Loved this place. Fast, convenient, and clean, the food was really good too! Lots of kids options, I made the queso de mayo my way, all vegetarian with tons of extra veggies.

Decent but great at late night because it is one of the very few places open till 1am. Why does everyone in this town sleep so early?!Anyway, ordered a Sicilian chicken sandwich and a Steak Fajita Mac n Cheese.The sandwich was nice, the spicy garlic bread was well toasted and crispy, good seasoning on the chicken too.The steak fajita mac n cheese was just alright. The mac n cheese was a bit too runny and the vegetables were not grilled. Sandwich was great though! Good service time too!Also, the big pickle on the side is not good, very generic. Couldn't take more than two bites. Should replace with some other side... Maybe a pickled carrot ?

Cob salad is huge and fresh. Mushroom burger very flavourful. Fast service.

This shop has decent quality food, it's quick, and it has the latest automated ordering system. It's always clean there, the staff are friendly and the prices are okay. This place is located on the outer perimeter of the north side of Stanford Shopping Center. It's easiest to access this shop from the first road on the north side of the center. Parking can be challenging, depending on the time of day, and it seems to be a safe area.

Very consistent great tasting food!The fries, burgers, grilled cheese, and the soup are all well made.

Recommend this location for their burgers. I really like it and same for all my friends. However the fries have too much garlic on one and a little small portion. But I would definitely come back for the burger, maybe try some other stuff. Oh another thing… if you scared of bird, do not come here to dine in. I am getting heart attack almost half of the time sitting here.. please improve on this, I would love to come back enjoy.

The best fast food i had so far. Everything was delicious and the best part i liked was the pickle they give on the side. You feel good even if its fast food. Good vegetarian and vegan options. Good job guys!

Nice and friendly attention, the food was good, the BBQ Bacon Meltburger with an egg on it is delicious. My favorite fries are the Cheddar Bacon Ranch and the Garlic Parmesan. ?

Ordered a BOGO special three cheese classic burger on Uber Eats and it was quite tasty. Patty was decent size and the cheese was nice and gooey and melty. Disappointed they didn’t come with at least a few standard burger toppings. Not super cheap but plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors.

What a disappointment!I ordered a patty melt and a regular fry.My patty was dry. The sauce wasn't evenly spread so some bites were mild while others were harsh. I would not order that option again.Secondly, the fries. The poor fries! They were less than fresh and very dry.Very disappointed with this place. Unlikely that I will return. I drive up to this area often for work and I am always looking for places to grab food between calls. This one can be scratched off the list.
