Okay, if you’re into smash burgers, you have to check this place out. Hands down the best I’ve had in Fort Worth. The patties are thin and crispy around the edges, super juicy in the middle, and packed with flavor. They get that perfect sear that just hits different. I got the double and it was chef’s kiss — everything from the bun to the sauce was on point. Fries were legit too — crispy, salty, and not greasy. The vibe of the place is chill and the staff was cool, quick, and friendly. No fluff, no gimmicks — just seriously good burgers. If you’re craving something fast, fresh, and ridiculously tasty, this is your spot. I’ll be back for sure.

Let me start by saying this is now in my top 3 best smash burgers I've ever had, I tried the traditional double smash burger and the backyard burger. Of the two I enjoyed the traditional burger the most because of it simplicity yet still having the ability to capture all the flavor notes I was hoping for I would come back just to have that burger again. The poppers were very good they are legit backyard grill style poppers with fresh jalapeños and served up with HONEY BUTTER, I don't know what mad genius made this pairing of flavors but my God does it work so well. The tater tots were a great crisp on the outside while being ideal softness on the inside. So overall I think this is a must try burger joint for anyone that's got that craving for one of the best burgers you could bless your taste buds with.

Burger tasted fantastic! Service was a bit slow for what would seem to be a basic food item. Atmosphere was good, not too loud and was comfortable. Super thin pattys, so you definitely want to get two. Honestly that should just be the standard here, otherwise you’re just eating bread.

Completely unrelated to food, but the girls bathroom has tampons. I’ve only seen a handful of places do that. Today I was a girl that needed one and this restaurant had my back. I was amazed! Now onto the food! I had the gusto burger, and it was absolutely delicious. The sauce was perfect. The fries and tots were good, but I would say the fries were just a little bit better since they were more crispy! Warning for spicy deficient! The sweet heat burger was more heat than sweet! It was still good! I loved the vibes here! Red solo cup drinks and paper plates! Very laid back casual place! We will be coming back!

Tried the smash burger at Gustos Burger, and overall, it hit the spot. The patty was nicely seared, juicy, and had that crispy edge you'd expect from a solid smash burger. The bun was soft and fresh, and the toppings were balanced—not too heavy, just enough to complement the beef. That said, the dining experience could use some improvement. There were a lot of flies around the food area, which was a bit off-putting. A better system for keeping them away (like fans or air curtains) would really help elevate the experience.

After hearing everyone rave about this burger spot I finally got a chance to try it! We visited on a Friday around 2pm. We ordered the gusto burger, sweet heat, one side of french fries & sprite. Total was about $40 which I would consider on the pricier side. The burgers were pretty good but did not live up to the hype imo. I will say the service was excellent 👌🏾 Overall it was a good experience and would consider coming back in the future.

*IF your a Fort Worth Native go HERE* I had an awesome experience at GUSTOS—this place is a hidden gem! I ordered the Triple Stacked Gusto Burger, a classic Gusto Burger, and their signature Gusto Style Tots, paired with a Sprite. The food was absolutely delicious—juicy, flavorful, and made fresh with so much love. The burger was stacked to perfection and the tots had just the right crunch and seasoning. What makes this spot even cooler is their Open Mic Night every Wednesday from 7 PM to 10 PM. I had the chance to enjoy a live performance from a local artist, and it made the night feel even more special. Great food, good vibes, and live music? Can’t ask for more. I’ll definitely be coming back and bringing friends! Highly recommend GUSTOS if you’re in the DFW area.

Googled best burger in Fort Worth, and this place did not disappoint. Laid back place that's great to stop by for a bite with friends or family. Arrived on tuesday night at 7 pm. Parking might be a challenge. Was a bit confused on how to order, but you go inside and order at the cashier first. They give you a number on a stick to put on your table so they can bring the food to you. Sat outside as the day was nice. The menus are kinda old. Not to be that person, but at least wipe them down or replace them every now and then. Ordered the Gusto Burger with two patties and tater tots on the side. It's probably the best smash burger I had in a while. The ratios were perfect. The buns were soft but not soggy. The outer meat was nice and crispy. The patties were soft it just melted in my mouth but still had that chew and texture, which was A+. The tater tots were a letdown. They were crispy and fried perfectly, but it was salty in my opinion and ate only a quarter of it. At least the portion was large.

