Best WLM Reviews

I stopped in for lunch. Sat at the bar, it was open to the outside on the opposite side of the bar on a gorgeous day. I really enjoyed the atmosphere here!! Ordered a kaelin 80/20 burger, it was a simply well executed burger! The fries were great also! The service was excellent!! I plan on returning soon!!
I’d give it a 4.5 if I could. I had been to the original Kaelin’s years ago, and didn’t remember much about it, so wanted to try it again after new ownership. They updated the place and it’s got an open seating area and a bar area. You go for the burgers, and the 80/20 Kaelin burger was tasty, but I thought the classic cheeseburger was better. The milkshake was really good as well. The service was fast and friendly.
Enjoyed Kaelin's. I came on burger week with a group of coworkers. My review is a case of wants far more than needs!
I had the southwestern burger that was the special. The flavors were on point, a sweetness, hint of spice, and some sour in the pickled onion - but if I'm honest, I wanted twice the beef on this burger.
The fries were very good. An excellent side, and very solid fries.
The nutter butter chip shake was tasty, but again, can we talk about portion size for a near nine dollar shake? I understand things are higher lately, but I expected a much larger portion for the price.
Our server, John, was personal, gave great recommendations, kept glasses full, and is the kind of server I always want at any dining experience. Excellent work John!
The fried pickles looked strange at first but they were really good. The cheeseburger was really good. I got a chocolate milkshake which was also good and came in a cup to take it home. My stepmom got a wedge salad and liked it.
I went here with my best friend and brother on a whim. Not really knowing what to expect other than what we could gather from a quick glance at the reviews. We certainly left with full bellies and a smile. A tad pricy but the good service, atmosphere, and taste of the food did support the ask mostly. We paid about $32 for our meals and that was with the tip. I got the kaelins original and it was pretty good but I think I liked the grilled cheese brisket better. Food was 8/10.
First time to eat here. Excellent food and service!! I had the meatloaf entree. OMG. So good. We also had burgers and sandwiches. Very good.
Spend $60 for two, average burgers. The waiter killed it, he was wonderful. Soon as my drink got half way boom he was there with a refill. The beer cheese pretzels (bread rool)was served with way too much cheese. We did not eat half of what they gave and I was getting excessive scoop of cheese. I asked for jalapeños on my burger and they don't offer that. The burger was leaking juices everywhere. It was a shame the meat didn't have more flavor. The bun looked fancy. The strawberries milk shake was $8 definitely not worth it Chick-fil-A has better shakes. This place is one and done for us.
We had the pimento cheese and rice appetizer and it wasn’t very good. The mac n cheese also wasn’t very tasty. The shrimp scampi honestly tasted like noodles pulled out of soapy water is the only way I can think to explain it. Brisket and the patty melt were good. French fries are good as well. Wait staff and atmosphere was great though.
