The Lunch Box

Great place to eat. Local atmosphere and great food. Staff was super sweet and eager to please. We will be back next time we are in the area.

Pretty Good but Beware - Cash OnlyInteresting hole in the wall. Looks like a Southern or Deep South Restaurant/bar from the 60 or 70's. Walk in and seat yourself with booths on the left, a long lunch counter on the right and it leads to a more traditional dining area in the back.My server was there shortly and gave me a menu while she took my drink order. Keep in mind that there was only one server for the entire restaurant.Not a large menu but focused on normal burgers, hot dogs and sandwiches although the Friday Special was Fish.Been awhile since I've had a BLT but that appealed to me so I ordered that and tater tots as a side.She came back in about 5 minutes to ask if I wanted Mayo on the Sandwich to which I answered yes. Another 5 minutes and here came my lunch.To me, the BLT along with a Tomato Sandwich made with a tomato fresh off the vine are the two epitomes of great sandwiches. My two favorites.To be honest, I was expected somewhat of a let down due to tomatoes on the BLT being out of season but surprise,.. I was pleasantly surprised.The sandwich was great and the certainly did not skimp on the bacon.Very good sandwich in a reasonable amount of timeOnly downside to the whole meal, I never did get a fork to eat my tater tots with but in this case, tater tots became finger food.Interesting experience and I will be back but I have to plan it when I have cash on hand. I've gotten into the habit of not carrying cash other than just a couple of dollars so I need to plan ahead.

Once again, I find myself in the circumstance of having been lured to a burger joint by positive reviews only to find that the food is just not very good. I am loath to impugn the reviews of other Yelpers, but I don't know what they are tasting. Here is my experience:I ordered a cheeseburger and hot dog, both all the way. When I took a bite of the burger, the waterfall of slaw liquid that flowed out was shocking. By the time I was even half done, the bun was so soggy it induced a gag reflex. I will say that the burger patty was nice sized, juicy, and had a good (but not great) taste. As for the hot dog, the first bite overwhelmed me with an odd chemical flavor. I attempted to locate the source, but when sampled separately, the dog, chili, and slaw were ok tasting. But together they tasted weird. Strange, but I just don't know how else to explain it. The sweet tea was among the worst I've had. I've had better sweet tea in Miami, and believe me, Miami is a place where sweet tea is generally not known. It was not sweet enough and had barely detectable tea flavor, as if one small tea bag was used for an entire vat of tea. Crinkle fries were good, for what that's worth. Dark inside, it is not a cheerful place at all. The server was very nice but was flying solo and was completely overwhelmed. I had to go find my own Texas Pete and never could get more napkins--the few I was offered suffered a quick death at the hands of the sloppy burger. Go elsewhere. I have several 4 and 5 star burger joints in my reviews.

This is a old ma and pa spot the only reason they don't get a 5 because they don't take plastic . The food is handmade and no processed food definitely would recommend if in the area

Wow don't judge a book by its cover this place was amazing burgers were excellent!The potato wedges onion rings and burger everything was perfect!Would definitely come back!

Stop here and eat!!!I have been CRAVING their cheeseburger every day since I stopped. I am a VERY seasoned home made diner burger eater. This place makes 'em! I tried calling the phone number to be sure it was still open, the phone number shown was disconnected. Because there were recent reviews I stopped anyway. So glad I did! Guess they serve sandwiches until 5, get there before then. Would love it if they would place their hours so more people could enjoy their food without worrying if they were going on a boondoggle.

Cold beer, great hamburgers, down home menu!Service and hospitality were really great. Atmosphere was a little cozy and friendly.

Very good local place to eat. They have daily specials like to choose from. It was wonderful, but it's hard to break from my favorite dish. The mushroom and Swiss burger with bacon with a side of tots. Don't let the age of the building put you off. The cooking is top notch. This restaurant has been in the area for a long time. Give it a try.

Good food, authentic people. Ordered sweet tea and she put the whole pitcher by my glass. Delicious bacon cheeseburger any way you want. Ordered tots but got fries...oh well. My husband got the daily special and cleaned his plate. The outside is off-putting and they keep most of the lights off inside but the food it good. CASH ONLY!

I have been past this little place so many times and have said "I need to go there". Today was that day, and OMGoodness it was great. The staff was so friendly and on top of it. The fish plate was great. Prices are very reasonable. It is an older building and the inside is a little on the dark side but they made you feel so welcome. I will be eating lunch here more often for sure.
