Cooks little spot, not great parking so take an Uber or lift to get her so you can have a drink as well. The atmosphere is pretty cool, open the kitchen so you can see the food being cooked to order. There is space for outside eating as well, it was raining (go figure) so we are inside. The price is to be expected in the area but I feel the quality meets the pricing here, the burger we had "The Lovett", hack tip take out the mustered and have the jalapeno jelly and it makes the burgers pop. Get the cheese balls but use the fry sauce instead of the marinara, not saying the marinara is bad but the fry sauce is that much better with these as a package. They do have soft drinks and bottles of soda. The Cajun fries hit real nice with the Fry sauce. Overall a great spot, other types of food pretty close to each other on one block so you can have options but for burgers this was a pretty good hit. The kids had a regular cheese burger and they really said it was great all the way around. Total for our burger, two cheese burgers for the kids with fries for two of them and the wife and I to share, and a whole meal for my father to go also including fries and the same The Lovett burger and two bottles of cream soda was $81 without tip. Full transparency, we can't eat in the Portland area for under $100 normally, unless it's fast food.

This was by far the best hamburger I have ever had! I cannot remember the name of my hamburger but it is the one with jalapeño jelly and cream cheese spread. Fries are good too! It is a must have if you are wanting a good hamburger 🍔!

Burgers were done well. Good overall flavor, French fries are hand made but they had definitely been over cooked. Which is ridiculous after taking all that time to make properly. Cow fries had too much garlic IMO. Cheese balls were okay. not what we were expecting. Kinda a sweet/Cream cheese flavor on the aftertaste.

The food was good. Waitstaff were very attentive. We upgraded the side to garlic frys. Try the fry sauce, it's actually good. I had the Jala-Moo-ya, it isn't spicy at all. 2nd meal was Hawaii 503. Both are great choices.

This was our first visit since the pandemic, and we were once again very pleased with the food, service, and overall atmosphere. We were also very happy to see that the pandemic didn't kill such a great spot for some delicious food and beer. Our server was absolutely fantastic! She was very friendly, smiling, and willing to help us get whatever we needed in a very efficient manner.

This is a good place to go for a great tasting burger. The staff is friendly and fun. The atmosphere is relaxed and the food is good. The kids had sliders, and I had the chupacabra. It was a little messy but delicious. We also tried the cheese balls. They were not the fried cheese curds we were expecting. They were a blend of soft cheeses that were lightly breaded and fried served with marinara sauce. They turned out to be tasty and enjoyable.

The food is good. The burgers are good and the fries are awesome. Friendly staff. Comfortable setting in downtown Gresham. My go to is make your own cheese burger with sautéed onions, guacamole, bacon and fried egg. Service is a little slow. Always crowded. Good for lunch or casual dinner.

Amazing! The servers are all very friendly and kind. I usually order the monthly special because 9/10 times they are great. Tonight I ordered the "Cowlin vs Moo-Tang." It was probably the best burger I've had in 40 years of life. *Tip: Upgrade to the Cow or Cajun Fries.

Delicious burgers and fries. Little place - the only detractor on the atmosphere was that it was bitter cold inside, making the eating experience a little less than desirable. Staff was friendly and attentive.

Service and atmosphere is great. The food is pretty good. The truffle fries are good but was a tad under cooked. The burger meat and flavor is good, but the bun is such low quality. Throwing it on the griddle to warm it or a pretzel bun would transform their burgers.
