    The Deck
    Michelle K.

    We were looking for a new burger spot and decided to stop at the Burger Deck based on the high rating. However for 9pm on a Friday night, this place was dead. Still, we decided to give it a chance. I had a pretty negative initial reaction when we first got there. Not only was the staff initially quite rude, but there were also multiple cockroaches in the deck area that gave us the heebie jeebies. I imagine it is a nice spot during the day when the sun is shining, as it looks out west towards the airport. The food at least somewhat made up for the sour initial experience. We got the Deck, the Baja Deck and the truffle fries. It had good flavor but was also extremely greasy. However for the price it's quite reasonable. Skip the milkshake though. It's prepackaged and mixed with water, not worth the $8

    Baja Deck
    Ashley M.

    The burger doesn't look like much, but it's absolutely delicious! I ordered the Baja Deck, which comes with a single smash patty, cheddar cheese, thick-cut bacon, fresh jalapeño, butter lettuce, vine-ripened tomato, and chipotle mayo. The fries are crispy and taste like they've been seasoned with salt. To order, you go to a window, and it's usually pretty quick from ordering to food delivery. Seating is outdoor, and the good news is that San Diego's weather is nearly perfect year-round, so you can enjoy your burger outdoors. Highly recommend if you are in the mood for a smash burger.

    Truffle fries
    Bobby T.

    Absolutely delicious. Only drawback is the parking and the stairs. The burgers are amazing. The fries are crispy and coated. Love the truffle fries. The food came out quick and hot! Service was good! The meat to bun ratio is absolute perfection. The cheese was melted perfectly. Fresh lettuce and tomatoes. Grilled onions is a must! Love that they have all outdoor seating. There's also a bathroom and it's needed. The burgers are all messy in the best way possible.

    Delicious burgers, fries and ambiance! The food is fresh and fast. Service was great. They have a lovely patio outside with a great view!

    This has got to be one of the best burgers in SD! It's located above Rubicon Deli. It's a little rooftop deck area with some picnic tables and bar seating. The service is fast and really nice and friendly! This was a huge burger! I got the double cheeseburger with bacon, avocado and grilled onions. I love my smash burger seared with a little bit of crunch. It was seasoned perfectly and hit the spot! The potato bun was soft on the inside and crispy on the edges. I got the truffle fries which were so good! I like the skinny fries because they're crispier. It had the perfect amount of truffle to it. My kiddo said it was the best burgers she's ever had. She mixed the Swiss with American with a side of fries. They serve milkshakes, glass sodas, fountain drinks, and beer on tap. I'll definitely be back to satisfy those burger cravings!

    Burger Deck is one of my favorite smash burger places. It's located off of Washington St off the 5 fwy and finding parking isn't too difficult. There is outdoor seatings with umbrella on a deck just like its name. To order at the counter, usually need to ring the bell to call for someone as it could take a while to take your order but the food comes out pretty quick. There is a self-serve water station with cups and 4 different sauce options. The burgers are pretty good. I appreciate the butter lettuce used for the smash burgers. However for the lettuce wrapped burger, they left the stump on the romaine lettuce which I thought was odd. The fries can be a bit too salty for the shoestring fries. Anyhow, this isn't a big deal and would be back.

    The guy was kind of quiet. Not much expression or talking but I could tell he was being nice. Food was good. I just wasn't sure about the pricing at $12-13. +$5 for combo of fries and soda on any burger.

    Onion rings
    Dung N.

    Burger Deck is located on the rooftop of Rubicon Deli. I chose the Dirty Deck and he ordered the Baja Deck (double smash). We also got a side of onion rings and some dirty fries. The smash burgers were very filling and flavorful! The onion rings were delicious and crispy. The fries came with chopped beef patty, pickles, pickled onions, smothered in deck sauce. It was too loaded for me haha! I think I'd rather get some truffle fries next time!

    If you want a good smash burger no a great smash burger this is your place! While the menu is on the smaller side as is a burger chain all you need is a few options. There's burgers are so juicy, caramelized onions toasted buns and based on what burger you pick different sauce and other options. All burger meals are served with shoe string fries. Their deck top where you sit to eat is so peaceful and nice. Before we leave San Diego we are hitting this spot again. Oh and by the way they do have a happy hour !!!

    I visited for my first time yesterday to try a happy hour beer. I was very surprised by their Candy IPA, so good! Ordered the buffalo fries which came with chicken & bacon, mmmm. The deck was a bit loud with the noise from I/5, but you have a small view of the Airport, and you're drinking a tasty brew and yummy eats, so don't complain! Laylonie was SO friendly, describing the variety of beers, and letting me sample them. She was an absolute JOY! I will return very soon & hope to be a regular!

    Loved this place! The burgers and fries were so yummy. The outdoor area is such a vibe, with lots of picnic tables to hang out at, and you can watch the planes fly by. Will definitely come back!

    The lovely patio.

    This is probably my 5th time here. Awesome burgers, pleasant patio atmosphere, and great service. Fernando was very friendly and efficient even though it was busy (FIFA on a Friday night.). Glad we have this spot in south Mission Hills!

    Do they serve any halal meat (e.g. Creekstone halal)?

    Is the Burger Deck dog friendly?

    Yesss. There's plenty of room to sit outside and have your dog go around on a leash

They are great humans and really helpful in explaining the various drink specials (margarita trees are highly recommended), the local flavor favorites, and just the area itself. My coworker and I got the elote and the chicken tinga cheese crisp to share. The elote was okay. The Cheese Crisp was really satisfying, basically reminded me of a Mexican Pizza with the tortilla base. It's a cool spot to come hangout if you are the area.

When I came in I greeted the team and hoped they were having a good day. The team member was genuinely so happy that someone was being nice to them, the people in front of people weren't very kind to them. Restaurant workers are not punching bags, you should never treat people with disrespect just because they're providing you a service, have some couth. I truly had empathy for them because people these days feel some entitlement and are owed something and that's not right. I ended up getting a two item combo with noodles and for my protein I opted for orange and teriyaki chicken, literally the most basic meal. Not going to lie for the cost, my meal was perfect, the chicken was flavorful and tender and really hit the spot. Will definitely be coming back to this Panda Express!
