I have been going to Boll Weevil for my entire life. If you want a good burger for a very reasonable price, Boll Weevil is the place to go. They offer a few other items, but I only go there for their burgers. read more

I really wanted to enjoy my first visit there after it reopened. But alas we had problems. Our server was great and friendly . My complaint? From the time we ordered our two burgers, a hotdog and basket of fries until we got our food was 40 minutes. It was a Tuesday night and busy but not packed. My son's food was cold when it arrived. All in all a disappointment. read more

This is absolutely the worst experience ever!! I will never be coming back here again! We have brought 15 people here over an hour ago and are just now receiving drinks. No one gave us menus, or helped us get enough tables together to accommodate our group and we had to do it ourselves after waiting 30 min and no one acknowledging our request for more chairs or tables. I am extremely disappointed and will never return!!!!!!! Not to mention on top of all of this we had reservations!!!! Our children are starving and our server cant even get our drink order correct and has mixed up multiple drinks already! read more

We went here because it was right around our apartment complex. The first time we came here the food was okay. Disappointed so we didn't come till 5 months later again to see if the food got better and it was. Burgers was fresh and everything was definitely much much better than the last time. read more

It seems like this place is going down hill. The cleanliness and service is a bit questionable. The food is inconsistent at best. It's hard to keep frequenting a place that is just missing the mark. It needs to be revamped and cleaned up a bit. read more

The burgers are really good! I got the double cheese burger and it was extreme juicy. Everyone is nice and great customer service

Really good burger place. The food is good, the restaurant is nice and usually not too crowded, which allows for a nice meal. Waiters are usually very good and attentive but occasionally I get a bad waiter which messes up the dining experience for me personally. All-in-all its a good place and they have great burgers and generally friendly staff. read more

We here for dinner tonight! Food was excellent!! Portions are pretty generous and our waitress was very helpful

I came here with my friend last night and I was slightly disappointed. To start this review off positively, the food here is absolutely fantastic! I got the 2 for $20 with the mozzarella triangles (which were wonderful) as the appetizer and the fried shrimp and fries which were surprisingly filling. What I am displeased by is the service. The waitress that was supposed to be assigned to our table (young brunette woman) seldomly came back to check on how we were doing so I had to bother another waitress who just happened to pass by more often to check on her tables. I wouldn't say I would never come here again but I can say is they need to work on their timeliness. read more

First and last time coming here they messed up my burger and it caused a domino effect at this point I'm not hungry and they still charged me for the burger when I obviously didn't eat it tip when the persons food you mess up is the one paying the bill maybe get it right and you would have been tipped very well if I could I would give this place no stars read more

Solid place, what you would expect of a Boll Weevil restaurant. Nice people, good burgers.

Was in there a few nights ago within less than a minute the waitress was at my table asking me what I wanted to drink and handing me a menu came back with the tray they give you which I love pickles. Took my order and didn't have to wait long at all for my food... The waitress was fast and friendly even gave me insight to what I wanted to order since I was having a hard time picking. She even gave me a new thing of pickles and a to go cup when I was ready to go:) read more

This is the place to go for a real burger. I always get a 1lb bacon avacado burger and onion rings. Love this place!!!

I was in tonight with my family and we received very bad service from our waitress she would walk right past us like we did not even existed. The other waitresses we're helping and were very nice our waitress could not even give us plates for appetizers we had to eat our food on napkins I had to go up and get my own carry out box ... it is very sad that one person could ruin our dinner to the point that we will not be going back I am very disappointed by the service we received . read more

All I can say is DISGUSTING! This place is filthy, waitresses are not super friendly, the cooks stare out into the restaurant -"at you in an uncomfortable manner. I went there tonight with my boyfriends family of 8 (not by my choice) and I said to myself "I'll take one for the team" since I already have had a bad experience years ago. So everyone ordered and I decided to get a side Caesar salad with no tomato - well the waitress was bringing our salads and noticed that my salad had tomato in it and she then proceeded to stick her fingers into my salad and took it out and said "here you go". My jaw dropped! I couldn't believe that this women stuck her fingers (with no gloves) into my salad!!! REALLY?! So I place it to the side and kindly said no thank you. She then said I'll make you another one - I kindly decline and she comes back with the same salad tossed around. Really? They did not make me a fresh one she also didn't offer to take it off the bill. She also brought 2 plates of nachos for his family members- one of the orders their chips were over cooked and the other one was under cooked. Needless to say, I WILL NEVER go back to this place! read more

Love all the ladies who work here. The food is your standard burger and fry joint. Perfect place for team parties or a family dinner!

