    Wow! I stopped in for a late lunch and I was concerned that I was the only customer but I have say…read morethat I was not disappointed at all!! They have a very simple menu of basically burgers and tacos with fries or onion rings but the simplicity is part of the magic. I first had the Double Flame Burger with all of the standard 7 toppings and two pieces of pepper jack cheese. It was delicious! I don't like a big thick burger patty that is pink inside. I love the caramelized smashed patties with all of the fresh toppings. I also got the Small fries which was a plentiful portion for one person. Next I had to try one of their customer favorites they call the "loose taco". On the menu they call them Tacos Deluxe and they put a flour tortilla on the griddle and white cheese that cooks crispy around the edges then your meat -they recommended the chicken because it is a customer favorite and it was fantastic. I definitely can't wait to come back and have more with steak and pork too. Winner, winner chicken dinner.

There is rom for about forty guests. The food is simple American a Mexican food made well, delicious and a healthy sized portion. I ordered a BLT and spicy fries. The bacon was freshly fried and a lot of it. Tomato and lettuce was fresh and delicious. My wife ordered the chicken taco and loved every bite. The flour tortilla was homemade! This is a pleasant surprise on a beautiful drive in the Bluegrass countryside.

    This is a review I hate like heck to write but I believe in reporting the truth. We found this…read moreunknown hideaway 2 years ago. It was amazing. Fresh food, huge portions, strong drinks, just a very out of the ordinary place. Good music, etc. We invited friends to dinner tonight and everything was straight up bad. The pork steak used to be huge, thick and delicious. What came out tonight for our friend was half the size, 1/8 inch thick and cooked to death. Hamburgers are no longer fresh, but frozen and flavorless. Drink portions were completely off. I was served a drink in a large solo cup, no alcohol to be found. I've been telling everyone what a great spot this was for 2 years. Now I am eating my words. Don't know what has happened but it's all been bad. Wait staff is still great but the quality of the food is trash. Sad to say but so long Waterfront Grille. It was fun while it lasted.

The older woman told us a couple people didn't show up to work, so that justifies cold food? unacceptable food and service. I don't get it, my wife's hamburger and fries were horrible and COLD, why. She didn't even eat it. Amother gals chili was cold, and served without a spoon! I hear people who ordered the catfish was at least warm, not served hot! WHY????????? I did not pay my bill, they deserved nothing!!!!!!

    I went to this restaurant about a week ago. The food did not disappoint!! It was fantastic. I'm a…read moresauce guy so I chose to have the teriyaki chicken with the medium spice to it and it was perfect, I chose to have the noodles with mine. My wife had the orange chicken with fried rice, very tasty as well. We chose to have the pot stickers for an appetizer and they were delicious. We will definitely be going back for some great food. The staff helped us pick out our entrees, next time we will try something new. The ambiance was ok, nothing special though.

    My experience with this Teriyaki Madness location wasn't the best…read more I placed a call in order for pickup/ Teriyaki chicken with noodles and veggies. When I arrived I paid and doubled checked my food before leaving. I noticed my noodles were extremely dry so I ask for more stir fry sauce. Even though I was willing to pay for it, the manger smirked in my face, told me he can't sell me any story fry sauce. I'm not sure why he was being nasty but the energy was weird. What frustrated me was the fact, that even though I was willing to pay for more sauce on the noodles, he declined to "sell me the sauce" but he didn't even offer to simply add more sauce on the noodles for me. I didn't ask for anything free, I was willing to pay and I'm a regular customer, but not after that visit. I hadn't left the store yet, the food wasn't as advertised nor to my liking, on top of me being a regular customer. Coming from Las Vegas, I've never had this sort of restaurant experience with Teriyaki Madness. The food is always consistent and anytime there's any issues, the restaurant resolves them quickly. My recommendation to this new Teriyaki Madness located in Lexington, KY (HAMBURG) - if you have regular customers who may be dissatisfied with their food do everything in your will to fix the problem head on. This will ensure continued regular customer, improved sales, and guaranteed customer loyalty. So unfortunately I will have to rate this Teriyaki Madness location 1/5 with a recommendation to not visit this location. Thanks

They offer a build your own option as well where you have quite a number of other options of meats and toppings. I have to say the wings were perfectly fried. After trying my husband's salt and pepper wings I ordered the Blackberry Habanero for myself. They had a very nice sweet flavor. I requested a side of the sauce to dip the wings because I really wanted more of the great flavor! Finger licking good! It was a real nice day so we chose to sit in their outdoor area which is covered by triangular canopies. There are picnic style tables and an area for kids to play. Very comfortable area. Our server was great and very attentive. There was no long waits for anything! If you enjoy a good hotdog like I do I recommend you try here. Even if you don't want all the fancy stuff you can just enjoy a simple dog with only the fixing you want! I'll be back for sure!

It was chilly outside so it was a nice surprise when the young lady asked if we wanted to sit by the fireplace. Yes, please!! It was so comfy and warm right there. Our waitress came right over and was so sweet and attentive. I ordered their morning glory burger with the salsa on the side and a salad, and the hubby ordered a cheeseburger with fries. The wait was short and the food was excellent! They forgot to put the salsa on the side for my burger, but it was very good anyway. I'm really starting to enjoy burgers with eggs on them. The salad was enormous! I thought they made a mistake and brought me a $10.00 salad, but no. It was so huge I couldn't finish it, which was a shame because it was so delicious. My hubby said that his was the best burger he's had in a very long time. We were able to leave quickly after finishing our meal since the waitresses carry portable card readers with them and they check you out right at the table which is so very convenient. When we're back next year for Scarefest we will keep Drake's on our radar!
