Service was great! Smash burgers were on the dry side. Wish they used meat with more fat content. If you are in to dry smash burgers you will love them. Just not my preference. Get the ranch wedges!

This is one of my favorite Tampa restaurants! I've never had a negligible dish. The service and atmosphere is great. Usually I have a hard time hearing, but it was a full restaurant tonight, andI was able to hear the table conversation. Can't speak more highly of this place.
