    Patty melt was good but Pig and Fig was much better. House chips bland and stale. Milkshakes were spectacular!

    This place was gross! Burger was supposed to be medium rare- thing was rare. Fries were so greasy they were glistening- almost as though the oil wasn't hot enough and then the fries were just soaked

    The burgers... oh the burgers are meat lovers heaven. Try the bleu cheeseburger with caramelized onions. Brunch on Sundays, good music, great bartenders, local cheeses for sell, no smoking inside. Go!
