Matty G’s is a casual family restaurant with a sports theme atmosphere. The menu is mostly burgers. They use grass fed beef and serve the burgers in mostly two 4oz patties that are nicely caramelized. They offer cocktails and beer on tap and milkshakes made with frozen custard. This is a casual restaurant. You get full service at the bar but if you want to sit at a table you order and pay at the bar like any other fast casual restaurant. I went with a non-burger option and got a “birdie” platter combo. I had my choice of fried or grilled and went with grilled. The chicken was caramelized and served on a soft toasted bun. The chicken was ever so slightly over cooked but still good and was a tasty sandwich. For my side I got the onion rings. The onion rings were very hardy and very bread-ee. My husband got the “All Star” burger platter combo. His burger(s) was nicely caramelized. He received a MOUNTAIN of garlic parm fries that came with fry sauce. His only complaint is that he thought each burger patty should have a slice of cheese instead of just one slice of cheese between the patties. I think the food overall was A-OK and an A-ok is three stars. This is a neighborhood restaurant so that means that you aren’t going to travel across town to eat here. You come here if you live nearby and want something casual and not too fancy. The help were especially helpful and friendly.

Burgerim Gourmet Burgers – Menu with Prices – 800 Ocala Rd #350, Tallahassee

I was excited to try the Uncut (plant based) burger here but was met with nothing but issues from the door. While ordering the cashiers rings our burgers up as 1/3lb Angus Beef burgers and I’m like “whoa, uh, we are vegetarian. Those need to be changed to the plant based burgers.” She responds by telling me that there is no button in the machine for the Uncut burger and so she has to ring it up this way and then tell the cook to switch it to the Uncut burger. Major red flag! Had I have listed to my gut we would have said “no thank you” and just walked out, but we stayed nonetheless. My boyfriend and I ordered our burgers two different ways. He also ordered a combo and I simply asked for fries and no drink. We were charged for 2 combos anyway and I was handed a cup which I filled with water since I don’t drink sodas or juice. After having been seated for 23 minutes his burger comes to the table and not only was his burger all the way wrong, but when the cashier came back over to us she states that they have run out of fries (this is like 7pm on a Saturday and we are one of only 2 sets of customers in the place) and asks if I’d like onion rings instead. I opt for a combo of rings and sweet potato fries and a full 6 minutes later my burger and sides show up. My burger has the standard toppings on it, not the ones I ordered and my rings were seriously overcooked. If I weren’t already so annoyed and tired I would have sent it back, but I figured I’d just eat so we could get the hell out of the place. The flavor of the Uncut patty is amazing and that is THE ONLY REASON THIS PLACE GETS ONE STAR! Anyone looking for great service and a decent burger (vegan or otherwise) in town would do much better to go to Vertigo. Burgerim is the worst!

Burgerim Gourmet Burgers – Halal – Menu with Prices – 44029 Osgood Rd #140, Fremont

I don’t know if it’s just us who have noticed, but for a while now, it seems like Burger IM is popping up EVERYWHERE. Interested to see what they have to offer, the hubby and I stopped by for an early Sunday lunch. The restaurant was practically empty when we arrived, but considering the space, it could certainly host large groups thanks to the plethora of seats. The menu, while clear, does take some time to navigate. Burger IM offers your usual burgers that you would expect at most burger joints, but to stand out from the crowd, it also offers the duo and trio which allows you to select two or three different mini hamburgers. Wanting to try some variety, the hubby and I both went for the duo. He chose the Angus beef and crispy fried chicken while I got the Merguez beef and the UNCUT burger (plant-based patty), both with swiss cheese instead of cheddar. We also shared a “half&half” side of onion rings and sweet potato fries While it was neat to try four different burgers, it also meant the kitchen had to MAKE four different burgers which definitely ate into the service. We waited for an uncomfortable amount of time for our food and we were the only ones there. We hate to think how long it would have taken if there was a crowd… Presentation isn’t necessarily a strong suit, but everything looked fresh. I was bummed to see that for our side, there were only three onion rings on a bed of sweet potato fries that were thankfully fried perfectly. As for the burgers, the hubby and I loved each patty immensely. You could really taste the difference and I was blown away by the plant-based patty. It was so juicy! The Merguez patty was filled with aromatic spices and the Angus beef was cooked well. We weren’t too fond of the sesame buns, wishing it was toasted more. For the amount of food we got, prices are more than reasonable. Burger IM was such pleasant surprise, giving us the chance to try four different patties in one hearty, delicious meal. I’m certain we will come back again!

