| - Salty burgers and onion rings right off of South Blvd.? On a sunny afternoon? Count me in. Mr. K's is that beloved burger joint that so many places try to be. Tile menus, squat booths, soft serve machine (worth a few stars for accesibilty), and a sense of history: you know there's some stories with this place, and based on some of the restaurant goers and wait staff, I'd say they have some stories, too. Though the lady at the register was a little short with me, my waitress was helpful, and the service is slick.
While the burger isn't worth an essay, I was really impressed with how good the toppings are. The tomato was thick and seemed like it should be there, even though it slid off of the bun. The burger meat itself has that classic taste I had forgotten about.
I got some onion rings on the side, and though they weren't as moist as I would have liked, I think they made good friends with the burger.
With a much more extensive menu (and a reasonably cheap $6 lunch), I think it's reasonable to expect some more future visits, especially since I have yet to try the ice cream. And due to the complaints on Yelp reviews, they now seem to take debit cards, an added plus for those strapped for cash.
