We'd been wanting to get back here, not disappointed. This time discovered these amaaaazing burgers, wow. I had one named after our Chief of Police, Dan Slaughter, too delish!! Called estate burger, had meat, cheese, tomatoes, & these fried onion straws w/bacon aioli, wowza. Hubby had signature burger w/all the above & applewood smoked bacon & bourbon bbq sauce. We loooved them. Sides were fries & green beans, many choices. Dessert was caramel apple skillet, but they brought it to-go so was kinda hard. No problem, will be fine soaked in ice cream later, lol. Our friend Angelo we brought along had huge plate he loved too. He also liked that non alcoholic beer they had. Great service from Elena, but boy was she busy, even doing the bar too. Look forward to returning, but don't know what happened to the reward program we thought we signed up for.
Was there a few months ago and the fish and chips were wonderful, even took some leftovers home. I bragged about the place to everyone. Well i took a friend there on Feb. 1st for lunch at exactly 12 noon. Couldn't figure out why the place was empty. I then knew when the food came. The prices were raised and there was 30 to 40 % less food than the last time i was there. We were both very disappointed. Now i know why the place was empty. Will not return.
Place was 3/4's empty yet hostess sat us in area with two large noisy groups!! Slow inattentive service, high prices for wine (tasted terrible and probably came from a box!), and a burger that was dry and had little or no taste. Other than that, well won't be returning.
If you are a car enthusiast this is the place. Fun memorabilia from years gone by. We went there for lunch and sorry to say the poor bartender was also waiting on six tables. So there was a bit of a wait. Not a big deal for us because we were not in a hurry. Out of sight tap beer list. Something for everyone. Ordered the burger and onion rings, the burger had excellent taste (black and bleu burger) but I asked for medium rare and it was closer to medium. It was a very tasty burger, so I did not say anything. The onion rings were perfect. Not heavily breaded and not greasy My friend had a chicken sandwich that he said was cooked to perfection. Definitely will be coming back
Great food and atmosphere
Awesome restaurant! Super cool decor! Love the cars! Good was excellent. I did take one star away only because the 'hottest' songs they have are not at all hot. The nachos were excellent!
We were greeted promptly by Allie at the bar. We absolutely love the atmosphere as soon as we walked in! We have never been to one of these before. We wanted a burger and this was the place to go! We don't normally go off the grid from a regular burger with cheese and maybe some bacon, but Allie recommended The Estate Burger, and it was fantastic! We did have the sweet onion marmalade on the side and we're actually glad that we did that but some people would really enjoy it! It had Gouda cheese, crispy onions, and the most delicious truffle garlic aioli I've ever had! Most truffle things that we get, you really can't taste the truffle and this was the exception! It was so delicious! We got onion rings instead of fries and they were cooked perfect as well! I also got the ahi tuna starter. That was awesome! Very good. The sauces that accompanied it were great!
This was my second time here... Very cool atmosphere, menu and bathrooms. Food was good. Gave 4 stars as I felt it was on the pricier side for a burger. Macaroni side was good too... $5.50 for portion in picture.
Parking: Parking is shared with other restaurants and businesses. Can be a pain to find GOOD parking.

Great burger and beer selections. We have tried a few different burgers each were great in their own way. I recommend the peanut butter burger, it was the best out of the ones we tried and the one I wanted to try least. So glad I did! They also allow pets on the outside deck and have great service. Just a bit pricey, but still a nice place.
Parking: Big parking lot
First experience here. The asthetics of this restaurant were not up to par. Exposed wires, greasy chairs, only trash bins outside were at the entrance. Brooke was a great waitress, she knew the menu and was very helpful. Burgers were a bit overcooked than what we ordered. There is outside seating which is a plus. Food temperature was not hot, the truffle fries were almost cold. The fried pickles were my favorite menu item! And the sauce was delicious!
Great food! Awesome, fun theme restaurant!The shrimp appetizer was outstanding. Has a nice kick to it.My wife had the Model A burger. I had the Jiffy burger. She really enjoyed hers. Mine was good, but, I was a bit too adventurous going with a burger that's slathered with peanut butter! The peanut butter dominated the taste. I've made burgers where I mixed up PB in the meat patties, and it was very tasty. But to have a huge dollup of PB where the ketchup, mustard and mayo should go, is a bit much.Still, the food was excellent, and the decor is just too neat!We'll be back for sure! I'll just get a more standard burger!! ?
Server was nice. Not overly attentive, but no issues. Felt like the portions are a bit limited for the price. When we received our burgers we both asked about the size of the fry sides and we were told that lately they've discovered they've been over serving hundreds of dollars in fries, so all fries are pre portioned. Ok...no big deal. My wide wanted to try a certain lemonade and after sipping it, changed to a different flavor lemonade. We were charged for 2 drink purchases for her alone. Burger was ok, nothing special. Overall no issues. Just not wow'd either.
Great place. Theme after the Ford Motors. They have places you can take photos. Inside it's very cool. Excellent service the staff was very friendly. Food was delicious. I recommend the bison bacon and truffle fries. Ask for Vee for your server. He was super awesome.
