They know their burgers! The service is "lacking" because this is a pick up location with an outdoor dining area. Gotta love their attitude through the window, old school, may be a little bit too rough for some. Burger wise, their special is truly special. A good balance of chili, patty, produce, and sauces. Go all in, you will thank them right away.
