I've eaten here only twice, once I ordered an Ahi burger and beers which were at happy hour pricing. Most recently we ordered " Impossible Burgers" which took longer to emerge from kitchen than anticipated. We killed two appetizers ( a delicious spicy edamame, and boring battered frozen sweet potato fries) and some beers waiting for the burgers.It was pleasant on the outdoor patio, and the place only had a few active tables going on inside on a Sunday eve.

Despite being the most expensive menu items, the "Impossible Burger" preparation seemed an afterthought, arriving nearly 30 minutes later grey and dry inside unlike the marketing materials I had seen prior which raved about the high moisture content and pink fleshy faux hemoglobin rich interior. The exterior of the patty was crisp, but closer to blackened than a well cared for burger. The suggested menu serving was with American Cheese but we opted for white cheddar which while melted, seemed had gone long past mere bubbling and seemed to me almost cooked away and evaporated on the surface of the burger.

We devoured our burgers anyway despite any apprehensions. I was a little disappointed and will have to go back and see if this was an aberration or what the hype was all about. Our server was attentive, helpful and polite, and said "Impossible Foods" trained them to crisp their genetically modified veggie burgers on purpose. Really?
