Wonderful place to get a burger! The service was excellent; our waitress was attentive and continued to check on my party throughout our visit. The food was very good. The pretzels are one of my favorites. It's served piping hot with either a rich cheese dip or spicy mustard, hard to choose. I also had the root beer, the beginning burger (added bacon) with onion rings. The only eh was the onion rings today. They seemed alittle harder than normal and cool, but I didn't say anything because I was already getting full. Normally their onion rings are the best along with their homemade ketchup. Beware though it can get loud depending on the time of day or if it's a ND game / homegame weekend. No fault of anyone there, this is located in the commons so busy busy at times.

We chose this spot ahead of time to meet up with a friend from Michigan somewhere along our path from Cleveland to Chicago. The menu showed an Impossible burger and gluten free buns, so we figured it was a good choice for everyone meeting up. Upon arrival, the hostess was very friendly and accommodating to seat us outside on one of the patios. The menu didn't list if the gluten free buns were vegan, so I had to ask our server. Upon arrival to our table, our server, Ariana, immediately appeared irritated to be there. After she brought us our waters, one of my kids asked about the French fries and she told her in a fairly clipped manner that they were not gluten free. My daughter asked if it was simply due to a shared fryer. To which her response was to roll her eyes and tell her that it was because they had wheat in them. My daughter asked if that meant they were coated, to which she received another eye roll followed by a yes. My daughter said not to worry about a side then. When it was my turn, I asked for the Impossible burger and asked if the gluten free bun was gluten free. I got a similar response with an eye roll. I asked her what was in the fruit side and then asked if we could just have that instead since we couldn't have the fries. I was told yes. However, when I got the bill, I realized later that she charged me extra for the fruit. Which she definitely shouldn't have due to both burgers not getting fries and mine not getting a bun either. One of my kids said their food was fine, but the other was less than thrilled with her burger and the fries. Two of them thought the sauces brought out were fairly odd and didn't taste good. We asked what was in them and she told us that they don't tell them the ingredients in anything so they have no idea. That was a huge red flag to me, as not knowing the ingredients means that someone found easily get something that could cause a food related reaction. Servers should either already know the ingredients, be able to get a hold of them or know for sure if an item may be an issue for those with dietary restrictions. Overall, it wasn't the great find I was hoping it would be.

I don’t recommend the Mac & Cheese appetizer and their Bloody Mary cocktail. Their Mac & Cheese tastes AND looks like it could’ve come out of a KRAFT box, and they charge $11 for this. Their Bloody Mary is made with Tito’s Vodka— about the cheapest brand of vodka you can find on the market — despite their shelves being lined with ABSOLUT (much better brand) Come here if you’re looking for good environment and ambience, and don’t expect above-average food or drinks. On a positive note, the service here is EXCELLENT. The staff is friendly, proactive, and engaging. I just wish the food would match everything else they’re doing right.

Night place. Servers were really good. The burgers were really quality. Juicy and not overly fatty, after eating I didn't feel all slow and sluggish. I had the Provençal with the herb goat cheese and it really was fantastic. My friends got the Mexi-Cali and the Bourbon and they shared the same opinions about this being a fantastic burger. One of them also got the chili which was super thick which he really enjoys. My other friend got the triple dip, which was really good, except for the hummus which im not a fan of any hummus anyway.

Came in and it was nice. The lady greated me and then a lady at the bar said she liked my purse. I got seated and looked over the menu. The waitress was nice and patient as I tried to figure out my order. I got a Patty Melt with fries and a chocolate shake. It was ok. The bread was a bit harder than my liking and the chocolate shake tasted mainly of whipped cream. The fries were good and extra crispy. Thats my favorite kind. They were a bit to oily though.

Busy day since it’s the Garth Brooks concert. Was told 1.5 hrs and only waited an hour. We had the pretzel appetizer with beer cheese and spicy mustard. Then Mexicali burger with onion rings and Double Bacon burger. Both were delicious. Mexicali was messy with the sauce on the burger. Loved the battered onion rings. Waitress was nice and attentive on such a busy day. Bathrooms are clean but dark. Lol. Work way there again.
