We've eaten here many times - usually for the $5.00 burger/chips/beer special.
The burger is great, and if you like dark beer, the EXCELLENT Tenaya Creek (TC) is worth the $5 by itself! Unfortunately TC is not always available and then you are stuck with a sucky domestic beer like Coors Lite.
The service is always a crap shoot - leaning more towards the crappy side. Expect to wait a long time for your food and a wait staff that is over-worked and burned out.
Tip: If you are planning to go there, call first, as our waitress last month said they will be shutting down to make way for the new restaurant that is also replacing the Flame Steakhouse
