Years ago, I was treated to lunch from the other Raleigh location, and really never had a desire to…read moremake the drive down. I did remember the fries being really good.
My daughter and I decided to try this location recently, and she loved her burger, the Rodeo. I got the Bacon Cheeseburger. We split a large fry, and when I say split, I mean ate about half and brought the rest home. I mean, there are a lot of fries, and that day they were good enough I couldn't shut up about them.
Today, visit 2 to the Wakefield location! It's National Burger Day, I mean, isn't it some day every day!? She wanted the Rodeo burger with one patty, and I asked for the cheeseburger. Well, a little miscommunication here, because I didn't realize I should have said something different to get the deal, but that was straightened out. The manager came over and said the deal was for the 2-patty burger, so he called back to fix that, but I said not to because I wanted the deal, but only 1 patty. Whew..........problem solved!
We begin eating, and let me tell you, I think it's better with the one patty! My daughter enjoyed hers again, and I enjoyed mine more, even without bacon! The fries, still good, but not quite as crispy. Then, yep, my poor ordering got another burger brought out to us. It was really a win for me, because we went soon after to pick a child up from exams (done for the day, maybe the year!), and so she had a full meal, since again, so many fries............so many delicious crispy fries were left.
With it being more conveniently located, I can see it becoming a regular spot. They have a lunch special for $11.99, I know, it seems high, but it is pretty tasty, and did I mention the fries?
The negative for me, well us, is we want ONE patty, and there's no change in price for not getting the 2nd patty (which they give you if you don't specify). and if you've never been, I'd advise you take time to view the available free toppings, because I'm fine with those.
My one picture is from last week of the 2 patty bacon cheeseburger and 1/2 the large fries.
Next time, maybe the sweet potato fries, and for the $1 extra, fluff..........time will tell.
