    This is a Carl's Jr with a Green Burrito menu addition. They are open for 24 hours. They are in an easy location. I don't see many people frequent this place, but they do get customers, mostly drive-thru. The interior is very clean - basically spotless when I went. The service is alright. They follow the fine print of the coupons I always get in the mail. The fried chicken is kind of sad, but I enjoy the sides like fries and onion rings. I think they are known for their waffle fries. Their buttermilk ranch is good. I have taken menu photos (you're welcome) and I do not know who purchases at full price. They randomly have a lot of nice outdoor seating. I feel like this location could turn into a happening modern American diner or brunch place, but you know... it's my Carl's Jr!

    Not a single piece of meat on the Big Country Breakfast Burrito, I guess you have to be brain dead to not know your own menu

    Can't make simple things correctly , like a burrito that comes with meat or the sizing of the beverages

    $7 burritos are skinnnnnnyyyyy!!! Scam! I hope mgmt sees this and do not become surprised when they shut down due to lack of business.

    Receipt to show it's not worth eating here

    You would expect that because someone is paying $16 for a meal that it would be a FULL meal. Right? Am I mad? Hell Yeah. I was starving. Not only is this damn meal $16 but you guys couldn't even give at least all 9 pieces dude. PMO. Moral of my story: just wait in McDonald's and Taco Bell's line. (I gave one star for the hot fries and drink)

    I go to this Super Duper location for lunch often when I am in the area and enjoy the quality of…read moretheir burgers. Although Super Duper is considered a fast food burger joint, its burgers are definitely a step up from McDonald's and Habit but probably on par with Five Guys minus the loads of toppings included. The burgers and sandwiches have never taken more than ten minutes to prepare but I usually order ahead when I am in a hurry. For this recent visit I ordered their B.E.C. Burger on their kiosk for dine in. While waiting, I was able to self serve my own water and pickles are available by the drinks. My burger was ready in about five minutes and I thought it was a nice gesture to arrange the Super sauce as a smiley face on the inside top bun (I found out this is the norm and nothing out of the ordinary for this burger). The 1/4 pound burger was a good size with the added bacon, fried egg, cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, and Super sauce. The egg obviously got a little runny and messy but good thing paper towels are readily available. Aside from their burgers, Super Duper has a very good fried chicken sandwich. The fries are just okay to me and I have not tried any of their sweet offerings. This location usually has music playing inside and the staff is generally nice and helpful, going around to each table asking how the diners' experiences are. The tables are cleaned promptly after each use. I've always had a positive experience at this Super Duper.

    We got the super burger with a fried egg + the Poblano burger with a lettuce wrap…read more The super burger was really good and I'd recommend everyone to get it. The poblano burger is the weekly special but wasn't really flavorful. This was my first time trying the lettuce wrap and it wasn't my favorite (I usually love the In n Out protein burger but I'm not a fan of the lettuce they used here). I would just order the super burger with the regular bun the next time I come. We also ordered the weekly special milkshake which was Mango with Tajin flavored and that was really good! I'd get that again for sure. You order at a kiosk machine, so no tip is needed. The food came out pretty quickly, and there's a jar of pickles in the side which I'm a big fan of. This is a casual place, lots of seating, great for a quick but satisfying bite.

We'll definitely be coming back to try more from the menu!

Haha…read more The diner vibe has been beckoning to the nostalgic part of me as I grow with my kids so give them the same experience. I love this location way more than Menlo Park. I'm bummed they took away the options to add your own produce as I didn't like that option pre covid (tastes and opinions have changed). The burger bowl with the ahi sauce is so filling and delicious. I wish they sold that sauce separately so I can put on my breakfast. Seriously consider it, I'd buy it by the bottle. The kids really enjoyed the kid menu and seating. I'm surprised the patty sizes of the burgers were big and seasoned just enough. I'll definitely be back.

