Detailed review. 😊 Yesterday, I ordered the Swiss Burger, onion rings, and sweet potato fries. In my opinion, the Swiss Burger was the most juiciest and flavorable burger I've ever tried in my 30+ years old of life.

I've been to a few "Red Onion" places and they DO NOT compare to this location! Plus they offer 10x more options on their menu. The food was absolutely delicious!!! The customer service was warm and friendly. I will definitely return with my family and add this place as one of my favorites. Thank you to Johnny and staff!!! Erika P. & family

Food was yummy per the usual. Fresh ingredients and same great taste. I got a bacon Cheeseburger with a large fries. Fries were big enough for 3 people. When I'm in the area I'll return for another delicious burger.

Great place for breakfast and lunch. Big omelets and breakfast platters on the menu. The burgers are excellent here. Bundle the fries and onions rings to share. The portions are large here. The prices are very decent. Try it! ALOHA!
