The chicken strips were pretty amazing, the BBQ sauce reminded me of sonic drive-in.

But living abroad (or outside of Texas for that matter) we have to accept that Tex-mex/Mexican food is never going to be right

I've been going to this place forever. It's one of the places where my friends and I used to hang…read moreout quite a lot. Back in the days when it was still called 'Lucky Strike Original Diner'. We met to have breakfast, skip class or for late night snacks and burgers. Times have changed -- the portions became smaller and more pricey unfortunately. However, I still love to go to this place. Nowadays what you get is a medium sized burger, accompanied by a couple of fries (criss-cuts if you wish, which are pretty wicked). I usally stick to the Betty Boob Bacon burger and have hardly tired any other items on their board (except their American breakfast which is also small). The juicy BBB however is tasty, especially with extra bacon (a mandatory upgrade IMHO). So I can't judge most of the other food options on their board, but they got plenty. I recommend ordering an extra bowl of fries or some sort of starter as the menu won't be anywhere near American size meals. Also the shakes are delicious. Make sure to try those. My favorites are the Peanut Butter Shake and the mighty Snickers Shake which is not on the menue, but will be made upon request. They also offer season specific shakes. Cream soda (which I recall as Coke Float) is also a classic which goes well with a starter. The interior (and exterior) is reminiscent of an American Diner in the 50s and 60s. The atmosphere is unique. They even got a 'Wait to be seated sign" which is used when the place is packed. Nice! Years ago it used to be surrounded by grassland which was pretty cool. Staff is overall friendly and very helpful when it's decision making time. On my birthday I even got a tasty hot brownie with cream on the house, so that's what I call great customer service. This place is often packed with people and at times it can be busy, so remember to either make a reservation or bring some time. Before I forget: They have a Wednesday evening burger special. Buy one, get one free. But take my advice: You won't even get a seat without a reservation on Wednesday nights. In a nutshell: + OK food + Good milkshakes + Nice atmosphere + Ok staff - Small dishes - Small, bland breakfast - Pricey - Hard to get to with public transport - Could have more original food items from the US (like American MTN DEW on tab, fluffy pancakes, etc.) ===UPDATE Dec 2013=== We had breakfast at this place again after years of not having breakfast there. To cut right to the chase: It was highly disappointing. Yes, the waitress was nice and friendly and I always feel obliged to still tip decently when at least the service was acceptable... But the food was not up for it. I remember the portions to be way bigger. Instead after finishing that little bit of omelet that was tossed on a much too big plate I considered ordering a second menu item, which I didn't do in the end because the food was just too bad. The eggs were very greasy, and there was not much bacon on my bacon omelet. It came with some toast and hash browns which weren't well done but instead still had an aftertaste of raw potato. The price for the quality of the food and overall size was off the chart - not recommended for breakfast anymore.
