Editorial Review

Incredible cheeseburger will put the crease back on your khakis. Kitschy, noisy, preppy classic. Crowds are very, very UES-skeeze: overgrown Greeks (not the Queens kind) and Greekettes getting trashed on beer, whiskey, charred red meat. Watermelon motif, Otis on the juke. Cottage fries washed back with brew. Unpretentious, kind of loud; sidewalk seating if you actually want to have a conversation.
