“Not like the good Olde dayz...but habe at it...hard to enjoy when you used to eat here before the franchise mania....og location but even they are getting really sloppy. Chargrilled....not hardly anymore..most places only use a flat top. Not the same as I remember. But then that's life. I like Sam's to go up the street now...“

“Not only was I invited in by the chic environment but it felt like I was going to some place classic. My burger was fatty and delicious with each bite. The fries were crispy as they should be with house sauce and ketchup. Finally the ice cream shake was a smore chocolate shake that made me feel as if it was frozen right next to the campfire. I cant recommend this place enough to the next visitor who comes here. I will return for more delicious experiences.“

“Delicious hamburgers. My wife and granddaughter have Celiac disease and it was fantastic that they could get great tasting sandwiches, Mesa burger and grilled cheese sandwich, along with very good fries. Staff was very helpful and responsive (although I think they may have had a long day). The gluten free hamburger buns were neither too thick nor crumbly like most. My pineapple burger was delicious. There were plenty of open tables on a Friday at 5pm. Modern pop music and laid back vibe with several customers with their friendly dogs. It is counter service. Bathroom needed cleaning but usable for washing hands after eating. We will be returning.“

“The food is absolutely out of this world. I had the wings when I was there this time, but I have to come back for the Smashburger. It looks amazing. The prices are very good for the area and the strawberry margarita is to die for. Free Valley parking in the back and the staff is very friendly courteous and very professional. I would absolutely recommend this place 100%..“

“The food is BUT… it is rather expensive and the side dishes cost extra. And while I know EVERYTHING is expensive these days, I find it rather offensive that they charge $5 each for teeny tiny containers of coleslaw and beans. Each one is barely enough for one person to enjoy. To get enough of either, you need to spend another $10 on top of the meat. It’s good, but it bothers me every time I order them.“

“Very rarely do we go anywhere to eat and we are both pleased. He ordered a mushroom spinach omelet with chicken, and i had the Dubai pancake combo, with my eggs scrambled well done and my bacon extra crispy. This is usually where my order goes south. Not today! Everything was amazing! Those pancakes were so delicious! Oh, I guess his omelet was the best ever!!“

“Great quality meat in their burger. Not that, cheap meat, thin smash burger, that seems to be trending everywhere. The biggest sleeper is their salmon salad. It's awesome with great quality fish, dressing, and veggies, which makes sense being that the proprietor used to be the executive Chef at Wine Cast and Bouchon. All ingredients are quality which really matters to me. It's also right by the back bar in the Public Market so you can sit at the bar and have a cocktail or glass of wine while you eat as well. Love it!“

The owner happened to be there and I gave her high ratings said she was top notch. I don't eat fast food but when I do the experience is usually subpar but this experience was excellent today! Their breakfast burrito are great when you are out of town and needing something quick and good. Thank you Alma for the excellent customer you provided me today!“

“The service was poor, our server was rude and inattentive, my drink arrived nearly two hours later as we were leaving, and our food order was incorrect. To make matters worse, I discovered my designer limited-edition bag charm was missing immediately after we left. We had only walked out for a short period of time to watch the fireworks. A report was filed, and the police were notified by the security team. This raises concerns about safety here. Overall, this was a very unpleasant experience, and I would not recommend this restaurant.“
