- BFBen FarooqOct 1, 20251.0Food was way overpriced and grilled cheese came on upside down hamburger buns. Also it was almost $8 and they didn’t put the toppings on. $18 plus for a large drink small fries and a grilled cheese made that could me made better by a blind person.
- JAJoyce AlonzoSep 18, 20253.0Convenient and busy location. Straightforward menu of burgers and fries plus hot dogs! I always vacillate when it comes to choosing and end up getting a burger anyway. The little burger combo with a little side of fries is a lot of food. My mom and I usually split one but she devoured her little cheeseburger all on her own. She had all the condiments without onions. I got a little hamburger "all the way" but forgot they use a lot of ketchup. The fries are nicely done and is really enough to share, I asked for less salt on it. However, the crew left out the shake and I had to ask for it. Then, sadly I was disappointed by the flavor of the strawberry shake, it seemed to taste so medicinal to soapy, although there was a lot of chopped fruit in it; It might have been exposed or contaminated by whatever cleaning solution used on the prep surfaces. Overall clean interior but bathrooms needed to be cleaned up better or more frequently. Friendly and patient lady at the cash register. Plus free peanut in shell at the entrance.

Our veggie sandwich is not a veggie burger, but truthfully, it can be a mix of whatever you'd like. Choose any combination of our condiments and add cheese for an additional cost.
Our standard veggie is a mix of peppers, onions and mushrooms with or without cheese.
What is the best way to reheat leftover fries?
Leftover fries are excellent reheated in the oven (or Air Fryer). According to Chad Murrell, one of the Five Guys, just pop them in a 350-degree oven for about 10-15 minutes.
