Get off the exit (64) and resist the urge to stop at the Shoney's or the McD's or the BK. I know…read moreyou're tired and hungry and have to pee. You've been driving so long you're not even sure what state you are in, or what day it is, bless your heart. But hang in there, drive about a mile from the exit, hang a left and a right (let Waze guide you) and find your way to 1118 State. You'll swear you've stepped back in time, and that you're on old rt 66. Park yourself and walk up to the window. The locals will be lined up, and they don't mind if you furriners ain't from around these parts. The friendly ladies will greet you, call you sugar and baby, whip you up a milkshake and a cheeseburger dee-luxe in no time flat. No one's asking how you want it cooked - they cook it the way they have been cooking it forever - and it'll be pretty darn near the most perfect cheeseburger you can remember having. The milkshakes are, well, they should be mandatory. Point being, get one. They are rich and thick and made with real ice cream (of course). Don't come here looking for a salad, but they do have grilled cheese, fries, fried mushrooms and a few other non-meat options for you fat vegetarians. Everything here is so relaxin and tasty that you might have almost forgotten that you have to pee. There _is_ a bathroom here but this furriner recommends you hold it just a lick longer unless you're super into roughing it. Maybe stop at the McD's or BK on the way back to I-10 to take care of that bidness, bless your heart.

1) this place is NOT a drive-in. It used to be a long time ago…read more 2) outside seating only...and the picnic tables are filthy and decaying. The staff clearly NEVER bother to wipe them off. Birds and stray cats are assigned that duty. 3) the food is NOT fresh. This is a fast food burger joint and everything is clearly kept in the freezer. 4) not a stop for anyone who cares about what they put in their body. Aside from the poor food options, the ice cream and drinks are all filled with fake ingredients. 5) The staff is friendly, but the service is gawd-awful S-L-O-W.... Gas stations on the interstate have MUCH better offerings....

not really impressed. my car broke down after eating here and i had to literally beg them not to…read moretow me. and even then, i had no reassurance that they would not. prices: completely overpriced for the little food you get, and the poor quality. food: came for taco tuesday and the carne asada was so dry, it tasted like ground beef. the sauce was reminiscent of thick orange salsa, mild and underwhelming. the brussels were dry and bland, and tasted like old grease. drinks: my friend's tom collins was served in a rocks glass. my bloody mary served in a martini glass. and then when i got a martini, it was half empty... bartenders and manager didn't know anything about the bar menu. service: kinda rude, snooty. felt less like a customer and more like a bother.

It took 40 minutes to get a double hamburger. That is all they would let you get was a hamburger…read more They overcharged me and when this was brought to there attention the cashier didn't know what to do. I order one hamburger and they never said the price. They just asked for my card, rang up the card for two hamburgers. It was difficult to get the refund. Finally "taco" (name as cashier) said here is your money. When I again pointed out her error of the refund amount she left upset. She returned slapped the correct amount down and left without a sorry the whole entire time. That is not good customer service when you screw up

First time here I tried the Scottdog, due all the hype about it and the "1942" recipe chili on it…read more There was NOTHING special about. The hotdog on it was the cheapest of cheap money could buy. The chili on it was nothing more than ground beef with chili powder and tomato sauce and their was hardly any on it. They could probably sell these for a dollar and still make profit off of them. Today I tried to give them another chance. This time I ordered a Cajan burger. The menu said that it had cheddar in it. It did not, it came with a slice of American cheese. It came on a cheap bun that was soggy just minutes after starting to eat it. It also came with one small tomato and brown lettuce neither one seeming fresh. The patty tasted ok and seasoned. I will be not be eating here again.

Ordered the half shrimp / half fish basket from Caribbean Ice online and added onion rings. The…read moreorder was scheduled for pickup at 5:00 PM, but when we got there, the place was packed. They were clearly slammed, so we didn't get our food until about 5:20. Not a huge deal, just something to know if you're going during the dinner rush. Got home and realized they gave us fries instead of onion rings. A little disappointing, but thankfully the food itself made up for it. The shrimp and fish were both fried just right -- crispy, not greasy, and full of flavor. The homemade tartar sauce was the real standout. You can tell it's made in-house, and it paired great with everything. All in all, the food was solid even with the mix-up. We'll definitely be back, just maybe a little earlier next time.

We eat here about once a month, and I make it a personal mission to try something new every time…read more The menu looks like it's been updated recently, which keeps things interesting. The food is always fresh and flavorful, definitely a win. The restaurant is consistently clean, and we're usually seated quickly (which already earns bonus points in my book). Portion sizes are just right, we leave full but still manage to have a few bites left for a late-night snack. The beer selection is always rotating, so it's fun to switch things up and try a new brew now and then. My only suggestion? Ice those glasses! Draft beer is great, but an ice-cold one? That's next-level. Service is solid, and the staff is always friendly and welcoming. And if you're going, get the tacos and fried green beans They never miss.

My son and I love coming here because the food is usually good and we come often like once a week…read morebut the last 2 times we've come sadly the burger was not good! The meat was different or just off! Not the usual! No flavor, bland with little seasoning and so dry I could barely swallow it so it'll be a while before I go back. My son said his shrimp poorboy was good! The place needs an uplift like something cheerful and not dreary. Maybe background music ‍ just something! The fries are still good but the service takes a little longer since it's all cooked as ordered so make sure you aren't in a hurry! I'm not sure when I'll give it another try! Maybe I'll just order a poorboy instead of a burger!

I was disappointed by this place. I'm giving it a 3/5 because my boyfriend liked it more than I…read moredid. I've been before and remember loving it, but this just wasn't the vibe. The nice restaurant ambiance is fantastic. Clean. Well decorated. However, the drinks were subpar. (I mean, worst old fashioned I've ever had. The lemon drop martini was just ok.) Our waitress seemed to rush us and didn't take our complaints serious when we mentioned that the drinks were watered down. I got the shrimp and grits. To me, they tasted burned. But maybe that's the French style? It wasn't creamy like I am used to. So, I'll give them the benefit of the doubt there. By BF got the fried catfish. It was good. And we got the fried alligator, the highlight of the meal!! The breading was actually well seasoned and tasted great.
