| - I've debated about going to this new hot spot since it opened, hearing mixed reviews. But today we tried it out.
We were seated quickly in a booth, but on my side there was a considerable amount of cushion missing, so I literally felt like I was sitting in a hole, in a sofa. We started to order beer, but of course the one we ordered was out of stock. So that was fun. We ordered an appetizer, the pretzel with cheese and mustard. It took a while to come out, considering that it's not a large serving. The pretzels were LOADED with salt. We brushed that right off, and enjoyed them. My BF ordered the veggie burger and I the Sonoran burger. My burger was cooked medium, the way I like it, however the meat was cheap and greasy. I lost my appetite at the sight of the puddle of grease. I also found my burger very salty and over-powered with the goat cheese. My BF had to wait a good 15 minutes before the waitress appeared to ask her for toppings, since his burger only came with goat cheese and bbq sauce. He asked for mayo and pickles, but the pickles were the sweet pickles and his burger was also very salty. I wanted to be excited about the fries, I like the cut, but again, I think the salt shaker fell into those as well. I did not finish my food, which is a big deal. I always clear my plate. I left feeling bloated, full and uncomfortable on a small portion of food. 2 burgers. 1 appetizer. $35. We didnt even order drinks, we only drank water!
I'm not sure if we'll return. Again, as so many times before, we've been disappointed. Still waiting for a great spot to eat a drink at in Surprise. Maybe one day...
