The veggie burger is probably the best vegetarian burger I have had in my life, and I have had many. Apart from that, the menu is really great and the items have fun names. Our waitress was pleasant and prompt, and the atmosphere overall was inviting and fun. Definitely check it out!

Olivia was a delightful server. Her beer recommendation was spot on (the Key Lime beer was interesting for a light summer beer). We had the Pig and Goat Burger and the Not Your Daddy's Chicken Sandwich. The sweet potato fries were good, and the sweet maple dipping sauce was a great match with the salty sweet fries. The onion rings are epic. We live two hours away and are already planning our next trip back! Fun setting with old time westerns on the TV.

Wow! What the heck?! That was good!! I had the beet arugula mandarin orange cashew avocado salad with chicken and it was amazingly delicious! Had the ridiculously named watermelon mule and it was also really good. Turn down the a/c and it would be perfect!

On a road trip through Burlington, we were looking for a good burger for lunch and stumbled on to The Som. What a great find! We were seated right away and the waitress was very helpful. My children each ordered a burger and then customized it with their favorite toppings. It was really easy to build the burger you want! And they have three different types of fries. We had sweet potato fries and straight fries. The sweet potato ones were served with a dipping sauce that looked like mayonnaise or ranch but was actually a sweet frosting like sauce. Once we got over the initial shock, it was very tasty. I had the Buffalo wings. They were some of the best wings I have had...smoked and fried to a perfect level of crispness. The blue cheese dipping sauce was amazing as well. They have a bunch of local beers on tap and a variety of cocktails. Being on a road trip, I didn't try any, but they looked fun. This is now a must stop on our way through Burlington!!

One of the better food options in Burlington. The menu is pretty extensive and the cocktail list is superb for the area. There usually plenty of parking available. Prices are a little on the high side but the quality is good. On this occasion we had the birria tacos which was delicious, the meat was tender and topped with cheese that was grilled to perfection. At 4 tacos per order, it was very filling and decent value for money. Tried the yuca fries and cheese dip as sides, both of which were also excellent. The waitress also recommended the Honey Bunny cocktail. It's a good choice if you like sweet cocktails, it has a unique taste that is almost like liquid Skittles but with some very light froth from the egg whites.