The Rawls Course – Menu with Prices – The Rawls Course at Texas Tech, 3720 4th St, Lubbock

I visited Lubbock yesterday and the first thing I did when I got there was meet my brother at The Rawls Course – Texas Tech’s very own golf club. Neither of us had eaten lunch yet and we were both starving, so we decided to try Jerry’s Grill located inside the clubhouse. I ordered the Stubb’s burger ($6.50) – a 1/3lb. hamburger that’s been grilled with BBQ sauce, melted cheese, and topped with two fried onion rings. It also comes with french fries. Oh man, this burger was good! Succulent patty soaked in Stubb’s very own BBQ sauce. I love the fried onion rings on top because they lend a new crispy texture to every bite. The french fries were crispy and not overly salted. I like that they still had the skin on them. Everything was just.. great! Besides burgers, Jerry’s also has a bunch of fresh sandwiches and salads and earlier in the day, they serve breakfast too. Afterwards, we were supposed to hit some golf balls, but who can play golf after eating all that? That’s why I recommend you play first and eat afterwards. Reward yourself after a long, hot day of golf with an ice cold beverage and one of Jerry’s excellent burgers.

Motley School Tavern – Menu with Prices – 1903 Beaver Ave, Des Moines

Really wanted to love this place but it’s just ok. Atmosphere 3/5: nice and casual but the layouts a bit weird, they seated our party of six at a table that was divided by posts which was weird. We were also seated next to an area where the servers congregated, the result is that their conversation along with the overall “loudness” of the venue made it hard for our group to have conversations without almost shouting. Entrees and apps 2/5: we arrived starving and anticipating a great meal. We started with onion rings and pretzels. The onion rings were nicely flavored but a bit too spicy for some in our party. The pretzels were warm and dipping sauces good but the pretzels were more like Olive garden breadsticks and a bit bland. Then we had the MST burger, double stack burger, chicken fried steak, and the zucchini pasta. Honestly the best part of the entrees were the fries that came with the burgers. If you have eaten at islands in California the fries were just like those. The burgers were a bit weird, they were good but they were tiny in width and very tall. The party was more like a meat ball than a burger. They reminded me of the burgers my mom used to make, the round Patty balls in between white bread. Burgers were just ok. The chicken fried steak was gross honestly, the steak was mealy and almost cold on the inside. Tasted like they fried it while it was frozen. The worst was the zucchini pasta. First, remember that the pasta is not made from zucchini which is he description might infer. Second it was covered in a romesco that was weirdly spiced, it was spicy and minty which was a HORRIBLE combo. Don’t order this. Desserts 5/5: we ordered all of them, and the scotheroos, the donuts and the crumble. All were good but for me the best were the donuts, light and airy with a wonderful dipping sauce. Doubt we will ever be back since it’s far and I only travel for excellent meals not mediocre but I hope they stay in business. Important to note that service was 5/5 they were amazing. They even took the time to ask why we didn’t like the pasta because they noticed it was the only dish we didn’t ask to be boxed up.

Papou George’s Hot Dogs – Menu with Prices – 303 Oyster Point Rd, Newport News

Warning: BRING CASH. This place doesn’t accept credit cards. There is an ATM owned by the restaurant. Using this ATM racked up almost $10 in fees overall. Inside is 50’s type retro kitch and various license plates nailed to the wall. It’s small, moderately clean and home to a mostly older crowd. The food was OK. I have had better for the price. I got a veggie omelette and my companion had a burger and onion rings. The omelette was passable, even though the veggies were basically raw giving it a strange crunch. The burger, however, was disappointing. The burgers are pre-formed patties like you find in the freezer aisle. Unless it says otherwise all burger and sandwich prices are for just the burger or sandwich: any sides are extra. My companion felt like they were being nickle and dimed on an overpriced freezer burger. I’ll stick to Viking Burger, 5 guys or Vancostas for my burgers. Pre-formed patties aren’t my thing. Cracker Barrel and Vancostas (again!) have better omelettes for the same price range. It wasn’t terrible, but I can’t see me going back any time soon.

