Always have a great experience with the staff. Food always fresh and fries always hot! Always clean and when I place large orders, staff always has my food order ready and on time. :) Highly recommend! read more

I work nearby and there's about 6 restaurants in the area and I hadn't tried this place (yet). I was surprised that this location existed as there is Carson Burgers located pretty much across the street. Not sure as to what I wanted to eat for lunch, I was leaning towards a cheeseburger and fries, and I was not disappointed (with my food nor the price). I ended up ordering the cheeseburger combo which came with fries and a drink. I ordered my patty well done along with the fries crispy and I forgot to order it without mustard and thank heavens it doesn't come with it (just mayo). Burger was cooked to perfection (well done but not dry) & the fries were piping hot and crispy! I also appreciated real ketchup bottles at one station along with a help yourself to the little yellow hot peppers! Will definitely be back and glad this place is around to give Carson Burgers some heated competition (haven't tried a cheeseburger and fries from Carson Burgers yet)! read more

Apollo Burgers - Cheeseburger combo - Burgers Near Me - Carson, California

First off, the moment I walked in I noticed it was spacious and clean. I'm taking about the floors, tables, benches etc. I didn't use their restroom so I can't say much about it. They do have kids menu options which was good for us, we have a toddler. He loved the meat and fries. My husband and I ordered the cheeseburger and the bacon cheeseburger combos. They came with a generous amount of fries and a drink which could be refilled as many times as you'd like. The burger review: Cheeseburger - My burger was thin and fully cooked (which I liked). It came with their house special sauce, cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato and onions. The only regret is not having ordered more onions on my burger. I also feel like their double cheeseburger would've been the choice to order since the meat was thin - not a bad thing, but I could've taken down a double for sure. Bacon cheeseburger - (in my husband's words) burger was cooked just right. The special sauce is great. To me the fries were a little dry, but it's really about the burger. The burger is bomb. Fries come and go, but a good burger is hard to come by. The service was great. They have a nice and friendly staff. Giving it a 4 start only because the fries were a bit off, I'm sure they could be a bit better to make this meal a 5/5. There was another young family coming in with a baby as we were leaving. It's good to see families coming here. We'd definitely come back for more!! read more

I go here often but these past few days have been so disappointing. 1st of all it's about 10:30 am on a Tuesday Morning. I Ordered their club sandwich. It was sloppy, cut very sloppy, and my fries were old. Why?!! It's not even noon yet and I'm getting OLD FRIES?? Whoever the cook was at this moment must not have wanted to come in smh. Very dis read more

$16 Club sandwich combo down the drain. My soda had no fizz tasted like sweet water. My club sandwich was so disgusting , way too much mayo. I had to dab with a napkin on both sides of my sandwich cause i was basically biting into alot of mayo. Had to throw out the rest of the sandwich tasted disgusting , couldn't even taste the bacon or deli meat CAUSE THERE WAS WAY TO MUCH MAYO!!! Their drive thru communication sucks, had to repeat my order like 5 times to 3 different people. Who is in charge in the morning or who is the manager ? cause i would love to get a refund. Bad service , sweet, watery soda with no fizz and mayo sandwich. Never coming back here again. read more

Apollo Burgers - Burgers Near Me - Carson, California

Let me start off by saying I never do reviews on places but I do come to Apollos burger often. This time they really let me down with bad customer service, I went in to order in person today, Monday at 3:30pm the lady with glasses had zero patience and kept rolling her eyes as I ordered. Once my food was ready I grabbed my bag, I simply asked her if the burger with no onion was labeled she didn't even say a word instead gave me a dirty look and nodded her head. Just to get home and find out the burger wasn't even labeled. I will not come back after dealing with that lady and such bad service. I refuse to spend my hard earned money here any longer. read more

Okay I have probably the funniest story about this place ever. One time, my dad wanted Apollo's.. We arrive at 10 minutes before close. The lady at the drive thru window wasn't answering at the speaker, so we pulled up to the window. She starts shaking her head and doing the "cut it" hand gesture and says "we close". My dad says "I thought you closed at 10? What time do you guys close?" The lady looks at her watch and says "we close at 9:50". That saying has since been an inside joke in the family for 10+ years now. Oh did I mention the food was bomb asf? The bullet holes in the windows add to the ambiance as well, always was in awe of these as a kid and wondered why it was never fixed.. but reflecting now I am glad it never was fixed. Local favorite for sure!! read more

