“ Delicious Burgers By the Butte! Hungry after scaling the Bodenburg Butte? This is the place for you. Photos include the menu. ”
“ Food that’s worth the drive!! Massive, juicy, and delicious. Best grilled chicken sandwich I’ve ever had YUM! ”
“ I didn’t expect greatness. Honestly, I expected grease stains and regret. But what I got out of that unassuming brown paper bag was nothing short of a culinary uppercut to the soul. First off—the smell. Like someone grilled God’s own lunch behind a dive bar and wrapped it in nostalgia. And that patty? This wasn’t your frozen hockey puck pretending to be beef. This thing was juicy, thick, and seasoned like whoever made it had feelings for cows. The first bite exploded with beefy, smoky, slightly-salty magic. You know that moment when you stop chewing mid-bite just to process what’s happening? That. The cheese was molten. Not melted—molten. It clung to everything in the best way, daring gravity to ruin your shirt. Spoiler: it probably will. Worth it. A little crunch from pickles with just the right vinegar snap, onions that had been either grilled or whispered to by angels, and a sauce I can only describe as “what Big Macs dream of becoming when they grow up.” No fancy plate. No craft cocktail. Just a grease-kissed brown bag that said, “I don’t need presentation—I have flavor.” Final Verdict: If you ever find yourself handed a burger from a brown paper bag, take it. Eat it. Let it ruin every other burger for you. This wasn’t fast food. It was fast transcendence. ”
“ This photo doesn't do this justice, this burger was massive! It was so delicious, but I couldn't even finish half of it. The fries were good, too. Reminded me of McDonald's fries back when they used to be delicious. ”
“ I’m from Texas and just moved to Alaska. This is one of the best burgers I’ve had in a long time. Can’t wait to go back. ”
“ Such a great stop if you're hungry and in the area. The food is fresh and delicious, and they're pretty quick at making it. The prices are more than fair for the great quality food and amount you'll get. The burgers are no joke! The halibut and chips are always delicious. You will be plenty full for a great price. I love this spot! ”
“ The sign might be a little faded, but the service is great! The staff was friendly and kind. We had a large order so it took a little bit of time, but not longer than expected. Everything was cooked to order and correctly assembled. We have a couple of picky eaters... Food was great! Crispy fries and onion rings! Delicious burgers! Good portion sizes! They had a variety of canned soda too. The view is great and location was easy to find! Thank you for a wonderful lunch!! ”
“ The gentleman who waited on me was very kind. Awesome onion rings! The burgers are huge! ”
