“ Dean's been the spot since early 90s (I can not remember the late 80s) food is top tier, prices in today's economy are very reasonable, the employees are kind and make the food correctly, the entire building was very clean. Best Cherry RC in the world! God bless the owners and employees. I pray they have a booming business for as long as they wish ”
“ I have been going to Dean's for over 30 years. Great old fashioned drive in. Good food...you can watch them prepare your order. Gotta try the butter and garlic fries...the best. Please don't tell my cardiologist though. ”
“ Went here on a whim. Glad I did . Extremely good hamburgers and French fries. I also had a shake. It only cost 25 for 2 people to eat , normally it cost us 35 to 40 for that basic order. I most definitely will be back here again. Staff was very friendly when taking my order. Nice guy. Thank you! ”
“ Loved them before. Now the last 2 times they can't get the orders correct. Last time ordered over the phone got the wrong sandwich. Today stood there and placed my order they still messed it up. 2 sub sandwiches???? How hard is that? I work at a restaurant. It's not that hard to make a sub and get it correct. Think we won't be going there for a long time. Pretty sad can't find people who know how to work. ”
“ Best garlic fries around. More food for your dollar. Fast food is overpriced and quantity of food you get here is outstanding. Plenty of room for large family dining. ”
“ This is one of the 1st places I should have made a review because I have been coming here for a very very long time.. It has the best garlic butter cheese fries you will ever try the seasoning is so perfect if you get the fries well done because the cheese will then not make the fries soft... Their gyros are amazing, they have amazing subs, they have amazing fair prices!!!! I highly recommend ,been coming here for about 15 years... never disappoints.. ”
