Garlic mayo is a creamy sauce blending mayonnaise with minced garlic, often used to enhance various dishes.

Garlic Mayo

Fresh avocado with lime, cilantro, and onion.

Guacamole

Ham, cheddar cheese, fresh tomatoes, and arugula.

Ham and Cheese Sandwich

Smashed patty, caramelized onions, pickles, shredded lettuce & house-made burger sauce, served with seasoned fries, Insalata & fresh baked rolls

Slice the onion thinly and sauté it in a skillet over medium heat with a little oil until golden brown and caramelized, about 15-20 minutes.

Caramelize the Onions

Divide the ground beef into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

Prepare the Burger Patties

In a hot skillet or grill, smash each patty down with a spatula and cook for about 3-4 minutes on one side. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until desired doneness.

Cook the Patties

On the bottom half of each burger bun, layer shredded lettuce, the smashed patty, caramelized onions, pickle slices, and a generous drizzle of house-made burger sauce. Top with the other half of the bun.

Assemble the Burgers

Serve the burgers alongside seasoned fries and a simple Insalata (mixed salad), along with fresh baked rolls.
