This place combines high quality food with drive-thru convenience.
The cook comes in every morning to chop fresh potatoes into fries, the meat is grilled over an open flame with mesquite wood, and they have some fancier items like Ribeye steaks and Ahi Tuna available (fyi, I used to work here - no, I didn't get paid for this recommendation lol).
It'll cost you almost $10 for a burger, but the point is this is definitely NOT McDonalds.
