• You can actually taste the goodness of the beef in these burgers. The hamburger buns are extraordinary. The "add-ons" are all available and fresh. Perfect! – Jo W, CityVoter
• Everything was fresh and very tasty. There are lots of toppings to choose from, and the workers are very friendly. Good alternative if you want fresh fast food in a nice sit down atmosphere. – Scott Ewen, Urbanspoon
