The decor is crowded (and overwhelming), the place is loud, and the seats need to be wiped more often. But aside from all that, we keep going back. If you want greasy, tasty burgers and fries, XXX is...

I come here for the rootbeer or for a rootbeer float and for the cool car shows on the weekends in the summer. Burgers are good, but not great. Too bad it's no longer a true drive in, as that was part of the...

Not much needs to be said about this place. It's a great burger joint that has such a classic feel. It feels like you are dining in a burger joint in the 50's or 60's. The burgers are great and have lots of...
