One of the most delicious & juicy burgers that I’ve ever had. The fries were crispy & delicious & the custard sundae was creamy & delicious with no grit or ice crystals They make their custard in-house every day! I love the 50’s decor & vibe that the place has!!

It was our first time here and we had great experience! Good food and our waitress did a great job. I had the cheesesteak and fries. My wife had a grilled cheese and fries. I also had a banana split and it was amazing!

Went to HWY 55 today on a suggestion. Been driving past this place many times in Oak Ridge when going to grab a bite to eat. The atmosphere was nice. The wait staff was attentive and courteous. The price was decent. I will definately be going back. This place is inba strip mall type building and can be hard to see if you’re driving fast on the road. But it’s definitely worth the visit.

We stopped in around 1230pm on a Friday after a morning hike. We did not go inside because we had our dog with us, so we sat outside. There are about 4 tables in front that are under a covered area. As each customer came up or were leaving there was someone greeting them or thanking them. That is a nice touch. While we were looking over the menu, one if the employees asked if it was ok for our dog to have a burger. We said yes. They brought her a chopped up burger. Great job thinking about our furry family member. I order a classic burger and doubled it. It was definitely a classic burger. The bun was very soft and fresh. The cheese was perfectly melted. The burger was juicy but not running down your arm juicy. The burger was awesome and would get again. The fries were good but not great. The service was very good and attentive to more than our needs. They are opening one in Hardin Valley. We will be there for sure.

Our server was amazing! Our food was hot, fresh and delicious. Our server felt confident in giving her opinions on things to try and we chose those items and were not disappointed! We did have to wait a bit for food but it was in the middle of lunch rush and we had 4 plates plus appetizer at our table. 15 minute wait tops. I loved them bringing out ice cream of the day samples to help us choose our desserts. I loved the retro style atmosphere. My kids had a great time and enjoyed their fresh in store made ice cream with sprinkles.

Very good service. The onion rings are breaded well and the onions don’t come out of the batter when you take a bite. Fried pickles were also very good. Breading wasn’t as thick as with the onion rings, but the pickles themselves are VERY good quality.

I had the chicken platter, wife had the cheesesteak, both were fantastic! The staff went so far above and beyond without us even asking. Kitchen staff sent replacement for my half eaten meal because they said they were unhappy with the appearance, even though I thought it was already great. Server was prompt, courteous and accommodating in a way you just don’t see anymore. Incredible experience. We will be back soon!!!

I would avoid this place at all costs. Found a piece of metal cooked into my burger.

Me and my husband were in a little bit of a hurry and one of the cooks off the line personally checked on us and let us sample the pimento cheese. He made our first visit smooth and fast. The food was hot and ready and very tasty! We had the pimento cheese and bacon sandwich and the pimento bacon burger. Both five Star meals. The waitress was polite and very quick. Fantastic visit and fantastic food with very friendly service!
