I am a big fan of the location in North Hills, but the Knightdale location still has a few kinks to work out. I have visited numerous times and every time it gets a little better. It's almost as though the grills must get seasoned before turning out a good burger. I generally order a "little" bacon cheeseburger. Most often the burger is put together well with nice, fresh ingredients. The fries need a little help. I think the fry cooks are taking the fries out of the grease before they are ready, creating mushy fries. If they will just cook them a little longer - we could enjoy nice crispy fries! If you get your order to go, I recommend asking them not to salt the fries as the salt will make them much more mushy by the time you get home since they put them in a styrofoam container. CON: and this is a BIG con for this location. The store right next door is a nail salon. The first smell when you walk in is a nail salon! This is NOT appetizing, AT ALL. The nail salon really needs better ventilation so it doesn't leak over to the restaurant.
Pros: Burgers are getting better each time I visit. Lots of fries!!!
Cons: Nail salon next door makes the restaurant smell like a nail salon.
