It&#8217;s an open-air burger joint, where you can grab a booth or sit at the roadside stools and partake in exactly the kind of burgers and chili dogs you would imagine such a place would serve.  <\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a great place to visit during Memorial Day to celebrate the arrival of decent, if not always warm, northeast Ohio weather.
