Our server wasn't very easy to talk to, our food took long and meal was unsatisfying. Like I know it was fast food but everything looked sad and small.

No. This is the second bad experience I've had and I'm just not ready for a third.

What has happened to my beloved Apollo Burger? I hate writing this review…read more I grew up eating Apollo Burger, and the gyro used to be one of my favorite things on the menu. The meat was flavorful, substantial, and tasted like an actual lamb gyro. I recently took my wife to Apollo and talked her into trying the gyro because I remembered it so fondly. I was honestly embarrassed when it arrived. The meat was awful--an extremely processed, generic-tasting product that bore little resemblance to the lamb gyro I remember. It was basically pita bread wrapped around something that tasted like cheap lunch meat. I don't expect a fast-food restaurant to be gourmet, but a Greek-owned restaurant should be able to make a decent gyro. This wasn't merely mediocre; it was genuinely unpleasant. I have a lot of affection for what Apollo Burger used to be, which is probably why this disappointed me so much. Unfortunately, I won't be ordering the gyro again.

I've thought it the best salad by far from any fast-casual dining experience. I've noticed in the last several months, the quality has wavered and gone down from years of experience in ordering this item. Salad seems to be smaller. The new bacon bits seem odd. The freshness of the salad leafs are not always fresh. It's just not as good as it used to be. On top of that, the girl bringing the food to my table was not customer friendly. Just kind of threw it on my table without saying a word. I miss my once majestic Chubbys. Please come back.

Lol I ordered a bacon mushroom burger, cinnamon scones, beer battered French fries, and the baked beans The bacon on the burger was amazing. It was thick and cooked to a crispy texture. Swiss cheese, tomatoes, and mushrooms rounded off the patty that was not cooked all the way. There was no seasoning on the burger and unfortunately, you could taste the blood from the meat not being cooked all the way. I thought the bun was not dense enough for the size of the burger. The beer bettered fries was the best! I loved the coating on the fries that gave it that extra crunch but had that soft texture that I love. The chubby sauce was fry sauce with some added spices with a little kick. It was awesome! The baked beans had a really nice flavor and not too tart. Instead of bacon, they put beef chunks. I didn't mind the take on it. I broke off a piece of the cinnamon scone and I didn't think it was anything special. That was until I noticed the glaze that was underneath the scones. I didn't realize that it was there until it got cold. I think the glaze needs to go in top of the scones. Living in SLC, I'm not sure if I'd drive back to Oren for this place. I'm glad I tried it.

This place practically has a shrine for BYU fans! I think I found the location for my next birthday party.

Their tortillas are super good, doesn't matter what you have inside of them, meat, beans, cheese, etc, just make sure and try a tortilla. Also, their large fry is huge! and their fries taste great, super non filling, but they taste good, like McDonalds fries. I totally recommend these guys.

But that is not why you are here. Every summer Taco Amigo does something magical with fresh ripe strawberries and it makes everything else irrelevant. Their strawberry shakes are the real reason this place has a loyal following, and after one try you will completely understand it. Real strawberries, generous with them, blended into something that makes summer feel shorter than it actually is. When strawberry season winds down, the fresh peach shakes take over in the fall and they are nearly as good. Nearly. Yes, the wait on weekends during shake season is real. Go anyway. This is a locally owned spot with a friendly staff, a clean space, and something genuinely special coming out of that blender. That combination deserves support. My honest advice: eat somewhere else first, then stop here for dessert. Order the strawberry shake and find a spot to enjoy it. Five stars, every single one of them earned by that shake.

So simple, yet so good, as tacos should be! Their food here is very straight forward - Mexican and tasty, no extra bells and whistles.

For tacos, I got asada, pollo, cabeza, tripe, al pastor, and lengua. Their service is good, quick enough, and the works are kind. I will say, there might be a slight language barrier (Spanish vs. English) but nothing to worry about. This location is quite big, lots of tables! Inside of this location, there is also a dessert/drink spot. I love the protein options they have here. I sometimes just order by the pound with their Spanish red rice and call it a good night!