The food is good, I get the 1/2lb with bacon. Although on the huge half pound burger, there's only one little slice of cheese sitting on a patty twice its size, and only 2 pieces of bacon. The service is okay, although they arent very attentive and a lot of times I've been there, there's some sort of kids sports team running around and yelling while throwing food at eachother. Decent to come to once in a while. read more

What a miserable place! Food is not even mediocre, overpriced and staff is rude. I would highly recommend going to one of the neighboring BBQ places if you want decent food and not be yelled at by a restaurant owner! Boll Weevil Lakeside, no thanks! read more

My husband and I and several of our friends are regulars at this Boll Weevil location! We usually come on Sunday's after church, but have come by some weekday evenings too. We enjoy the 'local flavor' of the decor, and find it a very 'home-style' atmosphere where we can relax and watch Indy racing, or football on one of the many flat screen t.v.'s they have. We come back for the food! We LOVE the burgers and we each have our favorite. They are always cooked to order and are juicy and hot! Onion rings are crispy, yummy and beer battered, fries are always hot and fresh. The corn fritters are a delicious alternative to fries too. There are other good items on the menu, but we come back for the beef! We are always greeted and served with a smile, have great service and conversation with the staff, and they keep the iced tea coming when the glass is half full. The manager Bridget knows us by name and makes sure we have a great meal each time we come! In short we give this place a double thumbs up!!! read more

We LOVE this place. Service is wonderful and food is always great. Nachos.....yummy

First off ive been to this location bout 10 times, I have zero complaints about the food. This review is about the condition of your restaurant. Im not saying do a total remodel but every bench in this location has tape covering holes, I saw wires coming out of the wall exposed towards the ceiling and what really got me was the fact that I could actually smell the dirty old carpet. Like I said I have zero complaints about the food and you are closer to me then the Santee location but until a lil remodel goes down I will be driving the extra 10-15 minutes to go to the Santee location. read more

I stopped by here after going to Past and Present to pick up an item from an auction. I'm not from the area and had a 2 and a half hour drive back home, so I wanted some lunch before I headed home. I recalled seeing this place the last time I was in the area for the same thing, so I thought I would give it a shot. Upon entering at around shortly after 1pm, it wasn't crowded. I had trouble deciding on just a basic half pound steer burger, or the A1Wonderful burger. The server was polite, she's been there for many years and suggested the A1Wonderful. Not holding back, I went big with the 1/2 pounder! I'm glad she did suggest it, that burger was absolutely awesome. It was messy and I ended up having to finish it with a fork, but it was great. 3 slices of pepperjack, american and chedder cheese with a green chile, A1 sauce and sour cream. I loved the condiment tray that allows you to customize the rest of your burger exactly how you want...which with me means extra pickles and a few on the side. The fries were also very delicious, cooked perfectly. The burger was so hot, I actually had to let it sit a minute to be able to hold it. The one hiccup I had was that my glass was almost out of my drink before I had finished, I like my glass to be kept full, but the server had offered to refill my glass as she picked up my mostly empty plate. She obliged me with a to go cup which kept my thirst at bay for my drive home. I'm glad I tried this place and being that I seem to always get something from that nearby business every so often, I think I'll make this my regular stop before I jump back on the freeway. The atmosphere is dated, but I don't mind that, it's like an old fashioned burger joint from the 70's/80's. I give this Restaurant The Pulp Fiction burger award. In the words of Jules: "MMMMM! This IS a tasty burger!" read more

we stopped by on 01-08-2014 at about 6 pm. Not too busy with plenty of tables available.We sat ourself and a waitress stopped by and cleared the table from the previous guests. we sat for over 15 min with no one taking our drink order or asking us if we had been helped. We finally plagged down a passing waitress and asked for a server. After 5 min, we got up and walked out of the store. I will never return to support this business again. read more

Oreo shake had lots of cookie pieces in it, yum! I'm kind of a pain, so asked for a garlic butter bacon burger, but with a veggie patty and a different kind of cheese, no eye rolls or hesitation at all which I appreciate, because I know I'm annoying. My 9 year old had the sriracha bacon pretzel burger, we both rate it a 10+, not overwhelmingly spicy. Dee dee was our server and she was great. Thanks! read more

The service was great and WOW the corn nuggets, you have to get the corn nuggets. They are not on the menu just ask for them.

