It was busy on a Friday evening around 6pm, but we didn't wait more than 10min. for our food. The dining rooms and bathrooms were clean and stocked. I ordered one of the deluxe single patty butter burgers with all the toppings and really enjoyed it. I also ordered a side of cheese curds with ranch that were yummy. Everything was hot and fresh! A good experience, I would come back!

The burgers were ok but didn't stand out and it reminds me of Shake Shack burgers where it's smashed except their buns are thicker and not as soft. I was hoping for delicious cheese curds but the breading was too thick and the cheese was not melty at all. Their custard style shakes were pretty good but it's like eating ice cream so what can be bad about that?

When asking for the sandwich to be replaced she became irate and began screaming at me and calling me honey. I went to my vehicle and got the receipt she asked for. I came back in and my daughter came in with her food right after me to show the order was wrong and the manager took it off the counter and threw it away. The manager continued to go back and forth yelling about being short staffed instead of either replacing the order or a refund. The manager decided to call the police on my family and I. I've had some difficult experiences at establishments but never have I had the police called on me and approached by an employee screaming because the restaurant made a simple mistake. The manager was not only rude to us but several customers and door dashers.

Service is quick, but you will wait because they don't fling everything together like Subway does. I had the roast beef sandwich, was very good and worth the wait. Was so good I've been to this restaurant twice in a week. BTW staff is friendly and engaging with customers read more

It starts right when you walk in the door and are happily greeted by the staff every time. The menu is simple and priced extremely well. The ingredients are always fresh and cooked to perfection. I'm a fan of the honey ham, it is, literally no joke, as sweet as candy. Try it sometime. The service is tip top, I feel treated and respected like a king. Food delivered directly to your table. Gone are the days of $19 subway footlong meals, what a joke. Here we have 8 in. sub, bag of chips, and a drink for $13 and 10x the experience. I feel genuine sadness over me when i take my last bites of my meals here. Well done, Firehouse.

But we just wanted lunch so it was fine! The menu is small but it was fine - we all found something we liked and when one of us didn't, the person behind the counter made her a grilled sandwich to order. I got a grilled chicken BLT. It was not a traditional chicken breast but something along the lines of a chipped chicken lunchmeat. Overall, it was "ok" - it tasted ok and it filled my stomach. The custom grilled sandwich was a tad soggy but tasted "ok" as did the meatball sub. No serious complaints but nothing exceptional either.

Certainly nothing fancy looking from the outside, across the street from a rundown outlet mall. There was one guy working the bar and the deli. He was the bartender, cook, waiter and seemingly most everything else. However he was very nice and accommodating for us. We ordered two different sandwiches. All said they were very good food. Not a bad place to get a quick bite if you don't mind simple food in a bare minimum bar type environment.

We started with the Santa Fe nachos and fried pickle chips. The nachos were already soggy when they arrived, and the pickles were cut far too thick and not crispy at all. The portion of sour cream was also too small for the size of the nachos. We didn't finish either appetizer. For my entrée, I ordered the Train Wreck Burger with onion rings. The name ended up being fitting, but not in a good way. The burger was bland, and the fried egg that was supposed to be part of it was barely noticeable. I only ate about half. My son's hot honey chicken sandwich was just average and overpriced, and the fries that came with it were clearly overcooked and not fresh. They were taken off the bill, which was appreciated, but didn't change the overall experience. The restaurant itself was clean, and there are plenty of seating options including booths, high tops, and a bar. The service was polite, but overall the experience felt very underwhelming. For the prices they charge, the food quality simply isn't there. We left disappointed and won't be returning.
