    The food was delicious and the owner sit in with us and told us a lil bit about herself. The ambiance was amazing too. If you are hungry and in Royse City stop by

    This a Old Fashion Burger with bacon and Everything on it with a root beer

    Okay, here' Charlie's Old Fashion Burgers isn't just a restaurant; it's a throwback to a simpler time, where burgers were juicy, sides were crispy, and satisfaction was guaranteed. My recent visit, which earned a near-perfect 9.8/10, was a testament to this classic appeal. Let's start with the supporting cast: the appetizers. The fried pickles were tangy and crunchy, a delightful contrast of textures that awakened the palate. The fried jalapenos packed a flavorful punch, delivering a satisfying heat that wasn't overwhelming. And the mozzarella sticks? Golden-brown perfection, with a gooey, cheesy center that stretched for miles. Each appetizer was a star in its own right, setting the stage for the main event. And what a main event it was! The Original Charlie's Burger was a masterpiece of simplicity. The patty, clearly made with quality ground beef, was cooked to juicy perfection. It was nestled in a soft, fresh bun and adorned with just the right amount of classic toppings. Every bite was a harmonious blend of flavors and textures - the savory beef, the crisp lettuce, the tangy pickles, and the creamy mayo. It was a burger that reminded me why this classic combination is so beloved. What elevates Charlie's above the average burger joint? It's the attention to detail. The freshness of the ingredients, the expert preparation, and the friendly, welcoming atmosphere all contribute to an exceptional dining experience. It's a place where you can taste the tradition in every bite. Final Verdict: Charlie's Old Fashion Burgers is a must-visit for anyone craving a truly great burger and classic American sides. The quality of the food, combined with the nostalgic ambiance, makes it a standout. That 9.8/10 rating? Well-deserved. The only thing keeping it from a perfect score is the fact that perfection is a high bar! I'll be back for another Original Charlie's (and maybe another round of those fried pickles) very soon.

    Was told 5 min wait to be seated but it was 20 min. Cobwebs in the lobby area. Meal served with salad so Meal got cold. Cowboy steak was slightly overcooked and I think we also got the burned scrapings from the pan...very disappointing first bite! Waitress was friendly but I'm not sure we'd come back.

    Got everything to go but besides the long wait, everything was great! Burgers with sweet potato fries and a red velvet cake malt for me and a chocolate/vanilla malt for my friend. I would definitely come back if I'm in the area

    Visited again. We love the food. Service was good the only thing I'd recommend as for as server is that it makes other diners uncomfortable if you go sit with a table of young ladies for extended time while diners are waiting on food. The server was male and he was plenty nice but sat with ladies for a lot of our time there. Just looks unprofessional. The decor is nice I sure hope they make it cause the food is on point --- they seem slow so that worries me.

    We just got here, first time.. more to come ....Burger On

    The food was really good. The burgers had great flavor, and the shark teeth appetizer was great.

    We had a terrific visit to this great cafe on Royce City's Main Street. It was a busy Sunday…read moremorning, but we were seated promptly in this bright, open, super clean family restaurant. The breakfast menu has lots of tasty options--standard cafe fare, with some Mexican breakfast options typical for the area. The service was great! This place is super efficient! They pump out a large quantity of fresh and tasty food impressively fast. Everything we had was hot, well prepared, and delicious! Pancakes are fluffy, the ham was huge, and the eggs on the chorizo skillet were done perfectly! Portions are large and the prices are terrific! If you are in the area, this place will not disappoint!

    We decided to check out this cute restaurant last night (after sitting at another restaurant across…read morethe street for almost 30 minutes without being spoken to or acknowledged). I'm absolutely terrible with names but we had the sweetest waitress, she greeted us with a big smile and took our drink order. Then she promptly took our food order after giving us several recommendations since we'd never been here before. My husband, son, and I all got different cheese burgers. I got the Grilled Cheese Cheeseburger and it was delicious! It comes on Texas Toast, two patties, cheese, and lots of delicious bacon. My son got the kids burger and added bacon to it, listen this 6 year old can be an extremely picky eater, he ate the entire burger and kept saying how good it was. (He's still talking about it today.) My husband ordered a side salad and it came with their homemade ranch (yum!). He also ordered the Fire Burger with no avocado. It was giant and juicy! He said the chipotle mayo was amazing! Everything was so good - the food, the waitress, the cooks, the atmosphere - we will absolutely be back soon!

Because of what happened at Smoke Sessions, we'll be finding a new BBQ spot. My husband stopped by today and walked into a nearly empty restaurant. He waited about five minutes for someone to acknowledge him. After calling out and still receiving no assistance, he considered leaving--but stayed because he knows how much I enjoy their food. While he was waiting, another customer walked in. Suddenly, a staff member appeared and immediately helped that customer, completely overlooking my husband--as if he wasn't even there. For context, my husband is 6'6", so he's not exactly easy to miss. When my husband spoke up and asked if she saw him waiting, she responded by saying she knew the other customer and his order, as if that justified ignoring him. It didn't. From our perspective, the only clear difference between the two customers was race--and that's deeply upsetting. We will not support a business where basic respect and fairness aren't extended to everyone. To make matters worse, she later offered his food for free, which he declined. We don't want free food--we expect to be treated with dignity and respect, just like any other customer. If someone isn't comfortable serving all people equally, then customer service is not the right place for them. It's really that simple.

    Do you live within 1 hour? Are you obsessed with pizza and live within 2 hours? Get in your car now…read moreand head to County Line. We were out this way (45 minutes from home) to pick up an order from a favorite boutique who just moved down the road. My 10yo and 8yo were going to DIE if I didn't feed them pizza immediately. God just happen to do his thing and placed a pizza place within eyesight. The house salad alone is worth the visit. The pizza is cooked on an open fire and has some of the freshest tasting ingredients this Mama has had in pizza in a long time. Every pie is offered in a "personal" size, but even the small salad was enough for two meals! If you need further proof, my autistic child ate his ENTIRE kids cheese pizza without a single complaint. Fun retail, full bar and space ship are added bonuses.

And that critique is aimed more at the flavors, the cook on all of our pizzas was perfect, the flavors just left a bit to be desired (especially the Margherita pizza.) One star off for this. The hostess was extremely nice, but our server was pretty timid and quiet so he was very hard to understand. He also seemed to be very forgetful, we asked him a couple questions about the menu that he didn't have answers for, refills were scarce, and he forgot to bring us plates. I do think he was new, so no stars off for this, just some notes to improve on! Finally the ambiance of this place was okay, but it was SO loud that we could hardly hear each other speak. I'm not sure if the building needs some acoustic treatment or if the seating is just crammed in too closely. Add this to fact that the manager did not want to open the top floor and would rather have people waiting (why not utilize all the space you have?) My only guess is that they didn't want to have more to clean up at the end of the day but it just seems... lazy. One star off for these two things together. It's fine, it's just not great, especially at the price.
