Well I for one can't speak about the availabilty of a pickle, but the fries are pretty good and I spoke with John (the sous chef) and Mylo can get a burger sans pork if that is what he wants. Naga was correct, this isn't really a burger joint but they do a very good job making a German burger. Perhaps I'll see you guys there.... But for the $$ it's darn hard to beat.

I thought the flavor of the cheeseburger was amazing! It wasn't a huge patty but it was enough. They have a 1 pounder available but we all got the standard one. I had them leave the sauerkraut off mine.
Price is excellent - Hamburger and fries for $6.50... on the lunch menu.
I can still taste the flavor of the burger... it was VERY GOOD.
The following people showed up:
eVader and his wife
LornaKnits (she really does knit - teaches classes, sells product and writes books and magazine articles).
Davburr and a friend (Jerry)?
Carnivore
Allen
Am I missing anyone?
Everyone seemed happy. I will definitely be back. I know my dad will love this place!
It was great to meet some people I didn't know. We all sat at the bar and ate and talked.

I care about pickles, but I actually prefer slices on the burger over spears to eat seperately.
I would rather be Backpacking

One word - outstanding!

That was a very favorable burger with very unique tastes, and it was cooked perfectly. I enjoyed every single bite. It had the best sauerkraut I've ever tasted, I finally like the stuff now!

Two thumbs up here

The ambiance is pretty cool too, and the service fantastic, that bartender was a helluva good guy. The selection of European beers on draft is pretty good too.

I'll be back

It was a tasty burger. Mine with the kraut and cheese was $6.90. I didn't look at the menu to check other items, but this is definately a good value.
Meat was tasty - lots of flavor and well cooked. The cheese was nicely melted and covered the burger patty. The kraut and sauce make this a three-nakpin affair.
The bun is standard - nothing special there.
I prefer the fries at Manderes, but no real complaints here. They were well cooked and fresh.

Service was excellent. Allan took good care of us.
Nice meeting those I saw. I got there a bit later than most. I didn't expect as much converstation about classic Mustangs.

I am much more enthusiastic about this place now that I have been, and I suspect CW will appeciate that they have a selection of boot style drinking apparatus (2L).
