This place used to be good. Today, Labor Day, the burgers came out and fries came out after I went in to remind them. Sweet potatoes fries used to be so good here. The were tasteless, overbattered and overcooked. Spent $30 here and leaving disappointed

Food is decent enough but do not trust their stated open hours. Owners seem to randomly close it half the time you want to go there so always call ahead. Right now it’s 12:30 on a Friday and they are inexplicably not open. edit: 3 weeks later still haven’t seen them open once and i live basically next door

Walked here at 6pm tonight and they were closed. Google says they are open until 8.

We waited over an hour for burgers, and they wee not the least bit apologetic. Family was hungry, wasted an afternoon sitting around. And overpriced!

Nice people, great burger (I had to smash mine to get it in my mouth), and just a nice time. Looking forward to going back soon.

Overpriced hipster environment that perfectly encapsulates the gentrification in our community.

Two cheese burgers, which were very good, one order of fries, one order of onion rings, also very good, 2 bottles of Coke. With tip: $85. Outrageous, but unfortunately typical of California prices in general. If you don't mind spending close to a hundred bucks for burgers and fries, this is your kind of place.

Great food and an awesome staff! If you haven't stopped by yet, I suggest you check it out.

Four of us came for a late lunch before heading out for some redwoods adventure. The burgers were juicy, the french fries were perfect, and service was lovely. Everyone enjoyed their meal and left satisfied!

Worst burger in Humboldt. I’ve tried giving them a couple tries over the years but every time it’s dry, over cooked, and waaaay too expensive for what it is. All the times I’ve gone in, the place was empty but it still took around 45 mins to get your food and it’s somehow cold. I really dont understand how they are still open with how many other much cheaper and much better options there are up here. So consistently bad, it motivated me to do my first google review

Super cute place and really good food. Burger was a tiny bit dry but I think that could be fixed by asking for the burger to be cooked medium or medium well. Regular fries are good but the waffle fries were great!
