3.5 overall rounded to 4 for being somewhat unique and great service.
I was excited to try this place, so much so that I skipped lunch yesterday and spent an extra 20 min on the treadmill to build up maximum hunger before going (not healthy, i know) for my 1st time :)
The location is sadly far from me but worth a trip 1x at least.
With maximum hunger I ordered the plain jane mini meal, the buffalo soldier and the caprese. The guy asked is that all?...and i just laughed at him and he laughed back at me lol.
Plain Jane - Nothing special but solid little burger. If not for the very generous serving of fries i'd feel ripped off by the price of the combo 3/5
Buffalo Soldier - My first bite was like all bun and ranch...yuck. I had to kind of hunt for the ingredients and break it down. The hot sauce and swiss were almost non existent and the chicken was this tiny little piece of flavorless meat. The crispy onions were good and a nice touch. Wouldn't repeat this one or would try it light ranch and more hot sauce? 2/5
Caprese- Saved this for last....A friend of mine says you can really taste food with your eyes, and she's right! It was clear this was going to be the best slider as you could see the fresh eggplant and cheese, tomato bulging outside of the bun. It was like the Buffalo Soldier and the Caprese came from different slider joints. Very tasty and the most balanced of the 3 I tried. 5/5
Fries - Regular fries with the combo were really good and generous portion. 4/5
Overall comments
1. Price..all this food was $11, which seemed steep but I was ridiculously full after so I guess it's highish but not ridiculous. I think people would warm up to the price if the value meals came with 2 sliders and less fries perhaps? The plain jane was pretty tiny and the ala carte price of $2.5 seems LOL 3/5
2. The buns....weren't bad, weren't great....but seemed uninspired and seemed to dominate the sliders with the exception of the Caprese. I felt myself wanting to ditch the bun by the time I got to this one. Maybe they could reduce the size of the buns? 2/5
3. Awesome service. I know they fist bump everyone and say hi and bye enthusiastically to everyone but if that was the norm in this little world wouldn't we all be happier :) The staff seemed genuine and like they enjoyed working there 5/5
Overall the experience left me wanting to try more...i'll be back after another long workout!!!
