Good spot for a quick bite, they have something for everyone. I had the Big Beef and Spicy Garlic Fries. Both were really good and the Fries are fresh cut.

Had the Italian beef and fries. Bun was dipped just right, not too dry, not too wet. A lot of beef on the sandwich, as you can see. Note, this is the SMALL fries. Food and service was good, as usual.

The restaurant is super cute and retro looking on inside. However the food was gross, my hot dog bun was so hard i could have broken a window with it. The hot dog was very dry as well. They serve pepsi products and has a 3.5% upcharge if you pay with a card instead of cash. I was extremely disappointed in my food. I wont be back for a really long time or until they get fresh hot dog buns in. You can tell in pictures how bad the bun was.

Cool place full of Route 66 and old movie star picture memorabilia. Counter service is quick and the pricing is very reasonable. They get the food out fast and hot. I’d never had a Chicago dog with cucumber but that’s how they make them here. Both the Chicago and chili dogs were good and I’m giving special mention to the hand cut fries.

I had the beef with nacho cheese, giardiniera and asked for it to be drowned. Fries with nacho cheese and giardiniera. Love the interior. I'll definitely be back. Just wish the giardiniera was hotter (but I like HOTT) and the beef would have been wetter (but i like my beefs ridiculously wet) I definitely recommend this place. Flavors are on point!

Hamburger was good. It comes with lettuce, tomato, onion, ketchup, mustard and pickle. It is big (and tasty). I came here because I saw a picture of the fries which are fresh cut every day. I got the small, but it serves two people. I thought the oil must have been old because the color of the fries was quite dark. I was previously told by someone that use to work at McDonald's that the darker the fries the darker they will be. Look at the picture and you be the judge. I personally was disappointed in the fries, but the burger was good. I will go back and check on the fries again.
