    The CLASSIC
    Aliza W.

    So I tried this burger restaurant today. It was really good and I was pleasantly surprised. The menu was easy to read and pretty straight forward. I usually can't have cheese but the cheese on the burger didn't bother my stomach at all, all the ingredients blend together really good. Usually you can taste the ingredients separately however with this burger everything blends together. The cheese on the fries was pretty decent however it was more like a cheese wiz. One thing I did like the cheese was gooey instead of solid. That is usually my problem with cheese fries the cheese is solid. So that was a plus. I will definitely be making my "way back" lol. If you caught that. For more food content @worthydishes on instagram.

    Food: 5 Customer Service: 5 Location/ Parking: 5 Cleanliness: 5 This restaurant is situated in a small shopping plaza so there is no issues with parking. I've been meaning to trying this burger joint for a while, because I've noticed that they had good Google reviews. So we tried them tonight for dinner and we ordered the cheese steak sandwich ($9.50), the create your own burger ($10.25), and a large fry ($3.99). We placed an online order and went inside to pickup our order. Upon entering I was greeted by a very friendly and professional staff member. Our order wasn't ready when I arrived so I had to wait a little while. But our food came out hot and was well seasoned and plentiful. I was really impressed with the freshness of the food, yes indeed I will return! In my opinion the food was reasonable priced. Our overall dining experience was fabulous and I'm sure that we will be back in near future.  I'd highly recommend this restaurant to all!!!

    Greasy ass burger

    Waaaaaayyyyyyyyyy too overpriced for these little ass patties. Seriously they are a place that is too pretentious & don't live up to the prices. Came in with the fam & it was 4 of us. Granddaughter got a kids meal. Burgers & fries for myself & the SIL, hot dog & fries. $70 bucks!! Then to top it off my shake was runny & burger greasy af! See the pic. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME & money.

    We stopped in for a quick bite around 6:30 pm. Only a few diners inside. After ordering a classic burger and a cheese steak we waited for about 10 minutes before our food arrived. My wife enjoyed her burger. I got one bite. The beef had some flavor and was not dry or over cooked. My cheese steak was flavorful, not too salty. The bun was okay, soft and a bit chewy. Inside the bun, there was a generous amount of meat, sautéed onions, and just the right amount of whiz! For an inexpensive, casual meal, Wayback hits the spot!

    Not busy. We were only the second group of customers in the place. Got the order wrong. Completely missed an entire meal (paid for it just didn't serve it). Took 20 minutes to get the meal they missed. Fried sides were all under cooked and served cold (tater tots, home fries and French fries). The sandwiches were average. Way to expensive for what you get. Not a good value in food, customer service or atmosphere. Save your money and go somewhere else. Plenty of better options in Lexington. If you are the franchise owner reading this you are going to be gone soon like other overpriced burger joints in Lexington.

    Kids cheese with extra ($2 double patty). Good

Food was good, not…read moregreat, service was above average, prices were a little steep, but ultimately not awful, and the beer was cold. Cant complain too much! A pitcher of bud light was $12, and all though I appreciated the fact they gave me a pint glass with it, I was fine drinking straight from the pitcher! I modified my order of the wing chip nachos; I asked for any other cheese besides bleu cheese and for the chips to be done crispy- I hate floppy fries. Chips came out done perfectly and topped with shredded cheddar, would have liked for the cheese to have been better melted though. Most of the cheese was cooled and coagulated by the time it got to me, but it was fine. My buddy asked for his wings to be fried "super extra crispy, I'm talking HARD," and he said the wings were good, but they were not fried crispy at all. Trivia started at 7pm and the host was pretty good! We enjoyed ourselves and got to speak with him for a couple minutes after it was over. Only down side was that there was only 1 round of trivia which lasted about an hour (we were hoping for a couple rounds) and our prize was a $10 gift card and a $5 gift card. So our group of 4 tried to split them as fairly as possible since the bartender told us he couldn't just distribute them across our individual tabs (a couple bucks off each one), but we ended up combining all of our purchases and then splitting it 4 ways...which I wasnt super thrilled with but whatever. It would be nice to have a little bit of a better prize for trivia nights, but that wont stop me from coming out. All in all, not a bad experience at all. I'm not huge on wings, but I would definitely go back and enjoy another pitcher of beer, nachos, and some good trivia.

