    Cheese fries
    Brian J.

    I still think this is one of the better places in Fort Collins. Had a fat stickler plus the cheese fries. Bring an empty stomach the person working there was very friendly. The food is fresh. It was terrific.

    Yummy!

    Business is open and offering take out and delivery (via grub Hub, Uber Eats, etc. Visited for the first time. Burgers and fries were quite yummy, though I'm sure even tastier if we had been able to eat immediately while it was hot. Definitely have to go back and try their signature sandwiches -- look to be some crazy combinations to explore!!

    a hamburger and french fries

    I have never eaten food so disgustingly delicious. While eating I was throwing up the food cause it was the fastest path from the plate to my mouth. But let's back it up, when i first entered the restaurant i got the most horrendous whiff of pleasure, followed by a joyess greeting from the counter. Twas my first time at this establishment and was given the walk through with care and thought although i didn't buy the big kahuna recommendation i enjoyed my food none the less. Hazzah

    "Chicken fingers"
    Alex W.

    I have left a review before about the chicken being awful and the owner was nice enough to give me a refund and a gift card to give them another shot which I did at the time and it was great, I ordered again tonight and am so let down yet again, the chicken is not chicken fingers they are nuggets, not to mention I was given way over cooked chicken! I pay my hard earned money to order through door dash which adds up and I am given this.. very unhappy with my order and doubt I will be ordering anytime soon

    Crap made sandwich.

    My partner is vegetarian and got a sandwich with chicken tenders so she called back, got a refund and had it re-sent and when it got here it was a really crappy made one with just bread, cold fries and soggy mozzarella sticks. Nothing even close to the veggie sandwich that she ordered. Felt like a sarcastic "screw you" for reordering. Terrible quality.

    This is probably the best place to go after a good night of partying. This is one of the only places that stays open till 4 am. And the food is quality, fried sandwiches. It doesn't get much better than this. I would recommend getting the Fat Gorbies. It will change your life.

    That black string was inside my sandwich

It was Sunday afternoon, but we were after the lunch rush. I was with my husband and daughter for a late lunch. It seemed like there were very few staff on hand. We were greeted and seated promptly, though. I like the layout of the menu with the pictures for their burgers. We started with an order of the cheese curds. It came with chipotle ketchup and we asked for a side of chipotle ranch as well. My daughter chose the Hangover Burger which consisted of a beef burger with American cheese, fried egg, bacon and maple syrup all on a "bun" of two glazed donuts. She paired that with a Unicorn Shake, a mixture of vanilla ice cream, strawberry, cherry and rainbow candy. She loved it! My husband went for the Cream Cheese Jalapeno burger. A beef patty piled high with red onion, shredded lettuce, cream cheese, jalapenos, roasted poblanos, bacon and chipotle aioli. We did question the source for their shredded lettuce and our server explained that it was locally sourced. He thoroughly enjoyed his burger. I went for the Poutine Burger. It was also piled high on a beef patty with greens, red onions, beer-battered cheese curds, demi glace, garlic aioli and crispy sweet potato ribbons. Delish! I would get that one again, for sure. I understand it was due to shorter staff, but the six top behind us was cluttered with the remnants of the previous diners throughout our time there as was a large group space behind it. It seemed as though there were only two people handling customers, food delivery and clean up and they seemed overwhelmed. That was my only caveat for the experience. Our table service and interactions with staff were great though.

They're rated really high -- actually one of the highest-rated restaurants in Fort Collins -- and from a food perspective I don't really understand why. Sliders with sweet potato fries -- fine, nothing extraordinary. Potato éclairs -- . It was really just mashed potatoes with some topping on it. I honestly didn't even finish it. Mountain oysters -- huge letdown. They came out so overcooked they were basically crunchier than potato chips, with the batter crumbling off. I've never had them before, so I didn't get a good representation of how they're supposed to be -- these were just super-cooked batter. On the space: we ended up sitting in three different spots to eat. We went outside by the street first -- super loud, and people were smoking, so we headed back in. The open spot inside was right under the AC and about forty degrees, so we moved to the back area. The back was fine -- covered -- but pretty dirty, with mop buckets and clutter sitting around. The one drink I had was a good value since we were there at happy hour -- some kind of fruity whiskey drink. It was fine, but nothing I'd seek out again. I hate to give such a friendly place a bad review. It'd be a really great spot if you're a college student who wants some cheap bites and a drink -- but honestly it's just bar food, and the ceiling is probably a 4 on a really good day. I wouldn't get excited to head down there, and parking is a bit of a hassle too. Would recommend only if you're after very cheap eats in that area -- check them out for happy hour. But I would not return.

Burger was juicy, flavorful, and the tempura avocados were an interesting twist on the un-fried norm. First couple bites had some crisp but mostly the avocados got soggy halfway through.

The burger was very tasty (a fat bomb) and with the fries was a substantial amount of food - I was only able to eat about half of it all. However, that burger had to be the saltiest burger I've ever eaten. Curious, I went to the DC Oakes website to find nutritional information about my meal and there is no nutritional information. A third-party website (Marcos.menu) offered the following on the Bomb Diggity: Calories: 1200; Protein: 50g; Carbs: 55g; Fat: 85g. Nothing about sodium. My wife is on a sodium-restricted diet and she knows not to order anything like this burger. But still, nutritional information would be nice to know. When do you plan on putting this information on your menu for your customers? I will return to sample more of their beer and food selections.
