I love this place. I don't really know what else to say. You can sing the praises of any burger joint in town, but I haven't come across one that beats the flavor or the au poivre II - juicy beef, big enough for two, cracked peppercorns, thick cut bacon, wine saut\u00e9ed onions plus blue cheese... it is a brilliant combination and has never disappointed, and I rarely even order a burger. \n\nIf you would prefer to skip the beef the AZ88 chicken is doused in buffalo sauce served on a bun with blue cheese (everything should be served with blue cheese) and is a great choice. If you'd like to forgo the beef and the bun, the AZ88 salad offers the same spicy buffalo chicken breast on top of the already well devised Four Season's salad, which offers a nice mix of fresh ingredients beyond your basic lettuces and tomatoes. \n\nYou can't review AZ88 without discussing the cocktails - well you could, but it would be a shame to overlook these tasty little concoctions. Actually, \"little\" isn't a word I would use to describe the adult beverages here. AZ88's martinis are legendary for their size. I've heard complaints about the cost of the drinks here, but you are getting a lot of bang for your buck in that martini glass. The liquid tests the laws of viscosity and your waiter's balance as it makes its way to your table. It is a real challenge to see if you can pick it up from the table in a smooth enough manner to keep all the liquid in the glass. My favorite stolen from AZ88 cocktail trick is to make cubes of frozen juices and cover them in vodka - no mixing required! This makes me look super slick when I have a party (shhh).\n\nI just recently found out AZ88 is dog friendly on the patio, which just makes me love them all the more. I have a feeling my Italian greyhound will be a big fan of the burger and will also appreciate the fact that it's way too much for me to eat on my own.
