I went to this place for the first time this year and I love the look that they have and how they have enough seating. I had a cheeseburger which was great and I tried my husband's fries and my niece's chicken tenders which were delicious also!!! My husband, sister and I wanted dessert so we ordered three fried dough sundaes once we were done with our meals. When my sister placed the order the girl that was going to prepare them had an attitude and was complaining that we ordered three. I was really upset but patiently waited over 20 minutes for them which was not a problem at all. Once we received them and opened them; they all looked like the picture posted which was upsetting because I think presentation goes a long way. I believe the girl should have waited until the dough cooled down a little bit since she was already not happy then it showed in her presentation. The dough was delicious but I can't really comment about the ice cream yet. No matter what I will try them again when they open back up next year.Parking: There is plenty of parking spots.

It's a '50s style burger joint. Complete with an Elvis statue by the ordering window. Lol. It's a great place though. They're specialty burgers on the absolute best. Definitely got to try their rock and roll burger It's bomb ! They don't skip on portions either. Here, you definitely get what you pay for. They also boast the cheapest lobster roll around. It's only $20 but then again you're only getting like 3 oz of lobster meat. Obviously like anything else the more meat you get the more money It costs. Still $20 for lobster roll is nothing to complain about. One of Taunton's hidden gems. Every time I'm in the area I make a point to stop here. Right on rt 138. Well worth it !

Got the big bopper burger and it looked nothing like the picture. It had No flavor and bland tasting definitely not worth $9.99. Quite disappointed!

The only place to get authentic fried seafood in Taunton. Fish & Chips, fried shrimp/scallops & the loaded sweet fries are delicious!

Overpriced and overrated lobster roll. The fact the Taunton Gazette even had this as a top choice is laughable, if you want a LEGIT good lobster roll for that price you have to go to places like Boston over on columbus ave, Tiverton RI, or Barnstable down the cape ?
