    Only eat hamburgers and sweet potato fries in here. Hamburgers are average, but generally served warm, even close to be cold. Beers are awful. Desserts are awful. They couldn't cook ribs. It was huge but very very dry. There aren't even real onions in onion rings but it is 4,50 euro. 3 or 4 months ago everything was better than this. Just staff is nice. However we don't think to eat here again.

    We ordered the ribs and chicken wings combination with blue cheese, barbecue sauce and wedges. The ribs and chicken was bland and dry with little taste. The over all impression was that the food was old and cheap quality. The sauces were watery and unflavoured, especially the blue cheese dip which was mixed with sourcream or something similar that made it very tasteless. The restaurant itself was not very clean and the staff was careless and sometimes rude. We were really disapointed because the restaurant had such good reviews and even though the prices were not too high it's still expensive compared to the quality you get. You can get much better food for those prices even in the supermarket. We will not be coming back here and will advise others not to.

    "In my Opinion " having eaten Angus beef hamburgers this did "Not" meet the American standard in taste. Angus burgers don't need bacon,cheese,mushrooms or vegetables to enhance the taste of the meat. I didn't see any onions, A1 steak sauce, or any condiments on the table other than the little bit of mustard and mayonnaise on the bun. A claim of being American tasting needs to be backed up with "Taste". A friendly greeting or smile is very important in any nationality. Asking a customer if they have a reservation should be advertised to avoid causing the unwanted feeling that I felt. As an American I expect to be welcomed to compare and ask for the opinion of how close the taste was to the German vs American hamburger. American burgers have lettuce,onions and 🍅 slices with dilled pickles,not sweet pickles. I realize that cows are fed different in both countries but seasoning used by Americans can and do enhance the flavor of the meat. Again, a smile and and a welcoming atmosphere go a long way to sending more American customers to this restaurant.

    The Resturant offers really nice burgers with a variety of side dishes. The Angus burger is juicy, tasty and filling. Fries were on the spot both the French fries and the sweet potato fries. Drinks are also good. Staff are super friendly and quite helpful. Prices are ok but a little bit on the high side. The things that I didn’t like in the Resturant was the hygiene standards in the restaurant was below average, or even on the dirty side. The floor was pretty, dirty, oily and there were food rests on the floor. The leather seatings where I sat had a leftover lollipop, the table was not clean enough. Under the table there was a spoon with dry chocolate over… which makes me question if the kitchen is clean in the first place. I think the management should look into cleanses as a top priority. Parking spots are pretty hard to find as well.

    We loved it! The spareribs were some of the best I've ever had and the italian burger very yummy. Great service and almost no waiting time. We'll be back.

    We went here for lunch ordered the vegetarian burgers, fries and grapes soda. Everything was good. Service was quick and we got a seat quickly without reservation

    The food gives you that American comforting feeling. I was able to order A&W Rootbeer Float which I haven’t had for years. The waitress with the long braided hair is super lovely and hospitable. We will definitely come back 🥰

    Almost like an American Diner. Great food and service but too quiet! Where's the music? Also, where's the coffee refills? 🙈 Will still be back tho bec I loved the ribs.

  • 1/5 Hase I. 5 months ago on Google
    The place was nice, but...wouldn't go there again! - itnis is anything but the U.S way of burger, if you're into them - don't go - processed burger patties is the least you want in a diner - the shakes are a rip-off too: not as big as shown nor dressed up as shown. Raffaello shake without Raffaello on top w.t.f - staff doesn't care...smashed burgers? No clue about - the OGs left this place ages ago it seems

    We went there without reservation, but everything went fine. The drinks came right away and the food came after a short time. The grill plate was perfect! The service and personnel were also very good. Totally recommended!

    Very friendly staff, ***breakfast everyday!, kids coloring menu and colors, big and lots of space for families, lots of random decorations to entertain kids, food pretty good!

  • 3/5 Edo M. 1 year ago on Google
    In my opinion, this is a miss. The atmosphere is OK, similar to 'a diner', not exactly but also not too tacky. Fine. But the food... I must admit, I was disappointed. I had a cheeseburger. The bun was good. Probably bought from a baker. But the burger, I have a very strong feeling, based on the springy consistency of the meat and the dull flavor, that it was store bought, probably frozen patty. This, for me, is unacceptable in any place other than McDonald's, where you pay accordingly. 10-15 €is OK, but I expect them to be making their own patties. The Burger was just mediocre. Prices are OK, but actually considering the quality, I'd say it's over priced. To charge extra for mayonnaise, in a restaurant, where you pay ca. 15-18€ for a burger+side+drink, is just unjustified.

    Really tasty food. I had ordered bbq ribs and was impressed. Quantity was also more than enough.Service is a little slow because of how busy and crowded the place is. Overall pretty good

    The food is amazing & vegetarian friendly! Eating In as well as takeout is excellent :) Highly recommend!

  • 5/5 Milt D. 1 year ago on Google
    Fast & friendly service. Food was good and fresh. Good assortment of drinks available.

  • 2/5 Billy C. 1 year ago on Google
    If you are expecting good American Diner food, you’ll be disappointed. You would get the same (or better) quality if you get wings, burgers and fries from the freezer at the supermarket. Coleslaw was awful. Looks kinda cool, but don’t have high expectations for your food. All in all: Nothing special.

    This food takes you. Still to order everything on the menu to find something that’s not amazing. See ya soon

    I'm not sure if he's the owner, but the first was so lovely! He moved us to a booth and we had a fantastic experience. We loved the Mexican veggie burger, cornbread, salad, really everything. The fries were so delicious. Reminded me of home! Definitely coming back!

    Great place to eat...stuff is friendly and food very delicious...price is also OK...you have two options for burgers - normal one with 180 grams of meat or doubled...

    One of the best burgers 🍔 i had in Mannheim. Staff could be more friendly. Altogether amazing food.

  • 5/5 Arp-Leonhard R. 1 year ago on Google
    Good service, nice burgers and milkshakes. If you like to stop by an American style diner on your way home after a long day's work, this is the place to go.

  • 4/5 Helena M. 2 years ago on Google
    I liked the burger, fries and milkshake that I had and the starter plate with a selection of some starters (wings, onion rings, ribs) was good as well. I wasn’t a fan of the nachos they served on the starter plate, they were not crispy enough and very thin. I had the farm burger with fries.

  • 3/5 Satoko H. 5 years ago on Google
    Meat temperature on the Burger was not correct, food was barely warm and the lemonade wasn't really cold. basically all is tasty but some minor flaws really hold it back. service was very enjoyable and fun.

  • 5/5 Hungry S. 3 years ago on Google
    One Burger please for the lovely lady and me before we go to the sauna! Thanks sweetie and don't forget the ice tea with ice cubes and maybe a Dr pepper or vanilla root beer for the road! Good ol times.
