The waitress didn't appear to be loving her life that day but it happens. She answered all of our questions on the menu and we went with a wrap and a burger, plus cheese curds to start. Food was good, exactly what you would expect when you walk in. I will say this place is super busy, for it being a bar in the middle of the day- you would have never known. By the time we left the place was popping and there was no where to park. The avocado burger was good, I did a side of onion rings and everything hit the spot. I liked that we were asked if it would be one check or two as soon as we sat down vs. having the awkward conversation later.

The whole place reminded me a lot of Ale Emporium back in Indy -- relaxed sports bar vibes, plenty going on, but the food is way better than typical bar food. Great vibes, great service, great food.

They are crispy but not overly crunchy, and they are seasoned perfectly. You can also get some extra garlic aioli and siracha mayo, which are perfect accompaniments for the fries in addition to ketchup. I also got the strawberry milkshake, which was rich and dense, but a little too sweet. I would probably opt for a different flavor or not get the milkshake at all. The cashier I spoke with was super dope and chill, and also checked in on me to see how everything was which I appreciated.

(Probably good cuz you gotta work off the calories from those malts...) I actually saw this place advertised on a road sign for eateries to expect on the next exit. Usually those get covered in all the food chains like Taco Bell and junk, so my interest was piqued and I announced my enthusiasm to my hubbie that we try it. DELICIOUS. We arrived on a lovely sunny spring day, so we chose to dine outside on their patio area. The inside had a fun retro cafe aesthetic that I'm sure we'll enjoy during the cooler months at some point too. The staff was incredibly friendly and in a good mood, which added to my own happiness upon arrival. We were seated and given menus to study, and I do mean I had to thoroughly study it. Picking out what I wanted was TOUGH. Everything looked mouth-wateringly good, but I finally settled on the patty melt on the marbled rye with the waffle fries. Excellent choice, and it was so humongous of a portion that I ended up taking half home and reheating it in my air fryer another day. Love that! Hubbie and I shared a large chocolate malt, which they gave us two glasses to pour into. It was also delicious. All the prices seemed pretty reasonable, especially for nowadays the way the economy is. IYKYK. We're already planning the next time we'll be back! Yummy yummy in my tummy!

I felt like they nickel and dime you for the sauces. We got chicken tenders for my son off the kids menu, but it didn't include a sauce which I thought was odd.

I ordered a burrito with chicken and they didn't add the rice, the veggies were not chopped very finely it was like half a red onion chunk which isn't very appetizing. For the cost of this meal it was somewhat disappointing. The fries were made fresh. The meat was the best part of this place. Maybe it's just meant to be a burger joint and not so much Mediterranean style of food.

We grabbed a seat on the patio since the weather was nice, and the staff was friendly and attentive. Service was quick, and our food arrived in a timely manner. I ordered the Sandy Signature Burger with fries. The burger had great flavor, the onions were cooked perfectly, and the cheese was melted just right. The bun held together well from start to finish, which is always a plus. At only $9 for the burger and $13.75 with fries, it felt like an excellent value and was the perfect amount of food. My wife ordered the Sandy Sizzler with tots, and here's what she had to say: "This burger was juicy and flavorful. The seasoning was spot on, enhancing the beef without overpowering it. The jalapeños added the perfect amount of heat, while the chipotle mayo brought a smoky, creamy kick that tied everything together beautifully. The crispy tots were the perfect side--golden, crunchy, and cooked well. While the portion wasn't huge, it was just the right amount to complement the burger without leaving you overly full." Overall, we were pleasantly surprised. Good food, friendly service, fair prices, and a relaxed atmosphere. We'll definitely stop back if in the area.

We walked in for a pretty late dinner, slightly past 8PM and this place was still crowded. Ten minute wait for a table, the concierge said, but there were free seats at the bar either downstairs or up. We decided to walk down to the bowling alley (a fully functioning, retro alley might I add), and order at the bar. Nook Curds ($13.75) - It's a big basket of battered and fried cheese curds. There's bacon mixed in the batter, giving that smoky and salty, meaty element, and then drizzled honey for some very complementary sweetness. The batter is lightly crisp and the cheese curds inside are completely softened, to the point of being gooey and stretchy. Definitely no squeak here, but these were so delicious that I didn't particularly care. (5/5) Juicy Nookie Burger ($15.95) - Now that's a burger. Huge patty, completely filled with a large pocket of hot, melty, gooey, stretchy American cheese that gushes out while biting through the patty. It's decadent and rich, and that patty - charred so well, giving a robustly smoky charred flavor along with a strong natural beefiness, a result of the patty only being cooked until medium pink. Somehow even with so much cheese stuffed inside, it doesn't leak out at all. It's a pretty simple burger, with just that patty, three pickle rounds on the side, and a bun. The bun is buttered and barely toasted, just enough to give a hint of toastiness and hold up to the massive patty. It cradles the beef like a baby and sucks up all the patty juices and cheese. The burger comes with fresh homemade fries, fried heavily until dark brown, making them similar in both look and taste to my secret craving for Better Made Rainbow Chips, which has a heavily caramelized almost slightly burnt flavor. And yet somehow they aren't over fried in terms of texture. The outside isn't super crisp like commercial battered fries, instead the clear homemade nature leaves some softer areas interspersed with the crunch. The insides, of course, are still perfectly fluffy, and there are little crumbs spread out all along the bottom for an extra crunch. These fries are the height of deliciousness. (5/5) Yes, I've been missing this kind of fatty, unctuous, filling, greasy, rich food after moving away from the Midwest to Seattle. You simply can't get this kind of food anywhere in the PNW. What a great start to our week long trip!

But, despite being busy, the service was really pretty good. Drinks came out incredibly quickly. We did have to wait on the food for a minute. But that's b/c they literally only have a one grill.

I ended up getting a triple cheeseburger with a fried egg and caramelized onions, and it came out to around 13.50, which felt fair. I did not get fries, but they bring your food out to you once you sit down. The seating is pretty standard for a burger spot with simple plastic chairs. The burger itself was really good. The meat had a nice sear and did not taste steamed, which made a big difference. The bun was soft with a slight sweetness, and the caramelized onions and fried egg worked really well together.
