Bun didn’t make it to the end simply because of all the liquid the toppings were making. Overall, definitely a good burger had great flavor and the fries are always fantastic. Service was good and the atmosphere is always delightful.”

The only downside is the bottom bun got soggy fairly quick from all the juices, but the flavor from it was so good, I didn't mind it as much. 10/10 would go back.”
