    Let's start with the positives. The staff here are actually really friendly and served with a smile! The 2 burgers for $3 are great for the wallet. The kids loved the toys and are entertained by them while we enjoyed a peaceful dinner. The burgers... Who stole half the pattie and left a poor man's portion behind? Nothing I hate more in a burger than stingy meats! Granted I bought the basic burger but that doesn't mean I wanted bread only! The last straw that broke the camelback was the absolutely disgusting toilet! Eww... I don't even want to go into details. But it says a lot about the management here.

    Coffee is good and milkshakes are good. Food is a bit greasy. We got breakfast skillets and they were disappointing. We waited a long time for them to come and there were not that many customers here. The country skillet - biscuits undercooked. The California skillet included nothing California except the avocado. The skillet was not even half full. I was brought toast with no butter. Disappointing dining experience.

    Dirty floor beside the table.

    Food wasn't bad, but we waited literally over an hour for 4 small burgers. Not a single smile or "welcome" or anything. Just grumpy, careless, slow workers. No manager around. Restaurant was also very dirty, floors hadn't been cleaned in god knows how long. Again not terrible, but if you arrive at 5, expect to leave around 8.

    I read the reviews after I had been seated and ordered my food. All I can say is the restaurant was horrid. The manager acknowledged us right away and got us seated but according to the young lady who served us never notified her we were there. I'm not sure how she could have missed it as there were only three other tables with another server on the floor. Our service was quick and pleasant once we were approached. We ordered two chocolate malts and one was rancid. Even the smell was obvious when comparing the two. The fries were warm, one burger was hot while two were warm. The cottage cheese was ok and the pinapple was warm. The malt was removed from the bill and we left. We often make a 1:00 am Steak and Shake burger run to Gurnee Mills so I would like to think I have a bit of experience with their food. I would recommend passing this one on by.

    Seriously? 30 min wait in a drive through? I watched over 10 cars pull in and then leave. Where is management? This business is in trouble.

    Wow! These burgers were wonderful! Very flavorful, and you get what you pay for, a big, juicy,…read morestacked sandwich cooked to perfection. Little crunchy edges, and juicy in the middle. They weren't stingy with the toppings either. Homemade chips, juicy burger, good size portions - and VERY reasonable prices - couldn't be better. Now, our waitress Kayla was wonderful too! Kayla laughed and smiled with us, knew the menu, and her service was wonderful! If you go there, ask for her! We ate outside on a beautiful day on the lake. Just a fun, nice place to eat!

It was one of the better restaurant experiences that we've had recently. Located a mile north of the Indiana Toll Road, we found this place based on a search knowing this area was where we wanted to stop for dinner on our traverse to Chicago. It looked like a fun spot from the description and was certainly something different. An additional consideration was that we had our 21-month-old granddaughter and needed a place where we could so find something that appealed to her. Burgers are usually a good bet. The location on Simonton Lake was beautiful. It facilitated a treat before we ever stepped into the restaurant. There was a family of swans on the water with the parents and their six cygnets. They were indeed fun to watch. The lake created a wonderful setting from the outset. Upon entry, we were greeted by the friendly staff and were accommodated with a booth in the main dining room quickly. Our waitress, Kayla, attended to us right away and did a terrific job. We were well cared for during our visit. The food was delivered in a timely fashion without undue delay. We started with an order of Onion Rings, which turned out to be a great choice. They were crispy with flavorful breading that was not so thick as to be overwhelming. We also tried a couple of cocktails. While we like a glass of wine with our meal, we're not really cocktail people. But these intrigued us. I tried the Peach Sangria, which was very good. My wife had the Jameson Ginger Sparkler. Jameson and Ginger Ale has been a favorite of hers since we experienced the Jameson Factory tour in Dublin several years ago. This concoction was a nice take on that theme. Both drinks were "dangerous" because they were so tasty that you didn't notice they contained alcohol. In spite of the fact that this is primarily a burger pub, we found two salads that intrigued us for our mains. One was actually in keeping with the theme of the restaurant, as my wife had the Flippin Burger Salad. As the name suggests, it featured burger on greens with her choice of honey mustard dressing. She shared that with our granddaughter. They were both happy with the choice. I had the Flippin Whitefish Salad. The fish was nicely done and it seemed appropriate since we were by the lakeshore. I found it to be quite satisfying with the raspberry vinaigrette dressing. Unfortunately, they no longer make their Mango Chardonnay Dressing that used to accompany this salad. I've never had the chance to try it but it sounds like they should consider bringing it back. The total for our meals with food, drinks, tax and tip was $68. At $34 each as well as having enough to feed a toddler, we were very happy with this given the experience. We'll look forward to a return visit now that we know this place is there.
