Sandwiches are huge and messy but they are good. They are very pricey though. Almost 6.00 for a small fry.

The service was good, staff was friendly, speed was par for the time of day- probably took about 5-7 minutes to get my order.
The burger is good, but it's not on the same level as, say, Zombie Burger, Honest Abe's, or Burger Shed. It's about as good as B-Bops at a little higher quality, which begs the question- is it worth $20 for a combo that you can get next door for $11, or a sit-down place for the same price? The portions are generous; I was quite full after eating, but I'm still not able to justify the cost, especially knowing they don't pay staff any more than at the other fast food places.

Went in to try it out. Waited at cash register for 5 minutes. People were cooking. 2 cleaning tables, no acknowledgment or we’ll be with you in a moment. Ended up just leaving. Saved me $35. We’ll try another burger place.

Good hamburger, clean place.. but they had 4 cooks and 4 customers in the place yet it still took them over 20 minutes to get me one hamburger. These guys have gone down hill, something felt off after I ate the hamburger also. Not going back.

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.
Also, give those leftover fries a try as hash browns, home fries, or even as the filling in an omelet.
