    Get a burger! We enjoyed the 80/20 burger with fries, dark meat chicken with potatoes and biscuit and gravy and a side of onion rings. Our physicians may not approve of that meal but our taste buds and bellies were happy. My husband and I like to order and share so I had a taste of everything. We both thought the burger was the star of the show but enjoyed everything very much. The chicken has a lot of breading and it was seasoned well and super crispy, the biscuit was fluffy and the gravy was well seasoned. The onion rings were well balanced with breeding and a generous portion. The only issue is that I like fries and onion rings fresh from the fryer and I think they came from under a heat lamp. The service was the very best part! As we were still placing our order the onion rings came out to the table, they have an electronic ordering system. There was so much staff working together that everything ran smoothly and quickly. Their Happy Hour can't be beat! We each had two drinks and my cocktail definitely packed a punch at a very reasonable price. We will definitely return to enjoy more of their menu and the Malt Shop attached to the restaurant.

    Was in town for a soccer tournament and found 80/20 is on open table. They had plenty of reservation slots even though they were pretty busy. The food was AMAZING. We got burgers and they were top notch. Prices were good too. The shakes are more $$$ but worth it. Spent about $80 for my daughter and I with both getting burger meals, an app, and shakes for deserts, which I think is VERY reasonable for such good food. Highly recommend. Opened atmosphere and a little loud, but overall fantastic!!!

    Great burgers- I had the original Kaelin’s cheeseburger and my husband had a larger one. Tasty sides- cheese grits & smashed potatoes. They already have good prices for wine, and even better (half price) during 2-6 pm happy hour!
