    Single smash burger
    Chelsea C.

    This small little (mostly take out) burger and wing joint is a hidden gem! The store front is on the corner. They prefer you call ahead, but it was our first time there, so we walked in and ordered. It took about 15 min to get our food. I got a single burger with the special sauce, American cheese (they were out of pepper jack), lettuce, and grilled onion. My husband got the double with American and added lettuce, pickle, mayo, mustard. We got a large fry to share and chipotle ranch sauce to dip the fries. We will definitely return! The burgers were smash burgers and the chimney sauce (special sauce) was unique. It was a little smokey/spicy and zesty. We noticed after we ordered it was .99 wing day! We want to come back to try the wings. Pro tip, get the toast app to earn points when you check in with your phone number at check out.

    Hidden gem in Delaware. Randomly drove by and saw they had 100% beef tallow fries so I had to try it out. One of the best burgers I've had in Columbus. Their whole menu looks good, it's small inside though and I think most people get takeout. But, they also have a craft soda fountain that was also delicious. Honestly great place to visit! I've been back 4-5 more times since finding it.

    Located near downtown Delaware, this tiny and "unassuming" restaurant has some amazing burgers. They only have a couple seats inside the restaurant so I highly recommend ordering in advance and getting your order to go.

    Been wanting to try this place for awhile. Finally we found a time to go. It's on the corner and during peak hours is a little tricky so, we parked in the lot next door. Walked in clean and small a kiosk for self order or they can help you if you have questions. As we ordered people started coming in. Very friendly guy behind the counter was patient and explained the menu. We both ordered burgers. We also ordered an order of waffle fries and onion rings. Waited only like 10-15 minutes. We went back to our car and had our romantic dinner..Lol. Burgers were very good. Nice flavor and fresh toppings. Onion rings were great but I thought for the price it should have been a bigger portion. I think we got like 5 onion rings. And same with the waffle fries not a big portion. All in all everything tasted great. We will try again.

    Read the reviews so wanted to try them while passing by and I'm mad I spent my money! The burger was ok. It wasn't worth it tho! The onion rings were burnt and the hot dog was nasty They only had local sugar cane foundation drinks and the cream soda was nasty! They can sodas was $2 each!! The employees was really nice and explained everything to us! They had everything chicken wings, chicken tenders, onion rings, etc! Charged for bbq sauce and barely any on it when asked for ketchup and more bbq sauce they wanted to charge! Over it It sits on the corner it's really small and they have a small area to sit outside! It was hard to back out of the parking lot! Great concept but was t worth it!

    Single burger. House sauce (do you like pepper? ), lettuce, tomato, pickle, onion. 10/2024

    On an errand to Delaware, I was feeling a burger and this was nearby. For whatever reason - traffic suuuuuucked but I parked on the street and walked up. They have a sign that you can take their food to the bar around the corner! It's lean and mean. The (owner?) was working it solo, and was balancing every person walking in. Speaking loud and clearly, and friendly. The setup is obvious and simple - not a crazy menu, no complex options. Burgers, dogs, and wings. This visit - burger and rings (and a side of that house sauce). The sauce IS peppery - I loved it, but you've been warned. They make a good burger (steam a good ham?) - they're not a "everyone come in and sit down" place - they have a single table and two benches. So prepare to go (I lucked out). Or hit that bar nearby if they're open. Basically - it's a great little burger joint.

    Single with everything but special sauce.  Maybe next time

And I think that might have been our downfall. We went the breakfast route and started with a Cinnamon roll made right on the griddle. It created this crispy char that gave the roll more of a funnel cake texture. Unique,and the icing definitely enhances it (as it does most cinnamon rolls). Their special breakfast sandwich, "The Morning Wake-up" touts a "2x the size English Muffin" and they were not lying. This sandwich had cheese, multiple meats and vegetables, and I needed to take half of it home due to sheer size. What it didn't have... sauce. What it needed... sauce, syrup, aioli or something to lubricate all of those toppings. The breakfast potatoes on the side needed salt/seasoning/sauce, too, to be more to my liking. It was a similar experience with my wife's Reuben and the fries that she ordered; the sandwich had its moments, but it made me wish one of us got a burger like most of the other patrons.

Backstretch is super casual (given Ohio Wesleyan is nearby - its almost a college/town bar) but great to come in a sit at the bar or one of their booths. It isnt big, maybe 15-20 bar stools and 12 booths and 1-2 tables. This time we picked a booth and a great server (Jacobi) helped us right away. Fun part of backstretch is the staff. Servers are friendly, you can watch the cooks prepare your food, and they have a full bar. Note they dont have many draft beer options, but servers tried hard to get us something we liked. Food here is fresh off the grill and tastes like home cooked food - from their Reuben(which was amazing) to Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich (has kick but so good) - you cant go wrong. This time we added Tots, Mac and Cheese, and the Deviled eggs (most sandwiches are served with a deviled egg - tasty). We also tried Jacobi recommendation of Hencock Tots - wing sauce - cheese and bacon. Should have just made that my meal. Amazing. They dont take reservations but unless there is an event in downtown, you can usually walk in for dinner. This was our third visit in 60 days! Ready to go back - thanks Jacobi for a fun night and see you all soon.

The best part of the meal was the appetizer - sautéd mushroom toast - really tasty! I don't recommend the Steak au poivre (a filet with sauce = supposed to be a classic French dish of pan-seared steak, traditionally filet mignon, crusted with coarsely cracked peppercorns and served with a rich, creamy pan sauce made from the pan drippings, cognac, and heavy cream.) - cut of meat was definitely not tender enough as filet should be, sauce was okay but not "au poive" & oddly it was served with traditional french fries which I found a mismatch - I would not order that again. Wife ordered the evening special Flounder - it was pretty good. We'll go back sometime & try some other things. Most people around us were ordering sandwiches, and they looked pretty amazing.

Speaking of which, I had the filet medallions with said reduction, and let me just say: if I could marry a sauce, this would be "the one." My friend ordered the scallops with risotto, and she ate every last grain of rice like she was guarding treasure. Special shoutout to Matt, the manager, who went above and beyond to accommodate my many food allergies without making me feel like "that" customer. Instead, he treated it like a fun culinary puzzle to solve. Food? Phenomenal! Service? Flawless! Atmosphere? Just the right mix of cool and comfortable. Regrets?

I especially loved their salsas, they were both packed full of flavor and the red one had a nice kick. We enjoyed all of the tacos, al pastor, steak, campechanos, and quesa birria. They were a good size and very flavorful. The chori queso was pretty good, it wasn't overly greasy like some others I've had and the chips were fresh. Overall this seems like it will be a great spot, Delaware has plenty of Mexican Restaurants to choose from but Hacienda offers some different options I haven't seen at the others.
