The staff are friendly but a bit slow. The restaurant is cute inside, but when we went it heated up very quickly...there was no fresh air coming in!
The burgers were overcooked and dry. They put raw bacon on our burgers. By "raw" I mean the bacon was not fried and crispy, it was lukewarm and flabby.
In my view the ratio of bread to burger is too high (too much bread) and the bread itself was already a bit stale and dry. It was not typical burger bread...it was some bio-healthy stuff. The fries were ok.

altought the food is yummy the service is very poor.
we sat in the second floor and the waiter came with the menus. in a normal restaurant you order drinks first and take your time to order the food. the waiter told us he wanted to take the order with drinks and food all together so he didnt have to run up and down the stairs. saying this, i went down and asked if in that moment it was possible to order the drinks and the waiter said no, even if I was standing in front of him in the ground floor. this is ridiculous, I am in the business and I know how unacceptable it is. if me and my friends were rude people we could just tell him to F off, because this is not the way you run a business. also, his body language was screaming I HATE MY JOB , once he was wearing very warm clothes in a warm day, no tray.... like this of course you dont want to run up and down all the time.... its a pitty once the food is delicious. i dont fell like going back there anytime soon. i dont like to beg to order when i am paying a considerable amount of money to be there.
