Notable Picks

$$$$ Gold Coast
A high-energy Gold Coast steakhouse where wood-fired cooking, tableside theatrics, and a deep wine program drive the experience as much as the beef. It’s built for celebratory nights and big-ticket ordering, with the kitchen strongest when you lean into its fire-roasted steaks and seafood-forward showpieces.

What makes it special: Wood-fired steakhouse theater paired with a serious wine program.
$ Old Town
A tight, counter-service burger stand where the fries are the real repeat-order move: crisp, salty, and built to handle dips without going limp. Treat it like a focused fast-casual run—fries + burger + a shake—and you’ll get the most consistent payoff.
Must-Try Dishes: Cheeseburger, Wagyu Truffle Burger, Shoestring Fries
What makes it special: Tight, griddle-forward burger execution with minimal decision fatigue.
$$$ Gold Coast
A Gold Coast dining room where the fries land as a luxe side that matches the room: hot, aromatic, and designed for lingering. The move is to anchor your order with one main, then add the truffle fries as the shared table centerpiece.
Must-Try Dishes: Truffle fries, Burger, Lobster roll
What makes it special: Truffle fries in an iconic showroom setting.
$$ Old Town
A loud, social Old Town bar-restaurant where pizza is the anchor for groups who want a high-energy hang. It shines when you treat it like a party table: one signature pie, one salad, and drinks that match the room’s momentum.
Must-Try Dishes: Dime Piece Pizza, Trixie Salad, Jalapeño Homies
What makes it special: High-energy Old Town scene with pizza built for group ordering.

Worthy Picks

Must-Try Dishes: Benchmark Burger, Wings, Fries
What makes it special: High-capacity sports-bar energy with a dependable burger option.
$ Old Town
A high-energy Old Town bar-and-grill with an American menu that’s designed for steady ordering rather than a single knockout dish. It works best for sports, brunch-y daytime hangs, and group dinners when you want dependable classics and a lively room.
Must-Try Dishes: Burger, Chicken tenders, Mac and cheese
What makes it special: Big, lively Old Town bar for American classics and games.
$$$$ Old Town
A multi-level Old Town sports bar where the burger is a late-night-friendly anchor alongside wings and drinks. It’s best when you lean into one burger choice and one shareable side—more ‘fun bar meal’ than destination burger pilgrimage.
Must-Try Dishes: Mac Attack Burger, Sweet Bourbon Wings, Seasoned Fries
What makes it special: Late-night sports-bar burger option with a lively, multi-floor setup.