All of us enjoyed our fish meal. The fried shrimp were pretty salty, but the fish tasted very good. The tiny little cup of Cole slaw it's served with was average. The chips were just okay. My oldest said his taco was okay but on the dry side. He said he couldn't really taste the cilantro creamy sauce it was supposed to come with, so he asked our server for an extra tartar sauce. Then, he said it tasted better. The ambiance here is good. It's a very clean and comfortable spot to dine in. The prices are a little high, so for a family of three, I spent $50. I typically don't like to spend that much for three meals, but at least we enjoyed our proteins.

    Cuisine: 9 Service: 9…read moreDecor: 7 Value: 9 Overall: 9 I love this place! I wish we had a chain of affordable fried seafood restaurants that had such awesome service and deliciousness. The concept for the food here is "part Greek, part Southern, all Carolina". From what I can see, most of the entrees are southern based, but the sides have that Mediterranean touch. So far, my favorite menu items here are the fried shrimps, which are super addicting. They are mini sized popcorn shrimps, but don't let that fool you because it's a punch of flavor. Nice crispy batter that's not too thick, juicy and bouncy little shrimps that pairs wonderfully with the tartar sauce. Another thing I loved was their fried flounder. Perfectly cooked every time. The flaky flesh of the fish inside of that crunchy crust just can't get much better. One last honorable mention is their fish sandwich, which is packed with Alaskan fish fillet and that yummy tartar sauce. I would be dismissive if I should not bring up the amazing service of this "fast food" restaurant. I see the servers cleaning the tables and chairs constantly every time I'm here while providing a friendly smiling face whenever they are nearby. They ask how my food was and take the trays away when I'm done. All other fast food chains should learn from Showmars.

They proceeded to tell us it would be another 30 minutes. Also the seats that had "reserved" on them were still empty! They said they would take care of us, and walked us over to the bar side, and told us we would have to stand at the counter to eat! I was fuming. The other three from my party walked out, while i proceeded to tell the manager this was extremely poor service! All he could say was they were busy. I pointed out the empty tables that were empty when we first walked in an hour ago and are still empty! They finally gave us one of those tables.

It has a fun, nostalgic atmosphere without feeling overdone. I ordered the 10 oz ribeye with sweet potato soufflé and green beans. The steak was cooked a solid medium, just as ordered. It was juicy inside with good marbling, but the char from the grill was a little too heavy for my taste & overpowered some of the natural beef flavor. It also could've used a touch more salt. I do think serving it with a compound butter would take it up another notch. The sweet potato soufflé was creamy and smooth with just the right amount of sweetness, not overly sugary like some versions. The green beans were simple, well-seasoned Southern-style beans that paired nicely with the steak. The complimentary cornbread was warm, soft, and a nice touch before the meal. I couldn't leave without trying dessert, so I went with the Bananas Foster cake. The slice was huge and looked fantastic, but it was much sweeter than I expected. I only managed a couple of small bites before calling it quits. If you have a serious sweet tooth, you'll probably enjoy it more than I did. Service was friendly, and the food came out promptly. Despite how busy the restaurant was, everything felt well organized. Overall, Flight Deck delivers a unique aviation-themed dining experience with generous portions and a menu that has something for just about everyone. A few small tweaks to the steak seasoning and char would've easily pushed this to five stars. Would I return? Yes. I'd come back to try another entrée and maybe split a dessert next time.

Curiously, my wife's Southwestern salad featured breaded cheese curds, along with the breaded deep-fried chicken. The portion was generous and the dressing complemented the fresh greens. She wasn't able to finish her salad but I know she liked it because we became our "Doggie Bag." When I read the description of the Cobb salad I didn't notice that it included bacon, so I opted for some grilled chicken. Turns out my salad had a ton of crisp bacon so I got lots of protein with this one. I opted for the blue cheese dressing, and whatever blue cheese was not in the dressing was in the salad.
