The overly greasy burgers were stuffed haphazardly into a paper pouch. We had to take them out to put them back together. The lettuce was in poor shape (old). The fries were not fully cooked. The...

My name is Joe and I am the weekend nightshift manager at Frisko Freeze. A lot of the reviews I have read about them are true but some are not. Frisko Freeze was founded in 1950 by Mr. Perry Smith. He...

Okay, the fries are okay. And the burgers are nice and juicy, but with the mediocre staff and the raising prices, why not just go to McDonalds or Burger King?

If you're in Tacoma better head for this retro burger-ette. Not too many left like this one. Like it? Get a t-shirt to mark your visit and you'll get plenty of comments from others who've visited.
