Plenty of parking available too, which made the whole visit easy. I went with the double patty smash burger topped with aioli, and it did not disappoint -- juicy, flavorful, and cooked just right. You could tell the beef was good quality and the smash technique gave it that perfect crispy edge. The vibe inside is laid-back with sports playing on the TVs, which made for a nice casual lunch spot. Will definitely be coming back to try more off the menu!"

Why have a "loyalty program" when they add points then reverse it later that same day. I went today and ordered my usual 2 burgers, fries and drinks. I gave my phone number for the Points. I then asked Vieann H (who identified herself as the manager) when I showed her my receipt from last time I visited and questioned why they reversed the previous points and why I got none from this receipt I produced. She tried to act like it was my fault I received no points and couldn't tell me why the points were reversed from the previous visit (even after she went back in the office to do the research. She told me when came back from the office, she could see all my order history but she couldn't give me back any points from my 2 previous visits. I told her this will be the last time I come and she is losing a customer over 29 points. SHE COULD CARE LESS. Her response to this was "I went in the back to do research". Beware! They don't even deserve the 1 Star I had to give them.

I think they're more into the Belgians, but I found a couple of West Coast-like IPAs. The cool thing about Burning is that they have food or an attached food truck. We went for Patty Melt/fries and a wedge. It was good and just my helpful two cents, if you're going to stay away from Rye bread in a Patty, you need lots of grilled onions. I love the white bread idea but it's more of a Chester than a Patty melt. Better news: Burning Beard is moving to a larger local, much larger, and a dedicated kitchen. Can't wait.

2 Dinners: A dinner…read moremeal order of 6 (supposedly butterflied) fried shrimps comes with straight-cut french fries and coleslaw, at a price of $15.00. The biggest issue was that the shrimps were soooo small. This is NOT butterflied. They were barely passable as tasty and nothing I would ever write home about. The fries were acceptable, but eh, okay. NO cole slaw at all was included in my meal. F A I L!! Geez...I was looking forward to the 'homemade' cole slaw they tout, which costs $4.49 separately. I didn't even get the one that's supposed to come with the order. The second dinner meal ordered was fried fish (1piece) and shrimps (4 pieces) for $15.00, which came with french fries. My daughter said the taste was 'just okay'. For $30, I was expecting much, much more satisfaction from this place, based on their almost 5* rating. Money is too hard to come by these days to waste it on mediocre food and complacent quality control. It's a one and done for me.

He treated us like valued guests, not like customers walking in near closing time. What impressed me most was that he genuinely seemed to care about our experience. He was friendly, attentive, made great recommendations, and even surprised us with a small piece of chocolate on the house. It's the little things like that that people remember. Restaurants are only as good as the people who represent them, and Mohammad is the kind of employee every business wishes they had. If management sees this, please recognize and support him--employees with this level of professionalism and kindness are rare. We'll definitely be back because of him. Thank you, Mohammad!
