Elisa was our server and came in hot (but not too hot) with waters and drink orders almost immediately. She checked on us just enough to be attentive without hovering: basically the Goldilocks of service.
Now, the drinks, because priorities.
Peach Smash: Maker’s Mark, peach, lemon, mint. The bourbon shows up fashionably late but makes a respectable appearance. The lemon keeps everything bright and balanced so it doesn’t wander into peachy cough syrup territory. Solid, easy sipper, would be perfect for a summer patio brunch.
Velvet Sunset: Ketel One Botanical Grapefruit Rose, lemon juice, Chambord, simple syrup, soda. This one was a miss for me. I’m blaming the Chambord, it and I are simply not on speaking terms. That said, hubby happily drank it, so clearly this cocktail has its people… I am just not one of them.
Cherry Squirt: Skyy Cherry vodka, pomegranate syrup, Fever Tree sparkling Sicilian lemonade, cherry. IT’S. SO. GOOD. If Sonic’s cherry limeade grew up, got a fake ID, and learned how to behave in public, this would be it. Perfectly balanced, not too sweet, dangerously drinkable. I would’ve loved a little more fizz, but I like my drinks bubbly enough to question my life choices.
And then… the burger.
Build Your Own Burger on an artisan bun with an Angus chuck patty, bleu cheese, bacon, sautéed onions, pickle, spicy mayo, and tots. We added chili and cheese to the tots because we aren't monsters. After a recent burger letdown elsewhere, this restored my faith in ground beef. Perfectly pink, insanely juicy, cheese melting everywhere like it understood the assignment. The spicy mayo had a sneaky kick that absolutely worked with everything instead of overpowering it.
In short: great service, cocktails with personality, and a burger that deserves a standing ovation. We will absolutely be back, and I'll probably ordering that Cherry Squirt again. And again. And probably again.
