Johnny's Fillin Station   

Tucked away in a nondescript street corner just south of downtown, this hidden gem serves up some of the finest burgers this side of Hamburg. Inside, a pool table, leather-back stools, odd knickknacks and laminated wood furnishings exude a shabby sports-bar chic. The affable waitresses are always eager to chat it up with customers, that is, when they're not dishing out the juicy and humongous half-pound burgers. The Philly Burger, with sauteed onions, banana peppers and choice of cheese, is everything you'd hope a burger to be, while the Full Service Burger will satisfy the cravings of the hungriest carnivore. More can't-miss menu items include their chicken wings (served mild, medium, hot and high octane), nachos and delectable deli sandwiches. The place is popular with those looking to knock back a beer after work, but the clientele is as varied as its interior. The bar area can get loud and boisterous on Sunday afternoons, so if you're there to watch the big game, get a table in front of the TVs in the seating area. If it's peace and quiet you want, try the enclosed outdoor patio. If you're craving a late-night greasy fix, the bar delivers food (and beer) 'til 12:45AM. -- Faiyaz Kara
