I stopped by one in Gulfshores last summer and the food and the service really sucked.
Maybe it was just an off day, but I didn't see anything special going on in that place that would make me think going back for another trip would be worth it.

I'd say it's slightly above cheeburger cheeburger in quality.

Flopped at The River in Rancho Mirage. Poor service did not help.

Ate at one in Miami. Close to the worst service and burger I'd ever had.

I ate there for quick lunch in Cabo - average food, terrible service. Decent milk shake but that's really the only compliment I can give?

I had heard Perkins Rowe also - which I thought was a terrible idea with Camellia Grill going there.

The place we went seemed to have been only open a few weeks and it was def. showing. It seemed like all of the people seated around us were having problems getting what they ordered.
We got our fries and then 15 minutes later the burger and drinks came.
Just by watching the staff and all of the confusion, they must not have had any training plan in place and hired nothing but inexperience people.

You'd better love it...when you leave, you're going to smell just like it. They're all over in SoCal; we dug on 'em a lot, but Ruby's Diner was better.

It is Perkins Rowe. On the back side of Barnes and Noble across from the parking garage. Not sure when but should be soon.

This is a good example of a eatery to try when you are stuck in a place with bad food. The state of Alabama north of I-10 for example.

Paul you mentioned Brigtsen's in an NO thread and you want someone to stop a post about chains in BR? BR could be a great food town, if the percentage of chef owned eateries would rise and the populace would stop eating at Olive Garden.

Hey man, you're 100% right, sorry about that...I just get mad since I'm a BR native.

We need to be a great food city!
