    We ordered 4 sets of fries and this was all that we received. They were very small. No extra fries hidden in the bag.

    Good burgers, but overpriced. $16 for a single patty hamburger (no cheese), regular drink and small fries is outrageous. You can get equally good or better burgers in town for considerably less. I’ll be going somewhere else the next time I’m in the mood for a burger.

    Four things that should be in every to-go order: Ketchup, A Straw, Napkins, and a Tamper-evident seal over the bag, this had none of those. Two stars and not one because food was fine.

    Went here late at night. Its nice that it's open late. It took a really long time for our food to be made and when it was done the staff was irritated when you didnt pick up your food immediately after it was done as if there was some urgency, yet they had taken 10+ minutes to make one burger.
