This is a strange little place. They only have outdoor seating, you counter order inside a small space, and pick up outside at a window. The food was ready fairly quick, and smelled amazing. It was good, but not WOW. And for $52 for 2...Read More

It's ok. Another burger place. If you like fried food like over toasted onion rings, then you might like this place. They overcook their food. They will give you potato chips rather than French fries with your burger. This was true, at least in my...Read More
