| - My first thought: What a strange mix of a menu!
There's butterburgers (what they're famous for), fried chicken, fish, tuna melts, cheesesteaks, salads....and then their other claim to fame, the frozen custard.
I tried the mushroom swiss burger which was very juicy, and the meat had an interesting texture - moist on the inside, slightly crisp on the outside. The bun was very buttery. I tried a little of the chili cheese fries, which were pretty tasty and generous...and also tried some of the cheese curds. I liked the seasoning on the curds and liked that they used two different cheeses. They were a ton better than those at A&W in my opinion.
Just a warning though, the burgers are so big and filling, there's not a lot of room left in the tummy for sides. I was SO full.
The custard is smooth and silky, and I'm afraid to say Culver's may give Ritters a bit of competition. You can get a quart for $5.99. Every other quart you buy after that first one only costs you $3 each. The price is extremely reasonable.
I was interested in the fact that you can get what they call regular sides and premium sides. Anything from regular fries to sauteed green beans. I don't think I ever had green beans with a hamburger...
Prices are pretty decent, and the staff seems very friendly and motivated. I didn't see one person just sitting idly.
We'll see if this place stands the test of time, I hope the best for them. So far I'm liking this place far better than the M or the box, especially in terms of service.
