    Oops My thought was to take the picture prior to me eating it. Just say the Turkey Burger w/ Sweet Potato fries is all good!

    Happy Solar Returns Beans & BoonDocks Was here to wish the grand kiddos a happy birthday Really nice lady waited on our table I love this place -those milkshakes The chunky Elvis, no it's the banana pudding, nah it's the fried pickles I promise you, nope maybe the onion rings! Just get in here. They have an outdoor area and at night the ambiance is everything. Rooftop!

    I ate dinner here with a friend today and our experience was great. I got the bistro burger and it tasted awesome. I switched out the chipotle avocado crema with garlic mayo because I'm allergic to avocados but didn't change anything else. I would happily order it again! I liked the fries too and the sauce they give you with the meal (am forgetting the name of it.) Also the margaritas we ordered were good! Ambiance was cool, nothing to write home about. Service was great! We really liked our server Liya. I had forgotten her name but the other reviews mentioning her helped jog my memory. She was very friendly :) Prices are super reasonable in my opinion and parking is plentiful. I'm sure I'll be back sometime.

    Had a great experience! We were seated immediately and were greeted by a wonderful host. Our server was very friendly and professional. Probably one of the best burgers I've had in a long time! Sorry I forgot to take pics of my burger and tots! It was that good!

    Bad Daddy's was a great place to meet up with some friends and have a really great burger. Bad Daddy's has a really cool interior with the some solid service, nothing super outstanding but definitely nothing to complain about, everyone was nice and attentive. The best part of the meal was the Smash Burger which I found delicious. I'm usually not a big fan of your typical burger but I love smash burgers. This was a great burger and makes me excited to go back soon (I think the smash burger may have been a limited time item or a new release, so I hope it stays forever). The fries were really good too, definitely better than just your standard fries. A couple of things that I unfortunately have to mention was the pretty basic and average bacon queso. We split the appetizer and none of us thought it was any good, the bacon wasn't great and the chips seemed a little burnt. One more thing that may seem nitpicky is that the fries do not come standard with the entree which I think is a must for a burger spot. Overall I can't be too mad at Bad Daddy's because the burger they deliver is still worth the price and the queso might have just had an off night and is not their main thing there. I am definitely wanting to go back soon for another burger and hoping the smash burger stays on the menu for a long long time!

    Nick's Patty Melt, Mac & Cheese (could've used some seasoning)
    Caycee S.

    first time coming here and OH, my goodness! got a melt sandwich with onions and mac and cheese and loved both. i also loved the sweet tea .. it wasn't overly sweet like some fast food chains can be sometimes. took a minute for the food to be brought out, and i was a to go order but it was worth it. would love to come back and will! also, the bbq sauce is amazing too !

    Hot Kim's Honey Chicken yum! Sweet potato fries (a la carte)

    Really enjoyed this place. Came on a random Wednesday afternoon. Was greeted right away by Benson (?sp). He was very friendly and had great suggestions about the menu. I ordered the hot honey chicken sandwich and sweet potato fries. Chicken sandwich was delicious! Really enjoyed the flavor and fries were good and perfectly crispy. Service was very attentive. The only thing-- they could clean tables off better. I decided to sit outside since it was sunny out but table had a coating of dirt, yuck! Another thing I liked is their daily happy hour specials 3-6 pm on weekdays. I ordered a $5 salad from it that was really good! The other items on the menu looked good too. I believe I was told they have $3 margaritas on Tuesday! I'll have to come back that day to try one!

    Not Your Mama's Deviled Eggs

    We've been here lots of times and this always calms the burger crave. Tried a new burger "Bad Ass Burger" and it is HUGE. Enough for two. It is good, but won't order again because I barely ate half of it. My son could have finished it and a side item!! My guest ordered the Western Burger which is a Buffalo Pattie. New experience and they gave it a thumbs up. One of my favorite items is the deviled eggs. Deep fried whites topped with traditional deviled egg filling and a jalapeño. I think the best part of the eggs is the salad served as the bedding- it's always my side, no need for fries!! Nice atmosphere, and reliable service. Give them a try.

