It's been 3 years since I've been to this place, and for good reason, because it's out in the middle of nowhere (no offense, but off Exit 49?). It left a pretty good impression, a lot of it I think was the dipping sauces for the fries, they had something called Fry Sauce, branded Chadalee Farms. It's essentially the same as the Campfire Sauce that Red Robin serves with their onion rings. I like it. The burgers are made fresh, though the patties might be of the bulk order, pre-made variety, I know the fries are. This burger joint really isn't a burger joint, but rather a grill inside of the food mart of a Shell gas station. Yeah, I know, how good could gas station food be? But this place was good enough to be memorable. Probably the fry sauce.
Anyways, the patty was a mite on the thin side, essentially, it was a pretty good Whopper with something equivalent to McDonald's special Thousand Island sauce from their Big Mac. The meat quality was not discernibly good or bad, probably because it was so thin, but from what I could tell, it was fairly decent. The bun was a typical sesame bun and the fixings weren't super fresh, there was a good variety though. The sauce was pretty good too, I liked the tang, went well with the pickles. If you're ever driving down to Oregon, it's not a bad place to stop by. Probably something with bacon might've been a good touch.
The fries are kind of run-of-the-mill frozen cringle cut fries, which are good. Ask for fry sauce.
