I ate at the Rowlett location of Burger Island a couple of days 
ago. It's on Lakeview Parkway in the Tom Thumb shopping center 
where Bajio Grill used to be (the Garland location of Bajio 
Grill was great - too bad they're both closed now). I ordered 
the bacon cheeseburger combo. Since I like my fries crisp, I 
asked the waitress if their's were. She told me that they could 
make them that way. I asked her to do so. When my order came, 
the fries were excellent. They were nice and crisp and very 
tasty. The hamburger was also very good. I'll be back.

And, as long as we are discussing burger joints, my wife and I 
tried Burger Extreme a few months ago. It is also on Lakeview 
Parkway in Rowlett a few miles west of Burger Island, and thus, 
a few miles closer to me. They are in the Aldi shopping center. 
We both thought it was quite good. Unfortunately, their sign is 
nearly impossible to read. I drove by it many, many times, never 
knowing what it said until one day, a car painted with their 
logo pulled up next to me when I was waiting at a red light. 
Then, I was able to read it.
