Generous portions, well seasoned (not over seasoned), very courteous service under time pressure & walk-up customers, as well as unexpected under staffing. Thank you April's Kitchen. At our house, you're a "do again". ☺️

Burgers needed more fresh fixings (onion, lettuce) All our burgers had a tiny, wilted lettuce piece that we removed. Also the option to opt out of mustard

The food was good but I ordered green beans and got Mac and cheese which I don't eat. Otherwise, your score would be a 5

The burger and onion rings were great, and I loved the alert of when my food was ready so I didn't have to wait in line when I came down to get it!

There were plenty of olives (the add-on) this time, as a higher concentration of meat, which led to a stronger flavor throughout. Thanks!

It’s as they promised, a less messy burger that tastes like a burger. It is a burger! Just less messy.
