The burgers kick ass, the wings are wonderful, and they have a great beer selection. There is really nothing more to ask for, except delicious waffle fries. Which they have.
Tyler RidingsJuly 8, 2014A little hidden off 8th (and parking may be tough) but if you make it back to the patio you can enjoy the fresh air, local craft beers, and great burgers.
Casey ShirayJuly 13, 2015Great, unique menu. They do burgers, but they all have unique features like crispy tobacco onions (what?!) and pimento cheese. They also have amazing beer selections.
Craft beer and burgers. Great for lunch, a date or after night out on the town.
Shuff MauldinJuly 29, 2018Solid happy hr and Trivia night. Don’t be scared to substitute turkey - it’s good. Underrated outdoor area and somewhere you can have good convo.
One of the best burgers I've ever had - "Nash Vegas"! Sweet potato waffle fries and 2 for 1 beers! Can't beat it! We will definitely be back!
It can be very difficult to get a table when they're busy, especially in the winter when no one wants the patio. You seat yourself, so it's a game, especially during happy hour.- Paolo BaroneMarch 4, 2014Try the Sweet Potato Waffle Fries - Forget all you know about fries... Forget all you know about sweet potato fries... This thing is so amazing it may blow your mind!
I've ordered burgers here 4 or 5 times and they're pretty excellent. Only critique is that they tend to over cook a bit so order a step down than what you're wanting.
Lately felt burned & unwelcome via unresolved concerns. Shame to see such a great local staple & concept get so sloppy & stupid between clueless execs/dirs and easily-butthurt location mgrs.
Good beer selection. Foodwise, definitely go for one of the burgers, BUT check out the Carolina Sweets as well.
Great tap list and friendly staff. Check out the Beer Garden in the back!
If you like Bloody Mary's, you've got to try the Bloody Nola! This place is a good weekend brunch option too!- Design*SpongeAugust 3, 2014Craft beer and burgers, with really delicious waffle fries. Load them up with blue cheese sauce! Read more
Jules HughanSeptember 20, 2013If you're a foreigner bring your passport, they adhere to the archaic Tennessee state ID law. The tattooed server with the fancy fringe is particularly passionate about this topic.
Cheeseburger is very good. They serve everything with a pickle spear on the side, so let your server know if you have an aversion.
Jalapeño burger is amazing, order it without a bun. Gennesee beer is good too. Gets packed on Tuesday and thurs so get there around 3
Curtis CrossmanSeptember 4, 2017Waffle fries and a burger, can't go wrong. Beer is on point as well!
Jennifer SamardakAugust 31, 2014Good food. Pleasant service. Outdoor seating is in a garage. Good beer.
Tristan SnyderNovember 2, 2011They have some of the best hot wings ever! Get the tallywacker for dessert or go with the fresh baked cookies yum!
Cory BellamySeptember 11, 2013They have veggie patties that can be subbed on any burger at no extra charge. And their waffle fries aren't bad either.
OMG. The sweet potato waffle fries are SO worth the extra dollar. Yum!- If you're in the back - josh might brick a basketball so bad it hits your table. Heads up! ;-)
- Mary CarrellAugust 26, 2012Tallywacker is the best alcohol milkshake you will ever have. Do yourself a favor and order one!!
Stick to the regular cheeseburger. I find their specialities a bit to cutesy. Waffle fries are OMG.
Get the Left Hand Sawtooth Ale with a chicken Quesadilla. You can't go wrong.
Jamie MeredithAugust 9, 2011Great internet and staff are cool when you "camp out" in the aftwrnoons. Chicken wrap is the bomb! Waffle fries a must!
If you don't get the waffle fries, you're doing it wrong.
The steak melt with gouda and a Caldera to wash it down. Sit outside.
Sweet potato waffle fries with BBQ are a winner!
Wes CrossettFebruary 26, 2011Good Morning Burger! Egg sunny side up cooked over local beef with bacon and cheese. To die for!
Cathy MDecember 8, 2014Avoid late Sunday afternoons because they were out of half the beers and half of the food. What we did get was good. But I guess they get slammed for Sunday brunch.
Scott BossakSeptember 23, 2016Waffle fries were prominently featured on the menu so I was expecting great things but they came out stale.- Dude checking ID's at the door is just making sure they don't get in trouble. He's not being a dick on purpose. He's just doing his job.
Megan SeemanFebruary 21, 2010Get there early, seating is minimal- or just share a table with new friends!
The buffalo chicken wrap is my favorite of anywhere in Nashville.
The waffle fries are great! The tomato soup, not so much...
