Why Travelers Love Sad Man's
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
The burger was absolutely delicious. The patty was cooked perfectly, and the freshness of the toppings didn’t overpower the meat, allowing me to truly enjoy its natural flavor. The fries paired wonderfully with the sauce. I came here on my birthday, and the restaurant made my special day so joyful. The atmosphere is chic with beautiful live music, and the staff provides excellent service. I highly recommend everyone to come and try this place — definitely not to be missed! I really liked the place. Firstly, the service is excellent: nice, smiley, cheerful and attentive - a rare treat in these parts. The food - was good, but not amazing. I ordered the American smash burger - it came with fries and an interesting (cocktail?) sauce. However the sauce inside the burger itself wasn’t as good. The bun was ok, I’ve tried better ones, but the portion size and the stunningly big meat piece compensated for that 100%. The cheddar wad also the best I’ve ever tried: delicious, melty, creamy. Despite these minor shortcomings, I would gladly come again to try other burgers. The atmosphere was quite good - stylish, relaxed and kind of teeneagy in a good way? I liked the attention to details and devotion to americanism :) The only downside, it all looks a bit worn and it can get loud, when enough guests arrive. It’s a cool experience. The burgers here feel American and that alone deserves your attention. Beware though, only cash and no reservations allowed. So you should come prepared. Amazing burgers and beers. Spotted it the place randomly on a weekday and luckily they had a spot for us to sit down and eat. Good chicken fingers and burgers. A must go. They only accept cash, so go with cash ready or the have atm machine that charges extra :)

It's worth it to try their delicious burgers, and be careful of the spicy level; 😅 it definitely has a kick 😅 Staff is so friendly and helpful. The atmosphere is vintage and likable. I will definitely go back there next time.

Service is really great! Was greeted at the entrance, guided to a free table. Immediately asked if I want to order a beer, which I did 😁 The Burger was great, nothinf super extraordinary, but a really good burger with fries and a delicious dip. Service is amazingly attentive, waiting times are really good. Yeah, it's a bit on the "louder" side, but the atmosphere is great!
