I never go out to get an American dinner, but this place exceeded my expectations! We got the mushroom pizza (spectacular, good amount of sauce and toppings), the burrata pizza (good when it's hot and immediately after it is delivered to table, the apple salad (phenomenal, good about of sauce and excellent assortment of toppings), and the Caesar (classic Caesar nothing too special). But the item that stood out the most was the TRUFFLE FRIES. Best truffle fries Ive had in a very long time. Great fries and the seasoning was above and beyond. didn't come with an aoili dipping sauce oddly, but i was super content with the fries alone. super flavorful and had the right about of everything on it.

Always an enjoyable experience. Solid tavern food, great service, friendly staff. I like coming here because they make you feel welcome. The food is always on point, simple and delicious. The burger is killer and the sliders are the bomb. I love the sausage pizza, and the wings are pretty bangin too. Definitely come for the $1 oysters, and stay for everything else..

Underwhelming. The feel of the place is like a beer garden, dark dirty with poor lighting. The appetizers and main corse came out at the same time, so by the time I finished my soup the burger and fries were cool. The server took over 15 minutes to come check on us after the food came out so by the time I received my extra condiment the fries were not worth eating. I will not be back.

This is a great, neighborhood "hamburger joint". Not fancy. A bit loud but agreeable, predictable, pleasant and professional staffing. They also do a big "to go" business for those living nearby. Worth the trip.

Stopped in on a Saturday while visiting for PAX East. That was a mistake, especially during March Madness. It was so loud and the wait so long, but we finally got a seat after about an hour wait.The service was friendly and pretty timely considering how packed it was. Kudos to the staff for keeping up with the demand. We got the Lincoln Burger and the Spicy Wings. I'd recommend against the spicy wings, it's really just a red pepper rub.
Reversed a table for st Patrick’s day, ended up needing our passports to get in, (we are Canadian) the bar was very kind to hold our table for about an hour while we went back to the hotel and came back. Staff were great and had a good time in a well organized place during the mayhem of the day.

Nice place to have brunch with friends, if you need a table service you need to make reservation if not you have to wait for an hour minimum on the weekends.They have bar seating if you prefer that, you don’t need reservation for that. The food was good.

Outstanding service from the moment we walked in. Typical bar odor had us second guessing our choice but our concerns were for naught. Our server was fantastic, burgers were off the hook good, perfectly cooked on an artisanal roll. Fry's are thin and well done, salads dressed and tossed in house dressing, just enough.Only issue we had was with the house ade ice cream, taste was off - mint chocolate chip.We'll be back

Whatever pictures you see of a calm atmosphere, don't believe them. Went here on a Saturday night around 7:30 for the first time and our Uber driver said "enjoy the frat house" as he dropped us off. While we expected it to be busy, he was not wrong. A couple hundred people standing at the two bar areas makes this as noisy as a frat house. They tried to seat us directly next to this massive crowd and we said "nope" so we were moved to a table in the back room. Just as noisy since that is where the second bar is located but our table was spread out on the opposite side. The bar is so crowded they actually rope it off from the sit down area. We had the brussels sprouts with bacon and goat cheese appetizer which was tasty but left all three of us with stomach issues (only common food). I had the fried chicked and biscuit with sausage gravy. The chicken was two very small thighs that were absolute grease bombs. Coating was inedible. Never had such greasy fried chicken. Biscuit was tough and stale. Gravy was the best part. Peperoni pizza ended up being a soggy mess. Wasn't cooked long enough on the bottom so quickly wilted once it was cut. Order crispy might help. Crust had a decent char and the peperoni was the large slices like in a deli. Small cut is needed for a relatively small pie. Would be better if cooked properly in the wood burning oven. Burger was ordered without a bun which was replaced with a small house salad which was a nice touch. Cooked to order this was the best of the meals. Service was adequate but nothing special. No complaints, no compliments. Bottom line, if you want to meet 10 of your friends for a drink standing up at a noisy crowded bar this is the place for you. If you eat, keep it simple like burgers and pizza.
