Small hole in the wall restaurant. Semi-limited menu choices, but looked like it had some great breakfast plates. I was there for lunch and had the double cheeseburger special. Man o' man was it tasty. I was thoroughly impressed by their burger and the fries were perfectly crispy and packed into the fry bag. Also, got a couple of yellow chilis that really set the entire plate off. Not a lot of tasty burger joints around anymore especially like this. It felt real laid back and comfortable. The lady at the register was very welcoming and was very attentive. I love this family run place now and I am going to be a regular patron here moving forward. Nothing worse than seeing all my favorite places go out of business or be bought out and commercialized. I hope this place remains as gritty as it is cuz that's what makes it good. read more

Chris' Burgers - California burger - Burgers Near Me - Riverside, California

When I first moved to Rialto in 2017, this was my favorite burger place. The food was always fresh, and delicious. The last couple of years I've noticed a difference in the quality. The fries are almost always cold, or not cooked well enough so they get soggy by the time I get home, or they are not seasoned. Zucchini fries from here USED to be great but now they give you soggy, old, burned tiny pieces of zucchini and still charge like 8-10 for a small tray. I understand inflation but if you're going to charge $15 for a burger combo; at least make it fresh. Especially the zucchini fries. Disappointing read more

Do not let the building fool you. Their burger was so good. It wasn't small and it wasn't large. They grill it right infant of you and not microwave it. There is a lot of flavor as well as a good balance of lettuce. The fries I can do without, but that burger really slaps. So good. I'm drooling thinking about it now. Way better option as a fast food burger in this area! Parking is convenient. Restrooms are open. Central AC does not work, but they have a swamp cooler. The customers were even super sweet and felt like a family oriented business. Should check them out. Highly recommend. Now I'm getting hungry again. read more

The food is made to order. The order taker was very helpful when asked questions pertaining to certain items. There are hardly any people here at this time. However, I think business is more active during weekdays. By the looks of the place, this establishment has been here quite a few years. read more

We should have just left when we saw the atrocious decor,lighting and total decline of maintenance on this poor building. Service was ok. They forgot my $9. burger. Which seem to be OK after my family member said it was inedible. The zucchini fries were so overcooked. They taste like cardboard. I've been having intestinal issues three days after just tasting it. Over priced! He kept his chili in the back room.. never will I return.. read more

While venturing out on a Sunday looking for a good breakfast burrito, we came across Zorbas Restaurant on Iowa. Despite their website saying they are open until 2, they were closed at 11:30 AM. So across the street to Chris' we went! At first glance, we weren't sure if they were open. There was a couple cars in the front and a very faded sign saying "drive thru." We pulled up to the drive thru and my dad swore up and down they were closed. Right as he said to go, a voice came through the speaker box saying "what can I get you?" And we ordered. I ordered their Sausage Breakfast burrito and a side of their Homemade Zucchini with Ranch. My dad ordered a California burger combo after being told they were out of pastrami. Per my dad, the burger was average. I am almost 100% sure every mom and pop burger shop gets their pre-made burgers from the same supplier and only a few dress them up with some kind of seasoning to stand out from the crowd. This place is not one of them. The bacon on it was bacon, and the avocado was avocado, green and not brown. A good amount of avocado for those that like avocado. As for the burrito, this is where my review took a pretty bad turn. One thing they don't mention is that there's salsa on the burritos that is RIDICULOUSLY spicy. As for me, I can't stand hot (spicy) food. Hot Cheetos are pretty much my limit, and I would much rather actually taste my food. The heat from their salsa doesn't last long, but while it is there it makes it's presence known. I tried my hardest to power through the first few bites but I just couldn't. I scraped out as much salsa as I could and that's when I realized why it was there. There's not much other flavor in the burrito. Don't get me wrong, a nice salsa would definitely compliment this burrito! It was packed with egg, sausage and near-perfectly cooked hash browns. But a salsa that is so spicy ruins what could have been a great burrito. I was going to go back and order another burrito minus the salsa but they stop selling breakfast at noon. The zucchini is most definitely homemade, but that doesn't mean it's good. They are very small zucchini "nuggets" that aren't seasoned a whole lot but they are good dipped in the provided ranch. The fries would be better with a little salt, they are cooked almost like McDonald's fries. Crispy outside with a soft, fluffy inside! Despite the rating, I will be back. I would like to come back to try a burger for myself and try onion rings. I also want to order a burrito without salsa to really get the full taste of everything and see if anything has changed, flavor wise. Look out for an updated review soon! read more

