A drive-in in the true sense of the word, Janson's has no indoor seats in its distinctive A-frame building with the orange roof line and blinking red neon sign. Janson's specialties include a big burger, onion rings and a thick banana shake. Tacos, pizza puffs and Italian beef sandwiches also are served. Fast food of many stripes, including the popular chocolate-vanilla twist soft-serve ice cream, is available. Several tables and a walk-up shelf allow spill-conscious customers to avoid the risk of ruining their car upholstery with a nasty mustard mishap.
