Pro-tip: The restaurant is on inKind so if you pay through the app, you get 20% cash back. Highlights: This small bar has probably the some of the best customer service I've ever received - they are so on top of things, thoughtful with your order and really make you feel at home. We asked if they could turn on the sound for the World Cup and they were more than willing to accommodate. I thought the Balboa burger was very good and I would have enjoyed the gas lamp burger better if the red pepper didn't keep slipping out. They don't charge you if you change fries for tots or even your burger patty for a chicken or turkey patty, which is really nice. Lowlights: I'm a big french fry eater and I didn't really like the fries here I found them too soft. The majority of their tables inside are barstools, which is a bit uncomfortable for me personally.

The place is smaller but has indoor and outdoor seating options which is great! We used the bathrooms and they were very clean. The service was fabulous! They warmly greeted us when we walked in and the server remembered every detail - silverware, extra napkins, the chipotle ranch we asked for... We ordered the Birria Eggrolls and Tater Skins w Buffalo chicken. The skins were to die for!! We will def be back!

Birria burger

Dinner on a Friday night with 10 people and they were able to get us in and provide a great expierence. Huge vibe in a small spot which we liked! Our server (fellow hockey player) was nice, attentive and gave great recommendations. I got the burger of the month which was pastrami, sauerkraut, thousand island, burger patty on a rye bun. Absolute fantastic and hott off the grill! Also got the birria burger which was packed with flavor and delicious. Also great beer selection! I mean whats better with a juicy burger and beer of your choice. Will absolutely recommend and will come back!!

Old fashioned and a church music IPA

Great experience! We stopped in for lunch after reading all the positive reviews and we were promptly greeted. No seats were available inside (good sign) so we went outside in the shaded patio with misters and found an open table. Our server, Oliver, was awesome! Very friendly and attentive and helpful with items on the menu. For drinks we ordered an old fashioned and a pint of church music. Both good choices. Since it's a burger joint, Hubs ordered the Balboa and I ordered the Yeti. Wow! My burger was to die for. The rosemary goat cheese with bacon jam was the perfect combo of tangy and sweet! Hubs was eating his burger without any complaints which is what you want. Both of us went with the hand cut fries. Crispy and very good! We can't wait to return. This place is legit!

Breakfast menu on table tent.

Patio dining on a beautiful night in Arizona. Bonus. Good list of beverages on tap along with a few cocktail suggestions on table tent. I'm told by my son that they grind their meat fresh. Not sure if that's daily, before making each burger or what, but it serves no purpose to have a fresh ground burger if you can't have it cooked to order. All burgers are cooked to done. Well. No pink. Cocktail, the Blackberry Gin Mojito, is good. Burgers look good and come with lots of French fries. We did not get checked on regularly enough for me to ask for a side of Mayo. I managed to eat about ¼ of my burger. Could I tell it was fresh ground beef? Not at all. Will I opt to go back again? Not likely.

The OG
Liana M.

We found our new burger spot!! My husband and I stopped in on Saturday evening and it was packed inside! We were greeted immediately. We waited a few mins for a seat to open up and were given a menu to look over. There are tons of options! I went with the classic - the OG, their regular cheeseburger, with Monterey Jack cheese. My husband got the Bourbon trail. Burgers are not cooked to specification, as they are smash burgers. They are SO flavorful and juicy! So friggen good. And the fries are bomb. Fresh cut, fried to perfection. The staff are so friendly. It was really cool watching them interact with a lot of the customers at the bar, who are obviously regulars. The environment was so chill too. We look forward to returning soon :)

Picking up a quesadilla and soft pretzel for lunch. STARVIN!

Right across the street from one of my shops so it's convenient to hit for a quick burger or sandwich lunch. The staff was friendly and the clientele was cool. The place is pretty small but they have some outside seating to accommodate. It's like a little sports bar with TV's on the wall behind the bar but has a little cooking area off to the side. The food is good with a pretty good assortment for the size of the kitchen. I recommend this place for sure, nice and cool little neighborhood bar and grill.

Stopped in for a bite on a Saturday afternoon. The place doesn't have much seating inside, but there are a few tables outside. There was one high top table open so we asked if it was cool to grab it. We were then told it was reserved. Since it was so hot out we were just going to head somewhere else. Then a lady came out and said go ahead and take the table. After that everything went fine. The drinks and food tasted good and the pricing wasn't bad. I'll probably stop back by when the weather is better in case we need to sit outside.

Really good ! Burger was the stand out obviously. Cool atmosphere, little local place good service definitely above average bar food highly recommend the burger!

This place is amazing! The burgers here were absolutely amazing! They have an extensive beer menu with local beers on tap and offer the opportunity to try their selection. We had the fried pickles (batter is delicious) and the potato skins that came with pico which I'd never had but was delicious. The table picked The G.O.A.T, The Bourbon Trail and the Phatty Melt. The consensus is that everyone wanted to return to try a different burger. Smiles all around and another spot to dine in town. Don't sleep on this place!

