Other than receiving pickles on a burger I specifically ordered plain, everything was okay…read more Unfortunately, I am allergic to pickles, so this was more than just a minor mistake. I clearly stated in my online order that the burger should be plain with only cheese, and I trusted that those instructions would be followed. As a result, I became sick after eating part of the burger, which was extremely disappointing and concerning. I understand mistakes happen, but this experience has made me hesitant to order again. Customers should be able to trust that special requests and allergy-related instructions will be taken seriously. Especially when it's online and easy to read and follow. I also ordered two mozzarella stick orders, one with marinara sauce, and one with ranch. Got two orders with marinara sauce. No ranch. Annoying.

On this visit we ate in and ordered a butterburger with cheese, the "new" chicken sandwich, and a large fry. So, our order came out wrong. They didn't offer us a receipt at any point and apparently we had been charged for this order, which was a double burger with cheese, the chicken sandwich, no fries. They quickly brought me out some fresh fries at no charge, which I figured averages out the cost of the double burger, so no big deal... but they should be paying a bit more attention. The food was mostly on point. The chicken sandwich is advertised as less dry and more seasoned and it hits those notes well. A good sandwich. The burger was good minus the bun, which was maybe old or stale. The bun on the chicken sandwich was excellent so it was odd to see such a difference. The fries were piping hot. They're good quality but kind of bland. After, I got a Concrete. With chocolate custard, peanut butter, and marshmallow. Again, no receipt, and I felt like it was missing the marshmallow. There were a few ice crystals in it as well, so while it was still good it wasn't up to the quality I expect. The place is still a nicer sit down experience than you'd get at other fast food places but tables weren't clean and needed a wipe down. Feels like they're missing the mark here these days, but almost certainly the best fast food burger you can get around here regardless.

When they put the sign up I was so intrigued as to what B&B would be. Much to my delight it was Greek American style! I grew up eating along this specific fault line of American favorites and Greek classics, so I was psyched to see something like that around here. As soon as I saw they were open I had to stop in. They nailed it here. The clean diner concept was friendly and comfortable. The family run business was putting out, for my money, the best gyros anywhere around! Spinach Pie, another classic and another must have. I got one almost every visit. They did a great job with American stuff, and even a few Mexican style dishes too! I'd get the taco meal a lot actually, it was a great hearty meal. The Greek chicken plates and the lemon chicken soup were some of the best here, these guys knew their way around a chicken! There's plenty more I could say, it's been about 3 years after all... this is a big loss on the community. Nothing hits quite like this spot, it had become a go-to for me. Can't decided what to eat today? Go to B&B. Multiple people in the group want different types of food? Go to B&B. Craving something light? Go to B&B. Need a hearty dinner? Go to B&B. Well, now I can't go to B&B anymore. The area is less inviting without them, it's left a massive hole here that likely won't be filled. Trying to buck up... I'm wishing the family all the best moving forward! They are still running their Facebook page for the business, with a post saying they will have more information soon. Whatever they plan, I hope to be eating their food somewhere not to far from here in the near future. Goodbye for now, hopefully not sayonara. And thanks for the good times!

Not the tourist traps, but more like the small neighborhood places where they can't risk cutting corners. The menu is simple and you don't need much time to pick your order. Its a place where you are probably appreciated if you walk in knowing what you want. That's also authentic to Philadelphia, as I remember. I ordered a classic with ribeye, and provolone. A side of fries and a drink. Drinks are self-serve from the fountain, so I filled my cup and grabbed a table. Only a few minutes later, I had my order. The steak was great.. Plenty of cheese and onion, and on a nice, chewy roll. Look, it's a cheesesteak. Just a darned good, basic cheesesteak. I am not going to attempt to wax poetic about some time in Philly when such and such happened before a Dead Milkmen show, or something. The fries were solid as well. Medium cut and cooked to have a good mix of crispy fries mixed in. They also have a house-made hot sauce that is pretty darned good on the sandwich. If you want an unpretentious meal and are short on time, this is a great option. Good food, fast service and reasonably priced. Give them a try. If you're not a snob, you're gonna like it.

They were great and friendly and I did not mention or complain about the lack of customizations to them nor did I complain about the onions- i did not say a word when trying to figure out kikosk (or tablet whatever you call it) Kikosk ordering at the counter- It would not allow me to add sauce on side. There was no description of what it was so was confusing when ordered at first. The menu/kikosk doesnt say what kind of sauce- drives me crazy when there is no clear definition for people who are picky or cant have certain items in their food. My shake did not come with whipped cream unlike pictures or social media feeds. Fountain drink was flat to my disappointment so got refunded for that only and went with water. Clean taste. Burger has great potential but if they are not allowing us to customize it to our own preference it will fail in this location. Lack of toppings to my dismay- When I got my burger with the sauce cheese and grilled onions, it looked good at first glance. When I bit into the grilled onions it was not tender/soft it was like eating stringy rope with the burger yanking it out with my teeth . Sauce wasnt memoriable for me. Still have no idea what it consisted of even few days later. Again Bun/meat was delish driving me on eating the burger. Fries were ok- nothing to write home about. Not coming back though until they improve on some areas. This is too expensive for the mistakes/lack of customization/options for a picky person like me. If it was signifcantly less in cost I would have let it slide and bring home plain burgers and customize it at home. But this was a HUGE bucket list for me being open minded about what went on my burger (I usually ask for plain with certain toppings only) Best of luck to this establishment!

