SWEET BOURBON BACON BURGER
Jon H.

This was my first time at Wayback Burgers in years. I was prompted to stop as I was in the area running errands and got hungry. It was a spontaneous stop (I had no plans on stopping until I was pulling out of the parking lot). From what I remembered, the burger I had prior was big, loaded with toppings, and superior to a typical fast food burger. While the burger tasted somewhere between decent and good (definitely better than McDonalds, BK, Wendy's, etc.) I was a little underwhelmed. The onion ring on my Bourbon Bacon burger was soggy and the bacon wasn't crispy. The medium order of fries came with more than expected and I am a big advocate of malt vinegar on my fries as they have available here. The fries were crispy but also underwhelming flavor wise. It came to right under $15 after tax between the burger and fries which I couldn't really justify for what I was served. Overall, my meal was ok but I think I got my desire to stop at Wayback out of my system for a good while.

I threw this burger in the trash.

Filthy store. Every table had giant nasty bottles of ORANGE ketchup with weird air bubbles in it. It absolutely looked like it had gone bad. The caps were all ripped off seemingly by a feral animal, so they were all sitting open exposed to air in old plastic bottles all covered in dried ketchup and greasy fingerprints. SKETCHUP! Random other condiments were in mismatched store-brand bottles with half ripped labels. The tables and floors were somehow both simultaneously sticky and greasy and just generally gross. The women's bathroom had no toilet paper. Maybe the food was good?...oh friend, no. The food was emphatically not good. The cherry coke was not cherry coke. I have no idea what it was, but I couldn't drink it. My impossible burger melt took almost 30 minutes (even though there were no other customers ahead of me) and my partner's food came out 20 mins after mine (and we needed to ask about it twice and got some mumbles in response). Once it came, he reported that his food was also not very good. My veggie burger was covered in flecks of grill meat and I'm vegetarian so I didn't even try to eat it. My mistake for ordering at all when I saw the state of their cleanliness. I ordered "O-fries" but just got onion rings. When I asked about it the guy who took my order said "you can't get o-fries as a combo" okay....that's fine, but why did you ask me if I wanted to make it a combo when I ordered them then?! Lol. a manager did overhear this and came over to throw some fries on my tray. When I left I saw a line of several delivery drivers milling around wondering why none of their pickup orders were ready. In all I spent $15 on this and threw my food and drink in the trash. I bought a bagel on my way home. I will never, ever go back here.

I'm sorry but I used to love this place but this was a huge disappointment dryed out burgers under cooked chicken sandwich.and you couldn't get more fake flavors then the bacon cheese fries.and lastly clean the place

wow - REALLY good burgers, and this was just take out, with the "fixings" on the side to do yourself! I can only imagine if I had it in the restaurant, cooked rare how I like, with some mayo. Yes, a bit unhealthy, but that's how I fancy mine! Good side Caesar too. Chips aren't my thing (I don't like potatoes; well, just sweet potatoes). I'd definitely make a special trip here in the future - yum!!!

I was driving by this place and thought to myself "Hey, I fucking love burgers so let me try this place!" Boy was I wrong about this place. The place is like a Five Guys but with a little more variety. The employee behind the counter was maybe in high school and was oblivious to anything I said to her. It was like talking to a wall. My favorite part of the exchange between us was this... I asked her if all they had was the bottled drinks behind the counter. She said "yes." I asked if there was any fountain drinks and she blankly stared into my eyes and said "No, I'm sorry." So I took a glance around the place and what do you know... There was one all the way in the back along with iced tea. What?! My cheeseburger was nothing but plain and boring. There was no flavor and the bun to patty ratio was laughable. I tasted more bread than hamburger so I took off the top bun and folded the burger just so I could taste the meat. Don't go here.

Husband said 4 stars, I said 4.5. This was my first time at Wayback and I had the veggie burger. It was cooked perfectly with just the right amount of toppings. We had the tater tots and they were excellent. Perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. They remained hot until we ate them which was about 15 minutes from restaurant to home. My husband had the double bacon burger, his way. It was cooked perfect and had great flavours. The staff was polite and our order did not take long at all! Can't wait to try the chicken tenders and cod sandwich next time!

