Didn't even place an order. As soon as I pulled up to the drive thru, the cashier says " hold up, gimme a second. I just reversed. Checkers needs to check on their staff

Chili Dog
Chrisotpher L.

This was my first visit at this location and I must say the food could have been way better. I ordered a checker burger without cheese, and the ended up putting cheese on my sandwich anyways. I ordered a chili dog with grilled onions and the chili was some of the worst tasting fast food chili I have ever had. The best part about my visit was the strawberry shake and fries. The customer service as was decent, and the wait time to get my food was not long. The restaurant also looked decently cleaned and workers are wearing masks. Overall, it was okay if your looking for a cheap lunch or meal, but stick to the hamburgers and fries here.

Ordered a chill stop watermelon slushy. It taste like old rags. Like they just dip the cup in the mop water and fr it. Nasty

This place is nuuuuuuuuts, it is so good. A classic smash burger with a host of toppings, from the…read moretraditional to fried eggs and hot peppers - much more variety than a run of the mill hamburger joint. Servings of fries are enormous, a large literally comes in its own bag to accommodate it. Topped off with a huge menu of shakes, this place is an absolute treat. Best burger around, in my opinion. A somewhat odd location attached to a convenience store, but don't let that fool you.

Z Burger is back in Northeast! McDonald's and Five Guys - be warned (lol)!…read more Being a recent DC transplant to the area, I was pleased to find this outpost of the iconic DC area Burger joint walking distance from home. I was also happy to know they offered a turkey burger option! It's not Smashburger worthy - but it's a solid option among the burgers, hotdogs, chicken sandwiches, and cheesesteaks on offer. And then they closed. Literally. This summer they closed for a mild renovation - something about the floor and drainage. They said they'd reopen in a month. That was three months ago. Fast forward and they finally re-opened last week. Solid burger freshly cut and fried French fries and onion ring options are available. As well as hotdogs, chicken sandwiches, grilled cheese, and veggie burger as well as a 'legendary' plant based burger. I got my turkey burger and it was delish with Z sauce. So I'm definitely a fan. Prices are closer to $10 than $5 for a burger - but they are freshly prepared and fried to order, which helps the flavor (and price premium). The lobby area was mildly updated - they definitely put in that new floor. They cut part of the wall so it feels more open - but that also exposes the adjoining convenience store. There are literally 8 chairs and 4 tables all alongside the wall so this isn't primarily a dine in location - but it's nice there is a dine in option. Most folks are going to grab and go though - or utilize the myriad delivery options. Welcome back, Z Burger. I'll see you soon.

I've passed by Habit Burger so many times while going grocery shopping at Whole Foods right across…read morethe way, and I finally decided to give it a try. I'm glad I did because the burgers were really good! Very tasty, well-seasoned, and packed with flavor. I got a side of sweet potato fries, which were nice and crispy--definitely a good choice. I also really liked the little jalapeño and pepper bar where you can grab some extras to add to your burger. Their house drinks were surprisingly good too! I would definitely come back when I'm craving a quick burger. My only suggestion would be to add an extra patty if you're really hungry because the burgers aren't quite as big as something you'd get from Five Guys or, for anyone who remembers it, the old Fuddruckers lol. But nonetheless, everything was really good, flavorful, and satisfying. Definitely a spot I'd pick up from again!

Knowing that, I have to consciously limit my intake because it's a serious slippery slope and I don't want to end up being 400lbs :) Habit Burger & Grill burgers are delicious. I've been a couple of times and I've gotten the regular bacon cheeseburger first time out, and then I downloaded the app and received a free regular cheeseburger. Both were mouthwatering. Definitely on the same level in taste and quality as my all time favorite, "Shake Shack". The app is user friendly and deals pop up weekly! The location I visit is in Riverdale and it has a nice amount of seating inside and out. Service was fast and extremely friendly both times and the manager knew the regulars by name which was impressive. If you're ever in the mood for a great tasting burger, give Habit Burger a go.. you'll love it!

First, if I'm getting anyone a gift, it's from here. It's the most random trinkets but they're funny. I love a good laugh. The cards take the cake! I literally find the most hilarious or thoughtful cards. My future hubby doesn't like gifts, he's a man's man, so cards it is. I'm a giver so it's hard not to buy things for him but these cards are sweet and convey the sentiments of my heart. We aren't getting into it because everything is a must try. A local staple in Hyattsville, I highly recommend even if it's for their novelty shop or ice cream! Ambiance is casual! Come as you are! Cheers Yelpies!

I am on their email list (and yes I read most of my emails that are of interest to me) and noted they had an Oktoberfest kick off party happening this week on Thursday evening from 6pm -9pm in their outside patio, so decided to come here. We showed up at 6pm on the dot and the place outside was already packed with people. They were having a live Oktoberfest trio band play, so that was cool! A lot of people were in their Oktoberfest garb/outfits, which was adorable. The challenge was getting a beer and a non alcoholic drink for my mom. They had nothing NA for her and she ended up just having a glass of ice water. I got in the mobbed line and had a Kellerbier, which was brewed especially for Franklin's and Oktoberfest. They had an issue with their handheld payment device so that made the line longer. Beer was fine, but wished I could have gotten my mom a lemonade or iced tea. The other issue was the seating. We opted to sit over in the sandbox/kids area and the picnic tables didnt feel like the best use of space. The trio band was lovely and played some nice tunes including Edelweiss which is one of my favorite songs ever (yes I loved The Sound of Music and have watched this so many times as a kid with my mom) but it would have been nice to see the band more in the center of things, closer to the bar hut. They were serving up German sausages and huge pretzels but the line for beverages and food was so long that I didnt bother to purchase food. This was a great idea and I hope that the next one they do, they can iron out some of the wonky kinks. I'd come back again for an Oktoberfest for sure. My mom and I had a great time!

