    Small fries
    Sven M.

    I love this place. What a great little smash hamburger diner. The fries are heaping and the burgers delicious.

    Another episode of critique from food corner. Let me start by saying if you want tailgate and you don't have one. You need to stop here but you had better come hungry. This is where it's at. I will start off by saying they greet you at the door. The service is a rare gem for this area. Also this is the burger spot in Waynesboro across from old neighborhood Market Walmart. Tonight was dined on Philly cheese steak and a footlong hotdog. When I say yum. Doesn't even come close to how good it is. Their staff is very accommodating and will do their best to help anyway they can. Also can't forget the 2 appetizers. Cowboy bites and crack bites. Let me just say they are heavenly. Just make sure you get the tailgate space to dip them in. I couldn't slow up on em to get you a better picture and they make a fry basket that rivals 5 guys but they can't touch the quality. All I can say is if you haven't tried it. You are missing out.

    This is one of our absolute favorite locations for burgers and fries!! Locally sourced beef, freshly pattied and cooked on the grill behind the bar, can't go wrong. Today, however, I ventured from my normal and, instead, got the Chicken Philly. I was so happy and so was my mouth and belly!! Another cool thing about this local, friendly place is that they employee lots of local high school students and graduates. Great pics up everywhere from professional sports to local high school athletics! Easy to get into, seat yourself, order food with the friendly waitstaff, then pay at the register. Great work being done here at very reasonable, inexpensive prices. Right off route 250 - easy to get to from Staunton, Waynesboro or Charlottesville. Enjoy!!

    You can watch them cook your food!

    They servers know their stuff!! Polite & attentive! Space is limited so go before 12 or after 1300...it gets very crowded during the lunch rush!! Delicious homemade sweet tea! Open at 1100 and close in the evening. ...

    Forget the Five Girls Burgers. TTG is the only place to procure a delicious, juicy, tasty carnivore treat of a burger. If it's just a couple of you sitting down get the small fries, they ain't so small. Beside a fabulous burger they have one of the best service teams found anywhere. I'm in retail and take some of my guys there every now and then to show them what busting your hump and making people happy looks like. Kudos to the wait staff at TTG. You guys are top notch. Family friendly with a sports bar feel. It does get loud when full.

    Grilled chicken & cheeseburger.  Fries not pictured but the small order was HUGE!

    Awesome little joint! Very clean and inviting dining room. Kitchen looks immaculate and there are TVs for the sports fans. Servers and staff are super friendly and the food came out fast!

    Philly cheese steak with everything on it.

    Great portions for the price but nothing special taste-wise. Basic fast food.

    I've passed by this spot a thousand times and never thought to go in--tucked, as it is, in the…read morecorner of a large parking lot and abutted by big box stores, it didn't necessarily call out to me. Well thank goodness I finally decided to nip in to 3rd Generations Grill last evening for a hot meal and a cold beer after a long day. I was quite happy with the experience. From the outside it doesn't look like much, but the dining room is large, open, and features a nice bar at the back with a decent selection of draft beer (sadly no dark options for the porter- and brown ale-loving crowd) and sundry spirits. The walls are plastered with rock & roll posters (they get extra credit for the Ziggy Stardust poster on the left side of the room as you enter) and the space is clean and well lit without being antiseptic and blazing. I think with a larger crowd (it was a bit sparse on my visit) the room could be a bit loud, so if quiet is your thing maybe plan for a low traffic time. After negotiating a workaround for the QR code-based online menu (I deduct a full star if that's my only option for ordering because I think it's poor service), I ordered the Generator burger from my very friendly, helpful, and service-forward bartender. What's great is I told him what I was looking for and he competently guided me to one of the best burgers I've had in a while. Double smashed patty, double bacon, cheese, onion. I added lettuce and tomato because I want to dupe myself into believing I had a vegetable that evening. Comes with side of their hand-cut fries and is a hearty portion of well prepared food. When I say this is a two-handed-eat-over-the-plate-like-a-caveman burger, that's exactly what it is. Thing is a monster of beautiful beef and bacon and cheese (sorry vegans, try again). Oh, and the food came out in good time--not fast food, but good food fast. I have a minor quibble with the fries which, while hand cut and nicely seasoned, were a bit under and kinda soggy. Not inedible, but could be better. I think if they blanched the fries before the final cook they'd achieve a crispier outside with that nice cushy potato centre you want in a French fry. But that's the only quibble. Service: six stars Food: four stars Ambiance: four stars Value: five stars I'll be going back again, for sure. No photos this time because I am a pig man and I tend to eat half my plate before my brain says, "hey! Yelp review inbound!"

The bartender was also server and was very friendly. He is why it is 4 stars. The food was pretty good. My burger was cooked well and the fries were very good. Dad enjoyed his fried shrimp. Bathroom was clean and it wasn't busy for lunch on a Thursday. Looks like they have fun things in the evenings. I would go back if I'm in the area.
