One of the best smash burgers we have ever had! They use local, pasture-raised meats and local produce. Try their rip fries (seasoned with Red Hot Riplets chips). During Covid-19, you can do their version of a 'drive-thru.' Pull your car up and get in line. One of their employees will stop by your car window and give you the low down on how to order takeout. Worth the wait! They are located inside Bluewood Brewing Company located at the corner of Cherokee and Lemp.
