Imagine huge burgers, each smothered in a fried "skirt" of melted cheese with a side of hot, thick fries. If this sounds familiar, you probably know that I'm talking about the Squeeze Inn in Sacramento.

The Squeeze Inn is a tiny restaurant known for its burgers that have so much cheese you have to experience it to believe it. The restaurant has been in its original location for about 30 years, taking orders from customers who literally waited in lines out the door. The popularity of the Squeeze Inn is not just known to Sacramento locals, but also caught the eye of Food Network star Guy Fieri and was featured on his show "Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives."

Even with the restaurant's great popularity, over the past few years the owners have had a rough time making the small location work. They have been sued twice for the lack of handicap access since the old building could not accommodate wheel chairs.

Though the community has supported the restaurant throughout its lawsuits, the owners have chosen to move to a new location that will be bigger and provide more access for everyone.

The new location of the Squeeze Inn will be around the corner from the original restaurant at 5301 Power Inn Rd.

Though some customers may be sad to see the restaurant leave its historic location, the new building will be bigger, accommodating more cars, people and seating.

Squeeze Inn owner Travis Hausauer pointed out that though the restaurant will be in a new location, they are "trying to keep as much originality as we can."

Upon entering the new restaurant, customers will recognize a lot of the memorabilia that hung from the walls at the old location. Trying to keep the old atmosphere, the owners were even able to bring the entire front entrance of the restaurant to the new location. They also brought the bar and stools that used to be the only seating in the restaurant from the old location.

The original restaurant only had 12 stools inside for guests and a small back patio.

Now the restaurant will be able to seat about 30 people, with 11 spots at the counter and five tables, with a double entrance that gives the place a roomy feeling.

The Squeeze Inn will still feature the same great food, though prices may go up about 10 cents. Customers will also be happy to know that the staff will be staying the same too.

Throughout the move, Hausauer said he is very thankful for all of his customers, saying, "Their support has been really amazing, and we really appreciate it."

"It's bittersweet, but we're moving on to better opportunities," Hausauer said. "I'm sad to see it go."

The new location is set to open Wednesday. The opening will be just a soft roll, but there is a plan for a large grand opening in mid-March, which Hausauer expects Mayor Kevin Johnson to attend.
