Most Disliked
While Central Park shines in many areas, some patrons note that the menu can feel limited, especially for those seeking healthier options. The absence of robust vegetarian or vegan choices might leave some looking for alternatives. A few reviews suggest that crowds can overwhelm the atmosphere, especially during peak hours like lunchtime on Fridays, which tends to reach full capacity.
Another common concern is that the grilled chicken sandwich, while tasty, may not satisfy those with heartier appetites, as it can be seen as less filling than the burgers. These minor shortcomings don’t overshadow the overall dining experience but are worth noting for newcomers considering their options.

Why not? This place has about the best fries you can find around. I mean it is fast food and fast food is typically full of nasty plastic filled ingredients, but if you’re gonna choose a bad diet it might as well be tasty!! Great location and they were waiving the American flag on the day of our countries inauguration, how can you be more American?

I went here for the first time yesterday and I already can't wait to go back. The food is simple but delicious, and the service is quick.

Super, awesomely great place. If you're nearby, it's a must visit. I have been visiting this establishment for far too many years to mention. Food is always excellent and staff is friendly as well. Please share this with anyone you know, and by all means, visit yourself. There were several of these, and we're down to this iconic one.

I wasn't feeling burgers for lunch but coworkers wanted to go. It was a lot better than I expected! 3 meals for less that $30 is a win 💰

I heard so many good things about Central Park before finally stopping by! The fries are delicious and the "Bubba Burger" is super flavorful. The grilled chicken sandwich was good but not as filling as the burger. I was impressed and will definitely make a trip back!

I love these burgers so well and make it here so infrequently that I bought 3 cheese burgers with every thing and they reheated very well over the next 2 days. Impressive! And I had forgotten how good their fries. Next time I will order 3 of those too.
