| - This place is worth going to at least once, especially if you go with an 350+ lb friend who is willing to step on the scale and get the glory/shame of eating free all night long. We did, and it was a riot.
I'm not a crazy burger fan, but this place was highly entertaining. We got a seat right by the slapping bar where people got their butts smacked when they don't finish their food (and those girls don't hold back either). That's enough motivation to clean up your plate.
The decor is cleverly done too. The TV plays a variety of music videos, some even customized to the Heart Attack Grill, including one "wtf?" one with a little person and Ron Jeremy lip-synching to "Summer Lovin'" from Grease.
I love the little menu touches too. If you ask for lettuce they say "we don't have anything green". They don't serve diet drinks either because, why bother? They DO have cane sugar soda which was actually really cool, and somewhat ironic because people would argue real sugar might even be healthier than the usual High Fructose Corn Syrup. If you order wine it comes in an IV and the receipt lists tax as "government theft". It's all very clever.
The burgers themselves were actually quite impressive, even the dinky one-patty burger. For $10 it's actually a reasonable deal considering you'll pay that much anywhere else, and the burgers are a good size. You can easily split a burger if you're worried about not finishing one. I got fries too and even though they were fried in deep lard, they didn't really taste any different.
I'm glad I went, but I don't see myself going back again anytime soon. It's probably not a place you'll go regularly (unless you are over the 350 lb mark). Also keep in mind that it is CASH only and they do not let you bring in outside drinks, including water.
