Mike Mezz: get the cheeseburger - it’s great. there’s an option to make it an impossible burger. there isn’t much else on the menu but this place is delicious and open late.
Paola Venturini: Cheeseburger and loaded fries 🍟! No indoor seating.
Bon: cheeseburger is solid but if you're hungry, go for the double. I usually can't finish a standard size burger and the double was just right. Standard size here is good if you just want a snack.

Taylor Williams: Great laid back bar. You can reserve the lower bar for parties which is a great size and vibe
ᴡ Young: The food is a bit heavy for me. But service is great and happy hour is amazing. I consider this place more a bar than restaurant. I really like the decoration and the vibe.
