    We were pleased. Many years ago, we rode our bikes up to Erie and driving by this place, I…read moreremembered we ate here once we arrived. So we revisited here instead of the other usual place, The Sloppy Duck. Sara's was busy but the line went fast, the gal who took our orders was friendly, and our food was ready quickly. We like the fun decor, the fountain drinks were cold, and our food was hot and good.

    EH. If I could go…read moreback and pick somewhere else to eat, I would. Husband was sick to his stomach afterward. Ice cream is spectacular. But food was pretty bad. My daughter and I split the chicken fingers and they were literally like cardboard. There were 4 in an order and I think we made it through 1.5 before we couldn't choke down anymore. Husband got the turkey burger. Nothing special. The onion rings were good and the fries were good when they were hot. Now that I'm looking at the reviews, I see a lot of people mentioning chili cheese fries and hot dogs. However, I didn't see that posted anywhere. If I had, we would've definitely gotten that. If you can stomach the food, the vibe is pretty cool. The lady who took our order was nice. Seating indoor and outdoor. Luckily it was cooler today, because I don't think there's any air conditioning. Flies were EVERYWHERE. Overall, it's okay. I'm shocked at how many people were there for the meals they serve. The place was packed. Maybe we just ordered the wrong thing. Proceed with caution.

    I know that Mercyhurst has the Culinary Cab, but as far as I know, Ernies is the only truly…read moreconsistent food truck in the Erie, PA scene. Of course, that's a shame, but lets hope that the presence of Ernies leads to more people taking the time to get the permits, figure out the logistics, and take this risk. Located on weekdays during work hours at Perry Square, Ernies is a small, locally-owned food truck that offers up Erie's own Smith hot dogs, Italian sausages, hamburgers, turkey burgers, cheesesteaks, steak wraps, BLTs, pulled pork sandwiches, and more. It's a safe menu, sure, but Ernies makes every meal fresh and made-to-order. This means that it takes a little longer (my Italian sausage with onions and peppers took probably 6-7 minutes), but being so fresh and at an extremely reasonable price of $4, it was well worth the wait - especially considering the guys behind the counter were personable and more than willing to chat with me while they were cooking, as it wasn't too busy. From out of town and need to get a fresh Smith's hot dog (aka the best hot dog on the planet)? Here's your chance. As much as I love Sara's for what it is, I've never liked that their dogs sit on the burners for way too long. Here, you don't have to worry about that. Support these guys. They're local... and if they do well, who knows? We could very well see some more of these pop up downtown (how about an El Canelo taco truck, a place with Lake Erie perch fish tacos, Erie pierogies and pepperoni balls, etc.?).

    5Guys still makes pretty good hamburgers. Service is pretty good compare to other chains such as…read moreMcDonalds, Burger King, or Wendy's. Place is generally clean. If you don't mind forking out the cash, the food is pretty good.

    My favorite part of my first ever Five Guys experience was the fries. They are thick cut but not…read morequite steak fries. They are skins-on, beautifully fried, and delightfully salted. And, you get a LOT of them. Potato sack decor is quite appropriate for this french fry shrine. My not-so-favorite part of this experience was when my little guy saw the community peanut bin. He excitedly asked if he could have some, which I just as excitedly responded: "no." A minute later I turned to find hubs gleefully filling a cardboard boat with peanuts from said petri bin. The burgers are big. I ordered a regular cheeseburger thinking that it would be a single patty but it was two quarter pound patties. That half pound of meat was a lot. Tasty though. I asked for light hot sauce. It. Was. Everywhere. I've included a photo. Messy as all get out. But delicious for a burger just the same. The milkshake was thick and delicious. The employee who took our order said that the milkshakes were the best around so I had to get one. Chocolate. It was quite tasty. There are plenty of milkshake choices including malted milk, salted caramel, strawberry, and more. Outdoor seating with umbrellas topped off the experience which was overall reasonably decent.
