The drinks/cocktails are great with an extensive selection in addition to their willingness to make things not on the menu as long as they have the ingredients. We only had "bar food" (french fries, onion rings, and my friends had wings) but the menu looked really interesting. Next time I will go back for some pizza or other things on the menu. The most unexpected part of the evening happened when they brought out a "cake" made of brownies and candle in it! My friend sneakily told them it was my birthday. The brownie cake was delicious and enough for many more than the 3 of us. Such a great place and I will be back soon!

Good beer selection, and good variety of games to watch on the screen as you eat. We were able to catch some of the World Cup game while we were here. Would definitely recommend for big parties, casual eats, and a great time!

On to the food: This place has great burgers and chicken sandwiches, but if you've ever wandered by you can smell them grilling chickens. They're delicious overall, but a little inconsistent - sometimes it's a little too salty, other times the skin isn't rendered enough in a spot, or the meat is slightly dry in a spot. I'm making it sound bad, but I order this like half the time I'm there because it's delicious enough the inconsistency is not worth skipping this for. If you are in a hurry to clog your arteries the French fries with blue cheese and bacon will satisfy your most primal cravings while simultaneously wiping a year off your lifespan in a single order. Might be worth it. It's an absolutely huge portion. Whole plate is probably 5000 calories. This place is a local gem and you shouldn't miss it. Just know what it is and have a fun time.

We got lucky and…read morefound a parking space close-by, which can sometimes be a challenge, since it's really popular. You can dine inside or outside on the patio. We chose to eat inside. The restaurant was cool, thanks to their A/C. I was happy when we got in line to order and there were only a few guests in front of us. The line moved quickly and we placed our order, grabbed our soft drink cups, grabbed our buzzer and found a table. The buzzer went-off and we grabbed our food. My wife and I enjoyed a Bacon Swiss Burger, our son ordered a Double Cheeseburger and we ordered a basket of Garlic Fries. They delivered an order of Loaded Fries to us by mistake. We told the server we didn't order it, but he said it was their mistake, so it was on the house. Our burgers were good-sized, flavorful and filling. The Garlic Fries were awesome, especially if you like garlic. We only ate about half of the Loaded Fries, since it was just so much food. Help yourself to refills of soda, if you like. The staff is always courteous and friendly. They also bus the tables regularly, which is appreciated. This is one of my fave places to enjoy a burger!

To drink, I got the On the Wagon mocktail which is basically a variation of a Moscow Mule. I really did like this mocktail. It was so refreshing. For the table, we ordered herb fries and chicken tinga nachos. The herb fries were good. Nothing special. The nachos were not my favorite. The serving was a good amount but it wasn't too flavorful.

Thought that was kinda weird to do for a children's burger but the kids all ate their meals. I actually didn't see the pink of her burger until she was done and had already eaten about 3/4ths of it. The fries were actually the best part. I had the nachos and the chips def needed salt. I ate about half because I was starving but they would've been better with more beans and sauce as it was still quite bland. The nachos look better than they tasted that's for sure. Atmosphere 5/5 - This was the best place for hanging out with friends and it had plenty for the kids to run off and do. Jenga, hoola hoops, corn hole Service 2/5 - We waited a really long time to get someone to take our order and then another 20 mins or so for the check when we were done. And they knew we were done because the waiter came and took half our plates when we were finished. The place was practically dead so I don't know what the hold up was. I'm sure this place gets packed when there's events going on. The food and prices were not my favorite. I don't live nearby so I obviously wouldn't make the trip back out just to eat here again. The only thing note worthy was the atmosphere since the kids had a blast hanging out with their friends.

We were hoping to find some curry and an old friend from high school. We found neither, but the drink selection was top tier! Kitto was patient while my group of four assessed how hungover we all wanted to be the next day. We all opted for a jolly imbibement of excess, and he happily ushered us to the smoother shots. All the best of the late nineties and early 2000's were playing on Kitto's queue with a few sprinkles of the classics that created conversations from patrons about where they say Van Halen or Aerosmith and with whom. Can't find a better vibe for reminiscing and making new connections between old friends and new partners. And this morning I woke up feeling like I had the best night ever, hence this glowing review.
