They have updated and now serving from the table instead of at the counter ordering! The food is consistently perfect! Split the BLT, garden salad and green beans! The place is PACKED! But, shared tables and friendly helpful staff and customers is going to keep this place hopping!!! read more

I've been here a few times and each time I've received friendly and prompt service. Although, one girl nearly charged me for substituting pickles for tomatoes; luckily, a senior staff corrected the mistake before I paid. The food is good, a little greasy, but it's a burger - you can't expect to feel like you at a salad. The quantities are massive so either go hungry, take some friends, or skip the side. Overall, pretty good experiences. read more

The pastrami sandwich was really good. We also tried their burgers and other sandwiches and they were all pretty good. The wings were just okay and offered nothing special. The service can be a hit or miss depending on who you get. So far the young male servers have been the better servers for us. We also enjoyed their beer selections. read more

This place is always good and consistent. Food is fresh and staff are very nice.

Great spot for burgers! The fried green beans with jalapeño ranch was a nice pick too. Not spicy but flavorful. A must have

My husband and I happened upon this quaint little place and we were very impressed. The atmosphere is fun and the food is outstanding. We will be back!! read more

I feel like I ordered half the menu. We had the wings, bacon cheese fries, wyatt earp burger, grilled cheese with pulled pork and the mac n cheese. All were absolutely delicious! The burger and sandwich were seriously good. The only thing I could have done without were the bacon cheese fries, they were more on the dry/crispy side rather than the cheesy gooey side. I loved my burger so much that I came back the next day and tried the grilled cheese pulled pork. YUMMMMMMM. Good service, good food and they have dessert! read more

Like the decor, patio and interior, it's very well done. We were somewhat surprised to find out it's a fast-casual format where you order at the counter in back. I don't know why, but I was expecting a full service restaurant. Our burgers were good - fresh ingredients, a great bun, and interesting choices. Crinkle-cut fries were a bit unexpected and remind me of school cafeteria, a bit odd for the price point. Overall, probably not a place we will be back to as it just isn't my kinda place, but if you're hankering for a semi-fancy burger in Old Town, this fits the bill. read more

Went to this place for the first time and oh boy, it didn't disappoint. I had a bacon cheeseburger that was ahhhmazing. I will definitely come back. Highly recommend this place. Kudos to the owner and their team. read more

The food here is so fresh and prepared so well. I've been here now a couple times and have tried a lot of different things. You have to experience it for yourself. Also, pet friendly, can with my dog and they took it upon themselves to bring my puppers a water bowl and a plain hamburger patty for her. Awesome employees, great place. Looking forward to returning. read more

Quick service and pleasant staff. We normally sit outside which is in front. We have seldom had to wait for a table and we enjoy the chicken sandwiches and salads read more

Delish there wasn't one thing that wasn't delish! My four year old loved the Mac n cheese so did mom and dad. read more

Was over in Tustin meeting up with my love for a Valentine's Day lunch. Opened up my Yelp app and saw American Grub as a promoted place to eat. Glad we chose to come here. Was greeted as soon as we walked in. Place felt comfortable and they decor was really nice. Food was so fresh and tasty. Can't wait to return soon. read more

So it's a Saturday night at my wife and I wanna go out but we really can't, She doesn't wanna get dressed and this whole damn COVID thing it makes it hard to find some place to go to. We thought about some or usual places to drag something in from but then I thought, Hey we have never been to American grub let's try it out! We jumped on the old inner webs and went to AG's website. They have lots of different burgers and sandwiches and good looking strides also. My wife went for the AG Guilty Burger Guilty Burger Angus beef patty, applewood-smoked bacon, cheddar, pepper-jack cheese, swiss, applewood-smoke bacon, fried egg, spicy mayo, toasted brioche bun. I went with the El Camino Chicken sandwich, 8 oz grilled chicken breast tossed in warm buffalo sauce, blue cheese crumbles, toasted brioche bun. Both were excellent! Know so shared an order of garlic parmesan fries. They were very good but don't expect just a little bit of garlic. Let's just say we weren't concerned about vampires after that. American grub is priced on a similar scale to Red Robin or islands and considering the quality I would say it's worth it. There's a definite difference between them add a char broiler place like John's around the corner but as I said it's worth it. read more

This place is great! Always our go to for Friday night food pick up. Great tasting and very filling.

