This place has a nice relaxed atmosphere. Very modern farm style rustic decor, so not outdated at all. Walking into the place, the flow is sort of like smash burger ( hate comparing the two but it's true). Here's why, you walk in..there's this wooden counter top that controls the flow and forms lines towards the counter where you order. Then once you order, you get a number to put on your table. I don't mind it, I just wasn't expecting it. The place is cute and they serve alchy-hol!! Not just beer but they have a selection of cocktails as well. Yay! The bar set up is nicely tucked away in the back!
Service is good and food came out fairly quick. But anyways, on to the good stuff...FOOD!
Food: usually I start with the main thing, but the fries...the fries were perfect! I devoured that first and all of it before even touching the main thing that I ordered. Ok so I jonesing for a good burger. Though, I wanted something different..you know..one of those things. They have this burger called Goat & Fig Burger. It's basically a beef patty with goat cheese, arugula & fig jam. Ok so yeah normally my thing is artisanal pizzas but wtf..not going to turn down an "artisanal" burger. Had to make sure this was even real.
Taste: Soo...it looked awesome when they brought me this unicorn burger..and I know I'm super hyping this burger up. My eyes were definitely eating this burger..yup! So first bite, it wasn't bad..the goat cheese and the arugula was good. I wish they had more arugula because as soon as I was mid way through that burger..the fig jam was over powering!! Either they put wayyyy too much or it was just...ridiculously too sweet. It was soo sweet that I couldn't taste anything else but the fig jam, the patty and everything else that was wonderful on there had absolutely no taste because the fig jam just slaughtered it! It was pretty rough trying to choke down those last bites. Soo definitely not ordering that again..ruined my fairy tale burger I had playing out in my mind.
The drinks: ok my saving grace was the huge glass of beer they serve. I love beer but let's just say, I REALLY LOVE Beer while eating that burger. They have beer options from local breweries around town (love that). I love the beer called "Panty Peeler" from Midnight sun brewing company. Yeah and I love the name (wink). I also ordered one of their cocktails, "Beluga Blue Gin Lemonade" because my friend had one and it was Hawaii blue and I was like..I deserve something like that too. So yup, that's my reasoning! Anyways, it was ok..I'm sure it would've been better if my meal wasn't too sweet because that drink was pretty sweet. It's pretty though but I'm pretty sure my glucose levels was already Sky high when I slammed that blue drink.
Anyways..everything else was great. Will I come back? Sure. Do I recommend this place to others? Yeah, it's a great experience and the other people with me really loved their food. Just lesson learned on that goat fig burger. read more