Apollo burgers was all my families goto for fast food burgers, we would come atleast 1- 2x a week but after yesterday we ain't coming back anymore. The burger is great & fresh but The cashier older lady attitude and customer serice is terrible and rude. She argues and yells at you, what happened to respecting the customers ??.. Not worth the time and energy. We will spend our money somewhere else where they respect us and other customers.. Don't come here if you dont want ur day ruined... read more

Service was horrible I waited over 30min for a Jr. Burger. People came in after me and ordered food and got theirs before. I wasn't in the mood for a regular burger but because I made them cook this burger they took their sweet time. Im a regular here so I know it was done because I didnt spend more money. read more

My family has eaten here forever prob as long as they have been open. Top notch chili cheese fries. Reason for low review is service. Cashier is very rude and the owner is worse. He handles money and touches food. He got mad that I requested ranch and threw it out the drive thru window into my car. Sadly they are my favorite for chili cheese fries but now I hardly go there. read more

Went through the drive-thru and it was a long wait, about 15 mins until we reached the window, with only 2 cars ahead of us. Person working the window is an older man with hearing problems, just an FYI. Food was decent, taste like any other fast food that's similar to it such as Fantastics and so forth. read more

My family frequently visits Apollo, as we do like their food and my son enjoys the chili fries. Usually if we go on a Friday I tend to go inside, since the owner is usually working and I'd rather not interact with him. Tonight we decided to grab some food and I went thru the drive thru since I did not see the owner and one of the cooks took my order. I pulled up to the window and the owner was there. He is one of the rudest people I have ever come across and should not be interacting with customers. He walked up to the window with 2 of my 3 drinks. Pushes the cup holder towards me and lets go before I can even grab the handle. Does the same thing with my order once it's done, rushing me away while I am trying to tell him I was missing a drink. He looks at the receipt and repeats my drinks which he did incorrectly. I told him no and said what drinks were ordered and what was missing. As I'm trying to talk to him he walks away without saying a word. One of the girls who works there walked up apologizing and asked if I was only missing the drink. She gets my drink apologizing again, I let her know she is not at fault and has nothing to be sorry about. Her boss is rude and should not be taking orders if all he cares about is getting rid of the customers. His actions were very uncalled for. I would also like to note that I was the only car in the drive thru, and there was 1 car in the parking lot. It's not like they were to busy that he couldn't practice good customer service. read more

I don't get why this place has such a low rating. I've been coming here for over 20 years, the staff have always been nice, and the food has always been delicious. They get my order right 99% of the time. I just wish they'd fix the men's bathroom. It used to look so much better when I was younger, now it looks like a dive bar bathroom. read more

Here today for another great meal. I ordered the Taco salad with a side of avocado and a side of bacon and also ordered a large ice tea. Thank you for preparing another great meal. The staff here are really nice and professional. The place is kept clean. There is plenty of parking in the off street parking lot I highly recommend this place read more

Been going here for all my life I'm 32 now, just recently went here today & order the chili cheese fries and was so sad that they changed everything, they changed the chili which was amazing they changed the cheese that complemented the chili the only thing that's the same was the grilled onions. Hopefully management see's this & go back to what's been having me come for decades. I also can agree with the other reviewers the customer service has declined over there years definitely but who cares when the food is good lol. But yes hopefully they changed it back to what it's been or I'm sad to say me & my family also friends will not be coming to Apollo Burger any more read more

I would give zero stars if possible. The cashier very much had attitude all over her face as if she hated her job. I ordered a chicken dinner that took about 20 minutes to come out. The chicken was very hard, tasted burnt and the beans were awfully dry(seems like it came straight from a can). 0/10.. read more

Please get someone else to take the orders at the drive-thru. That man is so rude. He rushes you. He doesn't listen. He yells at you. He ALWAYS gets my order wrong. I ordered 2 breakfast burritos, got to the window already knowing something was going to go wrong because he took my order. And of course, he only charged me for one burrito. I gave up at that point, especially since this has happened numerous times. Love Apollo, it's a Carson staple, but I'll go somewhere else for correct and proper service. read more

