The name of the restaurant is wrong here on Yelp! The correct name is Shelly's Smash Burger…read more Staff were very friendly. Ingredients were all fresh. Prices very reasonable. It's not really a truck stop, but it is part of a convenience store at a Phillips 66 gas station. The only options for burgers in Waterloo near where we are, are either fast food or Denny's, Applebees, etc. It's a bit of a drive down Rte 3 to Red Bud, but if you want a very good burger at a reasonable price it's worth making the trip.

I went out on a limb trusting some other Yelp reviews of this place and decided to stop on our way…read moreback from the wine trails in Southern Illinois. We had a hard time ordering. It was a little bit confusing on if we went to the main checkout or the one in the corner, which is kind of like a weird restaurant/ gambling area. Anyway, after we figure out what we wanted we waited for the order and ate it on the drive home. It did not package well, even from the store to the car which was like a 10-second walk. The fries were mushy and gross, and I feel like the burger was completely underwhelming. I think steak 'n shake has some of the best burgers. If we were going to stop somewhere local we probably should have done that. That. There's nothing to write home about and they offer a discount on some ice cream that's hand scooped, my partner got some of that and tried it and it was completely freezer burnt. So needless to say we won't be back, but it was I guess. Guess interesting to check out a local spot that I've been curious about. 3/10 won't try again and wouldn't recommend.

First off, I was too mad at the time to even review the, "Burger Den," which you should all know,…read moreit's Denny's, off cave springs that runs this, burger joint. The food was so late in arriving, that it was cold and unappetizing. No seasoning or anything..didn't even asked how you want your burger cooked.. In other words, I couldn't eat the food, and given how much I spent, I was literally sick. After a little investigating online, I quickly was able to figure out, by the address of Denny's, that there are three or more businesses tied to the same address. So, for you night owls, or those working graveyard shifts..you're better off ordering McDonald's or Taco Bell, as they stay open late. I'm including pictures of my receipt. Please do not order from Denny's unless you plan to eat at the restaurant:(

In addition to the great weather, the Monday special also helped attract the large crowd. The Monday special is, Cheeseburger & Fries for $7. That is a super deal. It comes with onion, lettuce and pickles. The fries were super crispy. I love it when you bite into a fry and hear that crunch. All you gotta do is order a craft beer on draft and you've got a meal. They also have a great special on, Taco Tuesday. Grafton Pub, never disappoints me.

Really cool spot with good food. Their burgers are like smash burgers - very greasy to be honest…read morehaha but it was really good! Their fries are cooked in beef tallow and were super crispy and delish. Kids loved eating here Experience: You order at the front and food will be brought out to you. They will clean up your spot for you. The restaurant itself is 90s themed - lots of toys around to look at and play ISpy with the kids. They also have some older (dare I say vintage) tv shows playing in some monitors around the seating area.

My go-to spot on Main Street in Edwardsville for a quick bite is Sneakys. It all started as a food…read moretruck, but now it's a cozy little restaurant that used to be a brewery. They've recently upgraded to a full kitchen, so they can now whip up some delicious food. There's even a patio area outside where you can enjoy your meal on a nice day. I highly recommend trying their Borracho Tots. They're topped with queso, bacon, fresh jalapeno, and a fried egg. The queso is creamy and delicious, and the bacon adds a nice crunch. The jalapeno is spicy, but not too much, and the fried egg is perfectly cooked. I was so impressed with these tots that I'm still thinking about them! Sneakys also has a great selection of beers on tap, which is always rotating. They also have a wide variety of other drinks, so there's something for everyone. The staff is top-notch and will go out of their way to make sure you have a great time. Jason, Dany, Rainey and Brian are especially friendly and helpful, and if you get to chat with Tyler, one of the owners, you'll definitely get a few laughs and some fun facts! I love Sneakys whenever I get a chance to go. It's a great place to grab a quick bite and enjoy some delicious food and drinks.

Stacked is my go-to for quick, easy, and always good! Kim waited on us and she has been there…read moreforever, she is great, always love her energy! For the first time in forever we got there during happy hour so what do we do? Save money? No, we order two appetizers instead of one! We always get the wings, and we got fried pickles that were part of the $5 appetizer choices, you can choose from several and alcohol specials, too. I always do build your own, you fill out the sheet from a pad on the table choosing your ingredients by category. I usually get the beef but last couple times I have ordered chicken but got similar toppings, Spinach, tomato, chipotle aioli, and fried jalapenos on toasted sourdough. Love it! For a small upcharge you can get a salad as a side, I like to do that because I can steal a few of the delicious fries from my companions. The salad is generous, spring mix, red onion, tomato, croutons. It comes with shaved parmesan, but I ask them to leave that off. The champagne vinaigrette is perfect. This is my favorite burger place, but I like that I can get a great chicken sandwich!
