    Player's days are numbered (probably a pretty big number though). UT bought Player's earlier this year in a $4 million deal, but the owners can keep operating for up to ten years. Read more

    Great burgers. Great atmosphere. Kind of loud and parking is weird but overall great place to eat!

    Order the Jalapeño burger and a half basket of onion rings. Fried pickles are also really good! Make sure you say hey to Ralph!

    The milkshakes here are very good. I recommend every, but I wasn't a big fan of the french fries. Very plain.

    My favorite place for shaved ice? Use the ice machine closest to the TV.

    They serve pizza after they cut off ordering from the full menu, which is nice.
