Had some late last year, ate it within 30 minutes of buying it, it was dry AF, I’ve had much better ones as leftovers the next day.

Not worth the trip, and mos def not to die for.

The original owner sold the place in 2009. I believe people when they say it was good, I’m sure it was, but it’s a pretty bland steak. It tastes like whatever you put on it.

IMO they are terrible. They're one of the (IMO way too fucking many) places that minces the meat into itty-bitty teeny-tiny little bits, a style that I detest... and, to make matters worse, they do that and pile the micro-meat on the grill long before you order.

If I wanted what is essentially a ground beef sandwich I'd have ordered a ground beef sandwich.
