Very unique ordering style restaurant. You will need to pay attention when menu is explained. Food is fresh, and local. Burgers are smashed thin. Best fish tacos I have ever had. It is attached to a bar, and a store, called Mac's Local Buys. The store has a selection of local, organic, and humane food, body, and home products. Great for the person that shops selectively with their conscience.
