Flamingo Family Restaurant

Had dinner here. It wasn't a horrible meal. I ordered the fish and it was fresh, but everything we ordered we both thought we could have made a better dinner. I guess that's why I rate it so low; it's not that it was bad food, but if I can do better, then I don't know why I'd pay someone else to cook it.

Prices are very fair. If you're a family, it's definitely affordable dining and good enough food for kids to eat.

If you're traveling on the highway don't bother making this a pit stop. it's too far off the highway.

Look, I understand this is a small town and you don't have many restaurants.  I also understand that if you're a family or an elderly couple, or just some people looking for a quick bite, then this place is cheap and fine.  But the best thing I can say about the food was it was better than edible.

I ended up here by chance.  Driving from FL to CT and avoiding I-95 traffic, so we come up through the Carolinas, VA, WV and PA before cutting east to CT.  We wanted dinner, so my girlfriend did a yelp search in the area and found this 5 star diner.  We misjudged how far it was from the highway (not really a highway stop), but once we were committed, we kept going.

I got a hamburger, she got some fish item.  Meh.  That's what yelp tells you a 2 star review means, and that's what this is.  Meh.  Service was fine, value was great - it's really cheap - but the food is bland and really underwhelming.  You're better off at Denny's, if there is one nearby, unless you prefer spending your money at mom & pop kind of places, in which case, go here, just load up on the salt, pepper, ketchup and hot sauce, cause their food needs all of it.

Best. Burgers. Ever.

I'll never find another burger that compares to the one I ate at this restaurant. If I lived near by I'd be eating burgers every day. Prices are good, the people there are nice....what more could you ask for?
