Valley Burgers and Brew — Restaurant in River Vale

The burgers were thick and juicy and perfectly cooked with really nice bread and toppings. My biggest hang ups, the floors are in desperate need of a good cleaning... Only 1 other table was occupied the entire time we were there (not busy enough to excuse the mess). The other thing... 6.50-7.50 for a draft beer? It's just too much, especially for domestics.
