Read the positive reviews on this place before and finally tried it, wish we would have come sooner. Loved the Wagyu Kobe beef burger, dry-rub ribs amazing and the sides (we had rings and fries) were super crispy. Love the build-your-own options on burgers, everything from traditional proteins to lamb, ahi and elk. Friendly staff told us a lot about restaurant and the area.
The only major issue we have is atmosphere - we live in the area and go by daily and they really need a renovation and something to draw people in. The small windows make the interior less inviting and the side patio it narrow and virtually walled with plants so one can't see out. Wish they played some music and pumped the volume out onto the sidewalk to draw people in - it's just a bit sterile.
I would go back for the food but there are so many more places in Old Town with more inviting and open atmospheres that compete with Stax.