I wanted to share my overwhelmingly positive experience at your restaurant today Our server/Kalli went above and beyond, providing exceptional service. She not only expertly guided us through your beers and sours on tap offering samples of several different items (including a couple we hadn't even considered!), but her recommendations were spot-on. I was particularly delighted by the pickle sour - it was absolutely divine! Her attentiveness extended to creating a custom taste-test experience for me, allowing me to sample the house-made Mitchell lotta. (It was incredible!) Kalli is a gem thought she was the owner she shows to compassion care and concern for each and everyone of the customers in this establishment..not easy to find these days. We will be back and mostly because of her. Thank you.. Beyond the exceptional service, the food was equally outstanding. The burger patty was juicy and flavorful, and the onion rings were perfectly crisp and golden. But the highlight for me were the french fries - truly exceptional, the best I've had in a long time. Their freshness was evident in every bite. While the restaurant/bar itself is small and intimate, this adds to its charm. We particularly enjoyed dining in the outdoor area. The thoughtful provision of both misters for warmer days and heaters for cooler evenings demonstrates a commitment to customer comfort. We'll definitely be back soon!

Gaslamp burger w/ Sweet Potato tots
Jackie T.

Probably one of the best burgers I've ever had. I love the small menu but it was so hard to pick because everything sounded good!! The food looked exactly like the picture, the tots were hot and crispy. The ladies who worked the bar were incredibly kind. Can't wait to come back and try something else!

No, this is not every server, but it hapoens more often than not. Also, could they make the menu more versatile?ABSOLUTELY! It is... okay. As far as bar food goes, it is also mid at best. There should be better salads, more vegetarian options- shrimp tacos, beyond burgers, etc. More fun appetizers- maybe a trio with mozzarella sticks, calamari, fried pickles/zucchini, and pizza that actually tastes good! Shrimp tacos, maybe shoe string fries, and desserts like pazooki, churros, applepie, brownie, etc. Surprising that the menu is not better when Marjerles had so many great things on the menu, and the manager is the same. We come for the ambiance, but the service and menu need improvement.

My favorite, though, was surprisingly the Espresso Martini. Since they don't serve liquor, I was a little skeptical when the bartender recommended it. I believe it's made with some type of cider, but somehow it really does taste like an espresso martini, topped with cinnamon and spice. So good! The bartender was really nice, and I loved their "Employee of the Year" display featuring the dog. Clearly good people! My only complaints were the limited parking and, unfortunately, the smell inside. It was pretty musty, and that was really the only reason I couldn't stay for more than one drink. Otherwise, it's a fun, casual neighborhood spot that I'd definitely come back to -- especially for another one of those espresso martinis!

I was a little disappointed that it was a smash burger instead of a thick, juicy patty, but nonetheless the flavors were impeccable. I added a fried egg on top too for $2 to make the burger even heftier. Wow I'm still thinking about it the day after. Also the fries were skinny and perfectly crispy!! But I also got the Beach Please cocktail (1800 Coconut Tequila, Passion Fruit Orange Guava Juice, Lime Juice, Triple Sec) but it wasn't what I expected. I couldn't really taste the Passion Fruit Orange Guava Juice, mostly coconut and lime. It was still a refreshing and cheap cocktail, but it wasn't quite what I was looking for. My new favorite spot for burgers in the Phoenix metroplex, but I can't give it a full 5 stars as I was taken aback by the smash burger patty and didn't love my cocktail. Regardless, I still think highly of this spot and would definitely come back!

We made our way on a Monday night and had no trouble parking in their complimentary lot. Ambiance (4/5): I've always been a fan of breweries and this is no different. Typical brewery feel.

I was able to order and close out without any trouble. Food (N/A): We had dinner prior, and regardless, Monday is the one night of the week they don't offer food. The rest of the week, they have various food trucks. Drinks (4/5): Whenever I'm at a brewery, I always get a flight. This visit was no difference. They have their beer listed on the wall, along with the style of beer, and the alcohol content. The beers are listed in terms of light on the left, and darker and darker as you go right. Which makes it easy to make a selection. I picked out my flight and enjoyed all of them. Goldwater Crossings has more of the IPA and dark beer varieties than my personal taste prefers, but I still had some good options. Outside of Chandler, they have another location in South Scottsdale.

This was a really fun blind tasting called. Can you taste the price? Four red wines from around the world, and we were asked to guess the price on each without knowing anything about them other than the taste. We had a lively group there last night of about 15 and some really great conversation about places we've been and wines that we like. Most of the people I've met at these events are like me, just like learning about wine and trying new things. But there's a couple regulars there that really know their stuff, and they contribute great knowledge to the evening. I have to say, I did poorly guessing the prices, but pretty good at determining the relative price points among the four wines. In any event, Luna and I left with smiles on our faces and more good memories. Even though Spin The Bottle, it's about a 50 minute drive for me, this is my go to place for buying wine now. Cristobal's niche is finding really good wine that punches way above its price point. You won't find any of the big name restaurant wines here, and it doesn't matter. I would guess the vast majority of his wines cell for between $20 and $45 with a really large selection between $20 and $30. Oh, at least I forget, we were treated with a nice large charcuterie box from Mingle and Graze that was a crowd favorite. Most of these classes are held on Wednesday nights from six to about seven or 730. Buying a ticket to get a place at the table is highly recommended as they fill up fast. The tickets are about 30 bucks and get you a bunch of knowledge tasting a few really good wines and sharing a really good charcuterie box.