The quest for a great burger is never-ending…read more There's a place for all kinds in burger world, and the iconic smash burger is a classic. If your doing it, do it right! Meat N Melt is doing it right. We had the smash burger combo with a shake and fries. The burger was good! Well seasoned and well cooked. I don't love shredded lettuce, makes things messier than they need to be, next time I'd remove that. Also, I'd like some tomato but it's not an option here. The fries are very crispy and stayed that way, but they got cold fast. Somehow they didn't hold their initial temperature well but they were great while still hot. I had the biscoff shake, love that option. Good flavor, and the combo is a nice value at just a 5 dollar up-charge. Really this place reminds me of Steak N Shake before the whole franchise went down hill, and looking at the name maybe that's what they're going for. There are some cons here. The place doesn't have any character, despite plenty of seating, so no real reason to do anything but take out. Also, it was freezing in there on this visit. Too cold to eat inside at all, and if your getting a shake you don't want to be that cold already. Self order pad... I wish they wouldn't do this. It's self pickup at the counter so there's no service. The menu is bare bones, which is fine, but it's odd that you can't get toppings they offer on loaded fries on your burger as well. Cross utilize those products guys! A few more topping options would make a big difference honestly. And just from a business perspective, you could use a kids meal. All in all I plan to return, when I feel like a smash burger this will be go-to for now. The mango shake and loaded fries are calling my name as well.

When I think of Franks For The Memories, I think of some of the best wings I've ever had. This was…read morethe first place where I truly experienced top tier wings, and funny enough, it all started with one random wing back in high school. I remember being at lunch one day when I ran into one of my friend's sisters and some of her friends. They had wings, and since the last time I checked our school definitely didn't sell wings, I jokingly asked what they were eating. They told me where they were from and let me try one. After I finished that wing, I immediately wanted another. I couldn't just ask for one, so instead I basically interrogated them. What's the name of the place? Where is it? How far away? To my surprise, Franks was only about 10 minutes away. The funny part is I didn't actually get to truly experience Franks until after high school. I had been a fan of wings for years, but I didn't really know what a great wing was yet. Looking back, I didn't realize how lucky I was that Franks was one of my first introductions to genuinely great wings. Fast forward about 15 years and I'm still eating them. I usually get Franks every two or three months, and recently I realized it had been a while. My order almost never changes. Two pounds of mild and two pounds of medium. I always order them to go, and even after the ride home, they still taste fresh and juicy. I usually start with the medium, and that first bite always reminds me why I keep coming back. You bite into tender, juicy meat followed by that crisp exterior and Buffalo sauce. Everything complements each other perfectly. You have tender chicken, crunch on the outside and sauce covering the entire wing. These aren't wings where you get one great bite followed by a section with barely any sauce. They are saucy, and I mean saucy. The medium sauce is probably my favorite. It has that peppery Buffalo flavor with a noticeable acidic tang and enough heat to make itself known. The acidity gives it a sharp Buffalo bite while the pepper and heat follow right behind it. Mix that with the juicy chicken and crispy exterior and it's a beautiful combination. Then you have the mild. The mild has a similar flavor, but the buttery taste comes through more. It's smoother and richer without losing what makes the sauce good. Sometimes the mild and medium sauces mix together, and those might be some of the best bites. You get the buttery richness from the mild mixed with the peppery, acidic kick and heat from the medium. It just works. That's what I love about these wings. They look simple. You might look at them and think you know exactly what you're about to get. Then you bite into one and realize there is nothing simple about the flavor. When I eat these wings, I'm genuinely at peace. I'll go out with cousins or friends, talk, joke around and enjoy the food together. With Franks, it doesn't matter. Eating these wings is an experience on its own. Once I start, I'm in my own little world enjoying every bite. The only bad part is knowing eventually I'm going to run out. I always make sure I have some left for the next day. If something tastes this good, why experience it only once when I can wake up knowing I still have Franks waiting for me? What might impress me most is the consistency. I've been eating these wings for around 15 years, and whether I think back five years, 10 years or 15 years, I know what I'm getting when I order Franks. I honestly can't remember a time when I finished their wings and walked away disappointed. After all these years, they still stand tall. They're juicy, tender, crispy, loaded with sauce and packed with flavor. The medium brings that peppery heat and acidic tang, while the mild brings that buttery richness. Are they the best wings I've ever had? They might be. These wings don't kid around.
