I love hamburgers and cheeseburgers and had heard the boast that this place had the best burger in the world, hands down. Considering I had already experienced the best cheeseburger in the world, my interest was piqued to see what all the mass hysteria was about over the ""Legend"". My friend and I (who both agree on the best cheeseburger in the world) decided to try the ""Legend"" burger to see if it lived up to the ridiculous hype it has received. Disappointed is far too weak a word to use to describe my reaction.\r
\r
Upon receiving our ""Legends"" my friend and I were greeted by two ""burgers"" wrapped in greasy wax paper. As if the fact that the ""Legend"" was presented to us by the waiter literally TOSSING the greasy mess of a burger in front of us, once we examined the burger further, it was revealed that liquid cheese was used instead of sliced cheese. Not only that, but the fry containers were only about half full when given to us.\r
\r
Then the ill-fated first bite...honestly no better than the burgers served by the school cafeteria in the school at which we work. Definitely a far cry from being ""Legendary"". Very small and bland burger as I recall, especially since the place ridiculously believes that lettuce and tomato have no place on a burger.\r
\r
If you are looking for a robust burger with all the trimmings and good portions, drive yourself 15-20 miles west to Michigan City and go to Schoop's. Schoop's burgers absolutely DESTROY the so-called ""Legend"" in size, lack of grease, presentation, toppings, and most importantly TASTE. Also, food portions are larger and less expensive than Redamak's. \r

The ""Legend"" is a joke...
Pros: Nice parking lot
Cons: Overly-hyped, low-quality ""Legend"" burger
