    Cheeseburger
    Kafilat Y.

    Was kraving a burger and stumbled upon this spot via Yelp. So happy I visited because this place hit the spot and gained a new loyal customer! The food is prepared fresh to order (literally watched them cook my food from scratch lol) and you can taste the quality. The service was super friendly and accommodating and recommended items to me. Overall, highly recommend if you're kraving an authentic burger and fries (or onion rings) or milkshake

    New owners. Burgers are now on the dry side and they just don't taste the same. It's great that they've kept the restaurant alive but I don't think they use the same quality ingredients

    Cheese on the side
    Rachelle C.

    The second time I came here and gave them a shot. This time they failed again. I ordered fries and a side of cheese. Well the cheese is advised at 0.69 cents and was charged 1.99$ for burnt cheese with hair inside the cheese. The sanitary conditions need to improve. The cashier was using gloves he handled food with to ring me up and didn't change gloves. Then I see the cashier / food handler shubham grab his private area and continue to fix food with the same gloves. Don't recommend.

    Outstanding! Food was fresh, service was warm and attentive. I really enjoyed the cheeseburger combo meal. The burger tasted homemade. Thick and juicy and I added grilled onions. You will need a lot of napkins! I literally felt like I ate the cleanest high quality food available. Yesenia was so kind and attentive. She checked on each guest and was knowledgeable about the Halal process. I Can't wait to try this spot again.

    This is a long story, I'll try to compress it. 1989 Burger Junction opens with brothers Ben and Sal operating the business. IMMEDIATE SUCCESS. A local car show "Florin Fat Fenders" joined every Saturday evening from spring until about Halloween time and it was a great scene. It was one of my favorite places as a kid. AMAZING burgers (The grand always did it) and cool cars. The formula worked. Time passed, the neighborhood got a little rougher, brother Ben left the picture from what I saw and although the food remained good, things like upkeep started to slide. Sal kept the ship afloat as long as he could. 7 Months ago Sal sold the restaurant to another family. The new owners added Chaat/Halaal selections to the menu. My Parents weren't crazy about it as they said it tastes different. I had to go see for myself. The Food: Yes, they were right, the food does have a different feel to it. The proportions of all the ingredients is not 100% there...yet. The bun is a little much for the patty and the burger seems to fall apart. The bun seems the same but its harder to cut for some reason. The patty (and in my case the pastrami) is different because it is halaal. However those flavors aren't it's undoing. My patty was a little overcooked and shrunk to a size that was disproportionate to the patty. The Pastrami was good but it was much thicker than previous and lost its balance of flavors. Our order was mixed up too. These are all little things but really add up. I'm hoping the chef can take this as constructive criticism as I'm hoping they succeed. The Ambiance: I'm really glad that the new owners are trying to clean the place up. There are new wall treatments and the Bathrooms look like they've been slightly remodeled. I saw buckets of paint and remodeling supplies in the back area and that was a great sign. The move to digital signage is a huge step in the right direction and the 21st century. Florin Fat Fenders: I'm really glad this part of the formula was retained. I was walking the show and overheard people mentioning that was a part of the contract when selling the business. As with my aspect of car culture you really have to work to keep it alive. A lot of folks who have Hot Rods are getting older and it becomes a lot of work to keep the culture alive. I'm glad they are making th effort. In closing there were a lot of positives to my visit today. I'm hoping the new owners can keep developing the business and bring it back to its former glory. I'm sure their wallets will appreciate that too.

    Curly Fries s Cheese Curds
    Za S.

    The employees at burger junction are pretty respectable, and they get the food out quickly. The insides reminds me of the mid 1900s. The perfect place to go after a long shift.

    Cheese Curds

    So good! First let me say the curly fries were so crispy and crunchy. The restaurant has indoor seating however it is small with limited tables. This is an order at the counter type of spot and you can dine in or take-out. We also ordered the cheese curds, onion rings, a milkshake and 2 burgers. The pineapple milkshake was delicious! It tasted like a dole whip but with fresh chunks of pineapple! They blend the milkshakes right in front so you can see how fresh it is. The burgers were huge and very tasty!

    chicken strip meals, burnt
    Moung S.

    i wanted to like this place from the good reviews but sadly we did not like the food very much. the cashier guy was nice. my kids chicken strips were burnt and fries were blah.. their beef patties were good but the burger buns def had to go. 3 stars for the nice cashier and him bringing out our food.

    Lobby area you can't tell from picture but it Smokey in here burnt food smell it not the same how it used to be
    MY O.

    I used to love this place when Ben and Sal was running it now it bad I came for there lunch specials the guy give me the gaint junction meal but it does not look like a gaint junction nor did I ask for bacon on my burger there bacon is weird too don't like it horrible taste the fries was under cook just so much wrong the sprite was fresh that best thing I can say is the food was edible

    Dave S.

    This place is not any longer what it used to be... GREAT Now under new ownership the meat is either overcooked or undersized. I strongly suggest the new owners read the customer's reviews and change things for the better before it's too late. Inside it's just as it used to be before no complaints there. Place is quiet and ambiance is all right. Looking out the window you'll see occasionally a homeless or someone pushing a cart. Area is just like everywhere in S Sac. Kinda ghetto but so is many big cities in California. 3 stars overall

    Fresh Avocado Burger Onion Rings
    Shaundra H.

