Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking is limited in NoMad, especially late; nearby paid garages are the most reliable option after 6pm.
Dress code: Casual to smart casual—jeans and sneakers are fine, but sport coats or polished tops won’t feel out of place.
Noise level: Lively to loud during games—conversation is possible at the table, tougher near the bar when TVs are on.
Weekend wait: 20–40 minutes without a reservation, longer during big games
Weekday lunch: Little to no wait most days
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes—salads and a few veg-friendly mains or sides are available.
Vegan options: Limited—can piece together sides or modified dishes, but not a core strength.
Gluten-free options: Some options available—salads and bun-less burgers; cross-contamination possible during busy service.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Better for a casual, low-pressure meetup than an intimate first date—the TVs and energy keep things easy but not romantic.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes, especially on weeknights or earlier in the evening; aim for off-peak hours if there’s a game on.
Is it kid-friendly? Earlier in the day, yes; late night skews adult and sports-focused with a louder crowd.
Best For
Better for: Watching games late with a group while still getting a solid burger and steady drinks.
Skip if: You want a quiet, focused burger experience or a date-night atmosphere—choose a dedicated burger spot or a calmer dining room instead.
