The burger lineup is packed with flavor, from classic cheeseburgers to creative combos that hit all the right notes. The Jalapeño Cream Cheese Burger brings just the right amount of heat, while the Bourbon Bacon Burger balances smoky, sweet, and savory with thick-cut bacon and a bourbon glaze. The Portobello Mushroom Burger is another standout, piled high with mushrooms, melted Swiss, and garlic aioli.

Each burger comes out hot, juicy, and generously topped, and the portions don’t hold back. Add a side of buffalo chips or golden tater tots, and it’s a full-on comfort food feast. Most diners here walk away full, happy, and already planning a return trip.

For those not in a burger mood (or just looking to mix things up) the menu offers plenty of standout options. The steak salad is a solid choice, topped with tender grilled steak, sautéed mushrooms, bleu cheese crumbles, and a splash of Worcestershire over fresh greens.

There’s also the prime rib dip, served hot with thin-sliced prime rib and rich au jus for dipping, or a full 16 oz ribeye, grilled to order with bold flavor and generous marbling.
