Description
The three- to four-ounce patties are smashed with onions on a flat grill, yielding a juicy bite without smoky char. Beyond the standard burgers, options include patty melts, mushroom toppings, and crunchy, beer-battered onion rings. The setup is highly intimate, containing only eight to ten bar-style seats. Because the kitchen operates in such close quarters, grill smoke and cooking smells tend to linger in the dining area, though the quick, friendly crew keeps the energy light and welcoming.
