    Actual Chile Char burger with Angus beef
    Toby N.

    The new Chile Char burger sounds good eh? Look at the pic from actual Menu in the dining room versus my actual burger I bought. Enough said! You are better off making a normal burger at home with mayo, lettuce, tomatoes, char a green chile pepper, slap your favorite ground beef on= Best Homemade Burger

    I only like their Chocolate Cake here hehe
    Vivian H.

    I literally only like their chocolate cake here, it's the best thing on the menu. everything else is okay and it honestly depends on if you catch a worker on a good day. otherwise, just get their chocolate cake which is prepackaged so there's no way they could mess up on it. sometimes I order their fries, but that's it. just order their sides and desserts.

    This restaurant has gone down hill very badly. It is in desperate need of a new manager and/or owner. The smell, mold, and filth when you first walk in the door was enough for me to never go back until these issues are addressed. Specifically there are major problems with the drink counter. See attached pics of mold, mineral growth, foul tasting carbonated drinks, etc.

    Hand-Breaded Chicken Sandwich
    Diana C.

    I went through the drive thru and ordered a chicken sandwich for $7.28 and this is what I got....looks like they cut the chicken breast in half. What a rip off! I'm not sure if all the Carls Jr. Is trying to cut cost but this is absolutely unacceptable. Never again!

    Blood on wrappers? I was told paint? Why is there paint on food products. Does not look like ink.

    You've been warned. Don't judge a place before reading reviews, but I wish I read the reviews before coming in. $10 meal gets u a small drink, small burger, small fries and poor service

    Jalapeño thick burger
    Tiffany B.

    I really do love the burgers at Carl's Jr. They are really filling & above some other fast food chains. As far as this location, I give them 3 stars. They have their fair share of good service and bad service. Pre COVID, dining-in was fairly good. Restaurant was mostly clean & service was average. However there were times in the drive thru that they would not have the food ready in a timely manner so they would ask us to park in the parking lot and a worker would bring us our food. More recently, we were in the drive thru & waited a good while for someone to help us with our order. Overall, just an average location, not terrible. Just could be a little more consistent.

    My first taste of an In-N-Out burger was at this location, one of the first in our region to open…read moreup. Ever since, I've been coming here for their fresh and nicely grilled burgers and fries. We've literally been here dozens of times and it's been consistently good. The store is usually very clean and the layout is all the same at all the stores pretty much, so it's all good, nice and spacious, clean bathrooms, brightly lit. Over the years, this location has gotten more and more crowded at the prime times around lunch and dinner, but thankfully there are several nearby locations now, and I frequent the one at Delta Shores more since it's more conveniently located, and that one seems to be a little bit less crowded even during high times, but I still come out to this Laguna Blvd one once in awhile. The parking situation hasn't gotten any better here, unfortunately. The way the lot is situated just doesn't provide a lot of room for more parking spaces and the entrance to the lot is too close to the big intersection that this In-N-Out sits at the corner of, so it's kind of a big mess here for finding a spot, not to mention the drive thru line would effectively close off a section of the parking lot and makes it hard to get to spot over there. And the drive thru is usually very long, so I usually find a spot as close as possible, even if I'm doing take out, and hop out to order and wait in person inside to get my food to go. Most of the time though, I come w/the family and we dine in as the kids love coming here and we still ask for some of the little sticker papers for them to fiddle with while they eat. The burgers are still solid and tasty. I like all the fixings, so I usually like to have my burgers done animal style while the kids and wife opt for grilled onions and the special sauce on the side, it taste longer to ask for special ways of cooking our burgers, but it's worth the wait, we love grilled onions on our burgers. But my favorite is the fresh-cut fries that made right in the store and never from frozen potatoes, you can really taste the difference. The only thing is they use regular vegetable oil, so it's seed-oil which the wife informed me is really bad, and so now that I know I feel like I should only have it occasionally. But it's definitely a treat I won't keep myself from having whenever I come here, so maybe instead of 2 orders of fries to myself, I'll have just one with my 2 burgers. All in all, this In-N-Out is still the original in Elk Grove, and is still a good one. There's now another one that opened on Elk Grove Blvd and that I'll have to check out soon.

