Hwy 55 Burgers Shakes & Fries

This is my third time vacationing on Emerald Isle, but my first time eating here. Because of the quality of service, the quality of food, and the overall atmosphere, I will be back on future visits.

I had The Moose, which was DELICIOUS and one of the best sandwiches I have ever had in my 30 years. I also love the fact that tater tots are offered.

Lemme tell you a thing or two about Hwy 55. It's a burger restaurant with a good variety of other delicious food like hot dogs, chicken, and surprisingly good shrimp. If you've never been in one, then I HIGHLY recommend this one.

I live here on Emerald Isle but I've been to other Hwy 55's in the past and the quality of this particular one is amazing. Not only is the food great with a neat 50's themed interior, but the staff and service is phenomenal. The waiters and waitresses are incredible and consistent, and the cooks are too, absolutely no one falls short it seems. Ivy, who, in every single time I've been there has given me the best experience at a restaurant I've ever had, consistently. Not only Ivy but everyone who has ever waited on me has been fantastic, not just in their personality but also their work. I've never had a bad experience in the 3 years I've been coming. If I could I would write a review about how amazing every single staff member. Honestly you don't even need to read about it, believe me, when you're there you'll see for yourself.

It's difficult to imagine that a good old fashioned burger joint can provide such an awesome experience. I mean it obviously has I've been here for about 20 minutes writing this review. I suppose this is less of a review and more of a love letter to Hwy 55 and all it's incredible staff including the owners who I have to thank for making this place how great it is. I hope that this was all well worth it and that the people who work here and who decide to go here can get a sense of how amazing of a place this is. I know I do.

Before writing this review I picked up my order and now I'm hungry. I'm gonna go finish my favorite order : A Pimento Cheeseburger w/ Bacon, Grilled Jalapeno & Onion with Fries and 2 cups of mayo.

Never had a bad experience yet here. Too often customer service is never done. Here, even though they are young, I find that the workers here know how to treat you with respect and decency. They also recommend different food items should you not know what you would like, and always the food is super fresh. It is worth the fact that it is a little more expensive because of the excellent customer service that is always given.

This restaurant was amazing. The burger and fries tasted great, my son enjoyed his hot dog and the fold up car with stickers he got. The staff was also amazing. 5 out of 5!!

These folks do a great job with the burgers, shakes, and fries. You can also get kids meals with the food delivered inside small cardboard cars - - 1960s Mustangs and the like. The frozen custard and shakes are excellent. The place has a 1950s decor. It's reasonably clean and well kept. The staff tends to be friendly and responsive. Not a place to go for vegetarian food. Burgers. Shakes. Fries. And a bit more.
