Philly cheesesteak and tots.
Shelly A.

This little spot drums up all kinds of nostalgia for its classic hole-in-the-wall vibes! It's apparent the business owners want to serve good food and have plenty of space to host their guests. The menu is full of options. This was my 2nd visit and I had a cheesesteak sandwich with tarter tots this time. The tots were nothing to write home about but I'd absolutely go back for another hot, yummy Philly with cheese and grilled onions, and try a different side. They've got tons to taste and TVs to watch some sports. Take the gang out and give them a shot.

The picture doesn't do it justice. The Philly was *chef's kiss*

The food, the service, and the space was great! this place has been on my list of places to check out for awhile and I'm SOOO glad I did. The zucchini fries were great and that's what brought me in, but the Philly cheesesteaks are why I will be going back! I split my 8" with my husband and he is now a fan. I had mine with onions, mushrooms, banana peppers, provolone and cheddar cheese.

Accidentally missed my turn to the pizza place and walked in here. Best mistake I've made in a long time.

No cheese whiz
Moriah G.

First negative review in all our visits! Phone order - pick up (Saturday at 12:30pm was not busy) As always we stopped in but this time we decided to pick up because kids. Husband's sandwich had no cheese whiz. Living 25+ mins away couldn't just go back. Again first negative interaction but may stick to dine in only for us.

1/2 Philly & 4 Wings & Loaded Tots
Bailey H.

The staff were incredibly friendly and very helpful. The ambiance in the restaurant was very cool and kind of had a sports bar feel. The actual food kind of left me wanting more. Prices were a bit higher than expected and the menu was genuinely massive, intimidating and confusing. Everything is custom, there are no preselected toppings for anything which I don't typically enjoy. As someone who has no real Philly cheesesteak experience I truly have no idea what should or shouldn't go on the sandwich. This might be a positive for some but not for me. I would prefer a pre selected list of ingredients on the sandwich so I can see what the restaurant is going for. The steak meat was okay, not a lot of seasoning. Bread was cold and not toasted, not sure if thats normal. Wings and loaded tots were fine, nothing worth recommending. Perhaps I will try again in the future but this experience was disappointing.

Catfish Sandwich
Sutona S.

Ordered directly from Yelp. Took over an hour to arrive but it arrived warm and delicious so no complaints. Catfish was seasoned amazingly well and the burger was juicy! Next time, I'll prob go pick it up but if it was that good from a grub hub delivery you know it's bomb.

Philly cheesesteak and Chili Cheese Fries
Alizae L.

I ordered a Philly cheesesteak and some chili cheese fries. The fries were great but the Philly itself tasted a little off. Almost like the oil or grill wasn't freshly cleaned. I have not been back, but I really wanted to love this place. I might try again in the future.

Amazing mushroom cheeseburger
Syd G.

Our second time here and had to bump it up to five . Their customer service was stellar! The poor girl said she had call ins and was doing double duty at register and cooking. Still very friendly. We didn't even notice as our food still didn't take terribly long to get. Wow !!!! They nailed it. Those chili fries and tots were scrumptious. The burger was exceptional too. Even the bun was perfect. Not too thick and not too thin. The hamburger patties were cooked perfectly and a lot of flavor. Can't wait to come back again!

Ordered take out .... This place is very good! I got a half Philly and wings so yummy ! Can't wait to go back. My wife got the burger, Tasted so good ! The chili fries are also very good. Service was good got my food pretty fast.

Left side with soda fountain
Kelley K.

Not bad but- this place has a "but" and is 50/50 on my like / not so much tastebuds. It's a nice lunch spot that's spacious and clean on the inside. I liked my Philly with tasty meat but not the bread. I wish the bread was less ... bready, not in density just in the taste of too much white bread but again the meat was good. I also had the catfish special and I really enjoyed the light semi spicy beading and seasoning but not the fries. The fries were soft and didn't satisfy on this cold day, a few minutes in air or traditional fryer would do them good. The lady at the counter was fabulous and overall the customers were too. There were several regulars that were chatty and as nice as could be making this a very enjoyable lunch overall. Recommend a stop in if in the area and take advantage of the daily specials.

Half of my build your own.

This is a great local stop. Been here several times the past few years. I love the fried catfish. Super crispy and light batter. Just a great local spot decorated with different sports things. Employees are always friendly. Don't go for healthy food though The Philly sandwiches are great too.

The Shack Attack Burger
Lacretia M.

Craving an old fashioned hamburger, I found this dive by happenstance. The decor and scenery are welcoming - nothing too dull or over the top, and the service was top notch! As a first timer, the build-your-burger route was recommended. With varies ways to dress my burger, I wasn't disappointed. It was the right amount of options to choose from. When the basket came to the table, I was a bit intimidated. It's MASSIVE!!! However, I cut it down the middle and went to town. Each bite coupled with the seasoned fries was a treat! If you're in the DFW area, don't hesitate to give this spot a try! I'll definitely be back to try a Cheesesteak...I heard they're served the Philly way w/cheese whiz. Enjoy!

They are now charging 50¢ per slice of tomato on top of their regular price due to a shortage & are overcompensating with onion. They used to be pretty generous with their fries - we got just enough to fill the slip. They also filled our cups to the brim with ice & we got very little soda. Considering we paid $4 for the fries and drink (a combo) to be added to the gyro, it's like a slap in the face to the customer to get so little for so much. The only thing consistent about the meal and past experiences was the homemade ranch. I know times are hard and the cost of things have also gone up, but it's these little things that make you consider taking your hard earned money somewhere else. 3 stars because we generally are happy with the food we get. It just might be a while until we patronize again.

The ongoing remodel looks fantastic, and the venue already feels bigger, brighter, and more welcoming. The live music is one of my favorite things about this place, and the bands always create a fun atmosphere. On top of that, the food has been excellent. Everything I've ordered has been tasty, and I'm looking forward to seeing what else gets added to the menu. The staff has always been friendly and welcoming. Before criticizing a server, remember that waitressing is hard work. A server may be new or simply overwhelmed during a busy shift. Everyone deserves a little grace, especially when they're working hard to take care of customers. The Thirsty Turtle was already a great spot, but it's getting better every day. Highly recommend stopping by to check it out!

Yelp Review Girls'…read moreNight Out - Australian Takeover I was extremely disappointed with how this event was handled. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that the venue was far too small for the number of people attending. The establishment appeared severely overcrowded, making it difficult to move around, and the situation raised serious safety concerns. In the event of an emergency, I would be very concerned about how quickly guests could safely exit. There was also an upsetting interaction involving the owner, Michelle, and a young woman attending the event. From what I witnessed, the situation escalated when the young woman was accused of going behind the bar after being told to walk to the end of the bar to get her own water. The interaction became heated, and the young woman was ultimately asked to leave. I personally witnessed Michelle push her, which made the accusation that the young woman had hit Michelle especially concerning. Unfortunately, the overall experience was not worth the $55 admission. Drinks took approximately 45 minutes to get, and the bathroom line was just as long. The entertainment itself also did not live up to what I expected from an event advertised as an "Australian Takeover." Overall, this event was a major disappointment. I hope the establishment takes a serious look at crowd capacity, guest safety, and how situations with customers are handled. Based on my experience, I would not recommend spending $55 on this event.
