Food: Froze, fries lack luster

Any semblance of originality was lost on the chili cheese fries with pastrami with the load of undercooked soggy fries. Fresh ingredients had a poor showing as well, seeming to lack seasoning and flavor despite frequent use. The variety was a disappointment too, with overcooked fries and a so-so frozen patty on the burger.

  • Large Portions

    Reviews consistently mention generous, big, and good-sized portions.

  • Okay Value

    Prices reasonable but not standout; you get what you pay for.

  • Bad Variety

    Burger was just ok for a frozen patty, fries overcooked.

Vibe: Uninviting, gloomy atmosphere

The interiors of the place were dirty with dimly lit sections that were, frankly, a bit scary. The ambiance didn't exactly scream 'enjoy your meal' so much as it did 'Flee while you still can'.

  • Bad Ambiance

    Dirty interiors and dimly lit areas create an uninviting and scary atmosphere.

Perks: Limited parking, friendly service

Modern-age inconvenience was at its peak with the limited parking. Staff, however, tried to put on a brave face and succeed. Service was fast and the staff, friendly. Still, be prepared for loud kids possibly impacting your peace and quiet.

  • Great Service

    Staff is friendly and service is fast, providing excellent dining experience.

  • Okay Outdoor

    Clean, nice covered patio but no specific detail.

  • Bad For Kids

    Loud kids can negatively impact the dining atmosphere for some guests.