We go to Boll Weevil quite often. It's usually a Wednesday and lately we have been getting the same waitress. Unfortunately she isn't a good waitress. She seems to be so busy doing her "closing duties" that she forgets about her tables. Multiple trips there we have had her and always have to ask the other waitress for refills or for something else we may need. It's not even busy at the time we are there. This last trip We have decided that next time we will ask for a different waitress. We gave her a few chances in hopes that maybe she just had a bad night but so far each time brought us the same experience. It bums me out because its so convenient and the good is good. read more

Great food, never disappointed however the place could use a deep cleaning and smiling waitresses.

Actually, I felt sorry for the staff...there was a 20+ group w/lots of kids, another group of 9 w/unruly kids, and an employee hadn't shown up. BUT the staff that was there did their very best to keep everyone happy...with NO bussing! I'm not a meat eater, but the onion rings are the best I've ever had...that's why I love this place! All of this happened between noon and two. I'll be back...but maybe midweek! I just want the big groups to tip well...these girls were rock stars! read more

Thank you for hosting the fund raiser for the Ellis family. We really appreciate the support. It has been a hard time and to see the community come together like that was wonderful and the food was great too. We will be coming back. and thankyou to your staff and a huge shout out to all of your cooks !!! read more

The quality of the fare at the Lakeside location has been going downhill for a couple of years. I'm a caregiver and one of the places the old gent I take care of likes to go is out for a hamburger. Tonight he wanted a Boll Weevil hamburger, but didn't feel up to going out. So, I thought I'd order a to-go order. It took 6 calls to get my order taken. I was told it would be ready in 15 minutes. I arrived in 15 minutes, and paid for my order. 10 minutes later, I was still waiting, and had to run down a waitress to have them check on my order. While they got the order correct, the burgers and fries were both soggy, like they'd been waiting and reheated. I'll never make that mistake again. I was charged several dollars over the stated price, and the service was SO bad, we'll probably never eat there again. read more

Great Burgers.... Use the coupon out of the pennysaver all the time....

I came in with my family at the same time another group did as well and they were served and gone before my order was taken an hour and forty five minutes later. Our waitress would take three drink orders and then run away without taking the other half of my groups drink order. We went through three refills before the lady would stand still enough to get out good order and we still waited for the lunch rush that came in after us to leave before being served. I'm embarrassed for brining my family to a place where the service is so slow and disorganized and wouldn't take the responsibility for their lack of attention to customers by putting the blame on other parties. There was also a stench so bad we were ready to get up and walk out at that point, even my three year old son was feeling sick from it. Taking the drinks off our bill is not a consultation for neglect. Get it together boll weevil. read more

Friday night crazy and the service was even better than mid-week. Bacon cheeseburger special. Onion rings hot and crispy. Sampled husband's chocolate milkshake. ..Super good. read more

NOT GOOD! Burger sooo greasy and no flavor. This is not the Boll Weevil I remember.

Get the coupon in the penny saver. Love the burgers and the frings. Glad to have this back.

Worst service ever. Place was not busy , we ordered our food and waited over 40 minutes. In the meantime we saw at least 3 other groups come in and order and receive their food before us. In one case they completely finished their meal before we received our food. No explanation was given and the bill was not discounted at all. Will never return read more

I just ordered over $40 worth of food from Lakeside Boll Weevil! I have NEVER had an issue before & I am VERY DISAPPOINTED! The nachos were soggy & stale chips, wing dings over cooked, french fries under cooked & mushroom burger had no flavor! Plus, I tried to order a wing ding basket & a chicken strip basket! I was told that they are the exact same thing! WRONG! I hope that things change cause as of now my family & I will NOT BE RETURNING ANYTIME SOON! read more

I tried to call for a take-out order but the phone kept going to a message that didn't even say it was Boil Weevil, just "We can't take your call right now". I decided to go there and order. It was not crowded but I sat and waited and no one looked me or spoke to me. The few people that were there appeared to be looking for someone to take their orders. There were 2 wait persons that were moving very slowly and one was just visiting with someone. Love the burgers but today at least they had no service. read more

My wife and I are pretty regular at the Lakeside Location. Always good food and good Service. Kelly is by far our favorite, always very on top of it. Will be going there tonight! read more

We love Boll Weevil in lakeside. The burgers there are fantastic. The atmosphere is simple but nice, it is a burger joint. They do have big screen tv's to watch sports on. When we have guests from out of town, we take them to Boll Weevil's and they love it also. The wait staff are friendly and attentive. If you are in Lakeside, stop and get a great burger. read more
