What our guests are saying

Not even gonna lie, this burger was WORTH IT. Had a double, beef patty was perfect, onions were on point, cheese was just the right amount of melty. I live in Lafayette and still think about that burger. Can't wait to get back. Great deco too if you are a retro kid raised in the 80s and 90s. Highly recommend checking them out, they are doing some good work!

Today was me and my son’s first time visiting this establishment. I was beyond impressed. The magicians in the kitchen did their thing! Food came out fast hot and bursting with flavor. I had the 2 classic burger, queso fries with a side of Brussel sprouts and 2 fountain drinks. I spent $46 dollars, it was worth it! The service was great, friendly and inviting staff. Will definitely be back.
