"I ordered the Patriot Burger, and it was as good as any burger I’ve had anywhere, and believe me, I’ve been to a lot of places! It was DELICIOUS! The best burger we’ve had in a long time. The patties were juicy and packed with flavor, with no fillers in sight. The fresh toppings were perfectly seasoned, and the buns were lightly toasted on the inside, creating a soft exterior and a crisp interior before you reach the juicy meat and fresh veggies. It looked amazing too—almost too pretty to eat! My wife and I were absolutely delighted with the burgers. The fries were seasoned just right and served at the perfect temperature. They were deliciously crispy on the outside with the ideal texture on the inside—not too thick or too thin—and they had a melt-in-your-mouth quality. You simply must try their southwestern egg rolls! The portion is hearty, and the taste is incredible. My wife found the southwestern sauce had a bit of a kick (since she doesn’t usually enjoy spicy food), but she still devoured them. If you prefer something milder (the spice level is honestly low), you can always opt for ranch dressing instead. Both options are VERY GOOD. The service was prompt, friendly, and engaging. We genuinely enjoyed interacting with the staff. We were pleasantly surprised by the prices, which are quite reasonable given the high quality of food in comparison to other local options—about one-third the price but much better quality! As for the atmosphere, it definitely has a dive bar vibe. We went in at 5 PM on a Monday when it was relatively quiet, so I can't comment on how it feels during busier times, but it could benefit from a little aesthetic upgrade. There was a slight smell of cigarette smoke while we were there—not overpowering and possibly from a nearby source rather than inside the restaurant. I’m sensitive to smoke, but it wasn’t strong enough to bother me. Food is available for takeout, and it took about 12-15 minutes after we ordered to receive our meal, which gave us time to browse a nearby antique shop. It surprised me to learn that this restaurant has been around for 30 years; how had I never noticed it before? Now that I've discovered it, I’ll be sure to spread the word and return with friends!"
