First Food Post!!!
A local twitter buddy of mine, @tonjac has been working her way through downtown Modesto eateries and blogging about it. I, and others, have joined her on occasion. Today, I met her at Charlie Browns, a new burger place located at 14th and J streets..
I liked the space, it seems just large enough for a lunch rush and no larger. There were 8 or so tables and lots of counter space as well. The menu is basically burgers, but they also have soup, salads, and chili. The burgers are a lot like those at In-N-Out. By that I mean that they are very fresh and hand-crafted. It’s the kind of burger that once you pick it up to take a bite, you’re better off not putting it down as the bun or toppings will slide all over the place. To accompany my double burger, I got a soda and a basket of onion rings. The food was good and filling. My total came to a bit under $7.00 which seemed right in the price range I would expect. The servers were very friendly and my order was completed and brought out to me very quickly.
Overall then, I was quite satisfied with the place. I will not say it’s the best burger I’ve ever had. To be honest, I don’t mind previously frozen, machine made patties. In any case, I can happily recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for a quality burger and fast friendly service.
It was also nice to chat with Tonja. J
