    Tots and cheeseburger
    David N.

    From the second I stepped in this place, I was taken back 50 years to a better time. I was back at Lou's or Bill' drive in, or maybe an old DQ. What's not to love? The cheeseburger was juicy and veggies were fresh. Tots hot and crispy. Dr. Pepper was tasty and had the good ice! What are you waiting for? Go!

    Steak sandwich
    Keith H.

    For a very long time I've gone to this place and either gotten the steak sandwich like you see here or a burger and every time I go, the guy who I think is the owner is always greeting. Everyone that walks in has very friendly and polite. Today when I went to go get this steak sandwich, it seemed like a very young crew that was in there but no big deal because I knew the steak sandwich was going to be delicious just like it is. But the guy who took my order didn't say hello. Didn't really do anything and it took him a few moments to get to the counter because he was too busy. Joking around with his coworkers. I let that one roll off my back, grab my drink and sat down and wait for my food and as I'm waiting the next group of people come in and he's very attentive and giving warm greetings and everything. Consistency is key especially when it comes to people coming in and patronizing the business. For the guy that took my order, I say to you please be attentive to everyone that comes in and just give a warm greeting. That's one of the main things that keeps me coming to Mr. Frost is over any of the other burger joints in the city. Please work on this.

    Booth seating, small inside

    I'm still a huge fan of Frosty's. I don't know if it's the warm welcome from the charming man in apron taking orders. Or if it's the cute jukebox and simple seating but this place just feels good. I love the fish sandwich so much that I don't typically try anything else, but this time I tried the fried burrito and it was satisfying. Fish sandwich, fries, large soda and burrito came in about 20 bucks. This is great quick food at fair pricing and relaxing atmosphere.

    Chili Cheese Dog
    Adam H.

    Good stuff. Old school. The burger was exceptional, as were the tots and chili cheese dog. The black cow is also divine. Service is friendly, and the place has a retro feel ... especially the outside bathrooms.

    Great Food and Fast Service - With a place like this there's no reason to ever go to a chain fast food restaurant. Tater tots were crispy. Hotdog was delicious and the homemade root beer was out of this world. I'd come here just for that.

    Ate here for the first time today. Been around since 1954! It's really cool because it looks like it's all the original tile and tables etc! Super nice guy working the counter, owners son I think. Fast service! It gets very busy so go early! We had the old fashion double cheese burger added Mayo and mustard, fries and famous root beer! All delicious!!! Definitely going back and trying more stuff.

    Hickory burger n tots!

    Are y'all just closed temporary?

    Yes. Just for this week. Back at it on Tuesday

    Are y'all open today?

    I’m sorry. We are closed until Tuesday. Family stuff to take care of. Hope to see you soon… Read more

    Can you tape a note to your door so people will know? It would be very helpful. 🙂

    I’ll be sure to do that the next time. Sorry it Was an impromptu closing with my father in law being careflighted to Harris Methodist. Possibly a for sale sign taped to the door by summers end

    It's 1230 on Saturday, March 26 and it looks like you're closed I hope you're not closed permanently😞?

    We are closed today for a family event. Be back on Tuesday.

    So it says that y'all are open until 10 right now but a couple of weeks ago my girlfriend and I came out on a Thursday evening and nobody was there so now I call before making the drive and nobody is answering. Do y'all just leave whenever?

    No they are just always busy

    Are they closed on Sundays now?

    Yes. We are now closed on sundays and mondays.

    We've come the last two Sunday afternoons because google & yelp say you're open, are you closed on Sundays now?

    My apologies Kasey. We are short staffed right now so we have been closing on sundays to get a little rest and see our families. Always a good idea to call.

