Sheeesh! The burger! With the fried cheese! Get it ! Mike said he wanted to elevate the already beloved burger and he definitely did ! Two nice and thin smash burger patties topped with nice thin layer of pan fried shredded sheesh that almost takes on the consistency of a thick potato chip; Fire ! The Brussels sprout side was just as good! The lemon pepper wings were better than any other lemon pepper wings I’ve had-crispy crispy without even having to ask ! The jerk chicken bowl my friend ordered looked amazing, so did the shrimp bowl ! I heard the vegan bowl was very good as well. I’ll be back soon! Even the vibes in here were solid, including the enclosed backyard area! - Justin Maxwell