    New owners. My daughter's burger was uncooked...mine was well done. When I told them of her uncooked burger, he said "I serve all my burgers medium." How? Mine was well done. I ordered the Chilli burger...the beans on the side...nowhere near 'chili'. The bun was significantly thick and I couldn't taste the contents of the burger. Honestly, I could've ordered and ate the beans alone. We ordered onion rings to share...I paid $5.99, for 5 onion rings. I can say the servers were pleasant...outside of them trying to justify that undercooked burger with that bogus excuse. I honestly have no intention of coming back.

    Garden Burger aka veggie burger
    Log E.

    Tldr: food fresh and great but not service Food: 5 stars Service: 1.5 stars unfortunately not the best since cashier was unfamiliar with the menu When ordering a garden burger make it clear it is a veggie burger you want. We got a garden salad twice even though on their menu it says "garden burger". On top of that the cashier wanted me to pay a third time for the actual garden burger (l had already paid twice and kept the first salad) instead of exchanging the 2nd salad for what we actually wanted. I unfortunately had to get the manager involved who agreed to not charge us for the exchange but did want the 2nd garden salad back. Their food is fresh and great but be prepared for a similar mishap.

The fries were actually pretty good, an above average standard French fry with salt. The burger however was phenomenal. There was an amazing crust on the outside reminiscent of a backyard bbq. There was ample bacon, lettuce, cheese and sauce to make it a balanced bite. The bun was high end brioche style, they really went all out on quality of ingredients. A standard burger build but done perfectly! Beer was cold, food was great and the ambiance is a perfect local bar. Great spot to go if you don't mind hunting for a parking space.

    First off, this was our FIRST of what will be MANY, many more visits to this ** 'Hometown' burger…read moredrive in! ~~~~~~~~~ When we visited this afternoon for the 1st time, we were greeted by the most charming woman, who we later found out was the establishment; Patricia, AND she told us her first location is in Tacoma, Washington.....which is where I was born and raised!! And they are still there after almost 12 years! Both Bruce and I are very picky when we go somewhere to have what we think is going to be a 'freshly made, and high quality beef hamburger.......'; BUT when it ACTUALLY is, and it is such HIGH quality in the entire meal (the burger, the bun, the REAL ice cream shake, and the freshly cut batter dipped, and very crispy and HOT fries) falls into this category, then I am going to be very honest with my review! This quaint, but very good sized Burger Drive In is FLAWLESS in everything!!!! The decor, food, owner/and staff, and the prices is PERFECT! The meal was so large and good, that I could not eat it all. Then when Patricia gave us 2 of each of their specially fresh made dipping sauces.......well, I could not have been more happy! BUT what set this into the 'Winners Cup' arean for me, they had REAL Reese's Peanut Butter and she even made it possible for me to have it on my FRESH and very high standard double cheese burger!!!! PERFECTLY Perfect as Mary Poppins would say. HIGHLY recommend this secret gem right almost next to the world famous Gunther's Ice Cream on Franklin Blvd. Thanks SO much for the experience; Patricia!! We will be back very soon, as I cannot wait to have the FRESH Fruit Blackberry Shake! ** Bruce had the Barq's Root Beer shake and he loved it!

    I'm saying 5 stars in terms of Fast-ish food. If you are comparing it to a fast food restaurant…read morelike Mc Donald's or Wendy's it's definitely better. If you're comparing it to In-N-Out or Five Guys it can hold its own. But these stars aren't putting it against a sit down with a server taking your order type of restaurant. First off, the service was stellar. I was wearing a veteran shirt and as I was ordering the person asked if I was a vet and proceeded to give me a discount for my service. She said this is normal and you can show your ID etc for it. There was no reason for her to do that so it surprised me. I also had a guy ask me if my table was clean enough as he was walking around cleaning up. Then later after I was on my way out he asked if I was happy with everything I had. The staff definitely made me feel welcome and happy I spent my money there. I got the double Mushroom Swiss, fries, and a soda. The first bite into the burger I was pleasantly surprised. I read some reviews about the burger being bland. Idk what they were thinking. It was a good burger. I'm not telling everyone I know they have to go there for their next meal, but it was a good burger. The fries were good. The serving was ample. I bought the Hot Mess spicy Ketchup. It was unclear that I could just get ketchup so I thought you had to order the dipping sauce. If you like spicy it definitely had some kick. I think I was expecting a lighter spice. Either way, it was good. Next time I'll probably just get regular ketchup. I wish they had malt vinegar. That would have really made me stoked. Inside the decor was nice and clean. Parking was super easy as well. If you live in Sac you know that sometimes that's really the most painful part of going somewhere. They have a huge parking lot. Overall I was happy with the experience. I'd definitely go again. I really wanted to try one of the shakes. They looked good. I had heard from a bunch of people that it was a good burger and overall I wasn't let down. Like I said at the beginning you can't compare it to a regular sit down restaurant but for what it is, it's definitely worth stopping in and grabbing a fast-ish meal!