This Burger SLAPS! This is simple: Do you want a high quality burger, quick, with old-fashioned's on Tap and on-point? Then this is your place! Yeah, there's beer too, as it's the old Gingerbread Man... but jump in line, and follow the signs... if you have never been here before, just tell them at the register, and they will quickly and accurately guide you around the menu (or you can just check it out on Yelp). It's a small intimate seating... but in FW, if you see 2 people at a picnic bench, be polite and ask if they'll share! Maybe you make a friend for life! I JUST LOVE FORT WORTH! 5 STARS!

I was excited to come and get a good burger. I was ok. Not what I expected. Came on a Thursday after. Good service and seating is good but not a lot. They do have a great patio. Not a lot of parking Very clean restaurants The bacon cheese style fries had way too much bacon bits. Not enjoyable for me.

September 2025 Came for the burgers-- and I am pleased. Double Gusto Burger $10.99 4.7/5 Order of tots (split between two people) $5.19 4/5 **seems expensive but it was a shareable portion. It took less than 10 min. You order at the bar, pay, and they give you a number. It was very cold inside, so we sat outside on the patio, but we didn't know it was under construction.... Mosquitos were bad, and I got bitten so we got to go containers and ate in the car. Bummer. But-- the burger is a must try !!! I want that again, for sure.

I like the vibe of this place. They have live music outside sometimes and others a DJ inside. And the food is good. The wait can be a little long sometimes so if you're in a rush this isn't the place but that's the only complaint I have.

This is a formal complaint, since eating here every burger has let me down. There's nothing I dream about more than Gusto's burgers. Smash burgers in Texas is obviously a thing, but I don't think Gusto's can be beat. I don't think there's a single burger on the menu you could go wrong with. It's a must to put this at the top of your late night eateries list. Your friends will thank you for not only feeding them late at night, but taking them to this specific spot. The vibe of a little house converted to a bar and restaurant is supreme. And the outdoor area with live music is such a fun spot to chill. We sat at the bar, and the bartender was great! Convinced me to try a THC beer and it did not disappoint.

Man! I've heard about this place for a while now--everyone raving about how good it is--but since I'm not the biggest fan of smash burgers, I'd been hesitant to try it. We happened to be nearby on a random Wednesday after running an errand, and Gusto's was one of the few spots along 7th Street still serving food late. To my surprise and delight, we walked up to find a DJ spinning house music on the patio. My high school heart instantly started dancing. There's plenty of outdoor seating, and if music's not your thing, there are quieter spots to escape the noise. When you step inside, you're greeted by an entry area that leads to the bar--this is also where you place your order. The menu has a variety of burger options, but I kept it simple with the classic cheeseburger. Let me tell you: it was perfectly smashed, with crispy--not burnt--edges that somehow melt in your mouth. I don't know how they do it, but the texture and flavor are on point. The cheese is ooey-gooey, the bun is soft and buttery, and you get a choice of tots or fries. Pro tip: go with the tots. The full bar is open and well-stocked, and everyone working there is super friendly. So glad we finally stopped by--Gusto's did not disappoint!

Oh my goodness......my first smash burger and boy was it good. Crispiest tots and fries that we've EVER had. Will be going back but only for a special occasion. Gotta watch my calories intake

This is definitely been my favorite Smashburger place around Fort Worth over the last couple of years. The food is always amazing and fresh, you might have to wait a little bit but it's worth it. It's always a fun place to be with live music or a DJ and everyone having a good time I definitely try to get in there at least once a month. I would like to go more, but sometimes the weight is a little too long lol. That is not a bad thing. !! This was my first post for Gusto's this year and won't be the last

There are a few notable smash burgers in Texas from 4 different cities that have made a huge waves. Gustos is one of those 4. If you're not hiding under a social media rock you'll have heard of Gustos Ft. Worth. Visually stunning food. I've been following online since this was just burgers being sold out of a van. I'm out in Dallas and watched with envy every post that was shared of these amazing smash burgers I wasn't close enough to try. Today I was at an event in Hurst and saw I was just a short 15 minute drive from Gustos. I made my way on over with the family ASAP. The area is very pleasant. Clean streets and friendly atmosphere all around the immediate area. Parking area was very accommodating for a late Sunday afternoon. Placed my order at the counter. The bacon burger was outstanding. Extremely flavorful. Got it the way it came. The gusto fries were really great. The onions were great. I wouldn't mind some lightly grilled/sautéed onions added for some extra texture but maybe that's just my preference. The burger hit the spot and was a for sure 10 out of 10.