Good Burger Menu with Prices 7609 W Overland Rd, Boise

We decided to give this homegrown Boise burger joint a try, not being fans of chain eateries. There were 3 of us, and we all chose a different item from the menu. The Bacon Cheeseburger, because I figured you can’t go wrong with that, a Mushroom Swiss burger, and a Jalapeno Burger. We also ordered onion rings and fries, to try the majority of the menu, along with regular sodas to drink. First off, the Bacon Cheeseburger… it seems that I was wrong and that one can ruin that basic burger. I felt like I was eating cardboard and sawdust, it was that dry and tough. I understand they do all their burgers well-done and most times that has to do with health codes or CYA when it comes to meat borne illness, but there’s a fine line between well done and overdone and dry. There was literally no meat juices left in the hamburger. The bacon was half done, and soggy, hanging down the sides of my burger. I literally ate 2 bites of the burger and pushed it aside. It was that unappetizing visually and orally. My sister had the Mushroom and Swiss Burger, and her burger was overdone to the point of being dry and hard with no meat juices left as well. Melted cheese and mushrooms cannot make up for dry meat. The burger itself was also very sloppily assembled and when opened, the bun was askew and all of the toppings were all over the outside of the burger. The toppings were eaten with a fork, the burger left alone. My husband had the Jalapeno Burger and his burger patty was also overdone. He ate the burger and said he did not enjoy it, but he also will eat burned toast. None of our patties had flavor. My husband had the onion rings and they were oily and not crisp, I had the fries and they were also oily and not crisp. I hate to do that thing where you say “I have been in all areas of the food service and hospitality sector for many years and…”, but I really have been there done that and can say here that it’s probably not the concept that is at fault, but management for not having training benchmarks and employee training, for not meeting those benchmarks. Your fryer temperatures were not hot enough to cook the fries and rings to seal that outside layer properly, or those fries and rings had been sitting too long. No one like soggy fries or onion rings. Your grill employees were not trained well enough on your grill to recognize when a burger is medium well and to pull it at that point, as it will continue to go to well done while it is sitting on your prep board, thus satisfying health regulations as well as customer expectation of having a juicy burger. All the fancy things you throw on a burger will not disguise the fact that your base is not done well. The public is becoming more discerning, and there are other choices out there.

Ford’s Garage Kissimmee – Menu with Prices – 3210 Margaritaville Blvd, Kissimmee

I had an excellent meal here. It was National Cheeseburger day and that sounded good. I had previously been to a Ford’s Garage in Tampa area and had a great burger. I brought my parents along. We had a great server named Kevin, he was attentive and always made sure we were taken care of. I started with a Pumpkinhead beer. They do it right by putting a rim of cinnamon sugar on the glass. It’s the little things. We started off with the GIANT FUNNEL TOWER OF JUMBO PISTON ONION RINGS. They were crispy on the outside and the onion on the inside was firm not mushy. They had a nice flavor that was not too sweet like some onion rings. They were also very hot and were not sitting around. I like how they are served on an oil funnel. I tried there new seasonal burger, it was an Australian Wagyu Beef Spicy burger. I subbed out the standard bun for a pretzel bun. This burger was awesome. The Wagyu beef does make a difference. It has more flavor and is tender. The burger was topped with fried jalapeños, a spicy sauce and Pepper-jack cheese. This was very filling and probably one of the best burgers I have had recently. They do not do regular fries. They serve Potato wedges and they are seasoned nicely and go well with the chipotle ketchup that is served with the onion rings. My mom had a Chop Shop Salad with Salmon. This salad is huge and they can swap the lettuce mix for romaine. The salmon that is added on is a 6 oz fillet. My mom ate half and took half home for lunch the next day. My dad had a Mushroom Swiss burger that was perfect. Overall a great meal and well done. I look forward to coming back again soon.

