| - We stopped by today for lunch around 1:30. The place wasn't too busy, which was nice considering it was mother's day. The atmosphere was bright and lively and the staff seemed polite and courteous. Our server was okay, she was nice and polite but we didn't get much of a welcome or were not told her name.
The menu concept, as some have mentioned, is similar to Burgatory or BRGR. The food...meh. I honestly was expecting more from a place whose first page of there menu is boasting about the naturally raised, antibiotic free and hormone free meat they use. I think I could have gotten a better tasting burger at Wendy's. The fact that we could only get our burgers done to medium well was disappointing and was the first factor in the poor tasting burger. Secondly, the flavor was lacking due to the use of ZERO seasoning on our burgers. I did not see any mention of seasoning used on burgers but in the era of youtube videos, blogs and food channels, one would think that it is safe to assume that folks know to use seasoning if they would like a good tasting meal. Also, our food was luke-warm at best and my curly fries...cold! I wonder if someone drove down to Arby's to pick up my order of fries and then they sat in the window for 20 minutes while they cooked the flavor out or my burger? The fries were a disappointment because again, a place that brags about the beef they've so carefully selected certainly must care about all of the food they prepare. Obviously not the case because these looked like the same fries one would get at Arby's. And yes because we were all so hungry we still ate our food. Try telling a two year old that he has to wait longer for his meal and see what happens?
Will we be back, honestly no. I think there are better places in the city that stand up to the standards of the food that they claim to serve. If you're okay with serving cold, tasteless, mediocre food, then are you really that careful to serve sustainably raised, hormone free ingredients?
Also, for the love of all things culinary...use some salt!
