Worst service ever. I would give it a 0 but that's not possible. We made a reservation and they did not have the table ready. They brought our food out separately over 2 and a half hours with one person not getting their meal until 2.5 hours after she ordered. Drinks were never refilled. My side did not come out until an hour after my meal. They brought me the wrong meal. They then did not know who ordered what and could not bring us our checks for an additional 30 minutes.

Business response:

So sorry your experience was not as it should have been. As pretty much all downtown businesses experienced a pretty rough drought from this past Thanksgiving through the first week in January, I am quite pleased to say we are not going anywhere. We are knee deep in "Burger Week" and are trying our best to satisfy the crowds. Yes, wait time is longer than our usual wait. When everything is done from scratch and our burgers are full half-pounders and I might add, not smashed flat, it takes time. They should not have been cold... read more
