So this is a diner type restaurant that you might not even know what you're looking at until you see it. There's no flashy sign or anything like that. It does look a little rundown but when you get in there, you want me to disappointed. Well I can only speak for myself but I wasn't disappointed at all. I stood at the front counter, and ordered from the menu which is up above. Don't expect any signage, this is old school diner style after all. Gloria took my order, she was patient as I looked on the menu to see what I wanted, so I have no complaints. She was super nice! They weren't really anybody else in the establishment so I was able to sit down wherever I wanted to. I ordered a burger and fries and a water and had a seat. And while I was sitting there there was a TV that let me watch some recaps of the NBA playoffs. Anyway, the burger was really good. It came out quick, the fries came out hot and fresh. They're more like potato wedges but that's perfectly okay! The burger itself was made with what seem like fresh ingredients, onions and tomatoes and all that. I have no complaints about that. Now there's no other condiments on the table though. So she gave me a bottle of ketchup and then I had to ask for mayonnaise. So usually you would have a self-serve place that would have a condiment bar or already have it at the table so it was interesting that they didn't have anything like that for a burger spot but that's not the end of the world. The quality of the burger was good. Would I go back, absolutely! The burger was good and filling, all the vegetables crunched, the fries came out removed grease on them so you know that came straight out to fryer, Burger Patty was pretty decently seated. Good fine, kind of a hole in the wall type of situation but you know those hole in the wall situations have the best food. read more

Great burger!! Good sized portions. Good quick service. Hwy 58 is my favorite. Great diversity on the menu.

Me and my friend and her daughter had a bad experience at this business. The pork chops was not done and tough. I never knew pork chops to be tough also the manager Beth had a nasty attitude when we tried to explain this to her. She was very rude and just unbelievable with her way of saying she didn't care. Me or my family will never eat there again the service was terrible and the cook was laughing as if she did it on purpose. The experience we encountered was horrible and I use to love eating there just been disappointed the last 2 visits so we won't be going back and the greens was nasty and over cooked. read more

We stopped in after leaving sports park and thought the food was really good and price was reasonable. Just a classic little burger joint that knows how to do it right. We had enough food to take a to go box. read more

My first visit was not impressive. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger and Tater tots to go. Hard to get in and out of this place when it's a full parking lot. The staff was super friendly. Got my burger back to office (5 min drive) and it was so soggy and the bacon was just fat no meat (posted a pic). The lettuce and the bun were so soggy and wilted that I just took everything off and ate the burger by itself. Which I will say DID have a good flavor. The tots were soggy as well and I didn't eat them because the texture was just too bad. Maybe eating there vs getting it to-go would have made a difference ?? Not sure if I am willing to find out. read more

Great spot but deceptive when you first drive-up & park. And, Ok--maybe when you enter. BUT don't turn back 'cause if you do you will miss some of the best food in Chattanooga! It ain't fancy but if you like hamburgers or cheeseburgers THESE ARE THE BEST I've found in The Scenic City if the South. And the cat fish is superb! And the service is fast, friendly, and efficient. I'll do lunch there whenever I'm in town. Take C-burgers to go for later. C-fish or barbecue too. The food is just plain damn good. So don't punish your taste buds by missing this place! I kid you NOT! Go tomorrow. It's Friday so treat yourself. read more

Went here after a dentist appointment, no judging me lol. The food was pretty good; I got a hamburger steak and fries. The steak itself was pretty classic southern cooking, if a little bit chewy. The fries were the perfect golden crisp. The service was pretty great, we sat down, ordered, and got our food in ~15 minutes. The overall feel of the restaurant was a nice classic Southern Tennessee Hole-in-the-wall. read more

I have been here several times and have never been disappointed with the burger or the onion rings. However I placed a call in about 5:20 for a Reuben sandwich, when we got the sandwich I'm not really sure what it was supposed to be but it was NOT a Reuben, it was on rye bread but that is as close as it gets.It was made with roast beef, and white American cheese. They had closed at 6:00 and we had no choice but to eat (we were at the hospital without any other choice) I waited until after the "lunch rush ' the following day to call and explain to the manager, However she didn't want to hear it and told me that if I couldn't bring the sandwich back then there was nothing she could do. I completely understand working in food service over 25 years myself. But I explained that I had pictures, Still nothing I guess I was expecting an "I'm sorry you were not satisfied with your food's Thank you read more

The food is good! I had the baby back ribs and the meat was very tender and smoked just right. My son and boyfriend had the country fried steak and there was nothing left! I'd recommend this place. read more

Looks can definitely be deceiving. A coworker recommended I check out Armando's for lunch, and upon arriving, I was a little hesitant, especially since I was alone and not familiar with the area. To my surprise, it was delightful. I encountered probably the nicest people I met during my trip to Chattanooga. The restaurant reminds me of being back home with family in Mississippi. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger, and it was the BEST meal I had in Chattanooga, and because I was there for a business trip (7 days), I ate out for every meal. The food was also really affordable. I wish they had a tip option for credit card payments as I didn't have cash and thought the service definitely warranted a tip. High recommend! read more

Greek salad with olives that have pits, naw, and by the way telling me to wear a mask over the phone. Guess thats my LAST steak in a sack, it wasnt that good anyway. The original Armandos, when the old guys were alive beats this new armandos. I wouldnt waste my time. read more

For 40 years I have gone here as it is one of the best burgers in town. You just can't go wrong with one of these burgers.

Not in the nicest part of town, not in the nicest building. Probably haven't spent a dollar on advertising in the last 3 years. Seek it out. $9 bucks for a burger, tots, and a Coke. About the price of a trip to Hardee's, but with a better burger, and freaking tater tots. Seriously, the burgers are pretty legit. Stop in. read more

I was here for a take out order on 3/1/2019 at around 1:15 pm at the Main St. restaurant.For starters, I have loved the burgers and fries/tots since I was in grade school (Eastside Junior High) back in the '80's. So it saddens me to say that I just had the most unpleasant hamburger and tots. What got me to write this was that the burger was actually smaller than the bun. Still the same bun, but the paddy was way small. The meat was still tasty, I guess I'm just spoiled by your big patties. I actually had over a1/4 of bread left, copious amounts of lettuce and a tomato with the green core still in the center. Let's get to the tots. How can you mess up tots, you may wonder. Glad you asked. They were not cooked. Still a little chewy in the center and not crunchy at all. I want to say I know this was probably out of the ordinary for your fine establishment but I really want you to step up the quality control and get back to the big patties. Have a blessed day!! read more

This a great place to eat. The food is good (especially the legendary hamburgers), and the service is excellent! I love this place!
