Orders are called in from the booths on a telephone. A server brings the drinks, but the food is delivered by "Skat Cat" on the overhead track. A mechanical arm stops your order at the platform above your table, which then lowers to deliver your food. This rig is a bit noisy and everyone watches when a meal is delivered. Burgers are the main feature of the menu, with 11 to choose from. They are rather small, but options with 2 or 3 patties are available. Other choices include various hot dogs; grilled chicken, tenderloin and fish sandwiches; or grilled cheese. The prices are average. A single burger, small fries and shake runs $6 with tax. Lil Engineers 12 and under can choose from 5 combinations at $3.99. The food is mostly average (about what you get at a drive-in), with two exceptions: the chili and the shakes. The shakes are hand made and good, though there are only 4 or 5 flavors to choose from. The chili is very meaty (about like a sloppy Joe) and has few beans. It is spicy but not too "hot." 3 stars out of 4. I wouldn't make a special trip to visit Fritz's, but it is fun for a quick lunch or snack. Keith Stokes |
