After seeing all the reviews for this place and liking to try non-chain places, HAD to stop in the other night when checking out the "Turtle Days Festival" in Busco. Â In a nutshell, was NOT disappointed with the food or service in any manner. Â The wife got the Magic-burger (I think that is what its called, the one that they are known for) and onion rings. Â The meet is not the same stuff that McD's uses, its actually very good and not greasy. Â :) Â The onion rings were very good as well, as I had to sample a couple to check to make sure they were as good as she said they were myself. Â Â I got the fried tenderloin sandwich and all I can say is "WOW, that sucker is HUGE and good!" Â I ate what I could of the tenderloin and ended up taking the other half home to warm up and eat the next day (yes, it was very good after warming in a microwave) and if you are like we are, you could probably buy one and share it, its that big. Â The veggies that they used to dress my sandwich were very tasty, the maters actually taste like maters, not wallpaper paste (and local maters aren't even in yet!) Â
The only downside I see to this place is that it IS kind of rundown. Â If I hadn't seen the reviews on Yelp, I would not have stopped there judging from the outside appearance and the inside would have stopped me at the door, if I had made it that far. Â The place is always crowded (has been every time we have been through Busco), so owners should take some of that profit and invest in some paint, etc. Â However, we went there to eat and not eat the paint off the walls, so the appearance is not something I would let get in my way of eating there again. Â
Give this place a try, I am sure that you will like it.
PS: Â They serve ice cream products, but we were both too full to try any of them and they have outside service for drinks, ice cream treats, etc. that you can walk up to. Â Next time we are thru Busco, we will give that a try, for sure.
Good Food, but the clown thing is a little outdated so is the interior. just a few fixes and the place would be nice. but like most places that have been open for a long time and in a small town they are more interested in getting money than putting money back into the place. but thats just my opinion. but the food is good and has that hometown classic dinner taste.
