We ordered the classic burger with avocado and jalapeños and the mushroom Swiss with avocado, both cooked perfectly and packed with flavor. The ingredients taste fresh, the buns are soft and toasted just right, and everything comes together exactly how a great burger should. Even the fries are excellent--crispy and seasoned well. The staff are always friendly and helpful, and the whole place has a great atmosphere. It's clean, open, and comfortable with a cool modern vibe that makes it a great place to sit down and enjoy a meal. Every visit has been solid. If you're a burger fan, this place is a must.

You order at the counter and they'll bring the food to your table. It's hard to find a burger place with all my favorites: an egg, bacon, and avocado. The bacon was crispy, the egg was medium and wasn't too runny, and the brioche bread was a little sweet and fluffy. They use angus beef for their patties. You can also split your fries which I love! I got to try the onion rings and sweet potato fries. I wish the sweet potato fries were crispy. They were more on the soggy side. The onion rings batter was a lil thicker than I like. The batter overpowered the onion. We also got the Cajun wings to try which was nice and crispy! They give you a few sauces on the side so you can dip it. I got the ranch which was so good with the wings, fries and burger. The milkshakes are pretty delicious! We got the classic vanilla one. It was a pretty thick shake so you know they use legit ice cream! I also liked the peach lemonade. I would check this place out if you're in the area!

I ordered a junior shack burger which was just 1 smash burger patty instead of their standard 2. Even if I didn't get a double patty, my burger was still significantly bigger than say a McDonald's cheeseburger. We also ordered a mushroom burger which was a double patty burger w sautéed mushrooms. Both burgers were nice, juicy and with the right amount of char on the edges of the patties. We also ordered a regular side of their flat cut fries. Super bomb! Crispy and not too greasy! Parking is easy and there's indoor eating. No restroom though, but that's okay. Will be back!

Brgr Shack has almost perfected the smashed burger grilling and I appreciate the unique style of giving you a selection of variations of a the Brgr to choose from. 1) Shack Brgr: very tasty and the grilled onions was a nice addition. The Maillard reaction still produced a very juice Brgr with a soft tasty bun. The juices soaked into the bottom bun making it a soggy mess. A little salty, but, good. 2) Mushroom & Swiss Brgr: wife ordered this, but, got full on the Beef Loaded Fries (more on that later). Yet, she brought it home and reheated in microwave and she loved it!!! The Brgr reheated well. She said it was still juicy and well seasoned. Must have been good because she ate the whole thing!!! 3) Beef Loaded Fries: well, my wife also loved this and ate half at the Shack. The fries are thick chips, topped with crumbled Brgr, grilled onions, cheese and pickles. This was a favorite for us. The meal was good and filling. Something happened with the order and the kitchen didn't get the order slip. Had to go up and asked and the cook profusely apologized for the mixup. He quickly put our order together in a little over 5 minutes and the counter person also apologized for the inconvenience. Brgr Shack comped an order of plain fries which turned out well because we used those chips to scoop the toppings of the Beef Loaded Fries. The fries underneath got soggy quick. And there was no forks to be found. Stars subtracted for lost order and no forks. Will try again of course. The dining room was clean with ample tables and chairs. They have a wall full of studio quality pictures of the menu items. There is lots of parking in an older (the surface of the parking lot were full of cracks and pot holes) strip mall. Definitely a return visit call!!! Returning on a Wednesday to take advantage of the Crazy Cow 50% Discount on 2nd Brgr. Yes!!!

My visit to George's Burgers started off disappointing when we arrived shortly after 10am and…read moreimmediately noticed a strange smell inside the nearly empty restaurant. There was only one cook and one cashier, and although the cashier was somewhat friendly, her attitude and expressions made the interaction feel uncomfortable. The food took a while to come out, the restroom was dirty with a strong odor, and the burgers tasted unfresh while the fries were just okay and the zucchini had a strange flavor. The chili cheese fries were especially bad, the chili tasted burnt, and after only a couple small bites we couldn't eat them. When I asked for a refund on the chili cheese fries, the cashier hesitated because we had taken a few tiny bites, and although the cook eventually approved it, the poor customer service and low food quality, we will never return here again.