This place is worth every star!!! I got the American cheeseburger and it came with a surprise side of potato salad...and what a surprise!!! Some of the BEST potato salad i have ever had. The Cheeseburger was so good! My husband got the hot buffalo wings and he said they were a good, yummy classic wing flavor with just the right amount of heat! We got the fried green beans and the pepper fries! Both were delicious but we left 1/2 off each there cuz it was just too much food! Including a soda the total was $36 and worth every penny!!! read more

Had the pastrami burger and the bacon burger, both cooked perfectly. So juicy and the pastrami was great. Bacon was crispy. We also ordered garlic fries which I couldn't stop eating. Really great spot read more

Went here for lunch with a friend. Very nice décor, great atmosphere. Order at the counter, drinks at the fountain, pretty much normal for order at the counter place. Ordered the Pulled pork grilled cheese. Was DELISH! I trust the food here would be good all around, my friend liked her sandwich too. We'll be back to try more of their selections. Food is big, I could only finish 1/2 my sandwich! read more

Food was great and the service was awesome! Jalapeño burgers was fire spicy enough to make sweat but not to spicy where I couldn't enjoy it!!! read more

Was advertised as the best burger in orange county. Made a special trip on our way back to Los Angeles. Very much lived up to the reputation. An amazing hamburger and the Parmesan tater tots were out of this world. A real nice craft beer selection and a great collection of hamburger choices. And the town itself was really cute and had a lot of character Definitely worth the trip read more

Our server Carlos was great. He was very friendly and he made us feel very welcome. The food was absolutely amazing and the atmosphere was great. Would recommend! read more

Great place to eat . I thought it was going to be a bit mediocre, but it was actually really goOd . Portion was good now I'm stuffed but in a good way read more

Went there for the first time as a recommendation from a friend...found the portions ample, flavorful and tasty. The fries were disappointing tasted frozen and and overdone read more

This is one of the Best Burger places around. Of course they have more to offer than just Delicious juicy burgers. The bun that is used is so crispy on the edges but a sort of airy softness to the center, great combination. The Onion Rings are LARGE & CRISPY with a little parmesan sprinkled on top. Mmmm Perfect! The zig zag fries are so hot & bomb every time. Everything I've tried so far is Great to my taste buds. Highly recommend this place & will spread the good word! read more

Had the French Dip and it was fantastic. Son had the kids meals slider. The fries, although look like frozen fries from grocery store, they are actual very good. Daughter had the patty melt and loved it. The other family we were with loved their food too. The girl that worked the counter and served the food was extremely fast. I wish more servers were that sharp and fast in every restaurants. Overall, 4.4 stars. Will have to come back for sure, and try other items. And then work toward my coveted 5-star - a candidate. read more

Love love this place!!! Food it great and the staff are so good!! And my kids always want to come Best garlic fries I ever had!! read more

I had a mushroom burger, some wings and macncheese delivered. It was EXCELLENT!!! Burger was the best I have ever had! So juicy and that bread is to die for!! Wings were still crispy when they arrived and were delicious. Im saving the mac for tomorrow but my guess it will be just as amazing as the rest!! read more

LOVE their sliders!! Actually, everything I've eaten there was very tasty but the beef in their sliders and burgers are so moist and meaty! The service there is friendly and accommodating. They always offer my dog a bowl of water. I'm glad they expanded the outdoor dining area. I hope the design is here to stay. read more

5 star service, food, and friendly staff too?!? All in a lovely air conditioned dining room on a 90+ degree day! Our party of 8 friends trickled in, but the staff handled us as if we were regulars. American Grub earned several new fans today. Thank you!!! read more

I must admit the food is good! So if I was rating just the food, 4 stars for sure! So why 1 star you ask? Well me count the ways for you... 1) after sitting down, waiter asked if we were willing to move to another table to help accommodate a larger party--we said no problem and moved. But once we moved --it went down hill. 2) after a 45 min wait, we asked the waiter where our food was, he said the didn't put the order in! Agreed to discount the bill 50%. 3) while waiting, never once filled our waters, wine, or anything else. 4) waiter comes back and agrees to give us a free dessert because the wait was so long. Received the bill and dessert was NOT free and they only discounted 20%. 5) took us 20 mins to get their attention to talk about the bill 6) waiter corrects the bill BUT seemed extremely annoyed at us. Keep in mind, he offered the 50% discount, we didn't ask for the discount. 7) we attempt to pay bill and once again another 20 mins. We finally gave up and simply put cash down and walked away. I'd like to try this place again to see if it was a one off night but for now, it's a zero stars for me! read more