The place was a cute little hole in the wall! The service was good, the employees were great. At the register was Miss Alexis and she was very friendly and helpful and our server was a sweet young man named Oliver and he was such a sweet and tender soul! The food was great! I had the happy hour sliders which came w/4 sliders for $8 and a side of tots for $3 and a large enough portion to be able to share! My date had the like $13 backyard bacon double paddy cheeseburger( not on happy hour menu) it was all sooooo delicious and worth checking out!! They also offer live music and other stuff!!

Earning Their 5 Stars!!!! First timer, and all I can say is Fort Worth has a worthy smash burger destination! The Gusto is the quintessential smash burger...absolutely kills!!! Fries, meh, maybe try the tots next time, but the burger is amazing! Definitely going to try a few of the variations on the menu next time. Great service, hospitable, and outside seating was a treat on a break in the heat and rain...

I don't give poor reviews and this isn't necessarily that, but I feel the need to say something. The food was really good. The burgers are great and the sides are good. Now, if you're gonna charge me a Hundo for 3 burgers, fries, an app, and two beers, I'd like at least to get Chinette paper goods. The bare minimum paper goods are more wasteful than good. Service, meh. Walk up counter order with two different bar tenders taking turns socializing more than customer care. I'd go back for the food but can do without the apathetic lackluster service.

Gustos holds a very special place in my heart. It occupies a space on Magnolia that has been through several of my favorite businesses, but this one is easily the best. There's an edgy, punk feel to the ambiance, something you don't get with new restaurants. This might put off some more traditional people but to me, there's such a special edge as all of the art and decoration come from local artists. But that's just the tip, because the burger is hands down the best smash burger in DFW. I've tried a lot of burger places and there's no doubt in my mind that Gusto's makes the bets burger in town. It's greasy, it's so incredibly flavorful, and most importantly, it's an actual smash burger. There's history in this burger, an improvement in a long line of burger smashers before. The staff is ultra cool, makes you feel extremely welcomed. This places is without a doubt, a 5/5

My Do214.com email informed that a good choice for National Burger Day was Gustos Burgers N Such which happened to be close to my doctors appointment. I sat at the bar and was greeted by Alexa who took great care of me throughout my visit. Typically you order at the bar cash register, get a number and seat yourself in one of the rooms or on the patio. My Smashburger was delicious except the bun needed to be toasted and I learned that is something that you need to request; personally I think it should be served toasted. The tots were extra crispy, which is how I like them cooked. They have a good choice of local craft beers. Their parking lot is tiny, but I believe I read they validate parking in nearby lots.

I stumbled onto Gustos Burger Bar + More back in October when they were spotlighted in Texas Highways' roundup up of "50 Texas Burgers Worth the Drive". I love a good smash burger and they seemed to fit the bill. What started as a pop-up gig (with a near death food truck detour) has now planted roots in a small white frame house at the corner of 7th and Magnolia in Fort Worth's Near Southside neighborhood. This humble place is cranking out some serious burger heat. We rolled in late one night after the wife finished a photo shoot nearby; I ordered the Gusto Burger - a double patty situation with all the sizzle. Thin, flat patties with crispy, lacy edges made it a textbook smash. Seasoned with mustard and pepper, layered with caramelized onions, pickles, and an extra hit of mustard - it was a full-flavor punch to the taste buds. She had the Backyard Burger, which is essentially the same setup but stacked high with all the veggies. Same great flavor just a little more garden party. The fries are hand-cut daily and fried to golden, salty perfection. But if you're the type to go all out, then you gotta check out the loaded tots--they look like an entire meal disguised as a side dish. Bottom line: Gustos lives up to all the hype. Smash burger fans, this one is absolutely worth the detour.

As I continue exploring what's new in the DFW food scene, I stumbled upon a local smash burger spot in Fort Worth. I quickly glanced at a few photos on Yelp--obviously not closely enough--because what I thought I saw and what I was served were two very different things. I ordered the Backyard Burger with cheesy tots since they were sold out of fries. Ugh... I should have left then, but I was hungrier than a little kid who'd been playing outside all day. I requested no bacon, but I was told, "No substitutions." I thought to myself, "What?" I didn't want to substitute anything--I just wanted to remove an item. With the music blasting and a growing line behind me, I didn't have the energy to explain the obvious. I simply removed the bacon once my burger arrived. I will say everything was seasoned, but the presentation and assembly were a disaster. The bun-to-meat ratio was completely off, and the lettuce was chopped instead of whole leaves, making it difficult for the patties and tomatoes to stay in place. I finally gave up and ate the patties without the greasy buns. And don't even get me started on those god-awful tots--the semi-melted cheese ruined the entire dish. This meal felt like something I would've eaten during my college days. It was giving low-budget vibes for sure, but the price was NOT. Yelpers, I definitely wouldn't recommend this spot unless your taste buds are dead or you simply enjoy mediocre food.

