We decided to try a lot of the menu, getting the Swiss Shroom Dijon Burger, the Bacon Avocado Burger, Crispy Fried Chicken (they have a spicy version on the in store menu, not on the pdf menu), Mac&Cheese, Cheese Fries and Salt and Vinegar Fries.
It took a little while to get the food because they were so busy (what you want to see in a new business). Pick ups from all of the normal delivery options. (Remember, those options cost the business a lot of money. If you can, go in or use the delivery service through their site).
The burgers were cooked nicely (not over cooked or too greasy). The buns were the right texture (not too crusty, not too soft) and even though we drove home with the food, were not soggy when we got there. That says a lot about both the bun and the burger. The toppings seemed good quality and I'll tell you, I'm not a fan of sauteed onions normally but I would get them again in a heartbeat, some of the best ones I've ever had. Really flavorful and not so overcooked that they melt. The bacon was think and flavorful.
The chicken sandwich had a really nice crunch to it and the house sauce was a nice contrast to the spice on it. (It is a little more spicy that you might think. My daughter, who wanted it and loves the Popeye's Louisiana Kitchen spicy chicken sandwich said this one was more spicy than that. As far as flavor profile, crunch and presentation, it gives it a run for the money! We'll definitely be getting this again but maybe not the spicy.
The fries are fresh made (hand cut) and super good. They were crisp outside and soft inside. The vinegar fries had enough to taste it but not enough to make them soggy. The cheese was served on the side to the fries also didn't get soggy. You get a decent amount of cheese, not the small side of cheese most places give..
I think the only negative we had would be the Mac & Cheese and that's not because of the flavor. It was definitely home-made and we got the edges of the pan so got those great extra crispy cheese pieces in it. The reason it was negative was because it was a pretty small amount for the price. My tongue wants it again but my wallet probably won't let it have it.
TL;DR = It was...
ย ย ย Read moreMILKSHAKES, POUTINE FRIES, BANANA PUDDING= AMAZING. Came here for a late lunch and decided to try a couple items on the menu. We first got the griddle hot dog with sauerkraut and onions; it was good but nothing special; they put too much ketchup for my liking (6.5/10). Also got the hamburger, cheeseburger and The BBQ burger. The meat on all burgers were thin, but still juicy..super good! (8.5/10) We got the poutine fries and regular fries. The gravy was amazing, very flavorful especially with the added cheese curds. Finished one order and had to get another. (9/10) We did get a side of the house sauce (basically mayo) for $0.75 which I also thought was a bit much, should at least come for free as a dipping sauce for the fries. We each got our own milkshakes, chocolate, vanilla and strawberry and WOW. Thick and creamy so good but for $6 it was a very small cup and straw was too thin it wasnโt easy to drink because of the thickness. But, flavor wise no complaints. (9.5/10) For dessert we ended with the banana pudding and again WOW. It was so good, had a lot of bananas and cookies, I would say definitely even say it was up there with Magnolia Bakery. (9.5/10)
When you walk in appearance is not the greatest, it doesnโt make me excited to want to eat inside. There were items everywhere, napkins werenโt available in the dispensers on the table, but all could be fixed in the future hopefully. They had self-checkout iPads which I love so I was able to explore the menu and order instead of being confused at the register for our first time. They also brought our food to the table which was nice.
In the end if youโre in the mood for a burger and looking for a quick bite to eat I would give this...
ย ย ย Read moreI originally was a fan of this place and gave them 4 stars, but after my last experience I need to edit this. I tried giving them the benefit of the doubt, but now I need to give the real truth because they might have just lost a customer. My last experience here was quite good, as I said before editing my review it was a very flavorful burger. My 4 stars turned into 2 after my most recent experience. I am not trying to come off as rude but... Did anything change? The burger this time around was bland and unseasoned. I ordered a bacon avocado burger, and the saving grace was the toppings because there was no flavor elsewhere. I ordered the poutine to go with it, which was a big let down. I thought this was supposed to come with cheese, but I really just got a cup of gravy with it. On top of that, it really was just not enough. If I am paying over 5 bucks for fries, I want to see them falling out of the bag jam packed the way 5 guys does it. It is good to enjoy your food, but it is also important to not be hungry anymore after a meal; especially since I spent the same money as I would on a pizza pie that could feed me for an entire day. This meal just left me wanting more and I had to get more food elsewhere. I worked at multiple restaurants, and I can confirm fries are not expensive to make. Some more quantity would go a long way. Back to the burger, I did not really taste the pattie at all, just the toppings as stated. I actually went to this establishment with the intent of treating myself since they do charge a little much for a burger and fries, I was definitely not feeling treated in any way. Overall, this experience turned me off and I am not sure if I...
