    11/22/2025 - There's no where to sit while you wait. That definitely doesn't stop a line from forming.
    Mikhail H.

    I had been looking forward to trying them out for quite a few years. I am out and about a lot, but truly have to eat after a performance versus before. They close fairly early. I was at a theater seeing a play do a matinee performance. I thought this was a pretty opportune moment for me to get dinner afterwards... I should mention that I was headed to the symphony. I had been craving a hamburger for a few days. This seemed like such a perfect opportunity! I waited in the car, looking over the menu as there is no place to sit down and you walk up to a window to order. A few people ordered and I waited for a clear window. I had just got there and the guy had just asked me what I wanted. A woman had approached, and the guy literally shooed me aside. She was holding a sandwich with bite marks... saying that a grill cheese sandwich that was ordered was not acceptable, weirdly textured and seemed 'steamed'. She said they were in a hurry, she wanted a refund, and she did not have time to wait. Multiple people had to be called over. I was glad that the counter was empty because I could at least lean against the front. The temperature outside was dropping those so, FYI - your friends with chronic pain and/or inflammation like MS, lupus anything... rapid temperature drops or rains etc... we go into incapable of moving VERY fast. He was super apologetic by the time I got to the window. I ordered and it was pretty fast. I definitely appreciated being able to sit in my car right there. I was also very glad I got in when I did, because there was suddenly a line of people ordering as I had started eating my food! I had never had a hamburger before that had zero flavor... I ordered the mushroom swiss and there was not an ounce of seasoning which was pretty insane, because it looked amazing! Those sweet potato waffle fries are out of this world! It was sweet that they gave me a cookie... I guess that's, maybe a thing? It was nice to remember I had it (nice that it came packaged so that I could tuck it in my purse for later) during the symphony also.

    Bacon cheeseburger basket combo is a great deal. You get a burger, fries, cookie, and a drink for only $14.99. Burger was delicious cooked perfectly with crispy bacon and not too much sauce. It's been selling hamburger since 1971 with an old school ambiance. Also, you have to order the FRIES perfectly salty and crunchy they're incredible! Know what you want when you're up at the windows these ladies know how to keep the line moving.

    Went there on a Wednesday around 4:30pm. The staff are so nice he told me it's happy hour and I get free fries or tots. Ordered a deluxe cheese burger and Oreo milk shake. Tots are free. The tots are very good. Burger is juicy but a bit oily. The milk shake was runny and it didn't have much Oreo flavor in it.

    It's been a while since I've eaten here and "old school" burgers sounded like a good thing to get delivered. Kind of pricey compared to what you get even at a fast food chain. Not a ton of toppings on the burgers, but I do like that they have long dogs. Shakes were good and fries/tots were fine. I remember it being really good back in the day but now it's just okay to me. I would probably go elsewhere for a truly loaded burger.

    In the area for a baseball game and drove by and decided to give it a try. My husband used to eat here when he used to work out here and said it used to be good. Food was good, loved the fries and the burger and the fact it came in a meal with cookies too and prices not bad at all! It was busy and the parking lot is small and a little chaotic but that's what happens I guess with good food! We will definitely be back even though we don't live close but it's worth a trip.

    The All American with an extra patty. It's soooo good!! The chocolate shake is a fierce contender between a soda

    The burgers hands down the All American Burger is our favorite. The meat is so tender and is always cooked to perfection and of course you have got to get the friend pickles as well. $

    Extraordinarily classic but amazing drive in. It really is an ICON... kicking butt and taking names... I think there's more than one location (I think I'm oregon city) but I've only gone to the 1 near Milwaukee. Look just think tater tots, corn dogs, fried pickles, skinny fries, and fried mushrooms. At least those are my favorites. You can also get plank fries skinny fries hamburgers for anybody and everybody with any toppings or no toppings. There are seafood options including fried clams. You can get shakes and malts and Sundaes of various flavors including Some seasonal favorites. Soft serve and hand scooped options. Every year on their anniversary they do amazing deals and specials. There's also a once a year special they do on gift cards which is pretty sweet. This year it was 40% off. You do only have 6 months to use them but who can't do that at a place like this??? The line is almost always long but if you don't need to do too many special requests it certainly is easy to place an order online. They also have some cups mugs bottle openers hats and shirts I believe. I always feel like my food is definitely made fresh. During the summer this can be really busy at lunch time and is a great place to go and sit at some picnic tables they have. Parking is strangely plentiful considering the location. It's kind of an icon in this area. And frankly I understand why but I always like to MA and PA diner type places. I've never had a problem with any of the food and the pricing is actually not terrible considering what pricing is going on now. This most recent time I got a float as well as a shake and frankly they were both pretty good. Too much ice cream not enough soda in the float but that's OK live and learn. Basically if you like greasy diner food this is the place for you. I have heard that their seafood spectacular specials are amazing. If you're into that hurry and go check it out. I've heard the shrimp is absolutely fantastic.

Staff was cleaning as they went along. Service was okay. Staff wasnt as welcoming as we felt but our drinks were topped off and we didnt need anything. Menu is a good variety so that was nice having options. We called ahead because we couldn't find the childrens menu and they let us know that they did have one so thats a plus since most establishments dont bother posting their kid's menu. Food was okay. My husband got the ozz sandwhich and it looked good but it was wetter than he anticipated. We learned i like rye bread though, so thats a plus. I ordered the sliders with a side of beer mac but the portion sizes was smaller than I thought it would be? I misread or misinterpreted as hawaiian rolls as in buns but not as in dinner rolls. The beer cheese mac was thick. It was good but had a cloying type of consistency. Tots and fries were good. The kid's chicken tenders and fries were just that. Chicken tenders and fries, so no surprise there. Overall for 2 meals, 1 kids, and 2 sodas, we paid about $60. A bit higher than we guessed for a bar but we enjoy supporting local when we can especially when we know they're active in the community.

It's definitely one of those burgers that lost its way in fusion territory. Maybe some green onions and a kalbi sauce spread instead of marinating because the marinade didn't take. On hindsight, there onions were a light brownish... maybe those were sautéed in sauce as they were the best part of the burger. Either way, it was solid. I'll be back to try the Philly... or something with Kimchi on it at least. The fries saved the 4th star. I didn't get the truffle oil but I got the salt and basil and that was more than enough! Hot and fresh out of the fryer...they were amazing! I'm not a fan of truffle but they can be made without if you request! Definitely getting these again!
