The cashier said that their Jalapeño Pepper Patty Melt is one of their favorites, so I decided to get it. The patty and a can of Squirt cost me $18 with tip. The place is very clean and nicely decorated, and my order was ready in less than 10 minutes. The patty doesn't come with fries, so if you want fries, it'll cost about $7, and they serve a generous portion. The meal was delicious, very flavorful and cheesy, and the bread itself was a little greasy, but I didn't mind. The waffle fries were freshly made and crispy. I will definitely come back again.

Tried Monty's #1 which is 2 pieces of chicken with waffles. Waffle was really tough to cut on a tray we were cutting the paper... first couple bites were good but once you try the waffle by itself.. waffle needed more love. Very bland taste and the center of the waffle was not fully cooked. Needs some improvement.

The evening started off strong, as we stopped by during Hoppy Hour (around 9ish). There wasn't a wait, and it wasn't too busy, so we were seated right away. The front staff was nice and polite. She gave us the option of either a tall round table or a shorter rectangular table. We of course, opted for the slightly shorter (height-wise) rectangular table. Once we were seated, we were given the menu, and the waitress told us that we would be right with us. She stopped by to ask about drinks, and we opted for water. She dropped off water and came back with perfect timing because by then we were ready to order. I also love the simplicity of the menu. There really aren't too many options where you feel overwhelmed, but there are still enough choices to pick from. Shout out to the pastrami quesadilla, I didn't realize it had been swapped for a new menu item until I asked about it this time around, but I'll be waiting for its comeback! We ordered a few items: the mac and cheese balls, the Wagyu bone marrow burger with truffle fries, and a double smash burger with ribbed finger potatoes. We had to get the mac and cheese balls since it was Hoppy Hour! I also didn't realize that on Wednesdays, the double smash burgers are half off. I'll definitely remember that for next time. After we ordered, the food came out quicker than I expected. It was a nice surprise. I think the first item came out about 10 minutes after our initial order. The mac and cheese balls came out hot, which was great. The breading made them super crispy and gave a nice crunch that balanced really well with the softer, chewier mac and cheese inside. I was glad the inside wasn't too runny since that would have made it like lava! I didn't see a cheese pull this time, but next time I'll try again to see if I can catch one. It was a great start to the meal. The burgers came out shortly after we finished the mac and cheese balls. I totally forgot that the truffle fries came with sauce. I should have asked for the sauce on the side, but it wasn't a problem that it was added on top of the fries. It just made them get soggy a bit faster, but that's no problem; it just means I've got to work faster! The burger was good and came out super juicy. I asked for it medium, and it looked about medium, so no complaints here! I never realized before, but the bread was so fluffy... it was a super pillowy bun with a nice bounce to it. It definitely helped balance out the meatiness of the patty. The hint of tomato gave it a nice, refreshing bite and really helped cut through the richness of the meat. The onions also added a nice sweetness to the burger, which was appreciated. I also snuck a bite of the ribbed potatoes, and they were good as well. They were a bit crispy on the outside and nice and soft on the inside, with just a touch of saltiness. I also stole a pickle from the double smash and realized I probably should have asked for pickles on my burger, but I'll remember that for my next visit!

My mother ordered filet steak and I ordered Tri Tip. I had French Fries and Macaroni and Cheese for sides. The Tri Tip was a non-thin piece of meat. It hit the spot as did the sides. Men's washroom was clean and had paper towels... good. I'm glad to see that the guys working at this establishment tucked their shirts in which I consider to be a professional look. I did notice that one of the employees had a Red Tag on his right back pocket. I consider the food to be so good that it is worth any diarrhea that might follow afterwards!
