Great burgers! Came out fast and service was friendly. My…read moredtr said the Memphis burger bbq sauce was tangier rather than sweet. She ate it but she said she wouldn't order again. Hubby ate all the N.O. burger and really enjoyed it. My Lima burger was delish but I ordered the gravy on the side. Don't care for gravy and glad they didn't smother the patty with it. Enjoyed the salad. The fries were good but a tad salty for my taste. FYI, parking only in street or lot. Both places charge. Would return when I'm in town.

The wings were a lil salty for my taste and had to eat them with a side of their garlic dip which I love! Ordered a drink with Tamarindo Smirnoff. It was delicious! Since it was flavored vodka you really couldn't taste the alcohol on that one. They have karaoke Fridays so it was cool to hear ppl sing. The speakers were a bit loud ( reminded me of a club). Overall, good place to hang out.

This place a great decor and we were served popcorn as we were seated. I had a buffalo chicken wrap, my husband had a tenderloin, my oldest had a Caesar wrap, and my youngest had a kids chicken fingers. Everything was delicious and I feel the "macaroni" salad was the star of the show. This came with my wrap and was creamy and delicious with fresh vegetables. I can't wait to get it again. Service was superb!

Jackpot! What a great find. Running into town for a concert…read moreand wanted something quick not near the venue. Only a couple cars in the parking lot on a Tuesday evening but the waitress behind the counter was all smiles. We told her it was our first time and she recommend the burger for the first time over everything else. All the toppings on the list are included and free. I actually was so excited about this. I told her more of what I didn't want to make the list shorter. I got the 1/4 ,patty, all the toppings minus raw onion. Picked my sauces. There was a fry big enough to share with the hubby and he got the Fiend size burger. They have Coca-Cola in glass bottles which was fantastic. The food came out fast and tasted amazing. Nailed it for the burger department. If we lived closer we would be here again and again. Yelp app also had a free scoop of ice cream for them. I think we were the first to see it . Lol

The reason BurgerFiend burgers are better than your average burger joint is they fresh grind and make their own Pattie's. My second tome here I ordered the Fiend Burger with just lettuce tomato and Ketchup so I would be getting a pure taste of the burger. This burger reminds me of what my dad would have thrown on the grill - minus the lighter fluid flavors. I also ordered an order of onion rings pictured here and again not sure if they are made here or brought in frozen but they are wonderfully flavorful and the fact that they tasted handmade (if they ate frozen) speaks to quality of product. I received great service and was impressed to see the owner interacting with some of what I could tell were regular patrons. Living nearby, I might just become one myself. I really enjoyed chatting up the staff and finding out what is on deck for new flavors and food. If you like a hood local place check out BurgerFiend.

We got some Sunday dinner and there was a band playing. As soon as I walk in, I get stopped and get told there's a $5 cover charge. No biggie I explain I called ahead and she directed me to the bar to get my food. (When I ordered over the phone they didn't tell me my total, there's a 4% additional fee for credit cards) The bartender takes my name and goes to grab my food, she comes back with food and total. Of course I didn't have perfect change ready and gave her extra. She took my money to the register and just left me stranded and out to dry. I finally found another employee to right their wrongs, he grabbed her and she went back to the register. She comes back and shoves my change across the bar. She seemed like I was the one being the problem. If this was my "friendly neighbor bar" I'd be calling my realtor.
