I've tried the two originals,Matt's and the 5-8, and the upstart Blue Door, among others, but we may have a winner in The Nook. First off, the atmosphere is exactly what a Nook should be: small and comfortable. The service was attentive, friendly and helpful. I noticed that was all the staff not just my server. I also appreciated the obligatory warning about the melted middle of my Lucy. Speaking of which, I tried the #7 Burger (it was recommended when I asked as it had more cheese and bacon). The Burger was flavorful and perfectly cooked. The cheese cheater exploded as a good Lucy should. A 10/10 experience. The hand-cut fried added to the experience and were a great compliment to the burger The beer was cold and refreshing, the food superb, and the staff welcoming. Not much more one can ask for. I will be back that is for sure.

This had been on our bucket list for a while - glad we finally went!…read more It was PACKED on a Friday night, with quite a wait for a table, but we decided to go play score-your-own bowling on the ancient lanes downstairs while we waited. If you don't wanna wait, you can sit at the bar downstairs - or even put an order in at the bar and eat at the lanes. We ended up getting seated in the basement, which I highly recommend! The food was classic - great wings, great fries, great ranch, and awesome Jucy Lucy burgers. The ambiance here is top notch, especially in the basement. Very solid bar food, and though service is stretched a bit thin still a great experience. Bring cash for a soft serve cone after!!

Neighborhood bar, I told them it's like a dive bar. They loved it. Neighborhood parking, easy walk up, there's a patio in the back. We sat at the booth by the bar and found out it's karaoke night. Our server/bar tender was also singing, and she was good. I was already full, had 1 cocktail and tried some of my friends appetizers. Reminds me of my college days.

I was looking for a place to walk to, and stumbled across this…read more I had a burger, wings and fries. My brother had the chili bowl. It was a nice little dive bar and it was not that busy at 6:30 pm on a Friday night. My server was really outgoing even though she said it was a busy night. She had a good sense of humor and kept things lighthearted. The food was very good, and the burger was a good size. The wings were crispy and delicious. The fries were well prepared as well. Overall I enjoyed the food and the pleasant staff. I recommend this place.

We started with Ahi Tuna Crisp appetizer - we substituted the cracker for cucumber. This twist makes it so fresh. The sauce is a bit tangy and avocado balances the tuna. So yummy! I opted for a cheeseburger - very good smash burger. I have had the Double Double in the past and that is probably my favorite burger with two smash burger patties, cheese and special sauce. Can't miss on the regular fries. Crispy and delicious!

I love the happy hour options and usually get som combination of the burrata, shrimp tacos, lettuce wraps, and/or ahi tuna crisps.

Preferred how they used to come with the burger and now they don't.

Needless to say a little bit frosty.. They don't do Tips, i left $12 cash on the table. Would I recommend it no. Would I schedule another family meal here no. If someone else invites me here, I will show up and roll with the punches.

Great patio! We came by here around 4pm on a sunny afternoon for some burgers on the patio, and…read morethis place did not disappoint. The patio was fairly with constant turnover while we were there, the weather was great, and the service was A+! The inside definitely has a dark dive bar vibe, good for some occasions but not super family friendly, but we felt comfortable having a little one with us out on the patio. The food was delicious! We tried the "wings" (made of chicken thighs) and they gave regular wings a run for their money! You can do two flavors which is great, and they're very filling. We also got a burger and the special of the night, chopped cheese, and thought it was delicious. Great portions, we had a ton left to take home. The cocktail was delicious as well, will definitely try more when we come back next to hang out on the patio! Come check this place out!

I ordered their porketta sandwich with bourbon sauce and it was excellent. It was not a traditional preparation but an even better version. Very juicy - I loved it.
