| - Disappointing visit, I expected better.
I ordered online thinking it would save time as they advertise all food is cooked to order, wait time is usually 20 - 30 minutes. I ordered a Semi-Serious burger (1/3 lb) cooked medium on a Kaiser Roll, made it a platter adding onion rings and cole slaw, and a root beer for my drink ..the order to be as a 'dine in' customer. It was 7:23pm on a monday evening when I ordered and after being accepted online, I was promised the meal to be ready at 7:50pm. Cool...about 27 minutes, I can be there in 20 minutes...good timing, I thought!
Lotsa road construction on the way, arrived at 7:45pm; walked inside, it's a neat little place all lit up 50s style with rock n roll oldies playing on the muzak.. pretty big menu of burgers, fries, rings, shakes, sundaes and floats.
When walking in, I was greeted by a young woman who said hello and asked if I would be dining in or taking out. I had interrupted her conversation with a young man and a child who I assume were her husband and daughter.
I replied that I had placed an order online and that I was dining in..she looked me up in the computer and I paid for my order. She directed another woman to get my drink for me and offered me a seat and returned to her conversation.
Time went by, 7:50pm came and went .. there was no more conversation with me while I waited. At 8:04pm, the woman who seated me approached me saying they had no cole slaw, 'sorry, can I offer you a dinner salad instead?' No problem, a salad will be fine. Five more minutes passed and she returned with my food in a paper bag, to go. I mentioned that I did not order to go and she turned to the first young woman who was still immersed in her conversation with the young man and child, and asked 'was this a dine in?' ...what, she didn't believe me?
I unpacked the styrofoam boxes while she returned with a knife and fork so that I could eat the salad.
The disappointments continued .. my drink, in a styrofoam cup, (I shoulda got a clue then, eh?) was maybe a 16 oz drink that I paid $2.69 (there is only on size offered).
The dinner salad was nothing special, a couple of hands-ful of lettuce and some croutons with a few pieces of diced tomato.
The onion rings, a single order at 6 oz, consisted of 7 very small rings, battered in a tempura-like batter; the salad and the rings cost $3.99.
The 1/3 lb burger was oval, not pressed flat, so it, and the tomato, sliced onion, etc kept sliding out of the Kaiser roll. The Kaiser roll was stale and dry and toasting it did not conceal this condition.
The burger, ordered medium, was grayish well done, dry, chewy and bland. I only managed to eat half of the burger before throwing it all in the to go bag and leaving.
No one spoke to me or checked on me after delivering the meal to me..so, being mistaken as a to go order, I guess they felt no need to check on me while I sat there occupying their table.
I don't expect they'll get a second visit from me... tsk, but, they were kids, maybe I expected too much...?
