    Didn't even place an order. As soon as I pulled up to the drive thru, the cashier says " hold up, gimme a second. I just reversed. Checkers needs to check on their staff

    Chili Dog

    This was my first visit at this location and I must say the food could have been way better. I ordered a checker burger without cheese, and the ended up putting cheese on my sandwich anyways. I ordered a chili dog with grilled onions and the chili was some of the worst tasting fast food chili I have ever had. The best part about my visit was the strawberry shake and fries. The customer service as was decent, and the wait time to get my food was not long. The restaurant also looked decently cleaned and workers are wearing masks. Overall, it was okay if your looking for a cheap lunch or meal, but stick to the hamburgers and fries here.

    Ordered a chill stop watermelon slushy. It taste like old rags. Like they just dip the cup in the mop water and fr it. Nasty

Servings of fries are enormous, a large literally comes in its own bag to accommodate it. Topped off with a huge menu of shakes, this place is an absolute treat. Best burger around, in my opinion. A somewhat odd location attached to a convenience store, but don't let that fool you.

I was also happy to know they offered a turkey burger option! It's not Smashburger worthy - but it's a solid option among the burgers, hotdogs, chicken sandwiches, and cheesesteaks on offer. And then they closed. Literally. This summer they closed for a mild renovation - something about the floor and drainage. They said they'd reopen in a month. That was three months ago. Fast forward and they finally re-opened last week. Solid burger freshly cut and fried French fries and onion ring options are available. As well as hotdogs, chicken sandwiches, grilled cheese, and veggie burger as well as a 'legendary' plant based burger. I got my turkey burger and it was delish with Z sauce. So I'm definitely a fan. Prices are closer to $10 than $5 for a burger - but they are freshly prepared and fried to order, which helps the flavor (and price premium). The lobby area was mildly updated - they definitely put in that new floor. They cut part of the wall so it feels more open - but that also exposes the adjoining convenience store. There are literally 8 chairs and 4 tables all alongside the wall so this isn't primarily a dine in location - but it's nice there is a dine in option. Most folks are going to grab and go though - or utilize the myriad delivery options. Welcome back, Z Burger. I'll see you soon.

I've been twice and have received the same service each time. Sundays can be hectic but that's expected for most breakfast and brunch spots . This spot has a big menu which made it hard to choose but everything I've had was really good. The bartender I had was a guy with dreads I believe, and he was very knowledgeable about everything there and he made great drinks. He was very professional and he ran that bar well. I don't know why it took me so long to stop in this spot but I'm glad I did. If you're thinking about going don't think about it anymore-just go.

We tried the Brisket Chilli (Ate it before taking a picture). It was flavorful and hearty. I would certainly try it again. We also tried the Fried Green Tomato Caprese. This was amazing. 10/10. I ate all of the greens and scraps. My plate didn't need to be washed afterwards. Lol. Lastly, we tried the Brisket over sautéed potatoes with peppers, onions, salsa Verde and questions. Honestly, there was no flavor in this dish at all. None on the Brisket, potatoes or sauce. With a bit of seasoning, this would be really good. The food was hot and fresh. I'll visit again when i'm in the area.

Somehow, I had only been to this place during the winter time, but it is a completely different vibe during the warmer months. The outdoor space is stunning, and everything just feels brighter and happier. The staff are really nice, the patrons are enjoying themselves, and they just have excellent food. My friend and I happen to come during this fashion show event so there were complimentary hors d'oeuvres for everybody present, but we still ordered delicious deviled eggs (I could've eaten a whole tray of them) and had some great cocktails. You know, for the first time ever, I paid attention to a bunch of board games that they have on a shelf. But based on the stuff that's on the shelf in front of them, I am not 100% sure that they are up for grabs, but it still looks cool. Anyone who is in this area should definitely pay them a visit.

My friend and I showed up for a late lunch, and after I stood waiting for service for almost five minutes, the bartender finally came closer to me and said the kitchen was closed. She had been looking at me the entire time and didn't say anything or try to signal to me, so I found her behavior pretty rude. Also, I had previously visited this restaurant for happy hour and found the food and service to be average.

They don't have typical bacon or sausage because "the owners don't eat pork" which really sounds like something more appropriate for their house, and not their restaurant business on Rhode island ave. The "chicken sausage" was a shriveled up piece of chicken paste that they cooked in the microwave. I ordered scrambled eggs, and when they came out, they had that crust that scrambled eggs get when they sit out after being cooked. The grits were lumpy and outside of the cheese sauce they put on the top - had no flavor. The French toast tasted like milk eggs and burnt grill. And the pancakes, were very obviously pre made and microwaved. Additionally - the meal I ordered is listed to come with a bread, eggs, a side and a meat. I asked for bacon, and was told the owners don't eat pork. I asked for the chicken sausage.. 5 minutes later the server asked me if I wanted the sausage spicy or not. Then when she brought the bill, there was a $4 up charge for spicy sausage that she neither told me, nor was it on the menu. And to make matters worse - the sausages were not spicy and were actually just flat out nasty. This is a SAD excuse for a restaurant. I'm sad that I spent calories walking there and dollars eating there.

Total came out to approximately $40. What's hot - Menu. Pretty decent menu. There are vegan options, as well. That you can customize your burger, such as substituting a lettuce wrap for the bun, is also great. - Packaging. Aside from the packaging of the fries, which is explained below, the burgers were wrapped up well. They also labeled the wrappers on the outside, so we could tell which one was exactly which order. Helpful. Additionally, my mushroom burger was wrapped well in the lettuce and did not fall apart easily, which I really appreciated, because that's less of a mess. - Quality. The toppings to my burger- tomatoes, onions and lettuce were all fresh. The jalapeños were decently spicy and their spicy relish on their fiery fries are pretty good, as well. Good flavor. - Service. Our order was ready within the appropriate estimated time they gave us. What's not - Fries. Needs work. They're soft and soggy. To be fair, the spicy radish sauce on their fiery fries is pretty spicy and has a good flavor. However, the texture of their fries is a detractor. - Packaging. Their fries were not in a takeaway container. Instead, it was sandwiched between 2 cardboard bowl containers. Messy and another detractor. - Quality. Not the best, but not bad. I've had better. This is not the first place to come to mind when I think of good burgers. - Portions. Not enough to get us full, including the side of fries we ordered. - Price. Given the aforementioned, not good value for money, especially given that we were still hungry afterwards. Final Answer Willing to return, but not a first choice.

We looked up the receipt and realized one of us ordered the similar to their signature- called elevation burger but it came with two patties while I ordered custom with one patty. So I immediately went to the cashier and told that I ordered that but wanted it in the signature- elevation burger instead of my custom which is exactly same as their elevation except 2 patties. The cashier stated she can't do that and I have to pay $4.23 for extra patty. While if I changed it to elevation burger and it's only $1 difference. I know they're able to adjust and change my order to elevation burger without any issue. But unfortunately the cashier refused. So rate for customer satisfaction is none but only can give 1 star. For food itself, 4 stars for fries and 5 stars for burgers. Result 3 stars.
