    The American bad a$$
    Shannon J.

    Burger was decent but I think the burger itself was a little over cooked and coups have used a little more seasoning but onion rings were good and the mixed drinks are good as well . The ambiance is more like a sports bar ish kind of place . It's crazy a place named burgers and beer don't have beer on tap I found that to be unusual . But overall the restaurant is good and had a good experience .

    some of the best burgers you will find. Nothing fancy with the decor just good food and service. If the food is good you don't need all the fancy stuff decor. The menu has a burger for everyone to pick and enough variety to make you want a return trip

    The bill.

    Let me begin with, The service was excellent. Natalia was attentive with my Father and myself, and several Tables around us. I haven't been here in years and it's good to see the Wait staff as professional as they have been with an Ambiance to match. So, why the two star review? The food, I ordered the buffalo blue bird. It's a fried Chicken sandwich dressed with Buffalo sauce and gourmet blue cheese crumbles, with an order of steak fries. I've had this before and it was a pretty good classic. I started with the steak fries, first few were warm, followed by a scorcher. An absolute fire in my mouth. So, I stopped, and let everything cool down a bit before moving onto the sandwich, after a few moments I lift the sandwich up and take one bite, my teeth don't even cut through the chicken by the time my mouth is just covered in hot grease and left over fry oil. So I throw it down and make my way to the restroom to find a quiet spot to shoot off some expletives away from the Children around me. I make my way back, tongue burnt, skin of the roof of my mouth already peeling, lips tingling, with no more taste in my mouth. I couldn't eat it, I was served something that for the first time in my life felt unsafe and So, I was sending it back while notifying why. my server Natalia asked "If I'd like a box?" And replied "No" jokingly adding "I wouldn't likely be able to taste by the time it goes bad anyways". Natalia took away the Plate of napalm and returned quickly with Ice and water for my ailments, which I really appreciated. But then the bill came, and sure enough, the Molten core parading as a sandwich with just teeth marks on the bun. Was on the tab, so I took the bill thinking this was just a misunderstanding up to the bar, and what I can assume is the manager by the different colored red shirt pulled Natalia out to speak with me, and she informed me that Policy states that because I was asked and turned down the gracious offer of a Box, I paid for the sandwich to be thrown away. So I left it on the tab, And paid Graciously for the service, I'm not here to argue with a waitress about a policy she has no control over. Great service, best water and ice in town, two stars. Always Tip your waitstaff.

    After reading lots of positive reviews, I might have gotten my hopes too high. It was good, but not worth a 2nd trip. Our group of 5 was happy enough, but we left feeling greasy. To their credit, there are lots of options, and it took awhile to decide as many sounded good. In the end, I went with the Hot Head, two others went with the Sweet Ringer and two others ordered custom. The burgers were a good size, but the other ingredients seemed to just miss it (apart from the bacon which was awesome). For example, the grilled pineapple seemed like it was just a ring of pineapple pulled out of a can and slapped on a grill. Ok, but not worth writing home about. Unfortunately, the curly fries and the buns were super greasy. The tots however, were crispy and well salted. This place is ok if you're looking for an ok burger with friends, especially if you're sticking to the Kankakee area, but there are better burgers out there.

We sat at the bar and the bartender is super attentive 1 o'clock in the afternoon on a Thursday and it's not very busy The music is decent not too loud. There are a lot of TVs. We ordered Reuben combo with pastrami and corned beef with a side of macaroni and cheese and we also ordered a side of the cornbread casserole just because it's something unique and different to try. As for the sandwich we both enjoyed it although it's a little smoky Mac & cheese is okay. It definitely could use green onions on top to dress it And the cornbread casserole is a homemade cornbread that's soft with like a kind of cream filling and loaded with corn it was my least favorite We also ordered a couple old-fashioned.

Ambiance, food, drinks and service were all top notch! We sat under the massive old timey stained glass chandelier at the big community table. What a neat idea. I had the bison burger. Perfectly seasoned and cooked to a beautiful medium just as I requested. The coleslaw had a bit too much onion, but it was still good. My Mom had tots with the trio wrap. It was so deliciously smokey. And a "fall off the porch" drink that was just peachy and not too strong for her. But Beau was the shining star of our visit. He took time to go over the menu and make suggestions. And was very attentive to refill our waters and check in after we had our first few bites without hovering. I will definitely be back soon to try the wings!

No trouble getting a table but the bar area was pretty full. Our server was fast and professional. She nailed everyone's drink and food orders with no issues. Food came out fast and hot as well. Tough to do with 10 people at a table. I ordered the Honey Glazed chicken. It was pretty good but the chicken had a few chewy spots. Flavor was great though. The glaze was sweet but not overpowering. 2nd night I ordered the Parmesan chicken. That chicken was great but o didn't care for the pasta it was served on. Flavor was good but just not my thing. Service was great both nights. Pricing is fair as well. Recommend if you're in the area and looking for something different than your typical nationwide chain.

Service was slow -- to non existent -- at best. We ordered two saganashkees that were bland, with little to no crust. The server said he has never served two at once before, so I guess we loose. I ordered the Poke. It too was bland and some of the tuna was hard!! Yes, hard!! The serving included a dollop of guacamole that had no business on the plate, in my opinion. Chunks of avocado, that I thought I was getting, fine, but not a traditional guacamole. Not good. Three of the four persons at our table ordered burgers and were all equally disappointing. It seemed like the burgers were diced up like it we to get used like in chili. But then, there tried to make a hamburger out of it!! Really weird. The taste was good, but unmanageable as a hamburger. One of the persons at our table ordered a shrimp appetizer. He said it was "ok". This restaurant has a nice atmosphere and is quite comfortable and the beer is okay. But, that's all it has going for it. Our previous visit a few years ago was much more enjoyable. We see no reason to return.

A place mostly frequented by locals, but some fans come from afar. The prices are pretty good, even after all these years it seems, and you can get a lot for not a lot. A big time popular place in the summer around here. It's a classic but it still gets quite a few people, and there's usually a line. The food is pretty much simple and there's nothing really special. It's about $3 for a pretzel, including a side of cheese. Slightly better than those boxed frozen ones. Most of the draw is the hot dogs. These are basic looking, and can come with their signature chili sauce. Also ice cream. They have the required root beer floats. Burgers are another of the eats. The stuff usually comes out pretty fast, which is great for how busy it can get. Have the best experience here in the summer when it's warmer and you can sit on the outside tables and eat the nostalgic food. It's pretty good prices for what they have. This isn't great, but it's pretty okay for around here though.
