Hands down the best addition to the local area in a while…read more Absolutely desimates ShakeShack which has lost its quality/value and has never been run well from a staff/management standpoint. Meanwhile, owner (Isaac) delivers a personal touch and pride of ownership that is unparalleled. Place is spotless and staff offers phenomenal customer service with a smile. Isaac gives his patrons numerous options. There's the classics done well with high quality ingredients and the phenomenal cultural twists to burgers, chicken sandwiches and even corn dogs. I haven't had a corn dog in forever. This was some kind of tempura-ish fried coating (with a little sweetness to the batter) that I've never seen coupled with a hot dog. I can't wait to go back for the Doritos version. Burger Kraze has already done one promotion for my son's elementary that was a huge hit. The change away from using peanut oil helps broaden the options for those that couldn't enjoy before. Just shows that Isaac has a pulse on the community and that's the touch that you can only find from a local small business owner. Cheers to the success as it's well-deserved for the Rutgers alumni!

The Kraze Cheeseburger is an excellent choice, featuring a flavorful burger sauce that makes it especially memorable. The Bulgogi Burger is another standout, with its spicy mayo bulgogi sauce adding a bold and satisfying kick. The mini Korean corn dog was delicious, and the cheese-filled Potato Corn Dog was outstanding: mozzarella wrapped in a flavorful dough, rolled in diced potatoes, and fried to crisp perfection. The side options are also well worth trying, especially the fries, truffle Parmesan fries, and onion rings. Overall, this is a restaurant I would gladly return to, and I am looking forward to trying the chicken sandwiches next time.

Freddy's in Holmdel has been open 4 months or so & I finally tried it (been only once to one in…read moreKansas). Ordered the bacon double, added L&T - no onion, plus added 1000 island. No extra cost which is nice. Also added Tater Tots in lieu of their fries & a beverage. It was very filling overall, tots were nice & crispy as they should be. Burger itself was a bit over seasoned / perhaps too salty. I did try the burger patties to confirm it wasn't just the bacon. Perhaps it was just a few extra shakes of their seasoning (I'll have to try that burger again to confirm). I also do want to try the chicken sandy's next time & reg fries. Plus their fry sauce (forgot to ask for it). And the frozen custard. Whew so much work to do ;) Inside it was bright & clean, I do see how it may be a bit loud when it's busy though (I went midweek at 2 pm). Will add that to the review when I go at a busier time. Service was fine given it was no where near full. Note that it doesn't have a drive thru. But if you order online they have a "frequent purchase" program & if you order anything frozen they'll keep it in the freezer until pickup.
