“ Melissa, the owner, was so great! Such great food, drinks and environment! Don't drive by, stop in next time you're in the area! ”
“ We have been here a few times when staying at Treasure Island. We looooooove their burgers. Great dive bar vibe and a lot of options on the menu. I don’t believe they have tap beer available but to be honest with you, for the location and customers it makes sense. They have endless options of bottles and cans. Even writing this, now I want to go pull some tabs and have a great burger. ”

“ My dad and I ate here on our way to a conference at the casino. Though it doesn't look like much, looks are certainly deceiving! The owner was the only one working, and we started off as the only one in there. She was so kind and talked to us like we were old friends. We each got burgers, and they were fantastic. I got the California burger, and the vegetables were fresh and crispy. I would definitely recommend this place for a friendly face and great burgers! ”
