It’s got a large hand-painted menu on the front of the building, so you can decide what you want, or you can walk up to the building and open a weather-proof box and grab a menu. We also found out they have a gluten-free menu, as well, if you need that.
It’s tough to decide here, since everything sounds good and the menu is deep. I went out of the norm and got an olive burger (with ketchup) with garlic -parmesan fries. D.Rough got a mushroom and swiss burger with onion rings. The food came out pretty quick and was exactly what we needed.
The olive burger was better than I expected, basically because it was a great way to add salt (olives) and salt (ketchup) so a salted meat patty. There’s just something about a burger cooked on a flat top grill basting in its own juices that I love. Really good diner burger, and not crazy expensive and elevated – just solid.
The garlic-parmesan fries were weird, but still delicious. It tasted like fries with Caesar dressing on them, even though it was very clearly parmesan and a garlic sauce. I’d probably get these again, since they were pretty filing and again, salty.
D's mushroom and swiss burger was even better than my olive burger. Even more flavors and juice in hers, so I was a little jealous afterwards. And the onion rings were solid performers, but not the best I’ve had. Just good.
While we were there, we got to see a couple of old timey cars from a nearby auto show, which of course made the whole thing more old-school-drive-in, as well. The food was good and the sun was out and the cars/people-watching were on point – this was a great visit!