    Daddy might be bad, but he serves up some seriously good burgers. Bad Daddy's is currently our favorite spot for burgers, and it's wild that we stumbled upon it purely by accident while we were headed someplace else. Burgers are clearly the name of the game here, and they're done well. We always go for the make-your-own burgers, which can be ordered by penciling in all our preferences - proteins, bun choice, meat doneness, cheeses, sauces, and other burger accoutrements. Premium toppings like avocado or bacon come with an unsurprising upcharge, and the gluten-free bun is an extra $2. But it's a nominal price to pay for the comfort of ordering a burger that's exactly what you want. Speaking of the gluten-free bun, I tried it today, and it was one of the better ones I've tried, with a sturdy and slightly crumbly bread texture. Meat burgers are excellent here, but there are also black bean burgers for vegetarians. In short, there's something for everyone here. To wit, the other side of the make-your-own burger form is the make-your-own-salad form with more dizzying arrays of customizability. If we had any qualms, it would be with the fries. The serving size has always been a little smaller than we would have liked, and we've ordered both the 'single' and 'double' serving. Every time we've ordered it, our fries have always been ever so slightly soggy, which makes me think they might be leftovers from a batch cook rather than made to order. Fries notwithstanding, the food has never let us down and it's important to note that Bad Daddy's hits all the other high notes of a great dining experience. The wait time for our meals has never been more than fifteen minutes and the servers are friendly to boot. There's a well-stocked bar off to the side for those needing a little something extra with their meals, and the cool garage look is perfect for creating a welcoming and relaxed restaurant vibe. There's plentiful seating both indoors and al fresco under umbrellas, but I'd personally recommend sitting inside after watching a couple fight a losing battle with a few bees this afternoon (apparently they love the burgers here too).

The person on the box was very friendly and provided excellent customer service when taking our order. Then when pulling around they double checked that everything was correct and sent us on our way. I would definitely recommend. Enjoy.

I opted out of the arugula that comes on it by default. I also got their mac n' cheese, and a chocolate shake. It may be the way their brisket blend always is, but the burger patty was a bit tough or overcooked compared to what I'm used to with a standard Angus beef burger or steak burger. It also lacked seasoning, but was saved by the goat cheese and jam. The bun was ok, and it was very messy as 3 of my 4 fried green tomatoes slid out immediately along with a healthy portion of goat cheese and jam. I ate at their outdoor seating area so no biggy, but I definitely wouldn't eat this in your car. However, the fried green tomatoes were very good. The mac n cheese was mediocre and the chocolate shake was good but had an overpowering flavor of Hershey's syrup. Even though it was very busy between the cars at the drive thru and delivery drivers waiting for order pickups, my meal came out in about five minutes. The staff was super friendly and attentive. I've eaten burgers all over the world and I would recommend the visit, but it doesn't rank anywhere near my top 25. Since this was my first visit I plan on returning a couple more times soon so I can try other burger options and update my review if I experience anything different. Burger: 3.7/5 (the toppings carried it) Mac n cheese: 2.5/5 Shake: 3.5/5 Note: No indoor seating. Outside seating available.

I had never tried their food before but read some reviews and figured it was worth a try. Their website offered easy ordering in advance so we didn't have to time it out the day of. We ended up going for 100 wings which came with 4 different flavors. We opted for honey hot, medium, lemon pepper wet and hot teriyaki, but then the website made us choose flavors for 5 random wings? Confusing lol, but I did it so we could complete the order. For 100 wings, he ended up paying about $103 after taxes. Not too bad! I wasn't there when he picked up the order but they did text and email him in advance to confirm that the order was ready, and even called him to be sure he knew they were ready for pickup. When he returned with the wings, it was a huge tray that included the wings separated by dividers as well as some celery. The wings weren't huge but they worked. The varied flavors were delicious - the lemon pepper wet were my favorites! They also included a bunch of small ranch/blue cheese cups on the side. Such a smooth ordering process and a delicious bunch of wings - will definitely order again.

