| - We stopped in today to check it out - and were NOT sorry!
Although the place is WAY trendy and VERY "hip," it's still filled with friendly, helpful staff, delicious food, a full bar, and fantastic soda bar (no Coke or Pepsi, here; this is Maine Root Fair Trade certified, organically sweetened soda).
I got a bison burger, the Buffalo Bill: I was almost expecting it would be too hot, as many of the "Buffalo"-inspired burgers are, but it was nicely tangy with THICK bacon and a very savory blue/jack cheese mix. The egg buns are nice and sturdy, able to hold all the weight of the burger and toppings but not overpowering the flavor. I ordered the regular Kennebec fries, which was enough to share, and tried one of the sodas ("Doppleganger," which appears to be their version of Dr Pepper -- as good as Dublin cane-sweetened). Tried the chipotle ketchup, which went really well with the fries!
My wife got the tuna burger, sushi-rare, and said the honey wasabi opens the sinuses, but wow, was tasty!
While not as terrific as Delux (also not as expensive), still, this will definitely become a repeat location for us. It's close, it's delicious, and I really liked the staff and the ambiance. Definitely worth five stars!
