    Very fun atmosphere overall. I surprised my kids, they thought we were really getting our TV repaired! I wish the burgers/sandwiches came with sides though, that's my only complaint.

    Super fun experience from entering the building to the secret password to the very funky drinks to the delicious food. Burgers were quite small but everyone filled up on their milkshakes and shareable sides. Fun place to relive the 80s and 90s. Even the kids enjoyed it!

    They brought my daughter’s burger with the works but she only asked for cheese & bacon. The server fantasticly rectified the situation by having the kitchen remake the burger. The burger came back quickly even before the rest of us were anywhere close to being finished. That’s what I call great customer service in a world where it sometimes doesn’t happen. We definitely will come visit again.

    Fun experience and friendly staff. The build your own boozy shake creation is a real treat! We ate lunch around 2 pm and never needed any dinner. Will be back.

    Totally fun and unique atmosphere! Food is a la cart and we ordered a burger and hot chicken sandwich with onion rings. It was underwhelming and the chicken was a weird, flat, patty. But the service & 10 cent martinis more than made up for it.

    I had such a great time! The service was wonderful and our food was out extremely quick. The Yoshi milkshake was the right balance of ice cream and alcohol. The fruity pebble was waffle was delicious.

    It was a fun experience. The only downfall is it was crowded, and you couldn't hear each other across the table. The food was great, and the service was amazing. Also, how the drinks served added to the fun.
    Don's TV & RepairResponded 7 days ago
    Hi there, thank you so much for the feedback! We are always happy when someone chooses to spend their evening with us at Don's. It can definitely get cozy in the repair shop, because it's such a small space! But we like "the more, the merrier" philosophy! ;) We hope to see you again soon! Cheers, The Repair Team from Don's

    Very fun, nostalgic, and great for dates/birthdays. Burgers and fries were great. Skip the chicken dishes.
    Don's TV & RepairResponded 7 days ago
    Hi Emily, and thank you for choosing to dine with us at Don's! We appreciate your feedback and we're glad you enjoyed your time with us. We're sorry to hear about the chicken; we marinade and bread it here in house, so we would like to hear if something was off! We really want the opportunity to make things right. Please reach out to us here with a best contact email as we would like to talk more about your experience. Again we appreciate you choosing to dine with us and hope to talk soon. Cheers, The TV Repair Team at Don’s
