Quality in every bite
While our menu might be concise, it’s crafted with a focus on quality over quantity, ensuring that every item is a standout. Every sandwich and burger we serve is crafted with care using the best ingredients available.
We take pride in our specialty items, such as our signature trashed wings. These wings are first fried and sauced with your choice of our rich Buffalo or house-made Carolina Mustard sauce, and then fried again, creating a crispy (and less messy) flavor-packed delight.