The food here is very tasty! It is by no means healthy, but that's why it tastes so good. The staff were helpful and friendly, and the overall vibe was that of a college burger joint. Even the prices were reasonable. This place would have been five stars but they seem to have an issue with flies as evidenced by the fly fans on every table. I would rather they fix the root cause than provide those fans. Otherwise, the burgers & fries are great!

Went in on July 23rd 2025 during my business trip. Burger was cool. Really greasy and soggy. Jalapeño poppers were fire! Poppers were crunchy! Service wasnt the best, not really all that friendly or welcoming as other places i have been. And it sucks i cant contact these people by phone either. I am trying to expense a receipt, and needing to get a copy however they are not responding. I emailed it to my business account however it did not go through

Boy! What even is this?? The most amazing smash burger ever? YUP! I could stop there, but I'll go ahead and elaborate a little. If you've never been, it would be easy to miss as Gustos has repurposed an old house into their restaurant. Super cool! It's kinda small inside, but also roomy...if that makes any sense. There are several small tables, a few big ones, a few bar top tables, and a porch with additional seating outside. You order at the bar, fill your own drinks, and someone brings you your food. They were super busy when I visited today during lunch with some friends. The guy taking orders - I wish I knew his name - was very upbeat and even remembered my drink order (yes, they do have a full bar menu) when I came back up. Actually, every employee I encountered was nice, even with how crowded and busy they were. I typically never finish my burger, especially with a double patty, which is this "standard" burger. I will usually still order a single with a smash burger because it's usually too much food. The man taking our order reassured me, the only way to order, would be the double patty since these patties are SMASHED. Ok, I took his advice. He was right. The patties are thin and crispy, I mean literally perfect. I love the crunch around the outside of the patty. The cheese could have been a little more melted, but the overall flavor was perfect on the Gusto burger. I also ordered a side of tots, which were perfectly crispy and seasoned just right. This was still a lot of food so I ended up taking half of my meal home. Don't walk....run to this place! But just be warned, it will be busy! Even in yucky weather, people came in droves during lunch hour on a Friday. The line moved quickly though.

Literally the worst burger ever. Grilled onions did not taste like grilled onions. Tater tota were too crispy, sauce had no flavor either. Took 25+ to give us our food. Bun was cold. Ambiance was okay, a little too noisy in my opinion. 0/10.

I had high hopes for this place but unfortunately I will not be back. Walking in was overwhelming. So much noise, a lot of people in a small space, not super clear on where to order, loud music, dark and everything was just unorganized. You order at the bar counter, they give you a number and you pick a seat. We ordered a cheeseburger, double cheeseburger and fries. We waited for over 45 minutes, and asked if our order was coming out. The girl seemed confused when we told her what time we placed our order and said she was going to check. We could hear people at the bar canceling their food orders and others were getting frustrated. We finally got our food after almost an hour. Fries were cold, stale, and not seasoned. Burgers were really greasy and not hot. Honestly the only good thing about the burger were the pickles. Definitely need a better sense of direction for the ordering process, and better communication with customers on how long the wait is going to be for food.

This place was awesome. Best burgers in the dfw area. Hands down. There were a few flies but that's because it is an inside/outside establishment. They have live performances and open mic. The atmosphere is laid back chill

This burger tastes very similar to a Steak n Shake burger, in all the right ways! The patties have a nice sear and buns have a touch of sweetness (brioche?). Although I was not blown away with the tots or fries, this will definitely be a mainstay for me moving forward. It rivals my favorite burger spots in Ft. Worth!

Came here twice in a week so you know it's GOOD! Best smash burgers I've had since moving to Fort Worth & the karaoke/Dj was a plus. Old school hip hop was playing so it was right up my alley! Also, everyone was nice! We love that. Love that this is in the neighborhood!