Fatburger & Buffalo’s Express – Menu with Prices – 2795 Cabot Dr Suite 6-102, Corona

I’m giving 5 stars to the manger 0 stars to the employee who was supposedly the crew leader . Noah was extremely unprofessional. We had an order of a 1/3 pound combo with Swiss cheese and onion rings inside the burger . We requested the burger to be cut in 1/2 .. while our order was delivered we noticed that there was neither cheese nor onion rings on the burger . We let them know . They took the burger back . 4 mins later Noah brought the burger back wearing gloves in his hand opening the burger showing us that there were onion rings on it and we didn’t see it .. as he was opening the burger like he was flipping pages of a book . I said enough … we requested the burger to be cut in half and if they were any onions rings on it they supposed to be cut not still round . His answer was I will check the cameras and I let you know … I asked for the Manager’s name and I called next day .. he apologized and he did his best to offer a welcome back .. I appreciated his act but simply I will never go back .. cause a company that have a policy of going through customers food when mistake happened and are not willing to remake the Customers food so that they can save in their cost .. that’s extremely inhuman … Again the reason why I am giving 3 stars cause the manager Ein did his best and he took the responsibility for his crew leader act … and that was a good example of leadership … again treat customers the same way you want to be treated . Customers spend time , money and energy to open your restaurant door …

Hi-Pointe Drive-In – Menu with Prices – 634 Washington Ave, St. Louis

I had such high expectations for this place, but it was bad. I mean, worse than McDonald’s bad. I ordered a single cheeseburger with a side of fries and my significant other had the same, but with onion rings. We shared the rings and fries. The buns on the burgers were hard and cold, and the patty on their burger was dry and small, and room temperature, as well as dry. The fries were room temp as well and the cheese sauce I ordered on the side was the worst I’ve ever had. It wasn’t even on par with the bright yellow stuff one gets with nachos at a ballgame. It was pale, mostly tasteless, and not good. The onion rings were ok, but nothing to write home about and the portion was tiny. In the side of rings there were about 4 rings total. It isn’t as if onions are expensive, so I’m not sure what the issue is there. We also shared a shake, and I can honestly say it was the best thing I experienced there. It was hand shaken and quite tasty. However, I was disappointed by their choices of liquor that one can add to a shake if they choose for $3. I was expecting Godiva chocolate liqueur, or vanilla schnapps, or Bailey’s, but no, the liquor selection for shakes consists of rail (generic) vodka or rum. Yippee! I can’t understand why this place is so popular. The food isn’t good. I’ve had better burgers at Culver’s. That’s not a dig at Culver’s it’s just me, making a point that Hi Point charges twice as much for a product that is considerably inferior. I won’t be back. One of the worst burgers I’ve had.

Shenanigans Kitchen and Cocktails – Menu with Prices – 4612 Quincy St, Metairie

I have ordered from them twice before and the food was good – burger, quesadilla, and onion rings. I ordered a 2 shrimp poboys and onion rings. We were astonished to find a shrimp poboy without fried shrimp. They were grilled or baked or something else. The onion rings were $7.75 for 10, yes 10. Absolutely a rip off. I went back to the DoorDash app and rechecked to male sure I did not order wrong but there is nothing but the size of the poboy and if you want cheese. Don’t think I will ever order from there again.

South Philly Cheesesteaks – Menu with Prices – 1439 Main St, Sarasota

Walked in here and understand they just opened to the public this week. Its an open environment with a cool brick wall on one side, and wooden/steel wall on the other. Nice wooden tables. Our server was friendly and was efficient. We had a few questions and she answered all of them quickly. I didn’t want the grilled onions or hot peppers on my large 10″ cheesesteak and wanted lettuce, tomato, and onion instead. She said no problem, but charged me $1 extra. I also wanted onion rings instead of bagged potato chips or fries and told her I would pay extra, but she said that was not possible, so I went with the fries. We also ordered a Swiss mushroom burger and sweet potato fries, but when it came out, it was with onion rings–very odd (because she originally said onion rings as an upgrade was not possible!). We eventually got our sweet potato fries that we originally ordered and she had the nerve to charge us an extra $3 for the onion rings (that we never did order). It looks like when it comes to upgrades and changes, they are a bit confused, so who knows what’s allowed. The good news is that the cheesesteak was very good tasting, although for a large, it wasn’t that big. You would think a large would be at least a foot long for $11.50. The fries were fresh cut, but tasted a bit off and dry, and they were very dark in color, along with the onion rings. Perhaps they needed to change the oil in their fryer. The sweet potato fries were okay. They also serve beer here at very reasonable prices.
