Definitely appreciated that. The fries were thin and crispy just how I like them. Nicely salted and fresh. The milkshake was delicious too -- thick and creamy without being overly heavy. Service was friendly and welcoming, which always makes a difference. Chill area, fast service and nice to eat in your car. Overall, a great meal and I'd happily come back.

The burger was tasty and fries were super hot. You can tell it's a local spot and it's a loved one as people were quickly shuffling in and out with a friendly greeting while we ate.

I'll be back the next time I am in the area!

We were greeted promptly, seated quickly, and our server approached right away to ask what we'd like to drink. We had lemonades, a Reuben with tots, a club sandwich, and soup. Everything was tasty, and the portions were generous. We ended up leaving our leftover food behind since we were going to be on the road the rest of the afternoon. The entire place is wood, adorned with animal hides, heads, bumper stickers, T-shirts, hats, etc. A very rustic feeling. We would return again given the opportunity.

We keep trying to give this place business but they are ALWAYS very rude to customers.

Big, crunchy rings cooked just right. You can't go wrong with an order of them. They have a selection of ice cream, and they advertise bulgogi which I did not try this trip. It is a small business, so you pay a bit more, bit it's not excessive. Also, fresh food takes time to make, so your order might take a bit to be made, but it is worth the wait.

We were hungry and out of time to find another option so just bit it. We get the food and the meat is so undercooked I was sure we would get sick. Luckily not, but dude, your business is burgers (and teriyaki - never a good sign), figure it out! I would leave zero stars but that's not an option. Only way this place has 3.8 stars is because they bought a business that used to be good and then started wrecking it. And BTW, I rarely leave reviews and wouldn't have bothered were it not for the unwelcoming service. Charge a lot and give crappy food, fine, but smile, be friendly and at least pretend like you appreciate your customers ...

The Sour Cream Standoff!…read more I came with my best friend and from the start the energy felt off. She ordered chili cheese fries and asked for a side of sour cream, something I have witnessed her successfully order there before. The server immediately responded with attitude, saying they do not have sour cream. My friend calmly explained she has gotten it before, however the server remained firm and did not offer to check with the kitchen. When the food arrived, there was no sour cream so I politely asked if she had checked with the kitchen. She replied, "We don't have sour cream lady" and walked away without clarifying whether she had actually asked. When she returned, I said I was not trying to be confrontational, just genuinely curious if she had confirmed with the kitchen. She admitted she had not asked because she "knew they did not have any" At that point I asked if she could please just humor me and double check since it would take a few seconds while picking up food. Five minutes later a woman approached the table in full defensive mode and asked, "Are you the one asking for sour cream?" She identified herself as the owner and was immediately combative. The entire restaurant went quiet. It was wildly uncomfortable. She explained that sometimes they did have it but they do not right now. The issue was never about sour cream. It was about the attitude and unprofessional behavior of staff and owner, as well as escalation over something that could have been resolved in a few seconds. Beyond that, the overall experience did not improve. The restaurant felt unclean, the bathrooms were rough, and the food did not make up for the tension. It is one thing to run out of an item. It is another thing entirely to turn a simple question into a public confrontation. Disappointing across the board.
