Customer Reviews

"Excellent food, great service. The double cheeseburger basket was awesome."

- Rocki M.

"So glad to have this back. Is it perfect? No, but then what is. I love the rings, the burgers are what I remember, and the italian steak is excellent. Between them, Fritz's, and Eaton's this were my go tos in the 80's. Is it more expensive than back the 80's? Yes, but so is Fritz's and everything else. If you want cheap, McD's will do yah (but even that is way more $$$ than it used to be). What it has is a taste of old home, and that is *priceless*. Show them some grace as the shoes they are trying to fill are enormous. The lines are sometimes a bit long, but that means they hopefully are making enough to keep the concern going for the foreseeable future."

"Update 10/1525. I have been back few times and they have been faster, nice and good is delicious. It taste the same as before they closed down, which is amazing to me! I went twice, the first time, they told me the wait was 20 minutes. I waited 1 hour and 45 minutes. I went to ask where was I in line, and she told me, I had 11 people still in front of me. I asked for a refund and left. The 2nd time, I asked ppl waiting in line how much they were waiting, was told over an hour. So I just left. I'm giving it a few more months before I go again."
