Master Critic Review

7.8
A small, rock-leaning burger room that works as a casual date when you want something fun and contained rather than romantic in the candlelit sense. The move is one signature burger each plus one shared side, then call it—over-ordering turns it into a heavy, slow meal.
Must-Try Dishes:
Too Gouda to Be True burger, Good Night Irene burger, Garlic parm fries

Logistics & Planning
Parking: Primarily street parking on surrounding residential blocks; generally manageable early evening but tighter after peak dinner hours.
Dress code: Casual — jeans, sneakers, and a relaxed night-out look fit right in.
Noise level: Moderate — energetic but still workable for conversation without leaning in.
Weekend wait: 30–45 minutes during peak hours without arriving early
Weekday lunch: Little to no wait most days
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Limited — a veggie burger option is usually available but the menu is meat-forward.
Vegan options: Very limited — not a strong fit beyond basic modifications.
Gluten-free options: Limited — burgers can be done bunless but cross-contact should be expected.
Best For
Better for: Casual date nights where burgers are the centerpiece and you want personality over polish.
Skip if: You’re looking for a quiet, candlelit dinner or need strong vegetarian or vegan options.
