Tim DengJuly 29, 2015These were the best burgers I have ever had in my entire life. They were also the most expensive burgers I have ever had in my entire life. Lots of choice.- Vrutti VyasFebruary 11, 2017Awesome veg burger salad bowl! One of the very few places that has good vegetarian burger! Thank you!!
Sandra LealAugust 25, 2014Build-a-burger. Kind of like Chipotle but they charge extra for just about everything. Burger + fries + drink w/ no extras is $17.00 ish.Upvoted 1 week ago
TheDLJune 6, 2014Here's a tip: have fun finding a table to sit and eat at. There 5 ... FIVE in the entire gate area.- Jeff ParkerFebruary 24, 2015Great fast food burger and fries. (Better than in-and-out.) Fast. Easy. Good service.
- GloJuly 1, 2015I like the 50/50 fries - half regular, half sweet potato. But looks more 60/40 in my batch
Jeremiah Weeden-WrightDecember 5, 2013Everything costs a dollar more (including removing a bun for a salad) and it's even overly expensive for airport food. Small terminal with captive audience though, they can do what they want.
Justin LisenbyAugust 29, 2023Chicken sandwich and sweet potato fries were pretty good, especially for airport food.
Albino From AboutDecember 31, 2023Pretty disappointing breakfast burrito. We're 19mi from the border and you can't get chorizo. Jimmy Dean Breakfast sausage does not cut it.
Steven KayeJanuary 14, 2016I'm a man of simple tastes - no cheese, julienned romaine, sliced red onion, jalapeno, ketchup.
Rod BowndsNovember 20, 2013Assembly line burgers and more... Seating is hard but though busy there was standing room at the counter that was just fine.
Jody CadieuxJanuary 27, 2014They charge extra for no bun and lettuce bowl. And it's not listed in their pricing...bad business the counter. You have lost a customer.
