The place is so beautifully done with amazing vibes of the 50's with old time coke advertisements, an old school soda jar fountain, and the southern hospitality that brings a smile to my face. The staff were so sweet and friendly and made us feel like family. The food, WONDERFUL! Burger was cooked perfectly and super flavorful and my daughter loved her chili cheese dog. You know the chef knows what's up when they butterfly the hotdog to get it extra crispy on the griddle. The ice cream was amazing and we walked out there full and happy! Also was an extra perk that we got sodas to go! Thank you to the staff of L&R Soda Bar for giving me yet another reason to want to move to small town Kentucky!

We went to Johnny's even though we live an hour away. It is one of the best hamburgers I have ever had. I also drink out of my Johnny's Big Burger coffee mug every day at my law firm. That YouTube guy with the lame spotty mustache knows absolutely nothing. The tear in the seat? That's thousands of rear ends that have sat in that booth for years enjoying their food. It's like being at home and the ambience is perfect. You want Edison lights and contrived BS? Go eat an overpriced smash burger in Nashville. Want a delicious burger grilled over a bed of onions? Go to Johnny's.

The only thing I can say was absolutely outstanding was the fries don't think I've had better perfect golden crispy exterior while being light and fluffy and not greasy.

Well, turns out that sign got hit by a truck a year or so ago and has been replaced. We learned this after juggling our agenda to come here a day later since they were closed on Sunday. The new sign is cool, but not vintage. But I do like me some snappy service. Years ago we went to a restaurant called Brown's Snappy Service. It possibly started some of our infatuation with places like this with cool signs and history posted all over the walls. We had burgers for breakfast at Ferrell's before 10 a.m. Because why not? The tiny cafe has about seven stools, and both staff and patrons were nicely hospitable and enjoyable to visit with. Also, turns out my dad was at nearby Fort Campbell for basic training, and that sparked some nice conversation with him once I shared where we were that night. Too bad more and more places like Ferrell's are disappearing.

Fat Shack Review - 8/10…read more I stopped by Fat Shack and here's how it went: Wings: I asked for them double-cooked and they came out perfectly crispy--not to mention, a really good size! Definitely not those skimpy wings you sometimes get. I tried a buffalo sauce I wasn't familiar with, but it wasn't bad at all. Solid 9/10. Fries: Also double-cooked, which gave them a great crunch. I love salty fries, but this batch was a little too salty--though nothing a quick napkin wipe couldn't fix. Still tasty. 8.5/10. Fried Oreos: They were warm and sweet, but tasted just a bit undercooked for my liking. If you like your fried treats a little gooey inside, you might love them! For me, it was a 6/10. Overall: Fat Shack is very convenient, 8/10 from me!

Fat Shack has fully committed to the stoner aesthetic. The menu reads like someone raided a…read moredispensary, got the munchies, and started yelling food ideas into a notebook. Loaded fries? Yep. Monster burgers? Absolutely. Fried everything? You bet. The menu is honestly fantastic. Unfortunately, the execution felt like everyone sampled the product before clocking in. Walked in on a Sunday at lunchtime and the place was emptier than my fridge after a teenage sleepover. Ordered immediately and wandered over to the soda machine. No ice. That's a bold strategy for a restaurant whose entire vibe is "we know you're thirsty." Then the wait began. They said 10 to 15 minutes. They delivered on that promise with the dedication of NASA launching a rover to Mars. Fifteen minutes in an empty restaurant is impressive. Even the DoorDash drivers had that look of, "Bro... I could've grown the potatoes by now." Food finally landed. The burger was actually pretty decent. Fried pickles were solid. The breaded fries wanted to be great, but some were cold and the fryer oil tasted like it had seen every presidential administration this decade. The staff wasn't rude. They also weren't awake enough to be considered enthusiastic. The whole restaurant had the energy of a group project where everyone assumed someone else was doing the work. That's really the story here. Death by a thousand little details. No ice. Slow food. Cold fries. Worn-out fryer oil. Dark dining room. Zero hospitality. Nobody seemed to notice, and that was the biggest disappointment of all. Fat Shack absolutely understands stoner food. What it doesn't understand is that eventually the munchies wear off... and people start noticing the service. I'd probably order it again... through DoorDash... and hope they remember the ice.
