    Cheeesey Burger and French Fries
    Olivia J.

    Love wayback burgers! The food is really good. I always get the cheesy burger with fries. It's pretty greasy, but that's how this kind of food is. Definitely worth getting!

    Upscale McDonald's burger @ a Five Guy's price!!! Ordered the Philly. It has American cheese, onions, and mushrooms. If I had closed my eyes, I would have sworn it was a large size McDonald's burger. I didn't find out that I could add additional toppings until after I paid and was sitting down waiting for my food. Pickle/lettuce/ tomato would have been good on it. Fries were good! A less greasy version, but similar taste to McDonald's. Maybe had I been told, or even offered to customize my burger, I would have had a better experience, but i didn't know since it wad my first time here.

    Single burger, fries.

    This is a delicious burger joint. I attached a picture of the meal I'm about to review. Single burger, mustard, ketchup, lettuce. Fries and vanilla milkshake =$12ish. The beef is fresh but looks bigger than it tastes, if that makes any sense. It's delicious, but worthwhile to get the double patty. The bread (the key to any great sandwich) was fresh, delicious but a bit messy. Very spongy which is good for overall sandwich, but I'm not a fan of the way condiments get absorbed by bread of that nature. Lettuce was romaine lettuce, which I'm not fan of personally, but I will note that it was as fresh as could be and a great piece of lettuce. The fries was perfection. Great and crispy, not soggy with grease, and nice and fresh. Above all else they were NOT over salted - which is my biggest gripe with most burger places. The milkshake was delicious. The perfect balance of sugar in the mix / ice cream. Couldn't have been any better. Minus one star for the cleanliness of the dining area (it wasn't gross, but somewhat cluttered, straw wrappers on the floor, etc) and Pepsi products. (Team Coca-cola baby.) Overall - great place to get a burger, sides and a milkshake at an affordable price.

    Wayback Burger is a hybrid between an old-time drive-in and modern fast food. They specialize in burgers, but also have chicken sandwiches, hot dogs, and salads. If you're watching your calories, be aware pretty much every option is a double-burger or larger even if the menu doesn't say so. The food is reasonably tasty, but nothing to write home about. (Yes, I see the irony of that statement in a written review.) Prices are not cheap, but not bad. The staff is friendly and helpful, as well.

    Burgers are delicious and freshly made to order. Great place for lunch, not a lot of seating at some locations.

    Took about 10 minutes to get our food which I hear is average for Jake's because they make everything to order.

What a fun menu--eggplant parm, clam strips, and plenty of classics like burgers, chicken, wraps, etc. I was excited to order! My clam strips dinner was a bit on the pricier side but I was happy to pay it for the amount of food I got. The clam strips were kind of tiny but that's alright for this time of year, I didn't mind. Quick service and nice booth seating. Had a great time here and will definitely try to be back to this chain next time I'm in this part of the state.

I ordered the crispy fish sandwich, and he went with a breakfast sandwich with fries, plus a hot dog. The fish sandwich was pretty good overall, though I felt like there was a bit too much bread for the size of the fish. It came with lettuce and tomatoes, which complemented it nicely. The breakfast sandwich had eggs, sausage, and that Kaiser roll he'd been raving about--and I have to admit, it *was* good. That said, I think I would've enjoyed it even more if we'd gone earlier in the day for breakfast rather than a late lunch, so we'll definitely be back to try it again in the morning. The hot dog, topped with cheese and bacon bits, was just okay--nothing particularly special. The fries, on the other hand, were a highlight: crispy and well-seasoned. Service was fast, and place was like any other fast food place.

    While running a very quick errand at the CT Post Mall, I decided to order takeout from Johnny…read moreRockets. I've passed this establishment too many times to count, but it's never been a thought. I recently saw someone review their food, and it looked pretty good, so since I was in the area, I decided to give them a try. I placed my order via DoorDash because I had credits, but the restaurant does not allow you to make requests through the app. So I placed my order, and immediately asked the young lady at the counter for the adjustments. For me, that was replacing the beef patty with an impossible patty. There was an up charge of $2, which I paid for with cash. To my surprise, french fries are not automatically included. I didn't realize this, as I was placing my order. When I made the selection, I thought it was just showing me the included sides to select from. Had I known they were extra, I would not have ordered them as I'm not a french fry fan. They have a limited time burger, which is a standard cheeseburger with jalapeño poppers, added on. Very interesting. I like jalapeño poppers, I like burgers, so why not? It was really good. It added a slight kick to the burger, and the cheese within the poppers added an extra layer of creaminess. The fries were standard shoestring fries, not my favorite cut, so if I return, I do not see myself ordering them. But, they have vegan milkshakes. I ordered strawberry and they only come in one size. It was really good. Some vegan shakes automatically perform as vegan. But this one almost tasted as if it were made from dairy milk. I'm not a vegan, so if they made a mistake, I'm not affected, but anyone who may be vegan or have lactose issues may want to just verify & confirm that they're being served the vegan version. Although it's in the food court, they have separate seating with that 1950s or 60s aesthetic. But there's also ample seating throughout the food court. It's noisy and there is a lot of traffic, but it's located in a mall, and it is holiday season. If I find myself wanting a specialty burger, with an impossible patty, I would return. Or during warmer months, if I want a quality vegan shake, I will keep them in mind.

    The only reason I ate here was for nostalgia purposes. I should've declined the offer. My burger…read morebun was burnt on the top and bottom, the patty itself, well let's just say McDonald's would've left a better feeling going down the gullet. Most of the fries were hard, just from the first bite I wished I didn't bother to order them. My friend's chicken club was a much better option. She enjoyed her sandwich and the milkshake. At least one of us did. The cashier/server was sweet, I wanted to mention that since it can't be easy maintaining a pleasant demeanor in a mall fast food court on the weekend. Next time I'll walk past this burger place.
