I saw it on an advertisement on the bottom of the OT.

Thoughts?

The pic looks identical to Mooyah Burger.

Decent FF burger, but I prefer Mooyah in this category. Worth checking out.

I am seldom ever in that area, but I will stop by the next time I am.

There was a thread here when they first opened. It was critical on several points. My point was that the fries were EXTREMELY salty. Several people really liked their shakes.

One of the owners responded and said all the right things. I would give them the benefit of the doubt.

Personally, I thought the prices showed great pride in their food, if you get my drift.

one issue I have with the website..

quote:

Our flagship location is on the river side of Veteran's Boulevard, between Richland Avenue and Cleary Avenue.

Location:3934 Veterans Boulevard Metairie, LA 70002


They only have one location. Become a chain first, then act like one. \

Napoleon, agreed. I can also tell you they were advised against putting that up on their website for the reason you mentioned.One step at a time.

That being said, I enjoyed my burger and fries. The shake machine is a helluva way to get families in the door too.

Yep, kind of like Lee's Drive Inn in Hammond claiming they are the only link in the world's smallest chain.

Been there a couple of times.

When they first opened, I felt that there burgers tasted burnt. They then changed the way they cooked the burgers and it is much better.

Like others have said, the shakes are probably the best thing there but are about $5 each. Other food is pretty pricey as well, at least for a burger place.

Yeah, I agree with this. They are better now than they were the first few months.

I live near there and go there a couple times a month. I like a hard, toasted bun, and they told me they don't do that. And yes, sometimes the fries are too salty.

I like the shakes, but wish they had a smaller size available.

But, the burgers are pretty good.

I really like Mooyah. But my experience involves the Metairie location and Riverwalk location.
