    IMPOSSIBLE MELT
    Lil W.

    Impossible melt was good but not worth $10 The cheese fries were 5/10 Could've been more crispy and flavorful.

    Don S.

    It was a good hamburger and the tater tots were great. Overall a good experience and I would eat here again if I am in the area. Also the staff was very friendly and helpful.

    CRISPY CHICKEN - CRAFT YOUR OWN, CAJUN TATER TOTS, REGULAR MILKSHAKE - CHOCOLATE
    Kaitlin M.

    Ordered online and was ready when I walked in. Chicken was tasty and crispy. Shake was great. Didn't care for the sauce that came with the Cajun tots but liked the seasoning on the tots themselves

    The Menu.. Not just burgers.
    Kitaya S.

    Great tasting food. Everything is made fresh when you order, but still served quick. Many options for toppings, and has quite a variety of items- it's not just burgers. I've been here twice so far, and I will be coming back! My only negative- they play "Oldies" music.

    Plenty of burger choices and hotdogs, too.

We parked in front of the restaurant, and were seated immediately. The inside is small, but they also have a nice little patio area if the weather is right. We chose to sit inside this time. The bar is nice as well. They were busy but the food and drinks come out quickly, so that helps. I started with the signature drink according to the server. It was called the lucky bucket, and it's a spicy strawberry margarita. It definitely has a kick to it, with good flavor. I ordered the special, which was a chicken Parmesan sandwich, made with a homemade marinara sauce, mozzarella and Parmesan cheese, and banana peppers. It was delicious!!! My husband had the fried chicken club sandwich. They originally brought out the wrong sandwich for him, so the picture is of a different sandwich, but once corrected, he said it was good. He ate the other half of my sandwich and liked it better! We also shared the classic fries and a slice of the vanilla cheesecake with homemade berry compote for dessert. Great service. Delicious food. We will be back to try the burgers! They looked and smelled amazing too...

My fiancé and I stumbled upon a picture of the pork tenderloin sandwich from Bubba's 33 and he literally couldn't get it out of his head. So off we went! We went late-ish on a Sunday. There was no wait. Host and server were absolutely amazing. The place is large and very busy with neon and screens. Awesome loud music selection. I'm sure sports ball was playing somewhere along with music videos that appealed to our Gen X and millennial selves. The server let us know that they specialize in scratch made food for everyone and the menu backs it up. We ordered fried pickles with their house made ranch. They were great! Thin sliced and crispy batter! The ranch can hold its own! My fiancé ordered the pork tenderloin sandwich with loaded fire fries. I ordered the shrimp tacos with loaded seasoned fries. My plate came out and the manager Chris explained that they had unfortunately ran out of pork loin BUT they managed to cut and tenderize a piece for us and the food was on its way! He apologized and gave us a few coupons for apps. I told him I really appreciated that they actually put in the effort because that's specifically why we came and he could've easily told us they were out! Our server also apologized for the wait. Everyone was so attentive! The food was well worth the wait. It was fresh and tasty! The fire fries are INDEED fiery, so beware! Great taste and portion sizes. We will definitely be back to try more!

I wasn't too hungry so i just got chicken tenders and a side salad. The side salad was huge and had so many toppings on it. The dressing tasted a little weird - I got the balsamic but it tasted like there was a bit of bbq taste to it. The chicken tenders were thick and came with a side of ranch and honey mustard which were tasty. Both were pretty average. Overall this place was pretty slow for not having many people there. The food and drinks were average and cheap. If i was in the area i probably would try some place different and keep this place in mind as a last resort.
