The Plaza Tavern and Grill is the home of the “world-famous Plazaburger.”   The burger is dressed with a Plaza sauce which is a secret recipe from 1964.   The Plazaburger is ordered separately from a regular burger but they also offer a number of other food choices.  Inside is a long bar that runs the length of the long room and booths run along the opposite wall.  The middle of the room is open but you’ll find various game machines around the room.  A number of televisions were around the room and midday they were playing an old animated show.  It’s conveniently located by the capital and UW and open Wed to Sat from noon to 2 am.  Goggle wrongly said they weren’t open till 3 pm on Wed but that is not the case.  They were super friendly and cooked our burgers on the grill right behind the bar.  It is a cash only place.

Set-Up

Food

This is the perfect snack to go with a cold beer.   The Plazaburger is not huge so it was easy to eat one mid-day and still have room for dinner.  We both added fried onions to the burger.  The secret sauce tasted like a mayo, sour cream, garlic and onion blend and it did have a white color.  The server was able to keep a little pink in the patty which was nice.  The slice of cheese melted into the burger and bun on one side and the plaza sauce and onions melted into the other side.  It was a tasty burger on what looked like a whole wheat bun.
