| - I honestly was surprised this was more than a 'burger joint'. I live right around the corner from this Culver's and my first thought was, "What do we need with another In N Out, McDonalds, Burger King, Taco Bell, etc. in our neighborhood, ugh"?
But the first time I actually went inside I was pleasantly surprised at the more restaurant-like atmosphere. My family and I sat at a clean large double open booth and had an array of comfort food, from a beef pot roast sandwich, their famous butter burgers and cheese curds, and my favorite -- a mushroom burger with grilled onions. I haven't been able to get a mushroom burger forever!! We even had a fried chicken breast (hefty) and mashed potato with chicken gravy dinner along with fish and chips - lightly battered (like a tempura) with malt vinegar and tartar sauce. We were eating each other's meals just to try everything. The fries were just like I like it (or I'd avoid fries because so often they're cold or overcooked). These are crinkle cut, hot and lightly crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside, not hard through and through like McDonald's are often.
So much I haven't tried yet on the menu, because you tend to stick with favorites, but I also plan to try the fried shrimp and the Reuben. Occasionally I have a soup or salad there, also good. But the custard they make each day...? Really, really creamy, love it. Have to stay away from that...
I do not think you can be disappointed unless you are highly critical.
