The atmosphere is great, very laid back and fun to hang out with a bunch of friends. The backlit bar gives the place a rather chic ambience but it is the fantastic burgers that they churn out that makes the 40min wait worth it.

The yuppie version of Fudruckers? The most flavorful house made veggie burger I have ever had. Ordered it with a fried egg on top, jack cheese and mayo. Mike had the turkey burger, which scared me it had such a rich, full flavor (usually associated with beef), I almost wanted to send it back! more
