    Great burgers for an awesome price especially for the quality! I was able to smell the burgers from where I parked! Service was fast for how busy the location was during my visit. I will be returning to try more of their menu, but the Green Chili burger and the Patty Melt burgers were remarkable. Onion rings were delicious, fries were great, and the Sweet potato fries were good. Their specials change often, and they offer indoor and outdoor seating, along with bar seating and a great selection of beers on tap and local sodas.

    I absolutely loved it! The team worked together to ensure everyone could get things done. Upon entry , we were immediately sat, we had a guy bring us waters , and shortly after our server, it was a group effort, and this really helps. i love the system they have! Very ECO FRIENDLY!! Paper to go bags, paper togo containers, and many other things. I absolutely loved that. The food was spectacular, and the price made a lot of sense. It cost 20 dollars per person, and we got fries burgers and additional specialty drinks. I loved the variety offered in the menu! The server we had was amazing and clearly working hard, she had many tables she served and she checked with us constantly weather it be a brief head nod, I felt that shows we are still on her radar! I felt that was the most effective method when servicing others. The food arrived quickly we didn't wait long nor where we treated different due to not wearing going out clothes we were in comfort attire but it felt like we got over 5 star service no matter the appearance. I will come again, but even more so, we have already added this to the family event spot due to the spectacular service and, of course, the food!

    The service is phenomenal at this place and the food is delicious. I had the bison burger with the sweet potato fries with maple cream. It was absolutely five star.

    Very friendly service, and layback atmosphere. The burgers are classic and delicious. You know it will be good when they ask “how would you like your burger cooked?”. You actually get a large, fat meat instead of the thin dry patties. The prices are average and they offer a great value. The patio is just perfect when the weather allows for it.

    My hot honey sandwich was very good. If you spice , that's the one. Service was a little slow. But that due to our waitress trying to wait tables and bartend. She did do a good job.

    I only visited this place once, and I’m not local, but it honestly impressed me. The service was incredibly kind, and the whole place had a really welcoming vibe. The burgers were the highlight—super tasty and cooked just right. Even as someone just passing through, it’s a spot I’d happily return to if I’m ever back in the area.
