“ I've had many of burgers but this one here is the truth. Try the sweet & Smokey BBQ burger. You won't regret it. Awesome place. ”
“ My mom ordered a regular burger with no cheese and a baked potato. My dad ordered a patty melt with an egg, no bread, and a baked sweet potato. I had the BBQ burger and fries. Everything was cooked fresh and arrived to the table piping hot. My dad is difficult to please, and he was EXTREMELY impressed with the flavor. My mom has some dietary restrictions, and they were very happy to accommodate. My burger was also cooked to perfection and very flavorful. We will be back!!! ”
“ Gabriel was very helpful with helping us with choices. Everyone was very pleased with the food, the fries had the best taste and the shrimp po-boy was perfectly spicy too. We highly recommend this gem in Cool Springs on Mayfield Drive. BTW, Emma (my granddaughter) had the Wagyu burger and raved about it! Thank you Gabriel for an excellent experience! ”
“ This place is so much better than 5 Guys!! Hamburgers are bigger than the bun & a side is included. I had a mushroom swiss burger that also had grilled onions and fresh crisp bacon; my side was a loaded sweet potato. My date had a cheeseburger and fries which were hot and crisp. They also have baked potatoes that you can load up, fries with a hamburger on top, good size salads, and loaded fries. There are about 12 tables. ”
“ Greeted enthusiastically as we walked in the door. Loved that. The gentleman answered all our questions so thoroughly that my son asked if he owned the place. He said I just make the burgers! We were celebrating our son’s 21st birthday so we ordered all double burgers, loaded fries, and spicy fried pickles. We were not disappointed! The meat was high quality and tasted delicious. It’s amazing to have great food but it’s even better to have friendly engaging staff. Keep it up! ”
“ My son and I had a great experience at this location. The burgers and sliders were exceptional! We shared fries and tater tots. The staff was friendly and attentive. They have great sauces for dipping too. Daniel, Hosea and Gabe are the best!!!! Go try this location, you will be happy that you did. ”
