Top Review: “Amazing burgers! The original snarfburger is my favorite, but honestly you can’t go wrong. Fries are also good; they use a cracked pepper seasoning so there is a little more flavor.
Service is also friendly and helpful. The customer service is great, and I would definitely recommend this place.” –Jillian M.

The service here is outstanding, and unlike most restaurants, it was actually not loud. They play a great selection of ’70s ’80s and ’90s rock music which I really liked. Everything you want in a good restaurant. The price was moderate to moderate expensive. *Free parking and plenty. *They have gluten-free bread and many other options that work for people with restrictions. –Alicia S.
