Food cold. No salt at all. Service slow. Not what I expected.

Was my first time eating here and I was excited considering the popularity, it was "good" but wasn't what I expected. Nothing was salted & was very bland. I still prefer The Clock & Rush's burgers/fries.

My husband grew up going to the Beacon whenever he would visit his grandparents. He said the food took him back in time and was as good as he remembered.
