I must confess, this has been the third time I have been to this On It franchise and to be fair, every single time the location has hit it out of the park! And you know what? I’m grateful that there is one so close to where I live.
Location
The challenge with the location is that it is smack bang near a major intersection. And trying to get into the place is a crazy endeavour in itself.
However, if I were you, I would go down the next street (Gifford Avenue) and turn in from there. Much, much safer.
Food
Alright, the food itself was epic. I chose to get the Ultimate On It – Single which comes with: 150 gms of short rib brisket grass fed chuck with smoky on it sauce, tomato, lettuce, pickles, red onion, melted American cheese, jalapenos, bacon and avocado.
My LAWD this deliciouseness did not even fit into my mouth. I could almost imagine what the double would have been like. This was so filling and delicious, that I knew I had to try it twice now.
Then, if you are looking at chips, there are only two on the menu that I recommend: Truffle and Parmesan and Devil’s Dust. And in that order too.
The fries as they stand are amazing. But the truffle and parmesan are an epic match up. I think Truffle by itself… is mmm hmm.
The Devil’s Dust is the right kind of spice – not too much and just right. I think it’s cayenne pepper and paprika – a solid combination and not one to be sneezed at (haha, get it… sneezed at… I know, I crack myself up too).
I had the salted caramel shake and gawd damn… I should have just walked home from the restaurant and taken the long way around. As for the shake… HELL YES!
TDT: 2.0/2.0
Cost
Yeah, look this didn’t come cheap. The Ultimate single is $18.40, the large Truffle and Parmesan fries is $6.95 and the small shake is $4.90. The taste made it, but the cost is a little on the high side.
TDT: 0.5/1.0
Ambiance
I loved the place. And after their recent refurbishment, I liked the insides. It was always buzzing with people and I really hope it never dies!
TDT: 1.0/1.0
Service
I found their service to be a little slower than expected but this was becauce they were busy. I’m holding them to a lot higher standards because, they actually can deliver.
TDT: 0.5/1.0
Simply? Just go there. The burgers are pretty damn good!
