| - I have not eaten here before today. My coworkers eat here a lot for lunch. Today I decided to see what the hype is about.
I thought this was an actual restaurant!! It's not. It's a fast food joint, drive thru & outdoor umbrella seating.
Arriving just before noon on a weekday, I walked into a packed dining room. How thrilled I was to arrive when I did. Within minutes of entering & paying for my order the line was out the door. Literally!
The first thing I noticed about the order counter is the clutter & the menu is extensive & busy. I had a difficult time finding JUST a bacon cheeseburger & fortunate for me the cashier knew the menu without looking. I still don't know the name of the combo I ordered, but for $9.82 I ended up with a bacon cheeseburger, 1/2 fries & 2 onion rings, & a drink. (If you're a Coke person - they serve Pepsi, Lipton raspberry tea, Dr Pepper & ice tea.). I took my number & sat, waiting for my lunch to be brought out.
Overall, I was impressed with the freshness of the ingredients. Not just with my meal, but with the LARGE salads being brought out. I wasn't impressed with the "plating" (on a sheet of wax type paper & round tray), taste, and more importantly, price.
Yes, I enjoyed my meal. My burger was hot, properly cooked. Loaded with more white onions than I prefer & 2 strips of bacon. The fries were fine, not too salty, not to large, no too thick. The onion rings were large (both in size & thickness), lightly battered, but bland. The flavor came from the sweet yellow onion itself. I've had better burgers at Carl's Jr.
Because it was full the tables weren't properly minded. Cleared? Yes. Wiped down? No.
For $9.82 I expected a better burger then what I could get at Carls or make at home. Will I return? Probably. The salads I saw looked really good & loaded with chicken breast. I'm pretty sure I saw fish & chips on the menu. They also serve brekkie.
Tip #1: mind your parking. I made the mistake of parking next to the drive thru entrance and was blocked by cars waiting in the parking aisle to enter the drive thru. People are rude, selfish & more concerned about themselves than the fact they were intentionally keeping me & others from leaving.
Tip #2: order your meal for take away. They give it to you in a sturdy container with a bag. Makes bringing leftovers home quick & easy. Most importantly...if you order salad, would you rather eat it off wax paper or from a bowl? They come with dressing on them...if you order it as take away you can shake your salad & disburse the dressing evenly.
