Long line and finding a seat was challenging. Burger was top notch though the grease sort of made the buns disintegrate by the end. In it's category (basic, non-gourmet, greasy "bar" burger), it ranks right near the top IMHO.

I liked the rings, but PonyPride wasn't as impressed with them.

The consensus was that the cheese fries should be passed on. Save your money and your caloric reserve for cheese fries at First & 10.


I support this cheese fry opinion.

at M&M go for the Tots.

i wasn't that impressed. you can basically get the exact same burger at Club Schmitz with out the ridiculous Diners Drive in and Dives line out the door.

it's not dive, it's faux dive.

I have not been to Jakes in about 3 years but when I did go, it was good. Had In N Out the other night. Got a double double Animal style. It was very good.

Had lunch at Maple and Motor when I was in town for the SMU/UCF game, I was not really impressed. I mean the burger was good but not great. I think I would rather go to In and Out if I had the choice.

Think Burger Box makes better burgers compared to In N Out, but they closed the one in Arlington.
