| - First time trying this spot out. Parked a few blocks away (it's on a side street with no on-street parking).
The Good: Hamburgers were cooked as ordered (Medium); onion rings and sweet potato tots were tasty. Great dipping sauce for the rings, no dipping sauce for the tots. Great whiskey selection (if you enjoy it). The wife had the Gambler (cheddar, BBQ sauce, roasted tomato), and I had the Jerry Garcia (open-faced on sourdough with mushrooms, gravy, caramelized onions and melted swiss). Both were fine, but nothing too amazing.
"Bad": They had a whiskey menu, but no beer menu to select from. The server asked what kind of beer we preferred and when we said "dark," he responded with, "like an IPA, a pale ale?" Ummmm....no. The beer he brought was tasty, but the beer selection is somewhat limited. It was a quiet night (the place was maybe a third full), but no one from management stopped by to check on us, and the hostess pretty much ignored us as we left (I don't expect management to stop by, but it is a nice touch when it happens, especially when the place isn't slammed).
The decor is a rock-n-roll vibe with classic rock album covers and song lyrics on the wall, pics of rock musicians and movie stars, etc. The music playing in the restaurant was more modern rock, pop, "country," etc. (Beyoncé, Imagine Dragons, Florida-Georgia Line).
The place is trendy and upscale as another reviewer mentioned, but the wife and I both walked out saying, "meh." Not a bad place to grab a burger, but nothing exceptional, in our opinion.
