You guys must have been drunk when you ate there. I was VERY disappointed with my Empire State burger. I was hoping for something grand and delicious. NOT. I won't be back. I'm sure the Phantom Gourmet gave them a 10. One star for the Harpoon Octoberfest on tap. The other star for the friendly waitress who "beered" me at... more

This is THE place for burgers--big burgers. We also get poppers every time. The burgers are made with choice meat (plenty of interesting toppings) and cooked slowly & thoroughly. We love to sit at the bar with other regulars. Bartenders are friendly and efficient. It's the last of the old neighborhood bar scenes. And, it's clean, friendly and priced for... more
