  1. Went for lunch and had a delicious BBQ grilled chicken sandwich with bacon and onion rings on top and fries on the side for $11. The others at my table got burgers and reviewed them well. I docked a star because at the price you can get a burger and fries at almost any other bar or restaurant in the area with a nicer atmosphere/decor.

  2. Milkshake, double bacon cheeseburger, bacon fries. Sounds like a heart attack. Somehow managed to finish everything. Everything was superb despite finding a hair in my first burger. Sent it back and they came out with a new burger in minutes.

  3. This is the benchmark for all classic burger bars. It's all about the patty and more specifically the meat to fat ratio. These guys dare to mix in a higher and therefore tastier fat content that just drips out goodness. The brioche bun soaks up some of this juiciness and still holds itself together, not crumbling like lesser buns.
    Incredibly friendly and efficient service in a pleasingly minimalist, simple classic stainless steel and white melamine interior. And booths, you have to have booths.

  4. Classic Retro Diner in look and the menu. Great for a quick Burger or sandwich, or a good old milkshake too. All served with a smile (made of ketchup in a paper bowl)

  5. Came for a late-night dinner with a friend because I had a coupon for a free shake with any burger or sandwich..or did I..? NOPE, wrong again! Coupon was only for the South Street Seaport location which went out of business, yet the coupon is good until the very end of 2014. Odd and pointless much? They couldn't even honor it at this location, couldn't pull any strings. Disappointing, but at least my burger was very yummy and fries were good! I like the 50s diner setting. I'll be going to the location either in Hoboken or Jersey City to get my free shake!

  6. Hadn't been to one in ages but needed a burger & decided to go again.  I wasn't the one who had stomach issues stopping me from going; one upside to being free of my spouse, I suppose.

    I mentioned I was in a rush & did get my food in a timely fashion with plenty of time to get to my appointment in Brooklyn.  It won't be the cheapest but you will get food that won't make you ill in a short time.  Tried the new smores campfire milkshake though maybe I'd have something else if I went again since it feels like the concept sounds better in my head than on my tastebuds.  Still glad I went to this location & will definitely remember it when I'm in the area.

  7. That's one tasty burger [Samuel L. Jackson voice]. For a place that gets lost in all of this city's impressive burger scene, they make a solid burger.  The endless fries are really good too. And who doesn't love dipping their fries into a smiley face ketchup person? Try the spicy houston, it's my favorite burger on the menu.  Oh and the service at this location is excellent.

  8. NOTE: The Yelp times for this place are wrong. They're open 24 hours every day.

    We stopped in just for dessert and were impressed by the selection. We fell prey to the shakes and floats.

    1. Float: I chose Orange Fanta. This was very interesting. The big scoop of vanilla ice cream was delicious, but I had to really stir the glass in order to make it taste like orange cream soda. It ultimately did. This drink is huge, but not necessarily cheap at $6.

    2. M&M shake: It's hard not to compare this to the McFlurry. In my opinion, the McFlurry is better. But this is not bad either. It's pretty pricy for what you get. For $5, you get a pretty small cup. The consistency is a little harder than the McFlurry.