    Amazing food and ambiance!…read more Came here for lunch and really enjoyed it. It has a retro vibe, which I feel is pretty rare for the Bay Area. It was super empty when I arrived (late 11am ish) but it picked up really fast. There's tons of seating inside, including at the counter. The staff is also great and the food came out super fast. The food was really good. I'm quite picky about my burgers, and theirs was amazing. The meat is tender and flavorful, the bun is soft, and the dressing compliments everything well. In addition, I got a milkshake and chili cheese fries. The milkshake felt like 3 servings, so there's definitely a ton of value. I thought I under ordered, but the portions were so big that I had to take it to go. I'd recommend this place and I'll definitely be going again!

    OK fries. By no means comparable to Potato Corner, but will get the job done if you're craving some…read morehot fries while roaming downtown SM. There is a second floor, so plenty of seating. This time I tried their chili BBQ and asked for it to be extra seasoned. I wasn't sure if they were actually extra seasoned though, tbh. And while the fries were piping hot and fresh, they fell short on the crispiness. They were just hot and soft? I've also gotten the seaweed flavor before, and I can't quite put my finger on it, but I'm just not too fond of their seasonings for some reason.

    Cool fries, potato guys…read more If you haven't guessed, they specialize in fries. They took over C Food Crush, which used to be San Mateo's only cajun boil place. It's a little odd for a french fry place to have a spacious area, as there's an entire seating area upstairs (so great for hangouts). There's also tables outside, but no seating on the first floor. They also do burgers and other fried snacks. Wish they still had soft serve, but it's discontinued. For their made-to-order crispy fries, you pick either regular or large, the style of fries, and then the flavor/seasoning. Just pick whatever you like best; you can do half and half flavors. Cajun is solid, similar to the cajun fries at any seafood boil place. Seaweed pepper salt is exactly like the Calbee seaweed potato chips - subtly sweet and umami. The garlic + parm flavor was a bit too thick and strong on the parm for me. Large is definitely worth sharing, though you can share regular, too, if you're okay with snack portions. They stack the fries high in the cup! Their chicken sandwich tastes like an upgraded McChicken, and their other fried items are just okay. I'd go here exclusively for the fries unless you want to junk out, as the prices are pretty reasonable. Because items are made to order, it will take at least 5 minutes to get your order unless you're the only customer, so don't expect fast food speed.

    There's a reason people from all over the Peninsula make the trip to this Irish pub on weekend…read morenights. it's become one of the few places in San Carlos that truly feels like nightlife. By day, it's warm, welcoming, and family-friendly. You'll see families enjoying dinner, friends catching up over drinks, and locals stopping in for great food and hospitality. But once Friday night hits, the entire atmosphere transforms. The lights dim, the music turns up, the dance floor fills, and the energy becomes something you'd expect to find in a much bigger city. Friday nights bring a fun mix of crowds; from younger groups looking for DJs, dancing, cocktails, and nightlife energy, to older guests enjoying the live music, atmosphere, and social vibe. Honestly, I'm a little older myself and still absolutely love the younger, high-energy scene here. It's fun, welcoming, and never feels out of place no matter your age. That's what makes this place so unique. Everyone fits in and everyone has a great time. Then Saturdays bring a completely different experience with live artists and an incredible variety of music. One weekend you'll hear young country performers getting the crowd singing along, and the next you'll find authentic Irish fiddlers creating that classic pub atmosphere everyone loves. That variety is what keeps people coming back..every weekend offers something different and memorable. The food is outstanding, the beer and cocktail selection is excellent, and the hospitality is second to none. I finally had the chance to meet Molly, the owner, and it's easy to see why this place has built such a loyal following. Her passion for creating a place where everyone feels welcome shows in every detail. From the amazing service to the live entertainment and unforgettable atmosphere, this isn't just another local pub. It's become a destination spot and one of the true nightlife gems in San Carlos. Highly recommend checking it out, especially on the weekends.

A traditional Irish breakfast must contain Black and White pudding (a ground sausage, oatmeal and spices), Irish sausage (tastes like a banger), Irish bacon (more like thinly sliced ham), eggs. and tomato baked beans. It's delicious! I hope they get more business though! I really like this place!
