Not the best burger...

by flacco at Citysearch

Not the best burger, but pretty damn good. I especially like the portobello mushroom burger. The place tries to be cool with its lower lighting and colors, but it kind of clashes with it's skater boy host and server. The service took a little bit long even thought the place was not quite full. Also, the place ran out of salad dressing that they usually have.

Go for the Fries!

by sgallagher77 at Citysearch

I always felt bad for Darla's, since I had never seen them busy, at the most 3 tables full, so I decided to stop in one night. The burgers were decent, the salad that came with was fair, but the fries were phenominal! crisp, buttery fries, with just enough salt. Definitely worth it for the fries alone.

• Pros: Friendly, Fries!, usually empty
• Cons: parking

Darla's ROCKS!

by EKG at Citysearch

I've eaten here several times and brought friends who will try anything and friends who are very picky and Darla's has come through every time. Their burgers are big and juicy and don't make you feel like your arteries are clogging from grease afterwards. Their Rib Eye was a healthy slabs that I ate half and has the rest for lunch the next day. I'd be more inclined to try a dessert, but Darla gives you a brownie with the check and after all the food that was all I could eat! The only thing that would make it better is if the parking was easier.

• Pros: Food is great, Service is great, Price is good
• Cons: Parking sucks

Darla - is just DAHLING

by jgkastner at Citysearch

Have frequented Darla's for quite awhile now (since right after she opened). This is definitely an up and coming spot...and she is building staff and menu as she goes. We told her she should have Mimosa's on Sunday's...and sure enough - there they were! She is open and receptive. The food - it's cheap and it's good. If you want glamour and glitz - go elsewhere...but you get what you go for. She is always sweet and nice and just a pleasure to joke with and be friendly to. The chicken sandwich is excellent - and the omelettes - goodness they are big...and chock full of what the menu says will be in it. A good bang for your buck

• Pros: Price, Comfort, Food
• Cons: Location

bad service

by luckybutt at Citysearch

They are suppose to have the best caesar salad. The portion was small, lettuce was limp, and to top it off the service was bad. After not getting some of the items that were ordered, we reminded her that we had some additional. And she replied OH?..and acted like it was our fault. The waitress with the brown short hair was very rude. I would not go back again for the limp salad and rude waitperson.

• Pros: not crowded
• Cons: rude service, limp salad, small portions

best burgers not a lie

by jlshock at Citysearch

The sign outside says possibly the best burgers around and the food lived up to the name. I had a burger with cheese and green chile and it was very good.

• Pros: good food, good value, good service

bummer brunch

by Emanangan at Citysearch

I stepped into Darla's for brunch and had a nice peppy server. I ordered the vegetarian omelet with avocado. The food was adequate not generous portions (understandable during recession) HOWEVER the potatoes were undercooked and cold, english muffin (a default choice since they didn't have "homemade muffins" as stated on menu) was cold, the server never returned with hot sauce(only the tabasco brand) and ketchup (I got it myself). THE WORST PART:There were bits of bacon hidden in the veggie topping (of half raw mushrooms and poorly cut tomatoes) on my omelet-- it was supposed to be vegetarian!@ Basically a problem with their brunch cooks-- but a problem nonetheless. Haven't tried them for dinner, but now probably won't.

• Pros: friendly servers, good location
• Cons: slim picks 4 vegetari, small portions