I would say they're on the verge of a 3/4 but we sat at the bar expecting it to be more full service but it lacked. Got up to get my own ketchup, never got drinks refilled, and took a minute for bartenders to come back to us. I got the sweet heat burger and it was delicious except it was very greasy but the tots were perfectly crispy. The environment was on the casual side, Dj playing a bit loud but expected on the weekends, there was tables but all seemed to be occupied so only option was the bar. Would come and try some of their items when I'm craving something heavy and greasy.

Food- Had a single patty burger and fries. Both were quite tasty. Service- Ordered at the bar, grabbed a seat outside and our food was soon brought out to us. Friendly staff. Love the simplicity of this spot. It's a true easy hangout with friends. Patio seating, or indoors- both bar and other seating arrangements.

Family has been wanting to try this spot for a while now so we did. Parking is limited in the area and our wait was 35 minutes but by the time the food got to us it had been an hour. That's how busy this place was for a Saturday night. All in all the food was delicious! The seating area is a little small but they do have outdoor seating with heaters, but the heaters were not turned on. They also have some pretty cool at inside.

Didn't like this place. However it wasn't because they did anything wrong I want to make that clear. This place is set up for a certain crowd and I can respect that. The crowd is for heavy drinkers that need grease to sober up. I was not ready. The burgers are greasy af like I couldn't finish my burger. Same with the tots. The overall flavor of the burger was good but the grease took that ting over. This place is for drinkers not for a birthday lunch on a sunny afternoon. I think the people that visit already knew what they are getting into so I see the 5 star ratings. For me I can't eat that much grease and I hate a la carte places. Give me a damn combo sheesh.

Went for a quick bite on a Saturday afternoon. Super cute old house on magnolia with parking in the back. Grabbed some gustos sliders and tots to go. I sat at the bar while waiting and the bar tender was super friendly and we chatted about their THC seltzers. Very cool dude and lots of great bar choices. I believe his name was Kaden, really friendly and helpful! The music was good, crowd wasn't too bad but line went fast. I don't live far so I was excited to take it home and relax. The sliders were amazing and tots were cooked just right. I will definitely be back to try more and hangout longer. The vibe was really fun and definitely can see myself sitting at the bar for lunch or dinner again.

First timer at Gusto's Burger Bar! It was a very chill, down-to-earth experience. I found this place via TikTok for the best burgers in the area! It was packed when I went, so that was a good sign. If you're new like I was, it can be a bit confusing figuring out which door to enter, where to order, where the menu is, and how seating works. I found a menu and told the gentleman with the fancy mustache at the counter it was my first time. He went over everything and gave great recommendations and service. I ordered the "Gusto Burger" double with the sauce on the side and tater tots. There was about a 20-25 minute wait. I wanted to sit outside but couldn't take the flies, and inside wasn't much better. What an absolute treat this well-cooked-to-excellent smash burger was! 8/10 because, although it was delicious , it was a little heavy on the pepper and the tots were salty. The sauce by itself I'd give a 5/10; it wasn't the best for me. Overall, it was a very good experience and meal, minus the flies. Thank you, Gusto's Burger Bar, for a well-made burger. I'd definitely be back.

My husband and I got the gusto burger. We personally didn't feel like it lived up to the hype. The burger wasn't that seasoned and there really was no sauce on it. The service was mid at best and the ambiance was really weird... not sure how this place got a high rating. JD's burgers off of Camp Bowie is a 1,000 times better. I'd check that out .

One of the better smash burgers in the area. I am usually partial to a thicker patty, but when a place can get the cheese melted just right, and the other components in their proper proportions, a good smashburger is hard to beat. GUSTOS has great burgers , addictive fries and a great patio. Order a beer off their extensive draft list and watch Magnolia St go by as you enjoy one of the better burgers in town.

Best smash burger I have found in DFW. It's no frills, casual and delicious! You order at the counter. Will definitely be going back when I'm craving a smash burger.

Let's just get to the point. GUSTOS is delicious. Smash burgers have become popular in the last several years, and these folks do the style as good or better than anyone. The patties have that smash crisp all around the edges. Every time. They also have Impossible patties for those who don't do meat. My wife loves it. And those nuggets are delicious, too. They have a full bar with a pretty good beer selection. They get pretty crowded, but the staff has been very friendly every time we have eaten there. On a gorgeous day, the large patio will be packed. Also, they have had live music a couple of the times we went, so that's likely a regular thing on the weekend. Overall, this is a great place and it fits right in on Magnolia.

