McDonald&#x27;s

If you're looking for a good Smash-style burger or a Memphis style pork sandwich, this Nashville…read moreborn restaurant is a good place to go. They use a custom blend of meat for the burgers and grind it fresh daily. They smoke their Pork, Turkey and Bologna for up to 18 hours over Hickory coals. They offer Burgers, Veggie Burger, Pulled Pork, Turkey Club, Bologna, Chicken Sandwich, Hot Dogs, Fries, Chili Fries, Handspun Milkshakes and Fresh squeezed Lemonade. My personal favorites are the Double Burger And The Pulled Pork sandwich that absolutely melts in your mouth. There is plenty of free parking at this location and they have a few outdoor picnic tables. You order at the counter and they give you a number then call your number when your food is ready and the food usually comes out quickly. They have an open style kitchen with bar seating right by the grill. Lastly-- Friday's ONLY --- You can get the " World Famous" Slugburger. It's a Depression Era stlye they used to make in the South back in the Great Depression days. It's interesting to say the least. It's deep fried ground Pork and Soy Meal with Pickles, chopped Onions and Yellow Mustard. It's worth a try if you're looking for something a little different and the History of it makes it kinda cool.

Honestly the best burger I've had in a while. The bread wasn't too sweet and the toppings were just…read moreright. I usually don't like pickles in mine but I decided I gotta try it the way they make it. Best pickles ever. I sat down for one second, looked around and there it was in front of me. It's moderately busy around lunch time because of the super quick cooking time. It was pretty close to a in n out burger but more humble and way more delicious. I definitely recommend! I just wanted something that won't disappoint me and the previous reviews were right. Don't miss out!

Once at the counter, it was fast and easy to place orders, customized to your preference, and then pay and find a seat. We chose to sit out on the covered deck that was sealed up to avoid the elements. It did rain lightly while we ate, so it was nice to be protected and cozy while still enjoying the outdoors. Food was brought to the table and we all agreed the chicken and various sides were delicious. Everything was seasoned well, and hot items were hot and cold items were cold. Counter staff and food runners were all friendly and efficient. Noise level was mild to moderate and temperature was doable after the rain shower. Will be glad to return when visiting Nashville again to repeat order the chicken and also try new menu side items.

The bathrooms were also an unexpected surprise. They were very clean and very well decorated for a fast food spot. As for the food, I ordered the crust burger and the joy nugs. The crust burger is unlike anything I've ever tried, and I mean that in the best way possible. It's like a grilled cheese hamburger, insanely tasty and crispy. The meat quality was A+. The nugs were good, but the hot honey sauce was better. Their crispy crinkle fries were also a good distraction between bites. The burger itself is worth returning for.

Very friendly staff at the counter and not very crowded, it was a bit on the early lunch side. Order at the counter and listen for your number. I went for the Cheeseburger (yes! to all the toppings!)

It's like a classic old time burger place. Thankfully they have napkin dispensers on each table. Fries were fine but between the burger and shake, I was pretty full already. Our younger guest had a grilled cheese, which also looked really good. So glad it's as good as I remembered it!

It's not much to look at from the street, same on the inside. In fact, parking is kind of a PITA too. But once you make it in and settle in, all is right with the world. The staff is friendly and eager to take your order. Food prep is quick and meals are brought to your table. One sticking point, however, was when I ordered a spicy Bloody Mary. The bartender informed me that the mix was pre-made so she couldn't make it spicy. A bit odd that she couldn't just add some Tabasco or muddle some jalapeño but alas... The food is really good. My breakfast burrito was HUGE, in fact (size and taste). And the tacos my friends had were also raved about. They do things right here. And the prices are reasonable to boot! If you're in Nashville and looking for someplace that feels like a hidden gem then give Redheaded Stranger a try!

I ordered the thigh/leg quarter piece with side of criss cut fries, side of 2 waffles, and dipped in the comeback sauce washed down with the sweet tea offered The chicken was fried perfectly, piping hot crunch on all corners seasoned well, tender in the middle, oddly letting it sit for some time you can taste all the oil that sits on the chicken when it is luke warm not its best taste, best to have it on site while it is piping hot, yes it is messy so be prepared to clean up a mess the waffles were small but piping hot, fluffy but slightly dense you can taste how dense after the second bite, add butter or syrup to force it down, again when piping hot delicious luke warm you can taste the inconsistencies the criss cut fries were a bonus to the meal, piping hot and crunchy on most parts pretty much dipped everything on that comeback sauce, I do recommend that sauce the bread pudding for me was sad upset, unless you get to the bottom your not gonna get to your bread pudding, it is layered with ice cream on top and meshed with the bread pudding, you have to pass the top layer to get to your bread pudding if you are in the area and want to sample Nashville's version fried chicken this would be a good interpretation, again best to have it onsite and immediately if you are getting this delivered your missing out, always have it piping hot food ***.5 good when piping how luke warm not so great service **** very helpful staff, friendly price $$ ambiance **** loud, open air, windy due to the fans going off, but the vibe was good in here

A perfectly cooked burger on a delicious bun. Plus the FRIES!!! OMG!!! They are as big as a table knife and thicker. But perfectly crispy on the outside ane soft on the inside. Seriously amazing! I love being able to easily mod the burger (I love adding grilled onions and bacon). And when I'm trying to eat less red meat, they have either the veggie burger or impossible burger. I have yet to try the chicken options, but may need to next time I drive by (and it's getting harder and harder to resist everytime I drive by, which is often!). The staff are also so kind and haven't gotten an order wrong yet! For someone with food sensitivities and allergies this is a big win :)
