About

The Hedgehog is a local favorite for a reason—the food is generally spot on and the vibe is perfect for a chill afternoon. Most people rave about the burgers and the relaxed atmosphere. However, service can get a bit shaky when it's busy, leading to long waits. It's a great spot for sports fans, though the noise can sometimes be a bit much if you're looking for a quiet dinner.
