Hands down the best local burger I've had in McDonough! Golden Grill serves up that classic,…read moreno-fuss burger flavor that takes you straight back to an old-school diner but better. The burger was seasoned perfectly, juicy, and cooked just right. GG's sauce? A game changer. Tangy, savory, and just the right kick it ties the whole thing together. The fries were golden and crispy perfection, and the wings? Crunchy outside, flavorful inside, with just the right amount of heat and seasoning. It's clear they care about their food and their customers. If you see the Golden Grill truck, don't pass it up this is comfort food done right. Service was quick and efficient.

**This is for their second food truck located in the BP gas station parking lot off exit-201**…read more My notes on this place are on the picky side, on the boarder of personal tastes...because they are putting in the effort of kicking out some good food. Everything that came out was freshly fried and made with well maintained toppings/ingredients. So no complaints at all there. Burgers-My only note would be to season the meat with some burger seasoning once it's on the flat top. The bun is perfect, the veg is cold, the sauces are saucy and you take a bit of it all looking for the juicy flavorful combo but the meat just misses that mark. It doesn't need much...just a little shake of seasoning to round it all out. Mozza sticks and mac&cheese bits...have no notes, they were fried to order and came out screamin' hot...dipped in GGs sauce or the White Sauce was perfect. Sauces- GG sauce is a mayo, sriracha and sweet chili sauce mix...there may be other things in it too, but those are the top 3. White Sauce is their take on an Alabama white sauce...but this one is less vinegar and more creamy because of the mayo. Little bit of heat, but not what I would call spicy. I-75 Loaded fries...were loaded up! How the fries managed to stay crispy for as long as they did-with all the cheese and sauce defies logic. The jalapeños make this dish on the hotter side, so if you don't like heat...you should order it without them-because they don't skimp on them. Honestly this could have done without the hot Cheetos-they didn't really add to it other than color and they got mushy quick. We also got the beefy/steak rice bowl, but it was for my husband's meal prep the next day. It wouldn't be fair to review based on him eating it a day later...so I'm going to leave that review out. We did see several people ordering it while we waited...so I'm thinking it's a favorite. It's a food truck-not fast food so we ended up waiting about 20 minutes for our order. The crew working it were all nice and our food was well packaged so we suffered zero losses. We will be stopping by and trying all their chicken options for our next round!

We decided on a single patty smashburger with mayo, tomatoes, lettuce, pickles and mustard. We added aside order of amazing onion rings. Then as another meal we ordered the Loaded Smash Fries. OMG... these were amazing too! They start with crinkle cut fries with 2 hamburger patties, grilled onions, pickles, cheese and there special sauce! This was a meal within its self. There's so many options to add on like grilled jalapeños. Which we did but on the side for one of us. If you are ever in Jackson, GA. Stop in for the old fashion homemade hamburger and hotdogs style meal with great prices and huge portions. Oh yeah... the Ice cream and shakes... can't forget them!

We wanted a convenient & decent meal so after being assured it would be a 10-15 minute wait, we ordered to-go via phone while driving back from Atlanta. We were there in 12 minutes and unfortunately had to wait an additional 30+ minutes (which feels like 3 hours when you have a hungry toddler sitting in the car waiting) before our food was ready for Pick-up. Definitely would've chosen something more convenient if we had known it would take 3 times longer than originally quoted. In terms of the food itself, the seasoned veggies were good as were the sweet potato fries. Burger was meh according to my husband, but I found the tacos to be a good value for the money. When we were ordering over the phone, they gave us options of sides, but never let us know about an upcharge, of course would be happy to pay. We were just surprised seeing it on the bill when none had been mentioned... The staff seemed fine though there were no updates about our order after they took our payment (extra 3% for credit card charge) until the food was finally ready. The facility itself seems nice.

The inside was interesting. I felt like we were eating at a Quentin Tarantino movie set. In order to get to the restaurant several homeless people were out in front.

I was very sad because I love homemade onion rings, but these were just not it. Inside the restaurant was kind of dirty. Not many clean tables. We sat at a table where I had to clean half of the table and there were hamburger sticks (the thing that goes in the middle of a hamburger to hold it all together, on the other side of the table.

Recently though one of my friends mentioned LR Burger and I knew I needed to check it out. It took me a year to get there but I am so glad I took the leap and decided to try it. The first time we went I "chickened" out and got the Buffalo mother clucker sandwich which was "wowza!" So stinking good I had dreams about it which made me extra sure their burgers would be amazing. I saw the SouthPaw a double patty with blue cheese sauce tomato, & lettuce on the menu the next time and it was like pure kismet I knew that was my burger. I ordered it and what do you know it was phenomenal I mean pure bliss to partake in! There is something for everyone my very picky kiddo loved the Oklahoma and couldn't stop talking about how delish it was! Every single time I am remotely in the Monroe area (which is every day twice a day) I have to talk myself out of going to get one. So good. 10/10. My top burger in all 50 states so far.
