My best friend and I were cruising past a bunch of great options, and I'm not really sure what made us stop here, but we are very happy we did! AMAZING! we had to buy a second round because it was so good! Definitely recommend stopping by and trying more than one menu option! You will be happy you did!Vegetarian options: The Weenie (Veggie):Wheat protein, bell peppers, fennel, eggplant and fresh garlic.

Had to try their classic hot dog with the chili! Staff was super friendly and offered to pour chili on the dog until I said “when” and it was delicious! I’ll have the give the other ones a try in the future
