“ Stopped by for another Avacado BLT, but we were a bit disappointed cause not too long ago they used the long Sourdough Bread, this time they used regular sandwich bread... much smaller. Other than that everything else was still good. Fries, Cherry Slush, Strawberry-Banana Shake & Deluxe Meal, and the food is always made as you order. ”
“ First time here and was shocked that this place has a bathroom and it's clean and spacious. When I ordered, Luis was patient with me when I asked him all kinds of questions and he provided awesome customer service. I ordered the cheeseburger with grilled onions meal and substituted the fries for onion rings and also ordered the fried zucchini. Usually ranch at places like this is my favorite, however, when I dipped one fried zucchini in the house made dressing and ate it and it blew my mind because it tasted so good and also had to wait a little bit from eating the zucchini because it was still hot and fresh that I burned my mouth. The house made dressing tasted like a cross between tartar sauce and ranch. Super delicious amd definitely my favorite now! When I bit into the burger it took me to a different place - a happy place. Everything on the cheeseburger with grilled red onions tasted clean and fresh. Something I've never tasted before. The onion rings were crispy and good and it tasted better dipped in the house made dressing. This is now one of my favorite burger spots to eat at and the price is worth it. Highly recommend this place. ”
“ I haven't been to this place since I was a kid. It was like a suppressed memory that I thought was made up in my mind lol. Came back and oh man the burgers where delicious and the fries hot and crispy. One of the best burgers in town a must go ”
“ Since the late 1950s.. I remember coming here in the 70s as a small child. I would often go there whenever I visited my late aunt & uncle McCoy who lived in the Tahoe Park area. On this occasion I called in my order..two 2 piece Fish with Fries, extra tartar sauce, malt vinegar, catsup, salt & pepper. Along with a Kiwi Slushy. The food was fresh & ready when I arrived. The customer service was very professional & great. The fish was cooked to perfection nice & flaky with just the right amount of crispiness & quite delicious. The fries were good but could've been a little bit more crispy ( crinkle cut would've paired better with the fish). The Slushy was very good. The only setback was that the tartar sauce was mediocre & could use a little sweet pickle relish & dill mixed in it to enhance the flavor. I also recommended the variety of hamburgers, the tacos, burritos, ice cream, shakes, ect..to try. Since since everything is pretty much delicious! The prices were very reasonable. I would highly recommend this restaurant! ”
“ We came here for chili cheese fries and a banana shake. It was nice to eat outside with the beautiful weather. The fries were crispy even when covered with chili. The chili tasted great, and I got it without onions. The banana shake had a good consistency. ”
