2 mini bergers are $7 now, and those were not good.. It was very disappointing comparing to the price. They were so tiny that they became cold and hard fast. But I can say that onion rings are yummy. I'll go there again to have only onion rings. I sprinkle salt and pepper on them, and eat with mayo. And I pretty enjoyed music played.

Despite the long lines, the service is incredibly fast. This is the only semi-fast food joint I have ever been to that cooks a burger medium to medium-rare. 2 mini-burgers for $5 is good enough for me. They are slightly larger than White Castle sliders and the patties are way more substantial. I also appreciate the lively music in the place. I will certainly go back.

So I went to the uptown branch, and guess what I figured out. Pop is a WHOLE lot better after a few drinks. That had been my experience with them in the MPD location,...and that's what they are perfect for. Satiating that post party hunger pang. Uptown though, snot happenin. The burgers are too small, the lettuce hot and wilted, and nothing is cooked to order. Hot, well done pucks. The crowds are just too nutty, and overall, it was like going back to some alternative/dream version of a place where I had a good time. Except now I was sober.
