Breakfast officially ended at 11:30 a.m., but they were still willing to make breakfast dishes for us, which was appreciated. The ambiance is what you'd expect from a traditional Mexican restaurant, with Mexican music playing in the background and Mexican-inspired artwork decorating the walls. The food did take a while to come out, but everything tasted fresh, so the wait seemed understandable. I ordered chilaquiles with carne and two eggs over easy, but the eggs were not cooked over easy as requested. Aside from that, the meal was enjoyable. Our order included an apple juice, four asada tacos, chilaquiles with carne and two eggs, a molcajete for one, a Jarritos, a Mexican Coke, and a churro flan. The total came to $102.

Still not in love with the parking situation but I got the food for takeout both times. It's easier to park at the top during non peak hours (weekdays) or after 8 pm in the plaza. Th first time I went back, I got the combo for 2 (2 sandwiches, 2 chicken gizzard skewers, 6 wings, 2 sodas, and fries), a taiwanese sausage, and an extra chicken sandwich for 3 people. This was so much food and all of it was so good. I will say the Taiwanese sausage was a little small but it was sweet and decent. I probably won't get it again though because I expected it to be a little bigger for the price and it was a little hard. The chicken sandwiches were delicious and super big. The patties themselves were well seasoned (both spicy and non spicy) and huge (sticking out the bun)! The wings were also nice and crunchy. The skewers were also pretty yummy to eat as well. I will say I still don't love the fries as they aren't that seasoned. I even order extra cumin ($.75) and for them to add it to the fries, but they were still pretty plain. I wish they made shake fries or seasoned them better. The second time I went it was already 11 pm and I was happy to see they were opened so late. It's nice to see something opened after 9pm in the SGV. I ordered popcorn chicken, fries, and a sandwich that came out fairly quickly. The popcorn chicken was yummy per usually and my sibling enjoyed the sandwich. I also got regular fries with my free points and although they had pepper seasoning, it was still plain. The fries also weren't that crunchy so I won't order fries from here again. I think they're just not that good here but the chicken is still a go to. Overall, I usually have pleasant experiences at Macho burger and I'm slowly becoming a regular!

My family was craving a breakfast burrito so I brought them here, because they serve breakfast items all day. I noticed they had a grill with open flames and thought their burgers must have that nice smoky charred taste, so I got a pastrami cheeseburger. The breakfast burritos were both good and filling, but there was nothing about it that stood out over some of the other burger spots around Monrovia. The pastrami cheeseburger unfortunately had no charred flavor at all. It didn't even have any grill marks, so I'm not sure what the open flame was reserved for. What tasted like thousand island dressing overpowered the beef and pastrami, so I mostly tasted the sweet sauce. Well, we got what we were craving, but I was left disappointed. That's just me expecting too much from a $11. burger, from a place that has the same name as me, and the word 'Burger' in its name.

Their restaurant was just a couple of minutes from the auto shop and it was hot outside so I came here instead of all the other places. I was kinda lost for a minute because I thought the restaurant was a standing building alone and not with other shops, it was tucked between the Aqua fresh and donut shop. If you don't look closely, you probably will miss it like I did lol. When I walked in, there was no AC, just a fan on the register counter blowing full blast, it was stuffy inside. After I ordered the double burger combo, it was under &14, a great deal. I think the cashier was also the cook because he was the only person there. He did a pretty good job. The burger was delicious, the beef patties were thinner but it was juicy, plenty of lettuce which I like, white onions and 2 slices of tomatoes, with fat fries and a medium drink, I got sprite since it was like 90 degrees outside. I didn't eat at the restaurant because it was hot inside so I ate it in me car with the windows rolled down and just watched the cars go by lol the guy was friendly and he has a thick accent, I thought he was middle eastern but maybe he's Latino, the place is colorful with the tables and chairs. It has a couple of games for the kids. When you buy the combo, you can also get the drinks from the refrigerator instead of the soda machine. I thought that was cool. If you guys in the area, you should come get some juicy burgers, they also have a huge selection of Mexican food too. I wonder if he was the only person working there and is also the cook, does he know how to cook all the food on the menu, if he does, you know he feeds his family and friends well lol I would recommend this restaurant for delicious meals and is inexpensive

This is an update to an old review…read more.. I no longer live in the area to frequent Art's Burgers. My husband used to work at Big D's in El Monte and Art had worked there too for a moment I believe before he opened Art's Burgers Anyways, my husband does work in the City of Industry and when I have a day off from work during the week, I usually visit. Well, the day I chose to visit was the day we both agreed to get Art's. I know I miss being able to hit up the drive thru for a late night burger and chili cheese fry. I haven't found any place near me that hits the same as this place does. Burger and chili cheese fry were very good as always. Of course, before I headed home, I had to swing back to the drive thru to bring some family some food (burgers and of course the chili cheese fries). While I was waiting, Art came out and chatted with me a bit and had me laugh. He also thanked me for coming back to support the business, to which I responded I do try when I come back to the area. I know we will have future visits here and there, just not always as it's not easy to get that way all the time. I will point out the location can get quite busy and traffic is usually erratic in the area. It's almost a risk getting out of the exit side of the drive thru as cars block your vision to the left side and then you got cars coming from the right side. Other than that, I would recommend a visit to this spot when in El Monte.

The second visit "could've been better" (which Yelp suggests that a 2 star rating would be appropriate to indicate): we placed quite a simple order - 2x Strawberry Sundaes. We took our number placard (#52) and sat at a table to await our order. After patiently waiting what I would estimate to be approximately 15-20 minutes and seeing quite a few other people served their orders, I did find it odd that it was taking so long to prepare 2x sundaes, so I located the young man who took our order and politely inquired about it. He looked a bit confused, exchanged some unintelligible words one of the guys on the grill, and then looked back at me and said it was not our turn yet (or something to that effect). Okay, fair enough. Maybe there were many orders ahead of us. I took it in good stride and went back to my table. After waiting approximately another 15-20 minutes and seeing that *Order #70* was being given their food, I realized that there was a problem and went back up to the ordering counter. I ended up talking with an old man (who I presume is the owner/manager). I explained the situation, and he inquired who had taken our order. I looked around, and the young man appeared to be nowhere in sight, but I did mention it was he who had had taken our order. The old man apologized and assured us he would take care of our order right away. Sure enough, I saw him beeline to the ice cream machine to start our sundaes, and he delivered them to us within 2-3 minutes. He apologized a second time, stating that it was the young man's 2nd day on the job, and that he otherwise would not have forgiven the transgression. In my experience, the resolution to the absurd wait could have been handled worse (in theory, the old man could certainly have told us to pound sand rather than apologizing and immediately attempting to correct the problem and quickly getting our desserts after being made aware of his employee's failure), but also could have been handled better (comping us for the trivial cost of the sundaes as a remedy/cure would have more effectively salved our irritation from the unnecessary waste of 30+ minutes of our life, and would have been in-line with remedial efforts I have experienced at other eateries, including similar fast food/burger joints). All that said, the sundaes were quite good. They would undoubtedly have tasted better had they been served in a time frame reasonable enough to not spoil the mood. I get that this is not a fine dining restaurant of any sort, but I still expect staff competence to be no worse than that of a McDonald's baseline level. I also get that humans make mistakes, but ... how did a simple order of 2x sundaes get botched this badly, particularly after a good faith attempt to bring the matter to staff's attention??