I'd sent it to my better half and he said, "let's go." OK... it's a hole in the wall in a strip center. But you know that sometimes those places are absolutely wonderful. And this was one of those times. From the time we walked in, we were welcomed. The lady working the front went through the menu... explained the options and even told us about options that weren't listed. I decided on the Heat Combo... the hubby decided on the Regular Combo. You're going to find that everything is made to order. So nothing just sitting around. The sandwiches are what I'd call burritos in a bun. Wrapped in foil and then paper. We were warned to keep the foil on... And with good reason! These are not sit in the car and eat sandwiches. They're moist... they're juicy and DELICIOUS! Now, I got the one called the Heat. It was not overly spicy but had a good level of heat. I was told if you like it spicy, just ask for hot sauce. I'm kinda torn by that because the general flavor of the sandwich is really good and wouldn't want to cover that up. The Combo comes with thick potato wedges. They were good and neither of us were able to finish all of them. They have some side dipping sauces I want to try next time. We opted to dine in. The dining room is a bit small and standard. There are only about 4 or 5 tables. But, it's clean (spotless clean) and does the trick. I imagine if it's busy it can get quite full. Honestly... this style of food is pretty unique to the Metro. It's not quite a Philly Restaurant... it's not quite a traditional Chili Shop... It's more of what you'd see with a "loose meat" restaurant from the Midwest. But whatever you think it is, it works. And we'll be back!

    Great service and great food. Highly recommend. I will be back to try additional dishes very soon.read more

The food was excellent, the drinks were on point, and our waitress did an awesome job handling such a large party. She stayed on top of everything and made sure we were taken care of all night. After dinner, we decided to check out the speakeasy through the freezer door--Eleanor's--and unfortunately, that's where the experience took a turn. The atmosphere itself was nice--semi-dark with a cool concept--but it could definitely lean more into a darker, more immersive speakeasy vibe. The bigger issue, though, was the service. It was night and day compared to upstairs. The waitress came across as rude and unwelcoming from the start. A few of us sat down in a small corner area with an L-shaped bench and some extra chairs we had to pull over ourselves. Obviously, with 12 people, there was no way we were all fitting there, yet she insisted she wouldn't take any drink orders until everyone was seated. That made no sense, especially since there was standing room and even a bar-height table available. To make matters worse, there was zero acknowledgment of the birthday--not even a simple "happy birthday," which felt like a missed opportunity given the occasion. When we asked about Fireball shots, the response was a blunt "um, no," followed by "you can have water," as she started filling glasses. That pretty much summed up the vibe we got. Not sure if this is typical service down there or just an off night, but it was enough to make us decide we wouldn't come back to the speakeasy. Bottom line: If you're in the area, definitely check out Muss & Turner's for dinner--it's worth it. But I'd skip Eleanor's and save your time and money.

    I was at Eleanor's the night referenced in a recent 1-star review, seated nearby and close enough…read moreto hear what was going on. I'm leaving this because what I saw doesn't line up with that review at all. The group that was eventually asked to leave came in clearly intoxicated and immediately made another table uncomfortable. When they were told the table wasn't interested in being social, the intoxicated group sat down at a table directly across from them and continued making loud, inappropriate comments. The other table appeared visibly distressed and were clearly trying to keep to themselves. Staff initially tried to calm things down and keep everyone there. When the behavior continued and escalated, they made the right call and asked the disruptive group to leave. You could feel the room relax once they were gone. Unfortunately, situations like this happen sometimes when alcohol is involved. From where I was sitting, the staff handled a tense situation professionally and fairly. I've been going to Eleanor's for over a decade and have always found the staff to be kind, attentive, and respectful. This review doesn't reflect what I personally witnessed that night.

