| - So there's obviously a lot of hype about this place. We went with some people that had been there before, and they all seemed to enjoy it, but this place was not for us.
First off, we get there, and they say there's going to be a 2 hour wait. So fortunately, they text you when your table is ready, so you can walk around the waterfront. Unfortunately, there's not 2 hours worth of walking around to do at the waterfront, so after about an hour, we were waiting bored for our table. And then 2 hours turned into 2 1/2 hours before we actually got seated.
I got a milkshake, and that was very good, albeit a little pricy ($6). The burgers however left a lot to be desired. I got the farm burger, which has ham, cheese, and egg on it. I always get the Royal Red Robin Burger, which is similar (minus the ham), and love that. This however was not the best. It was definitely lacking cheese. I don't like hamburgers without cheese. The beef patties on these burgers are big, so don't skimp on the cheese! There was too much beef, and the beef was bland. I ate about 75% of my burger and just gave up, because I didn't like it enough to finish it. Too much bland beef taste, and not enough cheese/toppings.
About half the people at our table of 8 didn't finish their burgers. Not because it was too much food, just because we didn't really enjoy the burgers that much. I was talking to a friend on the way out who didn't finish, and he said the same thing as me, too much bland beef, not enough cheese.
The fries and chips were good though, and as I already mentioned, so were the shakes, but this is a burger place, not a fry and shake place, so I can say with assurance I'll never be back. I'd go to Red Robin (comparing it here, because it's right across the street) in a heartbeat over this place.