I came here after I discovered Zorba's is closed on Sundays. I was craving a hamburger and realized Chris's was open and have a drive thru. So glad I did! The hamburger was delicious and my sons sandwich looked good ! He said it was delicious. I wish I would have taken pictures. We're all so hungry we ate it quickly! The charbroiled hamburger was delicious, fries were fresh and turkey sandwich looked and smelled great! The young lady who took our order very nice, professional and repeated our order too! I will return again and take pictures. I'm giving it 4 stars because I hope they fix the drive thru speaker. read more

We came here after an anime convention and had such good food. The husband wife duo was putting in major work, and it has definitely paid off. read more

Very good customer service from the lady that takes your order makes you feel at home always has a smile and says hello best burgers and monster fries in Riverside read more

We came in as a family, and we're the only ones here. It's a hole in the wall. My wife loved the fried zucchini and my daughter loved the teriyaki chicken plate. I had just a regular cheese burger and my other child had the chicken strips. The lady at the counter was rather friendly, and so was the cook. If we are ever in the area again, we will most definitely stop by. This place was great read more

I was driving around on my lunch break and came across this place randomly. The owners of the company are very sweet and welcoming. They welcomed me to the area since I'm fairly new to the Inland Empire. I tried their double cheeseburger combo. Burger and fries were delicious and hearty. Veggies were fresh. The lady even upgraded me to the large cup of soda for free. That was very nice of her. I decided to go there today for my lunch break and decided to try their fish sandwich. It was DELICIOUS. The gentleman even gave me extra fries in my bag, which I really appreciated. I know that this Yelp page isn't claimed by the owners, but wanted to share my experience on here. Whether you're deciding what to eat on your lunch break or on your way home GIVE THIS PLACE A TRY! Not only do they have burgers/sandwiches, but they also have teriyaki plates/bowls. I love how diversified their menu is. They have a loyal customer base here and for good reasons too! Great food and fair prices. read more

Inside looks like a hole in the wall and really doesn't do much for the place. Burgers are really really good though. Ask for extra dressing on the burger and you really can't go wrong. read more

Food was tasty, staff was friendly. Burger but was big as in 5" round so the meat was kinda flat to equal the 1/4 lb ... i woulda preferred a 1/3 lb burger or a smaller bun (and thicker burger) but it was good nonetheless. Fries were good and sized right. They had a good variety to choose from and my buddy had the chicken burrito which he scarfed down! When i go back im gonna try the teriyaki bowl. read more

Just moved in the area and was looking for a good ol burger joint I had tried zorbas several times since moving in the area but got tired of how ridiculous expense they were so started looking else where to eat and came across this little gem. PLEASE WHATEVER YOU DO DONT JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER!!!! YES THE OUTSIDE IS RUN DOWN AND IT DOESN'T LOOK THE BEST BUT THE FOOD AND SERVICE IS GREAT AND PRICING IS EXTREMELY FAIR. I have been back now 3 times all 3 times food was great a new favorite place to go seems the place is family owned and very small operation so I feel better knowing my money is going to a family then a corporation. read more

I will never go eat Here Again Nasty chili cheese fries that were sour nasty and old and the owner replaced it with a cheese burgergood luck. Cause Y'all gone need it. read more

This relatively new hole-in-the-wall is located in a dicey part of town (but then again, what part of Riverside isn't dicey, yanno? ;)) and owned by a gracious Korean family. Had it not been for a friend who suggested having lunch at this place during college, this place would have gone unnoticed by me driving down Iowa. It's quaint on the outside but clean inside, at least the last few times I was there when they'd just opened. Their menu includes an offering of your traditional American fast food and diner fare, including some awesome breakfast deals I've been meaning to try but just never got around to. Did I mention they have a convenient drive-thru? =) The food is fresh and much better quality than any fast food joint around. Portions are great and the prices even better. If you're into grilled sourdough burgers like I am, try their San Franciscan burger. You'll never go back to that Sourdough Jack again. read more

Thought I'd give this place a try. When I stepped in, it reminded me of Troy's Burgers on Valley Blvd. in Los Angeles. So my boyfriend and I ordered food to go. My food ended up being okay but my complaint lies in the service and sanitation of this place. First of all, the cashier lady was evidently miserable. We tried to talk to her and be friendly but it was obvious that she wanted to be left alone. She was sweating bullets despite the fact that it was nighttime! Then again, they can just be working her like crazy, leading her to dislike this job. Sanitation problem: she was being really dirty wiping her sweat and was not wearing a hairnet or any gloves. So when the korean man went to make our food, we were standing right there when he spilled our fries all over the counter. He quickly scooped them all up and put it in our bag like it never happened! I was kind of appalled. When we got out food and was about to walk out the door, he called us back in. He left the bacon on the grill. So he opened my boyfriend's burger and put it back in. The bacon was kinda old too, let me warn you. We wanted some extra thousand island and he wanted to charge us. So we decided -- never mind. As I was eating the french fries later on, I felt something kind of hard. I pulled it out of the french fries and IT WAS... ______ A DIRTY, THIN, METAL WIRE!!!_______ Can I say: totally unsanitary and disgusting? It probably fell in there when he dropped the fries and still scooped it into our bag!!! So, the service sucks and this place should be closed down because it is evidently violating rules of sanitation!! So my recommendation: save yourselves and go elsewhere! In fact, go walk across the street to Zorbas'!! There are more people over there for a reason!! read more

