I'll start with the good. The service is very friendly and attentive, especially for a burger joint. This place would be a notch above a fast food burger joint and a notch below an Applebees type restaurant, as far service and ambiance goes. Our 6 year old enjoyed the decor and was immediately greeted with some crayons and a coloring/activity piece of paper. Our server (yes they have actual servers here) came over promptly to ask about apps and drinks. She was friendly and patient throughout our dinner and offered suggestions.
Ok, the other side. 50 bucks for a family of 3 at a burger joint is ridiculous. RIDICULOUS. A soft drink cost $2.69 + tax. The burgers go for $7-$12 to start, and then cheese is 50 cents, and there are many free toppings to choose from and a handful of additional costs toppings. So you're really looking at $9-$15 and up for a burger. That's a lot of money for a casual burger joint.
So my burger.... I ordered it medium and it was cooked properly. I asked for garlic and S&P seasonings. I couldn't taste the seasonings at all. You really need some type of salt on burger meat to bring out the fat and flavor. The sauce I added was a dab in the middle of the bun, not spread on the bun. So the first few bites have no sauce, then you suddenly get too much at once. The beef had a decent flavor, but without the salt, it wasn't memorable. Over all, it wasn't a bad burger, but definitely not the asking price. The other burger we ordered had sauteed shrooms and onions and it was pretty good.
I think the overall turn off is the high price for this meal. I honestly feel it was worth half that, at most. I hope they improve on the preparation and prices.
