No flavor at all not even salt potatoes only flavor salt I forgot a piece of sausage which tasted like sausage definitely not anything special but I wish I could play with just a flavor of food. That was absolutely the worst shrimp I've ever eaten in my entire life.

All other burgers wish they could be half as amazing as the Ruth burger. I'm amazed that Guy Fieri hasn't heard of this closely guarded secret deep in the backwoods of Louisiana. I first had one when I was about 16 and I dreamed about it until I was 25 and could go back for another. I've had burgers everywhere from Maine to Bahrain and nothing comes close to these juicy, heavenly, flavorful sandwiches. If you have the means you need to go there and buy two!
