Last week, Lee and I visited another burger joint on the list. The Kingsman in cayce (online review here). The Kingsman is famous for its Ribeye, in fact I think it just won another award in the Free Times for the Ribeye. Anyway, we enjoyed the environment in the past, so we decided to check out the burgers.
Lee ordered the cheeseburger all the way (- pickles), fries, sweet tea. I followed that up with a bacon cheddar burger with onion rings and a diet coke. The burger here was pretty good. Could have been a little thicker, but even with the small burger it didnt get lost in all of the toppings. I thought the cheddar added a unique and tasty twist to my burger. The onion rings were average. I think becuase I saw the guy throw them in the fryer from a frozen bag hurt (I know most onion rings are frozen but seeing it just lost something for me). They needed to be cooked a little longer as well. The fries were crisp and hot, but the striaght from the bag variety. Lee reported that the tea wasnt great and this trip I didnt tempt fate with a desert.
The atmosphere has a good diner feel. They have a bar top right in front of the griddle right as you walk in the door. They also have a sit down section in the back of the restaurant. Of course we picked the bar top and got to watch some MMA on the tv as the cook prepared our meal. Service was good and friendly. We did get to talk to some of the wait staff and the cook about the restaurant and our previous experiences with the place which was a plus. Overall a good burger with a good atmosphere, could improve on the sides, but a good place to stop for that community dive feel. Ratings:
