    cheeseburger and classic burger
    Kathleen W.

    This place looked wuite appealing from reviews so we came through post run We got a cheeseburger and classic burger along with a side of fries. Food was fresh, crispy and delicious. It was very satisfying and the married couple clearly have a lot of regulars coming through as so many people got take out from here. The burgers are solid and a nice size ~ I love that they're bigger than usual and not teeny tiny. Murals are also adorable with a picture of the mom and pop and fast food itemsnin a car~

    Classic Burger & Onion Rings

    [IN A NUTSHELL] mom & pop shop burger spot, classic burgers [VERDICT] - APPROVED [RUN-DOWN] A great spot if you are looking for some good classic burgers that are authentic and not cheap fast food. This was recommended to me by a co worker and a cute little shop with a classic diner vibes. [SCORE & ORDER] OVERALL: 3.25/5 Classic Burger $ (3.5/5) -Cheese Burger with Pastrami -A classic cheese burger with a twist of sliced/bits of pastrami. I decided to get this since it was the name of the restaurant. The burger came with lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles (I did not get), ketchup, and mustard (I did not get) and pastrami. The pastrami was interesting and I don't think I am a pastrami guy. No matter though because the burger was just as delicious. It was super juicy and flavorful. For a mom and pop shop, it tasted like a classic burger place. The burger was also super hefty and was full just from the burger. A nice touch to the burger was that the top of the bun was also toasted which gave a nice crispy taste to the burger itself. Onion Rings $ (3/5) -The classic onion rings... Nothing to special about the onions rings but they were nonetheless delicious. Super crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. [SERVICE & ATMOSPHERE] (not reflected upon review score): We came on a weekday lunch time and the sit down was not as busy but there were people ordering to go. There is also a soda machine if you get that option. The staff was super nice and I believe she is the owner of the restaurant.

    I've heard about this place for years since moving into town and never got the chance to try it until today. It is truly a town's jewel. The classic cheeseburger is a must. The fries were not greasy; onion rings were simple and yet tasty. The classic cheeseburger was simply delicious. Freshly made by the friendly owners. This will be our new go to burger place!

    Nice lil burger joint. Had very retro/vintage restaurant vibes. The food itself was pretty good & the staff were super nice. I enjoyed the burger meat. Wasn't the biggest fan of NY steak sandwich meat was a little too chewy for my liking but solid food. Next time will get the cheeseburger, fry/combo for $13

    Was craving a Philly cheese steak and decided to give Classic Burger a chance. I was pleasantly surprised and thoroughly enjoyed my sandwich! Bread is soft and warm and the meat was tender and flavorful, with the cheese melted perfectly. Note the sandwiches are a bit small and probably won't fill you if you're super hungry though.

    I've heard about this place for years having lived in the area for some time. I love the pastrami burger at Utah's Crown Burger so I was looking forward to trying this place! It's located in a little strip mall on Hesperian, definitely a hole in the wall kind of place. Old school menu board, older style tables/benches, it has that 1980's mom and pop kind of vibe. They are a bit understaffed when it gets busy but the food is cooked to order and they bring it out to you on an old school orange tray. I got the pastrami burger and fries. Portions were good sized and the pastrami burger was pretty good. Decent place to get a greasy burger from a local spot.

    Damn it's my fault for sleeping on this place for too long. I would pass by it almost every day going to work in 2018/19, just never been. There's hella parking and easy to get to. When you see the sign and that thing is faded you know the food is about to smackerino. The place is clean and hella nostalgic. The burger is good, it's just a classic burger with no frills. The service is good too, they bring it out for you and pretty quick.

    Wowzers! This place was amazing! While Yelping looking for a good place to eat I came across this gem of a restaurant and so happy I did! I saw all the reviews and nothing but positives so I had to try it. Pulled up and got to the counter. The lady at the counter was helpful, nice, and just wanted me to feel welcome! I asked what would be the best burger since it was my first time. She said the classic burger is what they've known for so I had to try! Wow! This burger was bursting with flavor, had that slightly toasted bun, lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, must and mayo, bacon patty and pastrami and Swiss cheese! Yummmm!! I also ordered the fries that were cooked perfectly not oily and just right! This burger I can't stop talking about because it tasted homemade and with that flavor that can only come from a grill that's been used for years and has that old school taste to it! The burger was juicy and just done right! I highly recommend you stop here and have the burger yourself! With the sesame buns I like, this burger is a home run! If in the area, live close by, driving by or staying close by, you gotta try this place! You will not be disappointed!! I might have to drive from the Sacramento area again to come have this burger more often!

