“ Awesome joint, wonderful and fun staff, good classic get your hands dirty burger and fries. Not the place to go for your diet, but definitely the place to go when you feel like you're so hungry you could eat the town. ”
“ The go-to place for a classic made cheese burger. Love the R-B Special burger with grill onions. Sandwich includes patty, pickles, lettuce, tomato, onion (grill on request) cheese, and ketchup. Their fries are always quite delicious! Pretty busy place as our wait was 40 minutes. But that gives you time to check our all the Hutchinson memorabilia inside. A side note, there doesn't seem to be a restroom available for use. Their onion rings are fantastic, available on certain days. ”
“ Good luck getting a seat inside. It is a small venue. The burgers are awesome, and the staff work hard. Please support the Johnson family as they help out our community. ”
“ Son and I have been teaming up to donate Power Reds for the American Red Cross for about 3 years now. Afterwards, I took him out for lunch/dinner before he headed off for work - great food and a t-shirt for him later - we had a good afternoon! They were blasted with door dash, call ins and walk-ins like us, to the tune of 30 minutes, but hands down best hamburgers in town (and it was onion ring day too, so BONUS!) ”
“ ***** for deliciousness!! ***** for the fun,retro atmosphere!! We had the belt buster! It was so good! 6 of us split it! They're HUGE! The fries were tasty! We really enjoyed lunch! Downside is the wait, we did have to wait close to an hour. We saw several people come in and pick up their called ahead order, that would probably be the way to do it! Update: came again this New Year’s week all the way from FL and R-B still does it the best!!! ”
“ Absolutely delicious hidden gem. Service is always amazing and food is always delectable. The limeades, fried mushrooms, and burgers are top tier. Yes, you will have to wait a bit for your food, but they make everything to order and it is so so worth it. ”
“ Amazing place! Delicious food, fast friendly service, and at very reasonable prices! ”
“ It's hard to describe the feeling of eating here. The food tastes great but don't expect any healthy options! That's not why you go here! This is your classic greasy spoon drive in that reminds me of decades before. You need to stop by here and grab something, whether you use the drive in bay or eat inside. Don't skip it, grab a 3 pound Belt Buster burger if you dare! ”
