Our Story

Have you noticed the queue of hungry people at the Mapco on the corner of Danny Thomas and Dr. MLK Jr. Ave.? UPS guys, police officers, and hungry people from all over the city are lining up for a taste of A.D's grilled smashburgers, hot dogs, and Circle B sausages. Made to order as you hungrily look on, each menu item comes with a bag of chips and a drink for $5. Owner/operator/chef Aaron says he started this delicious hustle when his valet business got a little slow last year. You can find A.D's at the Mapco during the week and on Beale & Second on the weekends (when the weather is nice). Aaron sets up at 9 a.m. and stays until he sells out.
