★★★☆☆ 3.0 Melissa G. · Jul 2025

The food was good but the service is extremely lacking, no hello, can I take your order, thank. They ask what condiments you want but then are not included. The building is really cool and outdoor seating area is a blast from the past.

It was my first time coming and I had a lot of people talk about the good food. I ordered a cheeseburger, fries, pizza pocket and cheeseballs. Went through the drive thru the first time and got our ordered and drove off down the street. Checked our food and had a bite of a cheeseball and I was quickly taken back on how undercooked we checked 4 of them to make sure and cold it was on top of that it was the most expensive item we had purchased. My burger, fries, and pizza pocket was cooked just fine. We drove back thru to ask for fresh cheeseballs. Workers asked us for our cheeseballs back which I assumed were gonna be thrown away but we're cooked and thrown into a new brown bag. How disgusting. I would've just gotten my refund but I already wasted time getting my order corrected the first t

Stopping through town and after a quick scan of restaurants in area decided to make a quick stop here. It's fast food but way tastier than Mickey D's!! Ordered quarter pounders that were delicious 😋, very tasty made to order. Cheese curds were awesome as well. If your looking for a fast bite that's really good, stop here. 😊

This was a unique little place to stop on our way through Nebraska. We came at 7:30 pm, so the wait time wasn't bad. I can imagine it's different during the dinner ruch. They have quite an extensive menu with a lot of options. I had pulled pork--a little heavy on the BBQ sauce. The fries were a little mushy, but it's fine if you like them that way. I sort of do. The burgers were nothing special, but they're also not super expensive. I would come here for the experience at least once if you're curious, but it probably won't become a favorite.

★★★★★ 5.0 Chris SanClemente · Mar 2024

First of all, what a great find! We had the 1/4 pounder bacon burger, fries, a vanilla milkshake and a fountain soda. On our way home from WinterWonderGrass 2024 we were getting a bit peckish and the only thing to eat nearby was McD’s or Subway… we just weren’t interested. So, I started searching town to town on google maps along our route until I saw this drive-in, in Gordon, NE. The pictures of the old style menu told me that we would love this place. We stopped by and WOW, best burgers, best fries, best fountain soda and milkshake ever!!!! Even if it is out of way, you should stop. We will be coming back at least twice a year as we go back-and-forth to Steamboat.
