Burgers to die for. This tavern is a well kept secret. Either you know about it or you don't. Walking past the corner of Georgia Ave and Bonifant St. there's a mysterious stairway to a basement tavern that's easy to miss. If it looks a little spooky, be brave and venture down. You'll be glad you did.
