Its that they come out to you looking like they have been prepared by Hellen Keller. Not really sure what all the rave is about. I'm not really into the setting -crowded, wobbly tables, and having to eat while looking at waiting customers ass's, but OK, it kitschy, their shtick; I get that. Good, heavy pour on the martini's though. I've been there 3x- every time the burger was not done to order. Hint to Terry's: don't ask how you would like the doneness of the burgers if you can't manage the griddle. Just make them all med. or med. well. A well made burger with quality meat can handle it - otherwise you just disappoint your customers. I'm a purist when it comes to burgers. The beef is the star so I don't like saucing it up with something that detracts from the meat - if its good quality you only need the basics. So I didn't really get into the "special sauces". Maybe they are good and that's why people like the place. If you are one into mushroom/wine type sauce, then you might like the place. <br /><br /> The fries. Terry's major downfall. They seem to be more braised in oil than fried. I picked up a french fried and I swear it bowed east towards Mecca. My 10 year old daughter who will eat any French fry wanted chips instead. "Yeah, the fries are not that great", is consistently the response I get from people who say they think they have great burgers. ????? To be a burger place and not having at least decent fries is like going to a French Bistro and having server bring Wonder bread to the table.<br /><br />Somebody help me understand the appeal of this place.fritzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01043957665724710889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-204161098320153978.post-59506017238196291572008-12-05T10:54:00.000-05:002008-12-05T10:54:00.000-05:00I've been meaning to get to Terry's FOREVER.

Heaven on a plate, right?! <BR/><BR/>I've tried several combinations but I think my favorite so far is the red pepper/goat cheese sauce with a topping of portabello mushroom. It's like getting two burgers for the price of one b/c they put a WHOLE portabello cap on top of the burger!laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12104044710814709485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-204161098320153978.post-7416550475062960852008-12-04T16:20:00.000-05:002008-12-04T16:20:00.000-05:00we tried to get in a couple weeks ago and gave up....we tried to get in a couple weeks ago and gave up. <BR/>We're going to have to go earlier next time.5chw4r7zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00635910297238841220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-204161098320153978.post-66028985403327072132008-12-04T11:19:00.000-05:002008-12-04T11:19:00.000-05:00yay! i am so glad you guys went to terry's!yay! i am so glad you guys went to terry's!lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02757412748648257783noreply@blogger.com
