| - I have eaten here several times (including the Grand Opening) and before this would make it a point to visit the truck once every other week depending on location, time, etc.
The Grand Opening was CRAZY. I guess I don't have a problem finding this place because that night it was hard to miss - the truck was there, a video game truck, a TON of cars as well as a crazy line. They do have a great fan base. The restaurant directly reflects the feel almost perfectly of the truck. It's awesome. Also, LOVE the retro games. I am a little sad the photo booth disappeared after the grand opening - that was so fun! It would be a cute idea to keep around for customers to post their pics with their mini-burgs. =)
Seating is VERY limited and a couple of times I have eaten in their lounge couch-type area. I half-joking, half-seriously suggested to one of them that they should get some TV trays. Hey, a TV is already in there.
The prices of the mystery sliders can be a little much but it IS special and the one I don't regretting paying extra for is the Buffalo Soldier. Do I wish it was a dollar or two cheaper? Yeah, but I also don't frequent this place enough to nickle and dime their prices. It is a treat and I treat it as such. =)
Only downer is the service. I know the employees are friendly and at the truck I NEVER had an issue, but here they can be *too* friendly -- more often than not when I have been waiting to order or actually in the process of ordering they will greet (and chat for a few minutes with) someone that has come up to the counter instead of addressing the person already in front of them. I really did not like that. It's cool that you know a lot of your patrons, but it's still a business. Customer service is a pet peeve of mine. I guess if you are someone who comes here religiously or are friends with them outside of the restaurant it's cool, but for most of us who don't really fit in that category it just feels tacky.
What to order: Porky w/o 'penos, PepPep fries w/extra sauce... and the epic, crazy, out-of-this-world, make-sure-you-have-friends-to-share-them-with-or-you-will-get-diabetes S'mores Sweet Fries. Holy amazing, Batman. Go get some. Then brush your teeth before you get cavities... but then go order some more.
