Their burger really satisfied my burger craving. The bun was perfectly toasted, patty was juicy, and veggies fresh. Their french fries were crispy and not overly salty. My family opted for the burger/sandwich of the day -- French dip with side of homemade chips. Their chips were crunchy and not too oily, but they were a tad salty for me. They had a display of many different locally made desserts (cakes, cupcakes, cookies), although they're not made in house. Staff is very friendly. They check in often and our water cups never hit empty. They have parking spaces on both sides of their building.

There is some seating outside but it's limited. When you walk in, it just feels disorganized, but in a homey way. I went it looking for coffee but was distracted by ice cream. They have Thrifty's ice cream! And they had a good variety of flavors too. They also have coffee and some interesting specialties. I really needed a coffee so I went with a regular hot latte with regular milk. We also did their specialty coffee, which had cayenne. I thought it would be spicy, but it was really comforting and delicious. Almost tasted a bit like chai but with different spices. It was really good. I would come back for this again. The regular latte was ok. The man working there basically takes orders himself and then prepares them himself as well. There was one other person there when we went so the wait was fine, but if there is a line, I can see this being a bit of a wait and I wouldn't recommend waiting around if you're in a hurry.

Pastas and plates abound. There are vegan options that aren't just door prizes and clearly marked on the menu. The grilled cauliflower with romesco was a flavor bomb and the Ratatouille pasta combined the traditional Ratatouille flavors rounded out with a hearty rigatoni to satisfy and leave you full. An inventive cocktail menu and decent wines as well as beers on tap if you are so inclined round out the offerings. If you are vegetarian, just be sure to let the server know as the fried items are fried in beef tallow but they will bake them for you if requested.

But we were recently saddened to find out that they've switched to frying in beef tallow for heath reasons. So all those dishes that were naturally vegetarian (zucchini, artichokes, cheese pillows, fries/chips etc) are now all dripping in meat fat. This whole recent "beef tallow is healthier than seed oil" myth is just the latest nonsense from RFK/MAHA. Debunked YouTube pseudo science. All reputable medical findings clearly show that animal fat is high in saturated fat which is linked to cardiovascular disease. If this really is a "healthy choice" decision then why have a 12" tall burger on the menu and not vegetarian vegetables? C'mon we love you Spaghetti Western.. let's not do this, ok?

Parking is plentiful in their lot. Carnitas Plate - The meat on the carnitas were soft and the skin was crunchy. Came with 3 warm tortillas so you could assemble tacos. The mexican rice and beans were so flavorful. I wish there was more queso fresco but that might just be me. I'm a huge fan of it! Loved how there was both pickled onions and pico de gallo. Portions were solid - didn't feel too full or wanting more. Solid plate. Santo Mojito - Done very well! I was expecting to see a lot of mint but there were only a couple chopped up bits at the top so I was surprised when the flavor was still there.

I drive 30k plus miles a year and have spent thousands of dollars at their establishment over the year. While spending $80 on gas arms 7:30pm on New Years Eve, I walked in and asked to use the restroom. The employee working told me the floors were drying and he couldn't let me. I explained I'd just driven 2 hours and really needed to go, I was filling my tank, I'm a customer. He said that the floors were wet. I said, I don't mind, I just really needed to use the restroom. He told me, I might slip and fall... I'm an able-bodied grown adult. It's not as though the restrooms were out of order. He seemed to just want to say no for some reason. I'll be consciously choosing to fill up across the street from now on. It costs nothing to be kind to your customers.

They also have heaters outside, which kept it pretty warm. If you plan to sit outside, the covered area is definitely the best spot. They have an amazing drink selection. I was actually really surprised they had Laphroaig. I also ordered an Old Fashioned, which was delicious. That said, the prices are a little steep for what's technically a dive bar. There's a pool table if you want to play, and they also have a Photo Booth that costs $6 and gives you two prints, which is a fun little addition if you're there with friends. The decor throughout the place is super cool and adds a lot to the overall vibe. It says they close at 1 AM, but they were doing last call at 1 AM rather than kicking people out, so I'm not exactly sure what time the night fully wraps up. The music selection wasn't really my favorite, but the staff was very friendly, the drinks were great, the atmosphere was lively, and the decor is awesome. Definitely a top-tier dive bar with a fun vibe.