Somehow, I had only been to this place during the winter time, but it is a completely different vibe during the warmer months. The outdoor space is stunning, and everything just feels brighter and happier. The staff are really nice, the patrons are enjoying themselves, and they just have excellent food. My friend and I happen to come during this fashion show event so there were complimentary hors d'oeuvres for everybody present, but we still ordered delicious deviled eggs (I could've eaten a whole tray of them) and had some great cocktails. You know, for the first time ever, I paid attention to a bunch of board games that they have on a shelf. But based on the stuff that's on the shelf in front of them, I am not 100% sure that they are up for grabs, but it still looks cool. Anyone who is in this area should definitely pay them a visit. You won't regret it.

My wife and I were hungry and wanted to go somewhere in the neighborhood. We heard about His & Hers…read moreand decided to stop by. We walked in on a Saturday afternoon and it was completely empty. The cook was sitting at one of the tables and the waitress was behind the bar (they don't serve alcohol) hoping someone would come in. There is an upstairs and a downstairs. We did not go downstairs but I'm assuming there are plenty of seats like upstairs. We ordered the hangry breakfast, which came with French toast, eggs and potatoes, the salmon burger and the chicken & waffles. It's a good thing we ordered so much becaus the chicken and waffles only comes with 4 wingettes. We ordered water but were told they were out of ice. Instead my wife ordered a $4 CANNED SODA because that is the only thing they had cold. $4 for a can is insane by the way. Since we were the only ones in the establishment we expected the food to come quickly but that seemed to take 20-25 minutes as well. Our food eventually arrived. The French toast was good. Flavorful but small. Sandwhich bag slices of bread. The potatoes were clearly from the Walmart frozen foot section. The eggs were ok. My wife's waffle was cool however the chicken was BLAND and SEASONLESS. We didn't even finish them. For $18 I expected more. The salmon burger was by far the best thing there. A thick cut of salmon that was flavorful. We should have gotten two of those. The waitress was nice. The food is overpriced. I should have known when we walked in and the place was empty. Not sure how they stay open having brunch without alcohol but to each is own. One and done for me as a neighborhood guy. The food isn't great and the prices are high. No reason to return.

Don't go here - period. I went with my partner attempting to support a local business and have…read morebrunch - I wish I'd cooked at home. They don't have typical bacon or sausage because "the owners don't eat pork" which really sounds like something more appropriate for their house, and not their restaurant business on Rhode island ave. The "chicken sausage" was a shriveled up piece of chicken paste that they cooked in the microwave. I ordered scrambled eggs, and when they came out, they had that crust that scrambled eggs get when they sit out after being cooked. The grits were lumpy and outside of the cheese sauce they put on the top - had no flavor. The French toast tasted like milk eggs and burnt grill. And the pancakes, were very obviously pre made and microwaved. Additionally - the meal I ordered is listed to come with a bread, eggs, a side and a meat. I asked for bacon, and was told the owners don't eat pork. I asked for the chicken sausage.. 5 minutes later the server asked me if I wanted the sausage spicy or not. Then when she brought the bill, there was a $4 up charge for spicy sausage that she neither told me, nor was it on the menu. And to make matters worse - the sausages were not spicy and were actually just flat out nasty. This is a SAD excuse for a restaurant. I'm sad that I spent calories walking there and dollars eating there.

Total came out to approximately $40. What's hot - Menu. Pretty decent menu. There are vegan options, as well. That you can customize your burger, such as substituting a lettuce wrap for the bun, is also great. - Packaging. Aside from the packaging of the fries, which is explained below, the burgers were wrapped up well. They also labeled the wrappers on the outside, so we could tell which one was exactly which order. Helpful. Additionally, my mushroom burger was wrapped well in the lettuce and did not fall apart easily, which I really appreciated, because that's less of a mess. - Quality. The toppings to my burger- tomatoes, onions and lettuce were all fresh. The jalapeños were decently spicy and their spicy relish on their fiery fries are pretty good, as well. Good flavor. - Service. Our order was ready within the appropriate estimated time they gave us. What's not - Fries. Needs work. They're soft and soggy. To be fair, the spicy radish sauce on their fiery fries is pretty spicy and has a good flavor. However, the texture of their fries is a detractor. - Packaging. Their fries were not in a takeaway container. Instead, it was sandwiched between 2 cardboard bowl containers. Messy and another detractor. - Quality. Not the best, but not bad. I've had better. This is not the first place to come to mind when I think of good burgers. - Portions. Not enough to get us full, including the side of fries we ordered. - Price. Given the aforementioned, not good value for money, especially given that we were still hungry afterwards. Final Answer Willing to return, but not a first choice.

We three stopped by for our dinner. The place is neat and simple…read more We ordered and paid. We looked up the receipt and realized one of us ordered the similar to their signature- called elevation burger but it came with two patties while I ordered custom with one patty. So I immediately went to the cashier and told that I ordered that but wanted it in the signature- elevation burger instead of my custom which is exactly same as their elevation except 2 patties. The cashier stated she can't do that and I have to pay $4.23 for extra patty. While if I changed it to elevation burger and it's only $1 difference. I know they're able to adjust and change my order to elevation burger without any issue. But unfortunately the cashier refused. So rate for customer satisfaction is none but only can give 1 star. For food itself, 4 stars for fries and 5 stars for burgers. Result 3 stars.
