MANDERS 22

I met my friend for lunch today. The food is great. Everything was cooked to order and came out hot and fresh, including fries. My friend had the speedy and the beignets. She said it was delicious. The chicken was perfect and the bread was soft. I ordered a double trouble, shoestring fries and a cookie. The staff are great, accommodating, care about your experience. We enjoyed our meal. I’ll be returning soon to try more menu items.

We were really hoping for a good experience considering the plethora of positive reviews and the fact that two sandwich combos totaled $42. The staff are friendly enough, but my wife’s sandwich didn’t have much in it and the chicken pieces were super dry. My burger was good enough, definitely not worth the price though. Probably won’t be back.

Rather go to Culvers. The speidie sandwich (traditional) is nothing special. I could easily marinate chicken in Greek yogurt with some Italian seasonings and lemon and oil and get the same results. It was weak as well. Served on a hotdog like roll with some kind of sauce...that's the speidie. Like I said nothing special. Smash burgers were excellent in my opinion but Culvers are very close and $3 cheaper (double deuce at Manders is $11 and double butter burger at Culvers $8). And you can get cheese sauce for your fries at culvers (the sauce next to the fries in the picture is their Manders sauce). I just dont think it was excellent enough to skip the savings at Culvers. Sorry Manders 22! Our order was $40.
