I went on a whim with two other people on a Sunday night and I still had to wait 45 minutes to get a table. \n\nMost of the menu is casual food but don't mistake it for ordinary. I got the Schroomage burger which is a regular patty with onions, blue cheese and a portabello mushroom cap. Delicious and juicy, my burger bun had trouble holding onto it. For sides we got Lola fries and the chili cheese fries. The latter is more like a meal in itself, get the Lola fries if you're looking for a burger accompaniment. \n\nAlso tried out the Vanilla Bean Apple Pie Bacon shake and it's a train wreck that works. The initial taste is what you expect of any shake (sort of chunky too with what i'm guessing is a graham cracker thrown in) with a salty and chewy end from the bacon. Surprisingly excellent.\n\nAs a small bonus, the restaurant features a homemade pickle bar. I'm not a pickle type of person but I went back for seconds."^^ . . "2009-12-21T00:00:00"^^ .
