★★★☆☆ 3.0 Joyful · Nov 2025

First Visit—Great Happy Hour! Found out you can only get the HH in the Bar—so sat in the Bar—not a great vibe. But… sliders are ok—only have Ketchup (seems would put an Island Sauce on them). Onion Rings are the bomb and it was great being able to get a small order instead of the Regular size! Ask your server for that option as it wasn’t on the menu. My Bartender was great. Had Fresh Brewed Iced Tea—so many places give it out of the fountain…no good. So A+ for this place on that! Parking near is busy, but plenty in the shopping center. Probably try some of the other HH items next time!

Was told the fries were good here. That was so right! Loved that all our food arrived to the table hot - including the basket of fries. Service was very efficient with server visiting at least twice after food arrived. Having dropped in on a Saturday night the wait wasn’t too long despite there being at least 5 parties ahead of us. My only minor complaint was the breaded chicken was a bit over cooked resulting in a dryer chicken sandwich, but other burgers were accurate in terms of doneness. Super impressed and would return in the future. Oh one other note - the straws smell and seemed to have made my drink taste different- anyone experience this too??

★★★★★ 5.0 Alisa Takeuchi · May 2023

Haven't been here in years. Menu has changed slightly and I was disappointed to learn they don't have the slaw anymore. It was definitely one of the best things they offered. Also a bummer that a healthier option to the fries that come with the burger is extra. Burger was still excellent and my friend's wrap looked delicious. I loved this place as a kid and have fond memories, but I probably won't be back.
