Delicious dishes is certainly dirty.  And used to be good.  But the last few times Ive had their chulent I have been very unimpressed.  Holy Shnitzel has Z cholent, which some people love and others dont care for

I'm one of those! It really is a matter of taste.

Traditions and maybe even Burgers have better burgers than ABC (and they are both much cheaper, too).
What kinda burger place will only cook the burgers medium well?! Not sure if that's their policy, but both times I've been to ABC that's what they told me.

When I went there I remember them asking me how Id like them. YMMV.

Burgers wasnt such a fan of but traditions is always pretty much awesome.

Granted the toppings at ABC are fun but the burgers themselves are nothing special.

+ having to pay for fries makes me so angry. Especially if it's like $6.

Burgers is now Mikes Burger (under new ownership/management) and has been getting very good reviews.

I had the bbq brisket tacos from C&G twice. Once they were excellent, the other not so good. I hate not having consistency

One of the reasons I am not such a C&G fan.

The BP on Rockaway, right when you get into the 5 towns has.  So does the Shell station across from Chase.  I think the Sunoco also has.
