    The Dr. John burger is soooooo good. And get a Mexican Coke (made with REAL sugar, not HFCS) while you are there.

    This place was gross! Burger was supposed to be medium rare- thing was rare. Fries were so greasy they were glistening- almost as though the oil wasn't hot enough and then the fries were just soaked

    Friers go down more than a $2 hooker on payday....but rumor has it they're getting new ones soon. They've been down the past 2 times I've come.