My first time here and I really enjoyed my hamburger combo!!! Good sized burger and plenty of fries! They have Mr. Pibb!!! I will definitely be back and check out their other options! The drive thru is kind of unusual. Where you order is by the back parking lot near the field. You order there and then turn up back towards the restaurant and pay. Yummy yummy! :) read more

5 - service 5 - not the best food, certainly tasty and satisfying. 4 - location is not the best, must give the owners credit for great food and service. 5 - price is fair for fast food of it's type. Cheeseburgers, chicken sandwich, onion rings, zucchini, and fries are great tasting. I will update as I try the different A must try if you like traditional Greek Style eateries. read more

Use to have a good pastrami now it's full of mustard and cheap meat, Chicken fried steak sandwich is a Wendy's crispy chicken sandwich with mayo. Not even close to a real order. Management response was, "everybody else likes it" it is just this weeks special. Lack luster at best with nobody caring about the food and only hitting the cash register then going back on their phones. How clean could that be if they play on their phones the whole time. I have a 3yr old and a 6yr old and they even thought this place was well under serviced for fast food as it is treated. Don't charge restaurants prices for fast food service!!! read more

Just came in with my wife to get the very best hamburger she's ever had, after just one bite the words that came out were "if I didn't live in America and wanted a hamburger that stood out this would be it" some yummy fresh bread, delicious fries that were perfectly done tastes like mashed potatoes on the inside of every crispy fry, and the chicken in the chicken burrito was fresh, well seasoned, and juicy. The tortilla was soft and fluffy and the salsa was spicy but very flavorful. I grew up eating here and will continue to drive 20+ mins to eat here and now I'm glad my family likes it as much as childhood me. Can highly recommend this joint! read more

Was in the area Google Restaurant near me and end up here.. we had order couple burger meals and those were tasty. zucchinis we're crispy small size and tasty, the tea was to bitter. Steak sandwich comment was dry no flavor.. The inside is Very unsanitary Dirty. To a point where Better business Bureau would shut it down. Sadly to say my most disappointment is the Hot dirty restaurant. Don't even want to think of the cook wear. read more

This place deserves a 0 star rating. They are a discriminating company. A friend of mine ( female) recently went in for an interview and was instantly denied the job because she is not a male. The position was for a line cook. The owner said" you can not have the job because you are not a man. This is a mans job." In support of all women out there, do not eat at Chris burgers. read more

This place isn't much to look at, being frozen in time circa 1965. Out of curiosity I tried it since it is a long walk from the office and I need the exercise. Zorba's is across the street and has much more traffic. I am now a fan. Their Frisco Burger is excellent and their basic cheeseburger is outstanding. I walk down there at least once a week. I've never had food that is not clean and very fresh. Haven't checked out the restroom that people are complaining about. read more

Seems like they are making an effort here, but the food quality is just not as good as it should be. My Girlfriend and I dined here recently and OK, was the best we could give their food. I'm sure their business is not that good as during the time we were there, only four or so people came in during lunch hour. I doubt if we would come back to this place after the last time dining here. They need someone who is a pro in the industry to help them as they do not seem to really understand the restaurant business. read more

Nice service very fast and efficient. The food was okay meat needed a little more flavor to it and the build was hot.

Walked in, a little dingy looking and smelled like stale grease. Normally I would have left but I was starving, and there were a decent number of people there. I ordered the burger combo then went to the restroom. Wow! Disgusting! Toilet, walls, floor, sink, all filthy! Filthy like it had not been cleaned in a few months. I just walked out, and will never return. read more

I had actually planned on going to Zorbas across the street but the drive thru line was long and I remembered always being happy with Chris's. I drove thru and got the burger special. I had to wait a couple minutes at the window but was cool with that figuring they were making my food on the spot. I really enjoyed the burger and the fries had a few that were ever so slightly over done which I love. Looking forward to going back for the same. read more

Wifey brought one of the regular cheese burgers for me so when I got home I munched on it and well I gotta say I loved it and this is coming from a Zorbas regular customer don't get me wrong I love zorbas but I'm definitely gonna keep this place in mind when we are in the area. read more
