⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Stacy Brown
We were staying at the state park and went into town to find something to eat and passed this place on the way to the only restaurant listed on Google (this one shows on the map but isn’t listed if you click restaurants) and ended up back here when we didn’t feel like waiting to eat. We ordered 4 meals and were told it would be 15-20 mins, so we ran across the street to the dollar store to get some forgotten items while we waited for the food to be cooked fresh. Everything was good! The fries were amazingly hot, salty and crispy. The beef nachos were good, the meat was like Philly cheesesteak meat. The patty melt was perfect. The double cheeseburger was good. He got a chili dog also, but is saving that for a midnight snack. The chicken bacon ranch sub was huge with real chicken breast, real whole bacon slices cooked perfectly on a toasted bun. I tried to get pictures before everything got scarfed down! Definitely worth stopping to order for a good fast food, prices are fair too.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Rachael Skipper
Got there right when they were closing. (No where else stays open for dinner, it seems!) They catered to me, made sure when I picked my food up, that I had everything i needed, also, tried not to accept my tip when I knew they deserved it. I ordered chili dogs and fries. These fries are the best, real home cooked fries. Tasted just like mini fried potatoe wedges! So glad they are here in town!

Worth every penny. Double Cheese Burger was great! Can't wait to try more things off the menu.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Jerry Emery
It may not look like much being a roadside service window, but their Smashburger is right up there with a Five Guys for almost half the price. The onion rings are nice and crispy too.
