The Cougar Den — Restaurant in Four Corners States

The Cougar Den is a total gem in the small town of Burlington. It’s got arcade games, pool tables, and enough entertainment to keep everyone happy — whether you’re feeling competitive or just want to kick back.

The food was so good. The pizza was cheesy perfection, the artichoke dip was dangerously addictive, and the burgers were the kind you think about days later. And the desserts? Next level.

But the only ended up being 6 onion rings in the basket with a pile of fries hidden beneath them just to make it look like there was more in the basket, which seems quite deceptive. To add insult to injury, the fries in the bottom were mainly just a bunch of burnt end pieces that weren't even edible. When I complained to the staff, they just said "sorry, that's the way it is" and didn't offer any means of...
