My wife and I had walked past this place many times but never stopped in. One evening, we were…read morecraving a good burger, and every other restaurant in town had a long wait. Then I remembered American Café, and I'm glad I did. From the moment we walked in, the service was phenomenal. The staff was friendly, attentive, and genuinely seemed to care about our experience. The burgers were superb--cooked perfectly, packed with flavor, and made with quality ingredients you could actually taste. The prices were reasonable, especially considering the quality of the food. It's not a fancy or upscale restaurant, but if you appreciate great food made right and served with a smile, this is the place to go. American Café definitely earned a new pair of regular customers. The next time I'm in the mood for a burger, I know exactly where I'm going.

But Micah was in the mood for a chicken sandwich, so as we were heading towards our destination we saw Cook Out and stopped to get him a quick bite to eat. For kiddos especially, this place is awesome. The have great combo packs, milkshakes, and aren't just limited to burgers and fries. They have quesadillas, corn dogs, burgers, chicken, etc. Needless to say, he was very pleased with his meal. He really likes this place. And I like the inexpensive prices and value.

They have their meat delivered every day from J.R. Smith meats in Nashville. This is a roadside Local Gem that is Drive- thru or you can walk up and order at the take out window. They do have some covered outdoor tables. It can get busy, but the line moves quickly. The staff are always friendly and you may see Karen herself in the kitchen. They offer Fish, Chicken, Chili Dogs, Fried Bolagna, Grilled Cheese, Sides, Shakes, Floats and Sweet Treats and it's actually very affordable. If you're in Smyna or near the Boro, stop in and get you some. To finish the review- If you order for outdoor dining, they will give you a number and bring your food to you when its ready. They are closed on Sundays and Mondays.

I've been meaning to try Chicago Express for some time now. Finally, I was able to pop in today…read more They have fast friendly service with a wide variety of foods to choose from. I ordered the Chicago style hotdog special, which came with french fries and a drink. I will say that this is definitively just like I would get back home in the Chicagoland area. The hot dog was served on a poppyseed bun, with relish, onions, mustard, tomato, and even had sports peppers. The food was served nice and hot. And everything was seasoned nicely. The ambience of the restaurant is very casual small and quaint. For the time of day that I went to the restaurant was not too full. During my next visit, I think I'll try the Gyro sandwich or perhaps the Italian beef. Hard to say, though cause they have other great options.

Whether you're building your own burger Frankenstein-style or diving into one of their signature stacks, you're getting a serious meal. The vibe is laid-back and loud in all the right ways. It's the kind of place where you can bring the family, catch the game, or just cure a craving with fries you'll definitely regret sharing. The staff keeps it moving without rushing you, and the bar's got a surprisingly strong selection of local and regional beer. Come hungry, leave full, maybe question your life choices--but in the best way. It's a burger joint with attitude, and Murfreesboro's better for it.

Oversalted food! The burger patty was overcooked, salty, and…read morecrumbly instead of served as a medium well. I got the buttermilk bacon for my burger and it should only be served as a side or appetizer. The half slice of bacon is breaded so it is over an inch thick and there were 4 pieces on the patty. There is no way this could fit in a normal sized mouth if you add any lettuce or other condiments. I asked for Brie and got one 1" slice. Definitely not what I expected for a $3 up charge. The sweet potato fries were inedible due to the salt they were doused with. I will, however, recommend the house fried chips with onion dip and it was a shame to have to leave it since there was so much of it. It probably would be great in place of mayo on a burger. I also observed 5-6 people wandering in and out of the back that weren't wearing uniforms but seemed to know everyone as they stood around chatting. Why??? Not very professional for food service. One young man in particular kept running his hand thru his long hair as he stood near the staff area for drinks and the pass. Ugh! There was also another guy with hair down to his waist that was pulled back but man!, that ponytail was swinging loose everywhere from the kitchen to the bar. Again, ugh! Neither of those would I want near where my food was being prepared. The menu is a fun looking and eclectic mess but we won't be back. I prefer a food be under-salted as one can always add more if needed and the hair completely turned me off.

I called back to let them know I heard them and not to worry about looking at the calendar and they said okay and hung up on me. Just wow. Clearly they do NOT want business.

Drove over 20 miles to get there. Walked up to look at the menu and order and the first thing I saw was "CASH ONLY." I'm fine with that but I wish the article would have mentioned it. It's 2020 - no reason with technology you can't take a card. I would say that if the card fees are prohibitive then just raise your prices, but when I looked at the menu and saw not a single hot dog below $10 then I just laughed it off and left. I bought a 6 pack of great Nathan's all beef jumbo dogs at Kroger for $2.87. Good luck but y'all have got to come back to reality and get in the century before you make a living at those rates taking only cash.
