The service was good. I like sitting in my car more than going inside. The staff were friendly. The food comes out quick and hot. I just wish it was more seasoned.

Came for a quick lunch break and the service was quick. Co workers and I got burgers, tater tots and mozzarella sticks. Everything was great! Burgers were delicious! Co workers are already talking about coming back to this place!

This place is like going back into the 1960's drive in and has lots of nostalgia where you can drive up and eat from the car. We were seeing how close we could get to to Mt. Rainier and you drive right by Wally's on the way. From the street view it's very inviting and stop by and seems like you're going "Back to the Future" by having a burger, coke and wrinkle fried potato's.

Had a corn dog craving so my buddy and I set off for Buckley from Kent. Two retirees with food on their minds. A half hour drive through the back roads we arrived. Surprise! It was the old fashioned drive in with stalls to park and order. We opted to go in and there was seating for maybe 25-30 in 50's era decor( right up these two geezers alley) They had all you can eat fish n chips, coke slaw and chowder special so Mike went for that but I had my heart set on a corn dog with onion rings. It was amazingly good, in fact I ordered another. I did get a taste of the fish and, just like its affiliate Wally's in Des Moines, it was the bomb! Crispy on the outside, light moist and flaky on the inside. The fries were some of the best I've tasted. Mike said the chowder was also excellent. I would be remiss in not giving kudos to the young man who helped us out. He was friendly, jovial and put smiles on our faces. The business was super clean as were the bathrooms. Definitely worth the drive. Highly recommended!

Decent bacon cheeseburger. Should have asked for ketchup - shake was good. The deep fried mushrooms were delicious. Nice to sit in my car and eat.

What a fun, old fashioned burger place! You can drive up and order from a cute menu box. So cool to see this type of restaurant, as there are fewer and fewer these days! We both got the cheeseburger and onion rings. The burger was delicious and cooked well. The onion rings were the perfect amount of breading, crispy and delicious! The people that work there are kind, efficient, and friendly! The restaurant was so busy, they were all working so hard. Thank you for your hard work, delicious food, and fun experience!
