Luke BornheimerJanuary 13, 2017Roasted kale is nicely charred and has just the right amount of residual oil from the cooking. Came out hot and was a great deal at $4. It would benefit from more salt and pepper and/or garlic.
- Luke BornheimerJanuary 13, 2017Cole slaw is rich, flavorful and delicious; The side is huge and a great deal at $4! Kind of reminds me of the toppings on a Whopper, in all the best ways.
- Luke BornheimerJanuary 13, 2017Sides of cole slaw and roasted kale are large, flavorful and filling. $8 for the pair makes a well-balanced and filling (vegetarian-friendly) meal.
Dan RobinsonOctober 6, 2014Wow! Let's just say they don't have burgers made if beef, but do have plenty of other options. And terrific coleslaw. And friendly service and beer on tap! A great addition to the hood
Staff PicksJune 27, 2014Tom Pizzica, the Food Network Star runner-up and former host of Outrageous Food, has opened his first restaurant in SOMA. Make sure you try the pork-belly patties which are 100% ground pork belly. Read more- Luke BornheimerJanuary 13, 2017Solid wifi (~14Mbps) and at least two available outlets.

Mark DregerJuly 9, 2015Interesting place, nice lunch spot — sit by the window and look out. I do feel like they'd be more popular with at least one beef patty option though. Eat the cheese fries fast before they get cold!
Marcus HendersonMay 17, 2016The Pork Belly Burgers with the classic additions are tasty!! I used to work in cooperation with Big Chef when I worked at ZeroCater.
I absolutely love sitting against the windows with the neatly designed stools!
- They've added a couple new burgers! Try the Tong Po or the Firecracker. The latter is pretty spicey!
Daniel PhanJuly 10, 2014The All American with pork belly is my favorite burger of all time. Of all time.
Juan GomezJune 25, 2014Paleo friendly. They do lettuce wrap and have an awesome side of roasted kale
Edward GonzalesOctober 24, 2014The pork belly burgers are great and you can order them in many different ways.
Alan ZeinoOctober 9, 2016This place has undercooked their chicken on two separate occasions. You'll get sick eating here.
