    No joke: best burger in San Antonio. This is the zen of the hamburger with all components working in harmony... and crinkle fries. :-)

    The Working Man special was an awesome deal. Afterwards we found out you could sub your soda for a milkshake. Milkshakes are handmade as well :)

    Shakes are a must here! They are so filling and almost a full meal on their own. The burgers here are alright, but I've had better.

    So apparently all their ice cream and shakes are lactose-free. Just make sure if you get a shake to say no whipped cream.

    Try the chicken sandwich. It's often a last minute decision as to which I'll have.

    Puanına göre beklentiyi çok yükseltince biraz hayal kırıklığı oldu. Burgerlar çok büyük ve çok doyurucu ama harika denemez. Yer küçük, içerisi çok hijyenik sayılmaz.