A short walk later, I found myself at Destination Dogs, a place I had seen in photographs that suggested capaciousness. In reality, it is smaller.  This is not a complaint, just an observation.  I remember once hearing something about the contents of small packages. At 12:30 the place was full. Packed with humanity and appetite. I was seated quickly, as if someone had anticipated my hunger in advance. From the bar came the sound of construction crews discussing their midday rituals. Apparently this is where they come on Fridays, to repair themselves while they repair the city. It explained everything. Service was swift and attentive, a minor miracle given the crowd. I began with a Scotch egg, an item that seemed to have wandered in from another story entirely. I ordered it for that reason. I had always imagined my first Scotch egg would be eaten in an English pub under low ceilings and older regrets. Instead, here it was. Perfectly crisp, warm, and generous. The universe does not ask for permission. Then came the main event. The menu is an atlas of hot dogs. Domestic. International. Proteins in tube form arranged like possibilities. There is even an invitation to build your own, which I accepted. I attempted to recreate a favorite from Crif Dogs, a thing called the Spicy Redneck. Bacon wrapped dog. Pickled jalapenos. Coleslaw. Simple in theory. Destination Dogs improved upon it in every way that matters. The bacon crisped with purpose. The jalapenos spoke clearly. The coleslaw behaved. The hot dog itself seemed proud to be there. All of this, plus a 16 ounce beer, cost me about twenty five dollars with tip. A small price for order in a chaotic universe. Five stars. Not because perfection exists, but because this comes close enough to make the argument.

Listen, I have no real complaints. The food was great. The service was great. The atmosphere was…read moregood. But I am a fan of constructive criticism. I had the Gandolfi. It was delish but it could be improved with more or larger pepperonis. Also the sausage to bun ratio was off. Either make the sausage bigger or the bun smaller. Bottom line, you'll enjoy your food and beer.

So, it's been a few years since I've been back to Middlesex Texas Wiener, but I was in the area…read moreyesterday and I needed lunch so I hit one of my old favorites. I used to come here with my Dad so I've got fond memories of the place. When I walked in it felt like it hadn't changed since the 80s. And don't get me wrong...that's NOT a negative comment. There was a short line when I got there, but it moved quickly and I put in my order for one chili cheese dog and one with chili, kraut and mustard. I've always loved the dogs here. I know they used to use Grote and Weigel dogs and they SEEM like the same ones I've always loved so perhaps they are still the same. Either way, the dogs were GREAT. I dont mind traveling for dogs, but this is a little outside my normal range to be too regular. However, if I'm in the area (and there are actually a bunch of great places in the area) I'd certainly come back. Great dogs, fast service, great ambiance, and for me...and solid nostalgic memories.

The food is pretty good from here. You can eat indoors, but there is not much space outdoors. I…read morealways get mine to go. As of recently, I have not been the biggest fan of the food as much as I used to be. The burgers are delicious! However, I love the popcorn /fried shrimp & now more than I've ever noticed before, it's low-key (actually pretty fn gross} gross biting into the shrimp & seeing the shrimp's not removed! Eww ! Even the diner in Boro, manville & Applebee's remove the crap from the crustacean‍. I won't be ordering the shrimp anymore, although I took a gamble tonight (probably stupid on my part considering it's been happening for like over 3 months now whenever I order it) ! Also, no disrespect to the business or staff, but the parking lot is TERRIBLE! Make sure you don't go on a "car show" night or during rush hours, or you'll be screwed trying to find a spot! Bet. The employees are all really kind & polite though. At least the female cashiers I've dealt with were super cool. We even complimented each other's nails & had a short & enjoyable conversation (as they were not busy at the time & she had free time) . They are very kind ppl. Besides the shrimp s*** & crummy parking, this place is decent. Please start removing the poop from the popcorn shrimp. I don't want to be full of shrimp . . Thx! Have a great day & shout out to the awesome chick who hooked me up with the soda I forgot to call in to my order! Staff is super respectful & helpful. I'll be back but ONLY for burgers, grilled cheese, & chicken tenders, & the best thing on the menu imo : cheese fries . I might have to get my shrimp elsewhere! I hope not. We'll see... I risked ordering it tonight but haven't opened it yet! No whammys... no whammys... no shrimp waste...pleaseeeee... fingers crossed haha. Idk I did not open the bag yet. Praying for some good yummy clean shrimp! Not the ones that uhh well, full of crap (no pun intended).

Besides the classics fried seafood and hot dogs, they're also doing chicken wings, cheesesteaks, pastrami sandwiches, even a half-chicken with fries. The staff is friendly and accommodating. The foot-long delivers and the regular dogs are fine, if not a little salty. The chicken wings are great, but I always get them naked and then dip in sweet chili, sriracha,Nashville hot, bbq, or another half-dozen sauces. I had the half chicken there and enjoyed it. My mother was happy to find a place still doing fish and chips around here, and we got it several times. The fries are crinkle cut, crispy on the outside, tender on the inside and kind of addictive. The whitefish fried filet is not bad, but the fried shrimp steal the show. Those are crunchy and also a bit addictive. Hard to eat just a few. I would go back there just for the fried shrimp. The hush puppies are the lowest point: too dense and dry. They also do burgers there but I haven't tried those yet. Overall, good experience there, the chicken dishes are the standouts.