    We came here with a group of 12 to celebrate a 60th birthday, and overall the dinner experience was…read moregreat. The food was excellent, the drinks were on point, and our waitress did an awesome job handling such a large party. She stayed on top of everything and made sure we were taken care of all night. After dinner, we decided to check out the speakeasy through the freezer door--Eleanor's--and unfortunately, that's where the experience took a turn. The atmosphere itself was nice--semi-dark with a cool concept--but it could definitely lean more into a darker, more immersive speakeasy vibe. The bigger issue, though, was the service. It was night and day compared to upstairs. The waitress came across as rude and unwelcoming from the start. A few of us sat down in a small corner area with an L-shaped bench and some extra chairs we had to pull over ourselves. Obviously, with 12 people, there was no way we were all fitting there, yet she insisted she wouldn't take any drink orders until everyone was seated. That made no sense, especially since there was standing room and even a bar-height table available. To make matters worse, there was zero acknowledgment of the birthday--not even a simple "happy birthday," which felt like a missed opportunity given the occasion. When we asked about Fireball shots, the response was a blunt "um, no," followed by "you can have water," as she started filling glasses. That pretty much summed up the vibe we got. Not sure if this is typical service down there or just an off night, but it was enough to make us decide we wouldn't come back to the speakeasy. Bottom line: If you're in the area, definitely check out Muss & Turner's for dinner--it's worth it. But I'd skip Eleanor's and save your time and money.

I had been wanting to try their food so figured give it a try. I placed an order for Haitian patties, Oxtail, and a side salad. When I arrived, I reviewed the receipt and noticed the price of the oxtail increased from $38 to $42. The price on the website is not currently reflecting the prices being charged. I use the unkind app but it was not working so could not use it to pay. The hostess said it was an ongoing issue. Let's discuss the food. My coworker enjoyed her Haitian patties. She said the island slaw was really good. The side salad is the house salad. I asked for balsamic dressing when given the option. There was none on that salad. Sigh. The oxtail were good. They were very well seasoned and had a good flavor. The rice and beans were good but not enough. The rice could have been cooked a tad bit longer. It wasn't fine bur like 1 minute when have been perfect. I did not dine in but it looked nice inside. There was a decent amount of people there. It was clean and nicely decorated. I would eat here again but I didn't like the price difference in the oxtails or lack of salad dressing. I think dining there those issues could have been addressed but I was back at work.

I also ordered the sweet potato fries and a chocolate shake. The burger was good. The bun held up well, was soft, and the toppings combined well. However the patties were on the salty side. The sweet potato fries were some of the best I can remember having and the chocolate shake was pretty good. The cashier was friendly and my order came out quickly. I would recommend the visit and will be returning to try some of their other burger combinations. The location has a bar, high table seating, and is moderately noisy. My only complaint is for the price the burgers shouldn't be oversalted. Look forward to giving it another go and will update my review upon my return.

Thinking back, I believe that after an awkward silence, I just started giving my order. As I was speaking, another customer interrupted and asked for their water glasses. I can only assume because this guy forgot to give them the glasses when water was ordered. The register guy proceeded to roll his eyes in response to the question. I then resumed my order. We paid, and sat at the table. I went to the bar to order a couple of drinks. Two bartenders were present. One of the two was obviously very new to the job. She struggled to make simple drinks and moved behind the bar very slowly. The other bartender however was fast and efficient, but couldn't do the work of two people. It took 12 minutes to get 2 draft beers. The bar seats were 3/4 full. Busy, but not overwhelming if both bartenders had been working efficiently. I returned to the table, and went to the restroom to wash my hands. The sink had no hot water and no hand towels. No blower either. When I returned, our food was at the table minus the truffle fries I had ordered. At first I assumed that they would be coming with them shortly. A week later, I still haven't received them. I finally flagged down a food runner who said they would check on them. 8-10 minutes later, she returned asking if I had received them. I said no. She did offer to get them right now or remove them from my check. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to wait, so neither of those things happened. This was a disappointing experience. My burger was good, not great. If it weren't for the under trained, and what seemed to be an unhappy front of house staff, I might consider it again. I really don't see that happening any time soon.
