Nobody Told Me
8.0
A cocktail-forward room where the cheeseburger is the most reliable anchor when you want something satisfying without turning the night into a full dinner crawl. The move is to pair the burger with one snacky plate, then let the bar program carry the rest.
Must-Try Dishes:
Cheeseburger, Jerk Chicken Wings, Fried Chicken Sliders
Scores:
Value: 7.2
Service: 8.2

What makes it special: A drinks-first spot where the cheeseburger is the clutch order.
Who should go: Cocktail people who still want a real meal
When to visit: Weeknights for easier seating
What to order: Cheeseburger, jerk wings, one seasonal cocktail
Insider tip: Keep it to burger + one side plate—don’t overbuild the table.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking only; limited and competitive in the evenings. Rideshare or public transit is the easier play.
Dress code: Smart casual leaning dressy—jeans are fine, but elevated tops and footwear fit the room.
Noise level: Moderate to lively—conversation is easy early, louder as the night progresses.
Weekend wait: 30–45 minutes without a reservation, longer during peak cocktail hours
Weekday lunch: Typically no wait or short bar wait; seating is easier earlier in the evening
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Limited—one or two vegetable-forward plates; best for light eating rather than a full meal
Vegan options: Very limited—snack-level options only; not ideal as a primary choice
Gluten-free options: Limited—some plates can be modified; ask about bun alternatives or sauce swaps
Best For
Better for: Date nights, girls’ night energy, and cocktails-first plans where food is a supporting player
Skip if: You want a food-driven burger destination, family-friendly dining, or broad dietary accommodation
