What to Order
Donald McRonald
A classic, basic burger featuring a patty with a delicious crispy crust, served on an ideally textured bun.
"I got the Donald McRonald, the most basic one, the patty had crispy crust on it that was delicious, the bun was the ideal texture and firmness, and the fries were perfectly cooked."
Dunstan Ramsay
California Classic
An insanely tasty burger with perfectly cooked patties, melted cheese, and a soft, slightly sweet bun, showcasing balance and quality.
"The burger was insanely tasty. Perfectly cooked patties, melted cheese, and a soft, slightly sweet bun that held everything together without falling apart."
Dylan
Super Duper Fries
These crinkle-cut fries are dangerously addictive, often praised for being hot, crispy, and generously portioned.
"The Super Duper Fries was a hit, it was very filling as well."
Melanie
Coney Fries
A flavorful side of fries topped with chili and cheese, described as a must-have for something different and satisfying.
"Also, the coney fries are a must have."
Mohammad Umar Nadeem
Pepper Strawberry Sundae
A surprisingly good and unique dessert option, offering a delightful combination of pepper and strawberry flavors.
"We also ordered their Pepper Strawberry Sundae which was surprisingly good."
Melanie
Malted Chocolate Ice Cream
A delicious and quickly devoured ice cream flavor, perfect for a sweet ending to your meal.
"We tried the malted chocolate and it was eaten quickly."
Becx A.
Organic Wines
A great selection of organic, wild, and orange wines, offering a pleasant surprise for wine enthusiasts.
"The wine list was a very pleasant surprise with a selection you don’t typically find at restaurants (orange wines and pet nat for sparkling)."

Inside Scoop
- Expect significant wait times, especially on weekends; put your name on the online waitlist well in advance (1.5-2 hours).
- If you're on the waitlist, stay close to the area as you only have a few minutes to arrive once texted.
- The beef patties are halal, but they are cooked on the same grill as bacon, leading to cross-contamination for strict halal diets.
- Consider visiting right at opening to avoid the long lines.
- The small space contributes to the wait, but the atmosphere is consistently praised.
