Justrite Drive-In Restaurant — Restaurant in Rushville

Non-chain/ franchise, family owned, 40+ years in business, hamburger place, right next to McDonald's in Rushville, IN. The place looks almost the same from the day it opened, in a good way, nothing fancy, no frills, just good food at good prices.

Try the fries with the homemade tarter sauce mix, its a classic here, and way better tasting than ketchup. The burger sizes are small to average, and cooked up fresh for you while you wait a few minutes. They offer a different daily lunch special for about $6. A Big J burger is about $3.25 and a Super J burger is about $4, so they are a bit pricey compared to the competition, but the nostalgic taste makes it worth paying more. 60 cents for a drink refill.

When I ate there this afternoon, it was not busy, only couple other patrons, the counter staff seemed busy though, and not overly friendly, no smiles on their faces, so depends on whose working as I have had great cheerful service here before too. These ladies today just didn't seem like they wanted to chat, more like they wanted to get home and relax. They forgot to give my 87 yr old mother her senior citizen discount, I guess because we didn't see the sign during our order time and didn't request it.

I guess this place isn't what I used to remember it being 20 years ago, many great times and memories there, and anytime I go to Rushville, I try and stop here, even if only to get the fries.

Just Rite is a great alternative to the chain burger places, and I do recommend trying them at least once if you're...

A decent burger. However, switching to a daily special instead of having meals and not reflecting that on the menu (or the actual prices because my mom got charged 9.99 for the fish meal that was listed on the menu as 8.69) made it feel not worth the 25 bucks for two. That, on top of the cook completely botching the burger I ordered the first time (gobbed mayonnaise on the 1/2 pounder when it is supposed to be onion, pickles, ketchup and mayo, and tried to argue about it) made the whole experience unappealing to me. Also, I understand having to adjust for rising costs, but having to pay separate for sides instead of paying more of a premium for the meal that includes the fries and drink in the price just...

Just Rite was closed last summer. I believe they are under new ownership . They've spruced the place up a bit, no booths, new tables and chairs and finally a condiment station.

It was much more tidy than in the past. The staff were very prompt, friendly and attentive.

Menu has changed a bit but they still have the "Big J" and those same, great crinkle cut fries with the "sauce" and strawberry Mt Dew!

The Big J was awesome, it was prepared perfectly, not just thrown together. It was picture perfect.

Bottom line; if you're never been, go! If you're a regular, I'm sure you'll agree that the food is actually a bit better than before ( not that it was ever bad) mostly because it was put...
