| - Best Band Ever? Best Movie Ever? Best Burger Ever? All questions that can't ever be answered to everyone's satisfaction but by god, we'll all argue our opinion until we're blue in the face.
That being said...if you ever happen to get into it with me over the burger issue, it may be worth studying up on what I'm about to say.
Magoo's makes the BEST BURGER EVER.
And to not leave it alone of my personal pedestal of awesomeness, I must also note that their hot dogs, onion rings and fries aren't too damn shabby either.
They also have salad. I have no opinion on their salads. I've seen people order them but I question the wisdom of anyone who comes to a burger joint steeped in barbeque-y goodness and just orders a salad (not even a veggie dog or burger?). I think they must be robots. Skinny, health-conscious, will of steel robots.
They have 3 different sizes of patty you can order (along with chicken and veggie options) and a bunch of different "garnishes" you can add (bacon, cheese, mushrooms, etc.) Once you've pondered and submitted your order to the extremely friendly staff (it's family run), you can sit in any of the booths or at any table and they'll call your name when it's ready. Then you can go up and specify your toppings - sauces first (the usual plus honey mustard or Magoo sauce) and then the rest (lots of options and 3 different cheeses to choose from). And the buns? Well they're a simple thing but easy to mess up and whichever type Magoo's uses, they hit it out of the starch park. Seriously amazing...almost better than the burger itself.
And if you want dessert - they have a fair sized selection of ice cream flavours to enjoy.
Eating in or taking out is always the kicker question. The nostalgia factor is high with the music channeling the bygone bobby-sox era, and the place (especially on summer weeknights and weekends) jammed with families. So if you're in a social mood...take a seat and people watch. But if you're hating humanity while craving burger goodness, I'd suggest taking the treats to go.
And if you do decide to swing by...whether because you are convinced by my argument or because you want to gather evidence to dispute it...note that they only take CASH.
