This restaurant fully opened on Dec 10, 2021. Their menu features hot dogs, hamburgers, sausages, chicken, plant-based options, beer, and cocktails. Their meats and toppings are what make them outstanding. Being familiar with the other two Dog Haus Biergarten restaurants in Montgomery County, my wife and I decided to check out this location. We got a Hangover burger, a Little Mule burger, and a Sam Adams Cold Snap beer.
The Hangover burger had white American cheese, smoked bacon, haus chili, fried egg, and mayonnaise inside 4 King's Hawaiian rolls. The hamburger was tender and moist with a savory flavor. It was umami galore with the combination of burger, bacon, chili, and runny egg yolk. They put together salty, spicy, sweet, and umami flavors to make a well-rounded burger. This was an impressively flavorful burger! FYI, they claim that their beef comes from 100% genetically tested, humanely raised, hormone- and antibiotic-free Black Angus cows at Creekstone Farms.
The Little Mule burger had avocado, white American cheese, tangy pickled jalapenos, crumbly cotija cheese, a runny fried egg, and chipotle aioli inside 4 Kings Hawaiian rolls. The jalapeños stood out against a background of complimentary umami flavors. My wife loved it! Get this if you want a savory burger with a spicy kick and a bit of tanginess.
The Samuel Adams Cold Snap beer is a seasonal beer available from January until March. It is a white ale that was a touch malty with herb and floral notes. Easy to drink and reasonably priced. You should try it while it's still available!
The service was quick for ordering but slow in cooking. It took 50 minutes for our food to arrive. There was one woman handling all of the customers. The bartender was helping her when he wasn't busy. There were plenty of customers on this day, so the delay was understandable. The dining room and restrooms were clean. The restrooms were locked and required a numeric code to enter. The code was posted under the keypad. Strange. There were napkin dispensers at each table. Thank goodness because the burgers were super messy to eat! The sodas and water were self-serve. They have carbonated water available in the soda machine. There were lots of wall mounted large screen televisions around the dining room. So, it's somewhat noisy in there. Overall, the food was very tasty, the atmosphere was casual and relaxed, and the location was in an upper middle class business area. Parking is available at Wayne Ave Garage, 8506 Fenton Street Garage, and 833 Wayne Ave parking lot at Whole Foods Market. I would gladly recommend this restaurant as long as staffing is appropriate.
