Welcome to 80/20 @ Kaelins. A new take on the classic restaurant where the cheeseburger was created. A neighborhood spot where anyone is welcome. Bring your family and friends and join us. A great place to watch a game or enjoy some family time. Featuring burgers and classic comfort food and drinks. Try out the 80/20 Malt Shoppe for some house made ice cream or a shake with your burger. Maybe relax on a porch swing for a bit. Grab a bourbon or local brew to enjoy at the indoor/outdoor bar. Have an evening relaxing on our large patio. Maybe throw a party in one of our private dining areas where we can offer custom menus from casual to upscale.
We would love for you to join us. And we look forward to taking care of you.
Thanks,
80/20 @ Kaelins

I would definitely go with the burger; it was thick, juicy, and delicious. The bun was softer than expected and a great meal. Our waiter was outstanding and everyone was friendly.

Atmosphere is amazing, food is fairly good but the poor service may deter us from returning. Just felt like the server was not very attentive; never checked to see how the food was or if we had everything we ordered, only saw them during order and checkout.

We had reservations at 6:15 on mother's day and we're seated promptly. Our waiter immediately brought us water which was nice. We asked him questions about our dietary needs and he tried but I don't think he was very knowledgeable on the topic. So we ordered our food and waited.. and waited.. and waited.. and an hour and a half later we were served. We were pretty hangry by almost 8:00. Our food was correct and delicious.. but all of our bellies hurt afterwards 😏

Food was great , it was Mother’s Day so they were extremely busy . Our waiter was amazing as well we understood the businesses of the day so we had no issue waiting on him coming back . We were seated as soon as we got there (thanks to the reservation) they have adult capri-suns I highly recommend as well the bourbon milkshakes were to die for . 100/10 coming back

I made a reservation for 18. We got there a little early, but our tables were all set up in a nice, quiet corner. The service was excellent and the food was very good. Between all of us, almost everything in the menu was ordered, and all were very pleased with their meal. I’ll definitely go back.

We made a 7:00 reservation for a birthday celebration, arrived at 6:55 and my party of 5 was seated exactly on time. Food was delivered in a timely manner with the perfect amount of time spaced between courses. The tasty adult beverages were expertly crafted with a perfect pour of alcohol. We had a 7 year old picky eater in tow. When asked if his food was good who responded “No… it was great!” with the biggest grin. We’ll definitely be back for another birthday soon.
