I've only had lunch here so far. Cuban is delicious. Smashburger is good. Friendly service.

Very cool little gem tucked away on 3rd St. in Alton IL. Excellent atmosphere with great martinis and authentic gumbo!

The new owners are fantastic! Food was out of this world good, prices are very reasonable, live music was great and it wasn’t loud so my partner and I could still hold a conversation. Julie was our waitress and was spot on! I will be back ASAP

You guys, this place hands down has the best Smashburger me and my old man have ever had! You would not think that a martini bar would have the best Smashburger but they do and they're calamari was pretty on point and I had an amazing pasta dish! I've been told they're crab cakes are amazing also! I'm excited to go back and try some martinis and also some more food we were also able to bring our 7-month-old son in whereas before it was only 21 and up! We will be going back very soon I suggest anyone who loves a good burger come and try the Smashburger here!!!
