I live near this Jasper's and stop in for a burger about twice a month. It's a frustrating experience, because the burgers are good enough - and varied enough, with a dozen specialty options - to keep drawing me back, but the service is very slow. Today, for example, I stopped in for an Ortega Swiss burger and a regular double cheeseburger. They were slightly busy, but not more than any lunch place in the hour after lunch. It took a full half-hour to get my food! I am used to a full ten minute wait even when the place is empty, but this took so long I almost canceled my ($13.00) order. I finally figured out why, after many times observing them: they only prepare one order at a time. There are almost never more than one order's patties on the immense grill - they do each order, start to finish, raw patties to delivered order, before starting the next. If you're not in a hurry, and if you don't mind shelling out close to twice what takeout burgers usually run, Jasper's is great. Their selection of unusual combinations like ortega chiles and cheese is wonderful. But every time I think to go there, I have to decide whether I really have the time and patience for what are, in the end, just good ""roadburgers.:""
Pros: Pretty good burgers with unusual specialties.
Cons: Expensive for ordinary burgers, service slow to very very slow.