    Good morning do y'all have catfish shrimp or any kind of seafood and do y'all sell steak fingers and if so are they breaded or the chicken fried steak…

    We have a fried fish sandwich as well as a shrimp dinner with fries. The steak fingers are breaded, chicken fried steak fingers with cream gravy

    Someone mentioned it was the best burger in Denton, and since I don't remember it being the best…read morewhen I ate here before, I decided to give it another try. My partner in food wanted to try the King Kong against my better judgment. Looking at the photos, it didn't appear conceivable - to make matters worse, he wanted it to go! It came deconstructed. Four HUMONGOUS beef patties and probably a whole pound of bacon and beautifully melted cheddar. The bun was questionable, mostly because it was nowhere near enough bread for all that meat, but I get it, in a challenge situation, I wouldn't want to load up on bread. The patties were well seasoned and firm. I would have preferred medium, but since I was sharing, well done was fine. Not over done and still juicy. It also came with a container full of steak fries! I admittedly put a hurting in the fries, dipping them in the house ranch mixed with the jalapeño ranch. I wanted the fries to be crispier and the ranch to be thicker, but they were delicious nonetheless!! So how much of it did we finish?? I finished one patty with out bread!! My partner finished one and a half patties with sandwich bread. The bun got designated to my leftover patty. Tomorrow's lunch will be a single patty burger with half a pound of bacon!

    We stopped by RG Burgers hoping for one of those hidden-gem burger spots, but overall it was just…read moreokay. The food looked great when it came out -- generous portions and nice presentation -- but the flavor didn't quite live up to the visuals. The burger patties were cooked through but a little dry, and the seasoning was pretty mild. The mushroom and onion topping added some flavor, but the bun felt a bit soggy halfway through. The cheeseburger was fine, but nothing that really stood out. The chili dog had plenty of chili and cheese on top, but the chili itself was a bit bland and heavy. The fries were thick and crunchy at first, but cooled off quickly and lost their crisp. They tasted more like frozen fries than fresh-cut. Service was polite and friendly, though the wait for food felt a little long considering it wasn't busy when we came in. The place has a laid-back, old-school diner vibe, which is nice in theory, but the inside could use a little refresh. It's not bad if you're nearby and craving a burger, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it.

One day I decided to walk from my apartment on Bonnie Brae and Prairie all the way over to TWU, it was a lovely spring day I wanted to get the steps in. Upon walking into Burger Time Machine you are hit with the smell of delicious. If you don't know what that smell is you need to go to Burger Time Machine. On my first visit I had the Star Trek and I was hooked. During the remainder of my time at UNT I ate at Burger Time Machine once a week and have eaten every single burger on the menu. While I was in school it got to the point where the staff on Fridays knew me and I loved it. It was a very great mission I took on to eat every single burger but with a 6 mile round trip from my apartment to Burger Time Machine I felt like eating their was alright.

For lunch, I ordered the #9 Love Affair burger combo with sweet potato fries and added a side of onion rings. The sweet potato fries came in a good portion, which I appreciated. The onion rings, though, were $3.99 for only 6 rings, and that did not feel like a good value. The burger patty itself was the perfect thickness and cooked well, but it had almost no flavor on its own. The only real flavor came from the add-ons I chose, which were egg and pineapple jam. Because of that, the overall flavor just did not match the $22 price tag for lunch. Cool local vibe, decent presentation, but for the price, I expected a lot more flavor.

Came here with my son, who lives just across the parking lot at some urban apartments, and he was giving me his resounding endorsement so off we went. So glad I did! We both ordered the Bodacious Burger, layered in American cheese, bacon, heaping mounds of crispy onion, some grilled jalapeños, pickles, but I chose no BBQ sauce. Damn these burgers are thick thick thick and you can taste the homemade freshness with every bite. No frozen patties premade here. We ordered a single of hand punched fries dusted in parsley, salt, and Pepper. But, our waitress said it was enough for two, and she was spot on! Golden crispy fries were delish! I ordered their Old Buffagoat made with Buffalo Trace while my boy had a Vanilla Porter. All in all, great location, extremely friendly and immediate service, and more importantly, and no kidding- goatalicious with every bite!! As always, enjoy and Happy Eating!!
