- ASAtheel Sarsam3 days ago5.0although it's a chain restaurant, but our server was an angel. The feed is really good. a gold star for Gold Star
- JEJeanne EisenhutAug 8, 20265.0We visited this restaurant for the first time during Burger Week and we're impressed by the cleanliness of the space, the friendless of our server Priscilla and the generous burger and screeching hot fries...for $8! My husband got the burger that has a generous pile of chili on it and loved it. The bacon cheeseburger is juicy and delicious. Priscilla came by often to refill our drinks and clear our table. Since then, we have gotten the burgers as a takeout and returned again yesterday. We were not disappointed. We'll be back!