    My husband and I stopped by Classic Burger in San Lorenzo on a Saturday at 1:15 PM. When we walked in, there were only three other people, so we weren't sure if it was going to be good since it wasn't packed. But soon after we placed our order and sat down, the place quickly filled up -- a good sign! From the moment we walked in, I was pleased to notice there was NO overpowering cleaner smell--my pet peeve--and the place was clean, cool, and welcoming. The staff was friendly and attentive, which made our experience even better. I really appreciated that we could see the food being cooked -- it's always reassuring to see freshness and cleanliness in the kitchen. We split a double cheeseburger and fries, and the food was delivered by a staff member piping hot, which was perfect. The burger was fantastic! I could taste the char of the grill, and the meat was nice and thick and meaty. The lettuce, tomato, and grilled onions added the perfect touch of flavor. The fries were hot and fresh, and the bun was just right -- soft, not too thick or bready, with sesame seeds that I love. Everything felt cozy and inviting -- a great spot to hang out and enjoy great-tasting, hot, fresh food. We'll definitely be back. Thanks for a fantastic quick meal!

    I was craving a bigass burger, and this place definitely hit the spot. Exactly the kind of char-grilled taste I was looking for. The place is pretty unassuming from the outside, but definitely worth stopping by for a classic diner-style burger. Service was fairly quick given that I had to wait a little for my burger, but it was made to order. Would definitely come back when I'm in town again!

    Touching food with bare unwashed hands
    Trenise L.

    I was going to order, but I witnessed this man using his bare unwashed hand grabbing onion rings and putting them into the fryer. Then he proceeds to ring someone up and go back to using his unwashed hands to handle food! He needs to learn how to properly handle food!

    Been wanting to try this place since i saw it randomly one day getting coffee a couple doors over…read more What intrigued me was the eye catching theme of a fun comic book/ toy / cartoon vibe. I love all places that have a theme that sets them apart from other establishments. Especially ones that have names for their menu items that are jovial. There's ample seating and the place is fun inside, with comic books on the walls, toys displayed and bright colors everywhere it really gives a burst of dopamine when you come in. We were greeted initially by the gentleman at the counter. He was super friendly and asked if we had any questions. Idk bout yall but when we go somewhere and the person refers to you as "boss" you can kinda feel the vibe that you're gonna get good service. And it was exactly spot on. The dude helped us with questions we had and after ordering let us know he'd bring our food to us. We waited a couple mins and our food came out! Initially my first thought was "damn, they're not stingy with their portions here!" We opted for the Goku fries and a regular Deadpool sandwich. It being our first time we wanted to try different flavors. BRUH, that food smacked SO HARD! We slammed everything and kept saying, wow this is good. The ingredients were fresh, the green sauce (whatever it is) was delicious on our sandwich! We will for sure be back & tell all of our friends about this place!

We tried the Ed Edd and Eddy and the Mr. Burns. Both were really good on Dutch crunch. We also customized our sandwiches by adding pickles, banana peppers and onions. I believe the sandwich comes with the standard lettuce and tomato. Easy place to grab a solid sandwich in my opinion. Can't go wrong with any of them. We'll be back to try their fries and other sandwiches.

We arrived a few minutes before their opening time of 10:00am. We stepped in after they opened their doors. A server told us to sit anywhere.

I ordered the Beef Rib Pho, and she ordered the Special Pho which has Rare Beef Brisket, Flank, Tendon, Tripe and Beef Meatballs. With Pho, before we add anything to the base bowl, we stir up the broth and try it first. Mine was good but gave a hint of salt. Hers had a richer beefier flavor. I was wondering if that was because of the Rare Beef. My Beef Rib was accompanied by a saucer with a pair of scissors to cut up the Beef. It was so tender and flavorful. On the side plate was the usual array of Basil, Bean Sprouts, Jalapeno Peppers and Lemon Wedge. Service was efficient. We'll be back to try other flavors.
