"Ordered the Gouda Burger and added bacon. As soon as I opened it I was not impressed. The fries are basic, frozen fries. The burger had no condiments or lettuce on it. Sautéed mushrooms apparently means 3 mushroom slices, and the bacon I paid $5 to add definitely had been sitting around for a few hours and was pretty oily, tough, and sparse. Definitely not worth the money. "
