| - Went there Sunday 8-29-10 with my two kiddos.
I had gone with the pure intention of trying out the supposedly fiery "Hellza-Poppin'" burger, with Pepper Jack, Jalapenos, and Habanero sauce. I love hot and spicy foods to a fault.
The burger was indeed a little spicy. Nothing overly hot, however, as it did not have my face sweating or have me craving a glass of milk, which REALLY hot food does to me.
If you are the dude among your friends (as I am) who is known as the "king of eating hot stuff" you might be a little disappointed in the Hellza-Poppin' burger.
Summing up the Hellza-Poppin': Tasty, but not a volcano in your mouth.
You definitely taste the heat, but it's not overwhelmingly hot. Unless you are a hot food wussy, in which case you should stay away from this burger.
If I were to "scale" this burger on a heat scale, basing it on other places in town you can get TRULY HOT food (Los Dos Molinos, Arriba's side order of Hatch chiles) I would have to put it on about a 6.5 out of 10.
My daughter had the original Steakenburger and was not overly impressed either. Adding the shaved steak to the two patties did not really make the burger better. The shaved steak actually tasted kind of stale to me when I tried it. Maybe it was a little bit old.
The wings were very good, though. My son had the "mild" and he loved them.
Onion rings were also above average.
We'd go back, maybe just for the wings.