Gentleman at the drive thru is by far the rudest person I've ever come across. It saddens me because Apollo burgers has been me and my family's favorite place to go to for chili fries since the 1990's. The gentleman at the drive thru window basically threw my order of chili fries at me and with the container box open. Luckily I looked at my order (which was an order of chili cheese fries), the cheese was not melted at all. (Looked similarly to a Cesar salad smothered with shredded cheese on top) When I asked him why the cheese was not melted he screamed at me and said "what did you expect ? What do you want us to melt the cheese for you or something?" I was appalled at how rude he was being. I politely responded "well yes, I didn't realize this is how you guys serve your chili cheese fries now" he grabbed my order from My hands and told the cook to microwave the cheese for me and told the lady who also works at the register and they started communicating to each other in Spanish. The lady who works there also has a terrible attitude when working at the drive thru. Definitely the last time I will be coming here. Terrible customer service, the employees there have the worse attitudes. They also love slamming the window on you after you pay and after they give you your order at the drive thru. Terrible in every single way. Not sure if this place is under new management but they should definitely work on better customer service. If you hate where you work. Please find somewhere else to work if you have poor manners and don't know how to speak or treat others. You won't make it far with that kind of attitude and behavior. read more

I work down the street and my go to is always a turkey sandwich with a sprite. They never disappoint and the customer service is always great. I don't know anyone would give this place less than that. I saw another post where an elite called the worker a dummy for asking what he ordered, maybe he's having a bad day. Ambiance is mom and pop, good quality food. read more

The turkey cheeseburger I ordered today was disgusting it tasted old... no pickles, no onions, it was dry, and the patty was thin and disgusting... for the price I paid it was not worth it... they're price gauging... customer service was mediocre... the drive thru sign doesn't have prices and you barley can make the menu out... idk who Apollo is but he will be disappointed.... French fries were hard ... chicken nuggets out of the Tyson wing bag.... Ima need my 33$ or a portion of my money back... I will never eat here and I don't recommend anyone else too.... I should've just went to Carl's Jr down the street I would saved money and been satisfied.... I'm highly disappointed in this place and myself for trying this place... they have some changes that need to be made ! read more

Out of all the times I've been to Apollo Burger, I've never had an issue until today! I ordered Carne Asada fries and asked what comes on the fries. I was told Cheese and Meat, so I asked for a side to Pico de Gallo. I was told they don't carry that. Okay no problem! I get to the window and before driving off I ask for Lemon or Lime. The cashier who has already dealt with 3 cars before me, took my card and gave me a receipt goes to get a small bag, has NO GLOVES ON! Puts his hand in the bag to open it and reaches into the lemon bin with HIS BARE FINGERS grabs two lemons and the puts them in the bag and hands them to me. I should have drove off when I saw him grab the lemons with his fingers and not tongs, but I was too stunned. I said thank you and drove off. Again, I've never had issues with the lady that's usually there, but she wasn't there today, and then I dealt with this. I loved coming to Apollo Burger, but I can't go back now. Not after this. Not sure what rating this location has, but after this that's a F for me! SMH! Not sure if the guy was new, but this is definitely UNACCEPTABLE for a restaurant! Handling money then using your bare hands to handle food. GROSS! read more

Apollo Burgers - Gross! Contaminated Lemons! Not even fresh. - Burgers Near Me - Carson, California

Talk about bad customer service. I ordered over the phone for a FISH sandwich combo w zucchini instead of fries. The rude ass lady on the phone kept huffing and puffing as if she was so irritated. Get there, tell some girl w braces my name for the order, she comes back and asks 'do you know what you ordered?'. Dummy, what was the point of ordering over the phone? The total was $20. I thought to myself...I aint ever paid that much for a damn fish sandwich, even if it's a combo! Turns out these idiots charged me for a steak sando, even after I repeated the order more than once!!! I didn't realize the mistake until I got home, but I won't be coming back to this crappy place. EAT SOMEWHERE ELSE! read more

The taco omelette is bomb and the onion rings are always hot and on point. Get it! Service is pretty fast too.

The Cheeseburger is my favorite! Second go to are the Onion rings which are flakey. They are Not like other breaded onion rings but that's what I'm used to since Ive been eating them once in a while for 40 years. lol they don't charge you extra for the Ranch which is also great! The people know me already so no attitude read more

After reading many reviews recommending the chili cheese fries, I had to give this place a try. The first thing I noticed was that this place was clean inside! Some reviews suggested it was messy. On my visit, it was not. Other reviews suggested getting a poor attitude from the cashier, this was not the case f9r me. I was greeted by a pleasant young lady who took my order and smiled. Another young girl also helped us along the way, and she was pleasant as well. Now on to the food.. the presentation was n8ce, burgers wrapped tight and all of the ingredients smiling from their wrapper. The burgers are on point, and the fries were perfectly seasoned and light crispy. As for the chili fries.. they most definitely did NOT disappoint! They were crispy, loads of cheese, and the chili itself is meaty and perfect! My favorite has always been Tommy's. After 40 years of their chili fried, I think Apollo burger chili fries nay have replaced them as my new favorite! read more
