend

Came here on Father's day for the 1st time. The malts are AMAZING. So so good. The food was just as impressive. Employees are knowledgeable and very nice. Honestly better service than many restaurants in the area. I will definitely recommend to everyone I know.

It's a great place for a quick delicious meal. I do find it a little off that they rush you through the line, but it works! Just know what you want and you will get it.

Everyone here is always super friendly and the food is very good. I feel it's a bit overpriced but honestly not enough to even lose half a star. Keep up the great work, guys!
