Chef Von and Moms is an absolute gem that more people should be talking about! The menu may be simple and small, but they focus on doing everything right. Chef Von's Double Smash Burger is arguably the best burger I've ever had--juicy patties, fresh toppings, and packed with perfectly balanced flavors. This place is all about quality, and it shows in every bite. Don't miss out on this fantastic little establishment! I know I will ve heading back soon!

I got takeout from here after hearing that Chef Von was on Next Level!! The food definitely lives up to the hype. Unfortunately, they don't have consistent hours and there was a long wait for food. But we planned ahead and ordered right when they opened to pick up near dinner time because we did our research. On Facebook, they post when they will open (whether it's 4:30pm or 5pm or something), along with the menu for that day. It looked like generally it stays the same with some tweaks or includes a new special (when I went they had chicken and waffles that day). I called a few times around opening time but the lines were busy. Luckily, it only took a couple tries to get through and we were able to place our order. The worker said it would take around an hour and a half, so I suggested that we could pick it up in around 2 hours if that would help them. The inside decor isn't mind blowingly beautiful but there are plenty of chairs and tables like food court seating. We had a big order and they prepared it accurately and timely (thanks so much!). I got a single LA burger and it was so delicious. The avocado was fresh and candied bacon was so yummy. It was a huge burger, and the fries were not soggy. Everything was also reasonably priced and not over expensive. Burger were under $20 and for those with fries, you could upgrade to garlic parm fries for an additional $3, which were delicious and I'd recommend trying one.

In historical downtown Scranton !!!! We arrived on a Friday evening about 6:00 o clock! If you can call in your order. They have two separate phone lines . Due to the popularity of next level chef they are slammed. It is a mom and pop shop and family ran. The wait was 2 hours for takeout . Since we traveled from Ohio we ordered and began to sight see in the iconic downtown. Service was polite. Locals were kind and made menu recommendations. I wanted a buffalo wrap but that was sold out. My husband ordered von's smash burger. It was 10/10 . Delicious and flavorful. I ordered the wings 3/10. Fries were well seasoned with lemon pepper and tasted like light fry seasoning/seasoning salt . I did not enjoy them. Nothing spectacular simply wings. Sauce was nice it was the chicken I didn't like . Chicken was unbreaded so sauce didn't really adhere like I would've wanted. They were generous with the sauce. I would describe the hot garlic sauce as sweet and savory . Smash burger was $17. Got an order of fries $6. Wings $15 for ten. Overall 2 out of the 3 things we ordered were a hit!!! So happy to support this local gem! Would recommend with proper planning.
