How would you describe your burger?

Master-of-Cow:  Delicious flavor and mixture of cheddar cheese, bacon and BBQ sauce.

3 Dees:  Fab!

Shaniqua:  Delicious!  Good BBQ sauce.  Good amount of bacon.  Lots of cheese.  Well made.

Beaner:  Delish!  Avocado spread and sundried tomato was great!  Sweet potato fries were perfect (crunch outside, soft inside).

Seven:  Overall very good, could use more bleu cheese and a little over done

Spinderella:  Turkey:  Sort of “processed”.  Napa:  Amazing!  Need to stay away from t-burgs!

kt:  Turkey:  bland.  Clearly I am a beef burger kinda gal.  Napa:  Great flavor!  I love when all of the toppings blend so well together to create the perfect bite!  I must say that the focaccia bun was a little too fluffy for me though.  The waffle fries and sweet potato fries were both amazingly delicious.

Shaniqua:  It was where Master-of-Cow and I had our first date – aww!  The endless mimosa was amazing!  (*Shaniqua and Master-of-Cow are getting hitched in a few short months!!!) 

Beaner:  Lemon in the water was a nice touch!  Bloody Mary was great, perfect spices, the pickle was a nice touch too!

Seven:  kt & Beaner dressed like fairies (*some say fairies, I say GLORIOUS! Haha)

Spinderella:  Beaner & kt were decked out in pink!  So fun!
