The Assembly American Bar & Cafe

I use to work here so yes I am bias... but I'm not really a burger person in the sense that I find them ok... but after having a burger at The Assembly it's the best burger I've had, no one compares, I crave it. Parmesan Burger is the best. I read a reviewer complaining about the mac burger and compared to others it can be lack luster (still good) BUT if you add the garlic butter with a slice of mozzarella cheese its Bomb AF! I obviously love the staff, but the reason I applied there was because my family had gone and loved the vibe and the mature staff. That being said, I feel like people can have really high expectations of customer service like everywhere they go should be fine dining customer service. Personally that's not the service I enjoy, I like a more down to earth atmosphere. The staff there works hard, takes pride in what they do and what they serve. A lot of them have been there well over 10 years, that's saying something!

Exemplary service from Bryan - there was another gal also, didn't catch her name. Good pour, great classic music and videos. Friendly atmosphere, dark but not creepy. 10 oz burgers are cooked to perfection at medium per our request, several options regarding bun choice - had the butter bun which was yummy! HAVE THE CHEESE CAKE!

The Assembly knocks us out every time we go there. The burgers are outstanding and gigantic, so bring your appetite! Chili is excellent as well. Everything is homemade (sauces, salad dressings, etc.) and consistently good. The service is great too... sit at the bar for the best experience. Tracey and Stacey will take great care of you and you can watch the magic on the grill. We've never been disappointed and look forward to every visit.

After a co-worker mentioned this place as a great joint for a burger... we happened to find ourselves in the area after the Bears CLINCHED the division, and all we can say is WOW. I was instructed to sit at the bar, and it didn't disappoint. Nadia our bartender/server/cook was fantastic. She made a few recommendations and she came through! Sampler platter was massive and delicious and the beer cold. But the burgers... omg the burgers. Cooked and prepared right at the bar. They were not only perfectly cooked but very very good.

Highly recommend this bar and the food. You've probably driven past it a countless number of times, as we have before. But it's time to give it a try. We'll be back for sure.