If you haven't been here yet, you're behind! Gustos has the best burgers I've ever had before and somehow they keep outdoing themselves. Nothing beats their smash burger style creations. The sweet heat burger goes crazy. It's salty, sweet, spicy, full of umami and never leaves you hungry. Their gustos style tots are amazing and so saucy and cheesy. The nuggets are such a hidden gem, freshly fried and served with your choice of dipping sauce (I loooveee the ranch and honey mustard here). The team is extremely kind and friendly, and they are always willing you help you figure out what to order whether it's your first or tenth time here. It has been awesome to watch them grow from so many different locations and I still remember trying their food truck parked outside a hotel months ago and feeling like I had struck gold. I am so excited that they have an official location now and could not be happier that these amazing burgers are local to Fort Worth. It's not a meal to grab before you go on a hike or anything and it will put you to sleep if you order as much as we did. This is a treat yourself meal and it feels like winning a prize. So - treat yourself!!!

Me and my hubby bookmarked this place a few weeks ago and I saw nothing but raved reviews on the Fort Worth foodies fb page. So when we finally got the chance to go I was so excited! The restraint is a house converted into a cute restaurant. They have seating indoor and outdoor. The staff was very nice and we got our food in a timely manner. We ordered two gusto burgers, tots, and fries. The burger was good but nothing really stuck out to me. The gusto sauce and everything just blended into one. I had to eat the burger fast, because it was getting soggy. The fries were delicious. Sadly, me and my husband felt sick an hour later and still recovering from it. Not the cleanest place but I always go in optimistic. But it's been 2 days and my body has been aching since that meal.

It's definitely a vibe ! And the best burgers in Fort Worth. We had a great experience, The service was very welcoming, the cashier helped us order. They have some Amazing burgers and fries though. They even had a live dj and also served alcohol beverages, but we didn't get to try one this time. But I will definitely be back next time in I'm in Fort Worth!!!

Ordered the Gusto burger, backyard burger, and loaded tots. Loved everything! Patio is dog friendly and plenty of space. My only complaint is that all of the outdoor TVs were covered.

Stopped in yesterday (2/19/24) for lunch on the patio with the weather being so beautiful. Loved the location, right on Magnolia, several areas for parking and people watching. Greeted immediately upon walking in, it was already a great vibe with the DJ going and the perfect weather. Tried Gustos Burger for the boyfriend, I had the backyard burger, and kiddo had chicken tenders. Cashier/bartender was so helpful, just an awesome attitude and never made us feel rushed...especially if being our first time. Ordered, took a seat outside and waited. The sun was beaming and this was a PEFECT lunch date. Burgers were delicious. Nice charred pieces of meat from the grill, gooey, melty, flavorful cheese. Perfectly layered, slightly greasy but not overly. Just the perfect, all around burger. Kiddos nuggets (according to her) were fire! They had the perfect breading, thick pieces of white meat, and piping hot so certain fresh. The honey mustard was on point and the ranch was just like Wingstop and who doesn't love their ranch??!! All in all an AMAZING lunch choice and so freaking glad we chose Gustos. Hands down, one of the best burgers and we will be back very soon!

I always have this spiel about how everyone can make a good burger but so few people make a great one. Well, Gusto's, you are now one of the few great ones in my mind. The beef was smoky and beefy and tasted totally unique. Most burgers, I forget in a few days. This one, I can still remember the flavor weeks later. I got the Double Gusto and my husband got the Double Cheeseburger. Side of tots (deep fried yummm), side of fries. The fries were okay but I admit I ended up liking the tots so much more that I went back and ordered a side for myself... that they didn't even charge me for because they wanted me to be happy with my order. Nice. Ambiance was bustling, laid back, and fun. We sat for 3 hours chatting with another couple, ordered beers at the bar periodically, met one of the owners. Everyone was super friendly. Can't wait to go back. I am anxious to try the chicken nuggs/sandwich next.

Great place for a beer and a cheeseburger. Chicken Nuggs pretty good as well. We sat in the patio section. It had plenty of shade and fans which made it totally bearable in peak Summer heat. I'd come again.

The fries used to be hand cut, and now are not worth it. Would have happily paid more for the better product. As far as the space, usually there is more than one source of music in earshot, which is annoying. The drink selection is meh. Went downhill quick.
