“ Cute little roadside eatery with children's color pictures all over the walls! Adorable! The food is delicious I had a cheeseburger and fries pickle chips! Yum! I felt the portions were huge! Service was friendly and quick, however they asked for a tip during purchase...and the only thing they did was bring the food to you. So...sorry...this does not qualify for a tip. You fetch your own drinks as well. Will return...the food is great! ”
“ Great experience. Food was clearly hot, fresh, and made to order. Burgers were solid and the big mama chicken burrito was massive the GOAT. Overall, the helpings were massive and I definitely got my money’s worth. They also had a wide vegan menu for those looking for vegan fare. Shout out to the mango habanero and spicy ketchup. ”
“ I’m a vegetarian so I’ve been wanting to try their veg/vegan menu for a while. We ordered three meals. I had the vegetarian frito pie, my hubby had the pulled pork sandwich and my mom had a burger. My frito pie was huge and I only ate about 1/4 of it. It was loaded up with whatever meat sub they use for their homemade chili, lots of fritos (my faves), beans and veggies. While it was good, I would’ve preferred a spicier chili. My husband said his sandwich was really good and I’m not gunna lie, it smelled good. The burger was good as well, but the star of the show were the fries!!! I’d go back for a bucket of those fries every day of the week if I lived close enough. ”
“ The food was great and the service as well. Would recommend and will be back if I’m ever this way again. They do have a whole vegan/vegetarian menu. ”
“ We went around 8pm on a Friday night as a party of seven and was able to get a table. Good service. Food came out reasonably fast. The portions are huge and the food is delicious. Definitely come hungry. The Smokehouse Burger is ridiculously good. 5 years later... The location is different, but the food is still awesome. Had the Mac and Cheese Burger and the Brisket Tacos. If you are in the mood for just meat with no fancy veggies, the brisket tacos will hit the spot. If you feel fat after finishing your meal, then they did you right. ”
“ I feel like this is a hole in the wall spot that has really good food. I mean it'll probably clog your arteries, but you'll enjoy it and no regrets. The fries are delicious and perfectly cooked. They have a crispy outside and a soft inside that makes for a great experience. It's not the best burger I've ever had in my life so to speak, but it is really good and super tasty. ”
“ First time checking this place out and we were very impressed! The atmosphere is so unique, and the prices are about normal. I ordered the double bacon cheeseburger and sweet potato tots and everything was AMAZING! The burger was seasoned well and the portion size was fantastic will definitely be back ! ”
“ This place was amazing. Food was absolutely delicious and they have their own unique spin on things. I ordered a Mac n' cheese burrito that had pulled pork and tater tots on it as well and it was so good. Portion sizes are filling, the service was very friendly and the atmosphere was great. Definitely a place to check out if you're in the area. ”