This is how you do it folks!…read more Been here three times and we've had different dishes every time and so far everything is delicious. Service is on point, like I said I've been here three times in probably 5 months and the crazy thing is on both return trips the guy recognized me like this is the epitome of mom & pop business right here. You feel seen and you realize the money your paying for your delicious food is going to real folks and not some corporate overlord nonsense. The vibe of the place is an industrial-esque sports bar the style that was super popular during the hipster face of restauranteering where everyone was going for the stripped down minimalist aesthetic but for this place it works. They have high seats, low seats and a couple TVs playing live sports with no real obstructions. We always come at off peak hours so I'm not sure how packed it would get but this seems like a good place to catch a PPV fight or something IF they don't pack everyone in like sardines. The food, jeez I should have probably made this the start of the review the food is decadent. EVERY dish we've tried has been packed with flavor, healthy portions, and fair prices. I recommend anything on the menu but if you want to get out of your comfort zone get the balkan fries, they're so good you won't regret it! This is the kind of place you want to see in business the people rock, the food is great, and you feel like part of the community patronizing here.

The burgers are smaller than some other places but they come with fries which fill you up leaving you very satisfied with the quality of the meal. Highly recommend :)

They have free parking, which is a bonus. They are located in Escondido, San Diego. Sunset Trivia night on 7pm Thursdays! Awesome host Jason did an entertaining job.

Standard variety of burgers, salads, wraps. On this stop I ordered the grilled shrimp tacos which are spicy and served in a "fried" tortilla with cheese (sort of half quesadilla with shrimp and a cabbage slaw. Iy also come with chips and salsa on the side, which I didn't need. I'll try something else the next time I stop here. My only complaint this time was the music. They played twangy country the entire time I was there. My least favorite genre. That aside, I'll be back another time. They also close early

I don't write Yelp reviews lightly, but The Side Yard absolutely deserves the praise…read more From the moment you walk in, you can tell this place is something special. The atmosphere strikes that rare balance between relaxed neighborhood charm and thoughtfully curated design. It feels intimate without being cramped, lively without being loud. Whether you're meeting friends for brunch or settling in for a long, unhurried dinner, the space just works. The food is outstanding. Every dish feels intentional--fresh ingredients, bold but balanced flavors, and presentation that elevates the experience without being pretentious. You can taste the quality. The menu manages to be creative while still delivering comfort and approachability. It's the kind of place where you start planning what you'll order next time before you've even finished your plate. Service was equally impressive. Warm, knowledgeable, and attentive without hovering. The staff clearly take pride in what they're serving and genuinely want you to have a great experience. Hidden Meadows is lucky to have a spot like this. The Side Yard isn't just a restaurant--it's a destination. Five stars, easily. I'll absolutely be back.

There is a nice indoor/outdoor vibe as there are some really big glass garage type windows that open (or close). The service has always been very prompt and friendly. I keep going back to their pizza's as they are quite good. I also suggest checking the special of the day as they usually have some pretty cool ones. They also have beer! Quite a few to be honest and if you aren't sure they are great at helping you figure out what works for you. For good food served by nice people in a clean and modern environment, this is the place!

First off, Im 100% sure the owner here uses ChatGPT to answer all negative yelp reviews. Any business owner worth their weight is able to think for themselves and use their brain to answer unless they're completely illiterate or too incompetent to think of a good response. Second off, are they even a brewery? I see cans and taps of their own beer, but looking into the business, I dont think they own a brewery at all. This is more along the lines of a taphouse/pub. THAT BEING SAID, the food is quite nice. I think the pizza is great and it feels like they make and roll their own dough which is respectable and ambitious for a random little spot like this. But It is quiet...too quiet. The beer tender would constantly hangout at the handicap table talking to any co-worker with free time on their hands for a long time. Seems like a cushy job honestly. I'm assuming they would hold conversation with customers, but unfortunately There were no customers... its a ghost town, and i left thinking, "This place is creepy." I'll just pick up and eat the pizza at home next time. I'm waiting to see what generic CHATGPT response the owner gives me.

(Came out to $21.93) Coffee and soft drinks are self-serve. We found a table and the serve brought our food to us. The food is served on paper plates and plastic utensils (and the server clears the table, there are no trash cans around). My breakfast was as good as a typical cafe style meal, only it cost $10 less. My bride said her dog was great.
