In my opinion, they have the "best burgers in town!" No ketchup required! I do believe its real ground hamburger and NOT a frozen patty:) Ducks wontons are sooo delicious too! Fri nights are good for getting in on duck and horse races for a chance to win $50, $150 or $200 prize money. There is also a meat raffle.

My hangout! This is the home of the famous "Bridge" where you can watch people line up on top of the bridge to group jump off into the water. It's quite entertaining:) Best outdoor atmosphere, kids playground, great food, live music with a chill vibe. My favorite food is the coconut shrimp with marmalade dip. The pulled pork with coleslaw on it is also yummy!
