    The burgers are big and juicy! If you can handle a triple stack, go for it. My only complaint was the bun was soggy and broke apart a little. Overall it was well worth it!

    burger with lettuce, tomato, pesto mayo and Swiss on wheat was perfect. Their complementary hot chocolate made with blend of spices, with a little kick was something, never had anything like that!

    Don't put ketchup on those buns! Ask for an extra dipping sauce - then smother your burger in it!

    Check to see whether your fries are soggy. They practice refrying even when the oil isn't hot enough.
