My wife and I decided to give this establishment a try on New Years Eve and we certainly weren't disappointed. From friendly greeting on entering to customer service they definitely have true home down friendly down pat. The food was exceptional. Even the owner stepped out to make sure everything was perfect. Have to agree with, "If you leave hungry, it's your own fault". Can see why they have been voted the Best Burgers in Rutherford County for year running, a title they have earned and most definitely deserve. It was like stepping back in time when things were processed and frozen and there was actually juicy flavor to your patty and real fries. They have more than just burgers; check out their menu, visit them on Facebook and stop in and grab really good offerings.

They've been awarded best Hot Dogs in the county for half a decade now and it's well deserved. I've been all over the world and i've never had better hot dogs.
Unfortunately i haven't had the opportunity to try the rest of the menu yet but I guarantee you Jesse, the owner won't disappoint with anything he offers

First visit. Great little restaurant. Pimento burger was excellent. The fries were crispy the way they are supposed to be. The staff was friendly. Definitely coming back.

The service was awesome. The hotdogs we got were alright, but the chili or the slaw was too sweet. Haven't figured out which it was, or both. The club sandwich is awesome. The milkshakes are the best thing ever!

Everything was delicious!!! The hot dogs were the best I've had in a long time. The macaroni bacon cheeseburger was excellent!!! Everyone that worked there were very friendly! If you get a chance to stop by, you'll be glad you did!

If you want high quality fresh made American fare this is your place. Now it's small however if it's a nice day they do have outdoor seating. They also have about 12 to maybe 15 places to sit an eat indoors. Very clean and super nice folks. The food is just awesome again it's burgers, dogs, chicken and fish sandwiches great fries. They do have a drive up window and the ability to order ahead which I recommend. They cook to order so don't expect instant food. Oh and be polite to the employees Jesse does his best to staff his place however like many businesses today finding folks to show up and actually work is difficult. It's a favorite of many locals you will add it to your favorites list as well.

Stopped here because we got a little lost on our way to Saluda and Hendersonville. The burgers were delicious, the place is tiny but it was super fun! Our meal left us So satisfied we weren't even able to eat dinner when we got to our destination! Lots of railroad memorabilia, really worth a visit!

LOVED this place! Great customer service, food was out fast, fresh and hot.
The grilled Hershey’s & PB sandwich was amazing.
The big express was the best burger I’ve had 😋

This place is unbelievable. I expected a Mom and Pop burger shop with slightly over-priced but generally very tasty burgers and fries. What I got far exceeded my expectations. The menu had an incredible diversity of options it was difficult to choose one. I ended up getting the Mac N Cheese burger and it was out of this world. For desert I got an ice cream filled doughnut. I would definitely recommend. Mr. James himself actually came out and talked to us for a while so that was really cool. If you come to this place, expect to pay good amount of money, but it will be worth every dollar. The only issue with the place is the size, it can get a bit crowded.
