🍽️ We Hate to Have to Make This Post, But…

Unfortunately, on more than two occasions, we’ve had situations in our dining room where public displays of affection have gone a little too far.

Let us be clear — we have absolutely no issue with a hand hold, a simple hug, or even a quick little kiss. We love seeing people enjoy time together ❤️

However, this is still a public restaurant where families, friends, and other guests are trying to enjoy dinner. Our staff is also here to do their jobs — not awkwardly navigate around moments that should probably be saved for private 😅

Keep it cute, keep it classy, and save the Olympic-level PDA for after dinner 😉

We appreciate everyone helping us keep a comfortable, respectful atmosphere for all of our guests and staff ❤️🍴

Nothing fancy… just fresh, local burgers done right. ❤️
