Welcome to 80/20 @ Kaelins. A new take on the classic restaurant where the cheeseburger was created. A neighborhood spot where anyone is welcome. Bring your family and friends and join us. A great place to watch a game or enjoy some family time. Featuring burgers and classic comfort food and drinks. Try out the 80/20 Malt Shoppe for some house made ice cream or a shake with your burger. Grab a bourbon or local brew to enjoy at the indoor/outdoor bar. Have an evening relaxing on our large patio. Maybe throw a party in one of our private dining areas where we can offer custom menus from casual to upscale.
We would love for you to join us. And we look forward to taking care of you.
Thanks,
80/20 @ Kaelins

    The staff were absolutely fabulous. The drinks and milkshakes were great- with inventive flavors. The food was delicious- they are known for the burgers, and they lived up to the name.

    Service was slow, but the manager came and spoke to us. Related that the restaurant had been slammed all day long presumedly due to the Home football game and timing thereof. Offered to comp dessert.  We appreciated the information and will return as this is one of our go to places.

    They have changed their beef quality in their burgers since I was there 6 months ago. Seemed like an expensive fast food burger. Shakes are still good. Fries tasted like onion rings so they definitely didn’t change their grease. Probably won’t go back.

    This was our first time ever dining at Kaelin's, and let me tell you, the burgers are great! Our server was excellent, never had to ask for a refill on my drink, and she was genuinely glad to be of service to my wife and I. We will definitely be back!!
