went there for dinner last night, had the debris fries and double decker burger w/ onion rings, friend had the reuben. fries were delicious, portion was big too. the burger was too much to finish, meat was perfectly cooked and bun was soft w/ sweet taste. i tried a bite of the reuben and i was impressed. overall it was a great experience.

I don't understand why restaurants build a burger that can't fit in your mouth.

Went recently. Portions are very big. The burger was overcooked but it did taste good. I agree with J Murdah, the sizes of some of these burgers are getting out of hand. I feel like Guy on DDD trying to eat them.

I had the roast beef poboy. Was surprised that they got their bread from Nola. Props to that. The taste was very good but my only complaint was how it was built, specifically the roast beef. The roast is so cut up and diced that the poboy is impossible to keep together, and I opted out of the extra gravy option. I couldnt get past the first bite without having to construct the poboy again with each bite. Super messy and annoying to eat. I just quit and ate it with a fork and knife. I dont know if this is being nitpicky though. They should make the roast beef sliced or at least somewhat in the same ballpark as sliced.

I like the layout of the place and I think Fuzzys next door should help.

I've been twice and enjoyed different burgers both times... plus tried some of HC's chicken sandwich and it was delicious. The burgers are very well seasoned, even if they insist on cooking to medium.

It's definitely a messy over-topped burger, but I'd prefer that to leaving me underwhelmed.

Looks pretty good. I prefer the thicker cut onion rings to those thin strings though.

They need to upgrade the buns they put on the patty.

I will be back for sure, but probably to try a sandwich instead of a burger.

Everything on the burger, including the bun, I really liked. But the patty was overcooked and bland. Those fluffy sweet buns are made to sop up patty juice, IMO, and that can't be done with a patty that is overcooked/not juicy.

I hate this. If I want my burger to taste sweet, I would ask for carmalized onions or something. Just give me a regular bun that doesn't taste so sweet. Same reason why I don't go to fat cow.


That being said, I did go to your moms recently, and it was awesome. I got the grilled chicken cesar salad.

I've had the opposite experience both times... well, it was cooked to medium which is more than I'd prefer, but it was still a juicy medium, and plenty of flavor. Definitely neither dry nor bland.

It's a distraction.

I always go with jalapeño unless I'm getting the PB&J burger.
