I would say this is the best burger joint in town. The one thing I didn’t care was that all burgers come with lettuce tomatoes and raw onions even though they are specialty burgers. So if you order any of their variations make sure to ask if it comes with those condiments and ask without them. Even the one with the grilled onions has raw onions in addition. Quality of the burger is excellent. The onion rings are beer battered and some of the best I’ve had. Beet salad is top notch.

This place used to be great, but as of March 2024 the quality has declined significantly. The restaurant itself is very dirty and feels poorly maintained. The service is pretty slow for what it is. But the food would more than make up for that, if it were good, which it isn't particularly, especially for the high prices.The worst experience I can have biting into a gourmet priced hamburger is to receive a mouthful of bread, which is exactly what these burgers are like. The bun was a little crunchy and didn't really add anything. For a fraction of the cost and time, you can make a better cheeseburger with ingredients from any grocery store in town.

Don’t usually review places even if I am disappointed, but after reading similar experiences I thought I’d try to save someone else from a bad experience that could be avoided. I’ve eaten here multiple times but it’s been a while since the last time. Today I went spontaneously with a friend and was very disappointed and grossed out by the place. The waitress was sweet, no complaints there but the wait staff looked miserable… never a good sign for a good work environment. The place looked pretty dirty. The cook looked greasy, with a long uncovered beard. Usually I don’t mind cooks not wearing gloves because obviously if they wash their hands gloves don’t matter that much. But this guy looked kind of unclean to me, like it’s questionable if he regularly washes his hands, and he was handling the food with bare hands. So I felt kind of grossed out and a bit uneasy about eating the food. The place made me feel depressed. The staff looked depressed. And the food was not good like it usually is. The fries tasted a day old and had no salt in them, they were cold and inedible. We had thought about going to Freddy’s prior to coming here but I thought maybe it would be a step up… I was very wrong and very disappointed in the amount I spent on it.

We had delicious grass fed beef burgers- each with its own twist. The sweet potato fries were the best I’ve had recently!! It’s a very fun vibe.Kid-friendliness: Informal environment with an enclosed patio

It was a really cool place. I love that they allow dogs in the patio. However, I ordered my burger "pink," and it arrived overcooked. Also, why didn't they refill my water? Because it's free? They were quick to refill my husband's beer.

Stopped in for lunch, first thing that hit me was how absolutely cold it was in the restaurant. No matter where I sat it was freezing. There is no heat in the small building.Staff is not friendly. Took 15 minutes to get a drink and order. The fries came first, they were cold and inedible. Burnt. Limp. The burger was cold and flavorless. They serve a 7 oz burger fyi. Dry as hell.Total meal with tip was $26. For one person.Will never be back.