    Adj: Still Satisfactorily Solid and Sometimes Super…read more This location is one of the first in the greater Sacramento metro to get a In-N-Out Burger and it's been good to great since. Getting in and out of the parking lot is challenging as it's on a busy corner right at 99 and Laguna Blvd off of E. Stockton. Those of us long-timers in Sac will remember the Mervyn's that was originally across the street, yup, that whole section of E. Stockton and Laguna's quite busy, so take your time getting into the lot and not be one of those aggressive drivers/parking punks, lol... The staff are fast and friendly as they take your order and get going cooking your burgers and fries. I usually sit on the bench right by the soda fountain and wait patiently for my order if I'm taking it to go and if I'm dining in, then I quickly see if I can find a seat (or send my family to do that) before I get in line to order. Since this is a busier location, pretty much always busy so that it's slightly busy to super busy, I suggest coming here during off times between meal times and you might just find no line! That happened on a Monday evening last Nov for me when I came to pick up some burgers and fries to take to go to eat with relatives from out of state. They don't have an In-N-Out in their state so it's a special thing to them. I do like In-N-Out burgers, but I need two to be full, lol... and the fries are ok, but I'm more of steak fries type of gal, so the skinny fries, no matter how fresh and crisp, don't quite hit the spot for me. As for the dining experience, it's the same predictable layout and excellent cleanliness of any other In-N-Out location. I didn't get any pics of my burgers and fries this latest visit as I was kind of in a hurry to get going, but they gave me a couple of these super cute stickers and they're really nicely designed and I'll add a pic of it as soon as I locate my water bottle or find the loose ones. They're so cool looking that I asked for a few more so I can give them out when I went to the Delta Shores location more recently.

It seems like a tough crowd--but after my visit, I can see why expectations run high. My cheeseburger featured high-quality, freshly ground beef that was well-seasoned with a flavorful, salty crust. The patty was tender and juicy, exactly what you want from a handcrafted burger. The brioche bun was nicely toasted, and the cheese melted perfectly over the patties--both essential details that elevate a great cheeseburger. The burger was simply but thoughtfully assembled with shredded lettuce, sliced onion, pickles, and Butcher's aioli. Their house-made sauce added a nice depth of flavor without overpowering the beef. I appreciated how they kept the toppings classic and balanced--fresh, crisp lettuce, ripe tomatoes, red onion, and tangy pickles complement the richness of the patty and sauce beautifully. The fries were just as impressive. They had that ideal contrast: an ultra-crispy, golden-brown exterior with a light, fluffy interior. Perfectly seasoned, pleasantly salty, not greasy, and sturdy enough to hold their shape--they checked all the boxes. Overall, they hit all the key elements of a truly great handcrafted cheeseburger and fries. High marks from me.

Located inside the Sky River Casino, it is one of several restaurants at the food court. Lots of dining tables and pretty clean.

The burger was juicy and good as well as the fries! The patties are thick!! Service is good. Placing and receiving order is quick and efficient. Live close to this casino so will be back soon.

I'm not the kind to bash a restaurant or any type of business, but I'm gonna give my honest opinion. This place is overhyped due to social media! I wanted to try it out because I seen it on TikTok and the food looked absolutely appetizing. It was a busy Saturday evening around 730pm. I told my kids I wasn't cooking so we were going here because I wanted to try it. They were all for it because who doesn't like a good burger and since smash burgers are the way to go, why not. Upon walking in the paintings on the walls catch your eyes. It's a very casual kind of place. When looking at the menu it's very appealing and makes you want to order the whole menu lol jk. The "combos" aren't really combo meals it's just the burger and the fries, the drink is extra, for X in my book. The young lady at helping me was helpful with the questions I had. We didn't dine it we took our food home, but before we left I took pictures of the way the food looked just in case it didn't look like that when we got home. I got the jalapeño smash, my oldest had the classic combo, and my youngest had the kids combo (which included the drink). The burger IN MY OPINION was under seasoned, the jalapeño were all cut in different thickness, it wasn't something to write home to mom about. Lastly the fries reminded me of Taco Bell fries without the sweetness in the seasoning very underwhelming. Even though this wasn't a good experience for my first visit, I'm willing to go back and try something else other than the burger.
