| - A 'Burger Factory' you say? Am I to understand that this is a factory that produces burgers? Away post-haste!
Right down the street from work (everything is right down the street from work) is The Burger Factory, a place that fills my head with visions of little burgers riding down a conveyor belt. First comes the bottom bun, then a machine delicately places a few drops of sauce on it, then another machine spreads it with precision, then the next robot arm gently places a patty, then next one puts the lettuce on top of that, then another one puts on the onions, the next robotic arm is poised to place bacon if needed, then comes the cheese machine, then the last machine places a top bun on it and pats it lovingly. Then the complete burger continues its ride on the conveyor belt to a final machine which quickly and accurately boxes the burger, then stamps it with an 'ACME' stamp. Bugs Bunny takes the boxed burger over to a drive thru window and gives it to the customer...
ok, i'm bored at work doing stupid spreadsheets, so my mind is wandering!
Anyway, you don't get to see Bugs Bunny, but you do get food prepared with precision and quality assurance.
First, I was impressed with the number of items on the menu. A varied variety of various burgers, some sandwich staples, Mexican food, greasy spoon dinners, and even breakfast. Whether or not they do all of these categories well...I vow to find out and report.
So far, I've had a Philly Cheese Steak and a gyro from here.
I haven't been satisfied with a cheese steak in a very long time, but the Factory has come the closest to getting it right for me. Tender meat, gooey cheese, and enough of it. Peppers and onions were grilled to carmelized goodnes. And the bread was even good. The taste was right on point...the perfect balance of savory and sweet and devilish. It wasn't a little boy's size, either. I got full.
The gyro? If anyone has ever read my reviews of gyro joints, they know I love the things more than I love my family. Factory's gyro was...big. That's the most memorable thing about it. The taste was just average. Not bad at all, but it doesn't rank in MY top 5. Its got everything that a gyro should have...meat, onions, sauce, pita. And lots of it all. But like I said, the taste is only ok. Ah, I need to get over myself I think. Most people would find this gyro superb.
When a place has you looking forward to coming back and trying more, they've pretty much done their job. These guys are quick with the orders and the price is not too bad at all...I'd say a complete lunch for about 8 bucks? I like that they are open early for breakfast, because my only other options are McDonald's, The Good Egg (waaaaay too expensive), and some other places that I probably have yet to discover in this area. Hopefully, I'll be trying their breakfast soon as they offer all the omletes that I like, and pancakes, too.
I think this is one of those places that you keep trying stuff on the menu until you come accross something you really don't like, then you just stick with what's been good to you.
