We stopped by for lunch and had the best hamburgers that we have ever eaten. The french fries were unbelievable and were perfectly cooked. The hamburgers were very flavorful. The atmosphere was incredible and the wait staff did an amazing job. Joseph, the owner, came out and spoke with us, and we told him that these were the best hamburgers we ever had. If you love hamburgers, then this is a destination location for you. The food is that good! You will not be disappointed!!!

Just had an amazing burger here, had the bad guys smash burger. First time in a long time I’ve been happy to pay $30 for a burger. Incredibly juicy and greasy (in all the right ways). Fries were a little salty to my liking but I also don’t care for a lot of salt on my fries. If I’m in the area again I’m 100% stopping by

Went recently. Burger was great, drinks order were good. House made lemonade which was enjoyed and have multiple flavors to pick. Fast service overall. Would recommend if you are looking for a burger spot.