Went around 11 am and they took about 30 min to bring out our orders. The staff also brought out the fries way before the food. What's up with that? Timing is so off here. The staff also forgot one of our orders on top of that the food was soooooooooo salty. Real Cajun chicken does not taste like a cheap Ralph's spice mix lol. The waitress was pretty lazy she didn't clear our table or refill out drinks.I do not recommend this place the food and service is not good. read more

Never had a bad experience here. Staff is awesome and down to earth. The food is delicious and unique. Beer selection is fabulous. Try the garlic and Cajun combined tots. Damnnnnn read more

*ALERT* Tonight my wife and I decided to treat my parents to dinner at American Grub... It was not my wife's and I first time at A.G and we've had good experiences our last couple of visits & have even recommended it to a couple of our friends. However, tonight's experience was by far the worst customer service we've ever received at a restaurant/ sit-in diner. Waiter was great at first until I pointed out to her in a very polite non "scandalous" way if you will that my chicken on my sandwich was under cooked... I ate half of the first half of my sandwich when my wife pointed out the chicken was still a bit undercooked... I didn't think to much of it and really didn't want to make such a fuss but I did call the waiter to let her know... she asked if I wanted it cooked longer and I responded with a " please, and thank you." A couple mins later she came back with half of my sandwich (keep in mind I had only eaten half of the first half of my sandwich) and said "here you go." I didn't really think to ask if I was going to get some sort of discount since I never finished the first half of my sandwich not to mention that the portion I did eat was undercooked... anyway, I went to the front and asked my waiter if I was getting a discount and she responded with a "oh yes, we'll give you a discount." After a few mins a different waiter comes over and hands us our bill & lets us know that we were not getting any discount because I had ate more then half of the first portion of my sandwich and that it was only a bite or two left of it... she also mentioned that she had personally seen the chicken and that it was not undercooked nor pink whatsoever... I was blown away with her response and so I of course asked if this decision was made by the manager and she responded with a yes.... and that same manager also happened to be the "chef" that cooked my undercooked chicken. In my 6 years in retail management the customer comes first... right or wrong. A business thrives by creating positive experiences that ultimately want the customer wanting for more... this place definitely does not live by that nor creates that sort of atmosphere... Sadly, we were very disappointed to have received TERRIBLE service not to mention we never got a "sorry" for the whole situation itself... We definitely will not be back. read more

Above average for casual dining. Visited here with some friends and had the pulled pork sandwich with coleslaw. It was okay, but the burger and turkey sandwiches were better. We got garlic and sweet potato fries that were pretty tasty too. Although the garlic was s bit heavy. Service was friendly. A little slow to clean up tables with a light, but steady crowd. It's new so they might be figuring out their processes still. Beer selection was a little slim. One interesting thing we learned is that the owner of the Swinging Door, next door, opened this place. Smart business. Feeding the drunks. I'll be interested to see if this keeps up over the long run. read more

Great food and amazing service. They work as team there and kept making sure if we needed anything else. Especially times like right now it's very nice feeling to get gear service. I also recommend the guilty burger with side of grilled jalapeños!! read more

This place is in a cool part of Tustin, so it's definitely worth checking out. I had the El Camino Chicken Sandwich (a bit messy), which was.....okay. The blue cheese ruined it for me, which I'm usually a fan of. We had a side of garlic fries, which is easily big enough to share between two people (the the jalapeño ranch!). It's also right next to The Swinging Door, but there isn't much of an issue there. If you choose to sit outside, you might run into a few smokers outside of the bar, and the noise wasn't an issue. Two of these sandwiches, two drinks, two beers, and a side of fries came out to around $40, so it won't be your cheap go to restaurant, but it is worth checking out. read more

I just left American Grub and I couldn't wait to share my experience. Came here on a whim because I was desperately craving a burger. This place hit every taste bud! I ordered the Wyatt Earp and was very satisfied, nothing was too overpowering. It came with a small side of potato salad which was also very good that even my picky girlfriend ate it all. The crinkle cut fries were perfectly crispy with just the right amount of salt. But the best thing that I was not expecting was how good the fried green beans were, plus the side of jalapeño ranch it comes with it was also very tasty. And to top it off our server, Janet, was very friendly! I'm looking forward to coming back. read more

This place is amazing! The food is great and the vibe is very relaxing. We keep coming back as often as possible.

Absolutely love this place. The food is always great and the staff could not be friendlier. It's such a gem of a place in the heart of old town. read more

Been here a couple of times....no complains. Good food/place. My girls luv the mac n cheese. read more
