This is a burger place I go to when I want a sit down meal with a diner style feel. Â I've never had a bad burger, and tonight I also had soup with it (Vegetable Beef). Â Their burgers themselves are very good, and tonight I had one of the mushroom and swiss variety. Â They do serve generous portions of french fries and its free refills on the pop.
Cool place close to home for great comfort food...oh yea their soups are good too.
I would have gotten more satisfaction if someone punched me in the gut while taking $20.00 from my wallet in the parking lot.
I got there an hour after opening on last Sunday. The entire staff (clad in basketball shorts and old T-shirts - very unprofessional) was lounging around and quickly dispersed at my arrival. I was seated and ordered a single cheese burger, Irish Fries, and a soda.
My first impression - Everything is filthy. The floors, windows, booths, silverware... Instead of sitting on their duffs - The staff could clean something. I was the only person in this business for obvious reasons until another poor soul wandered in shortly after.
The food arrived and I was underwhelmed. This burger was overcooked, the Irish fries became soggy immediately. At least the Green River soda was refreshing. All of this enjoyment for $16.00 out of the door. Â I could have gotten a better meal at Wendy's for $6.00 with no tip expected. Â I don't mind paying $25 for a burger (Rockit) as long as the quality is there. Â
As a farewell surprise, I got stomach cramps 20 minutes later as I was driving back to the city requiring an emergency restroom stop on the south side near 79th street.
