Once you walk into this restaurant, you notice the picnic tables and the bar. Each table has ketchup and Japanese mayo.
This place is known for their milkshakes. I ordered a mini gourmet Reese Peanut Butter Cup. For appetizer, we shared a large order of sweet potato fries. For entree, I ordered a mushroom beef burger. My friend ordered the classic burger.
I have to admit my burger was pretty tasty. The juicy red beef was sandwich between two brioche bread. It has onion marmalade, lettuce and porcini sauce. My friend enjoyed her classic burger; they didn't skimp on the beef and it was prepared to perfection. Both burgers came with a side of fried pickles. It was pretty much their version of onion rings but pickles. I wish they gave us more. We LOVED the fries....it's a must, if you decide to go here. The fries were crunchy yet not greasy. It wasn't too salty and it comes with a side of sweet mustard dressing for dipping.
I recommend the shakes...it was yummy. I would get it again but in a larger size. It's sweet but not overloaded with sugar. It was creamy and it hits the spot, if you crave something sweet.
