| - This is the place for salads! A giant river of toppings to choose from, fresh greens, giant bowl, and they'll chop your salad for you if you wish. I had a small side salad, premade with greens, tomato, cucumber, cheese. The Citrus Lime dressing is perfect....not too puckery or sweet, doesn't hide the flavors of the vegs. I will absolutely get salads here in the future.
My burger wanted to be great. It looked fantastic. The Big Honkin' Superburger, a double-decker with "Sauce Supreme", one patty was still incredibly red inside so I removed it. The sauce really is nothing more than a very thin skim of tartar sauce. It couldn't hide the fact that although the meat looked good and had a nice, juicy chew, there was no flavor to the meat. None. I saved a bite for later just to be sure, and nope, no flavor. This is where the Eat 'n Park relationship is obvious. Your burger will need mustard, ketchup, or something.
My friend had the Over-Easy Cheeseburger, cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and an egg. He said it was "alright" but less than expected.
The fries are very good, fried in peanut oil. My order was to go, so the fries were a bit limp but that was likely because they were in a bag for ten minutes. A lot of fries for just $2.
Milkshakes, chocolate and vanilla, are very standard. Go to the Milkshake Factory at 17th and Carson for your shakes.
I plan on trying the breakfast sandwiches, and the Boylan soda fountain next time. I do wish they'd have some pastries or muffins for breakfast....they just have those terrible Smiley cookie pucks. I remain hopeful. Eat 'n Park is the absolute worst chain restaurant I've ever been to, It makes Denny's taste gourmet. Hello Bistro needs to further distance themselves from Eat 'n Park and get some flavor in those burgers.
But if you're looking for a SALAD, this is your place.
