| - My mother and I came here wanting to try some place new and since I'm on a Paleo/Primal kick, I figured this would be a great place to check out. Upon entering we were greeting with a friendly smile by the cashier at an order counter that I slowly walked up to saying that this was our first time here. She was very enthusiastic and proceeded to explain the menus to us (regular and gluten free) and told us how it worked (i.e. we order here at the counter, they give us a number that we place on a table, the staff brings out food, but its self serve at the drink station). My mother ordered the Burger 101 ($6) which is a plain burger and I ordered the Super Burger Bowl ($8) which is a salad topped with the patty of your choice plus bacon bites and we split the large half and half sweet potato/regular fries basket ($4) and both choose to get fountain drinks ($2.19/ea). Our total after tax was $24.
After we ordered we went off and snagged one of the four booths and then headed to the condiment/fountain drink area. They serve Coke products and even have a dispenser with Vitamin Water in the acai-blueberry-pomegranate flavor. I opted for the unsweetened iced tea (either sweetened or unsweetened) and was left with an underwhelming dissatisfaction with their iced tea. I am not sure what happened, but I would advise getting it and I was wishing I went with the Vitamin Water. After we got our drinks we side stepped to the condiment section which has 10 options of dipping or topping sauces: thai ketchup, chipotle may, toasted marshmallow, honey mustard, bbq, ragin' cajun, apple cider, ranch, ketchup, and mustard. We choose to try three, the thai ketchup, toasted marshmallow, and the regular ketchup. The thai ketchup had a spice to it, but it wasn't hot-spicy and toasted marshmallow - was gross. It tasted like melted frosting and was way too sweet for me, I just stuck with the regular ketchup.
Our orders came out pretty fast and my mom enjoyed her burger and I loved my Burger Bowl. The patty was cooked perfectly! It was pink all throughout the center making it the right amount juicy - so juicy that I didn't even need to use the salad dressing that I ordered as a side. The fries were also a-ok, but nothing to write home about, I guess that's why there is a large condiment bar. Regardless, my mother and I would not hesitate to return for another meal.
The décor is a clean white with pops of color. Paintings on the wall were black and white photographs with colored areas (like the eyes). There are only 4 booths in this entire place that could seat 4 people comfortably and 6 people more intimately. The booths are also narrow not leaving much room between you and the table. For bigger parties you could push several of the floor tables together or take advantage of 2 of their high top tables that seat 8 people. There is also a bar in the back center of the building with 9 stools for those that enjoy that type of atmosphere. Bathroom wise, there are two basic single occupancy bathrooms, one for males and one for females. They get the job done.
I've never been a burger person, but would recommend this place to anyone interested!
