aioli), fries, and an iced tea (boo for no Diet Coke)!

How would you describe your burger?

Doug E. Fresh:  Soft bun, thick flavorful patty, grilled mush & onion

J-Bug:  It was good

NB:  No flavor, but the cole slaw was good & the guacamole made the burger better

3 Dees:  Sloppy & delish!

Shaniqua:  It was eaten in the car because it took a while to come out.  Because of that I didn't  have the chance to use condiments, i.e.  ketchup/mustard.  That caused the burger to be pretty dry.  The flavor of the bacon and onions was excellent but there were only 2 jalapenos (which is disappointing to this heat seeker).  The fries were good but would have been better if they didn't get soggy in the styrofoam container. 

RM:  Great flavor, bland meat

KP:  Steak and shake would be pissed, very delicious!

MareBear:  Very dry and flavorless.  Mushy. 

Beaner:  Very tasty, perfectly cooked, cheese was melted

Seven:  Loved the cheese, good pretzel bun, slightly over cooked.

kt:  Very hearty.  Great bun, fresh cheese, but needed more basil.  The balsamic aioli was delicious!

MareBear:  Doug E. Fresh!!!
