    Came here for lunch The place has a nostalgic diner setting and was pretty clean inside. I ordered the pastrami burger which was a mistake. The pastrami was very low grade, thick and chewy. The rest of the burger was decent but nothing impressive. Buns tasted like something from the grocery store and the patty had a nice char to it but was not very big or high quality. The staff was nice and the burger came out pretty fast, so that's a plus.

Definitely hits the spot every time. Service is always friendly and welcoming, and the ambiance is casual and laid-back. It's a great spot to grab a burger and hang out with friends or family. Definitely one of my go-to spots!

    The Baseline: For a Burger-joint the burgers, fries, and drinks are prepared well, done with…read moreproperly applied ingredients that should taste good, and any unique offerings should not take away from the basis of the burger itself. Food: Good solid smash Burger (5 stars) which hit all the notes. We had single and double cheeseburgers which had a good amount of salty, crusty beef patties with melted cheese. The toppings added to the burger and didn't overtake the flavor of the burger itself. The sweet potato fries were thicker and were a good decent fry (4 stars). The shoestrings were clean cooked in beef tallow though I like thicker fries I understand they are still better than average (4 stars). I would come back for the food. Service: Great service counter to cook to counter. Asked on which condiments we needed and were friendly and helpful. Good service experience (4 stars). Ambiance: This is a "Batman Location". By the day it is mild mannered Big Mike's El Segundo (also a great sandwich place) but by night it becomes the Dark Knight of Burgers "Spread, Please!" That being said I appreciate the business model for them to operate and get some brick and mortar time rather than being in a food truck. Outside seating available al fresco style on the sidewalk and limited seating inside. It can get a bit hot inside due to the cooking and that adds into the summer heat when we went. Overall a 3 star experience.

Pro Tip: Make sure to order at the counter before you go grab a table! It operates like a standard self-serve joint, so keep that setup in mind when deciding how much you want to tip at checkout . Bacon Jam Burger: Loved the balance of sweet and salty here! Flavor-wise it was great, though I do wish the patties were a bit thicker. Hot Honey Sage Fries: A total hit! If you're a fan of sweet potato fries with a sweet-and-spicy kick, you'll thoroughly enjoy these. Green Chili Queso Fries: Yummy and cheesy, but I wished it leaned a bit heavier on the green chili flavor. Strawberry Guava Lemonade: Highly recommend! So delicious and refreshing.

The cashier was friendly enough as I ordered an El Diablo burger and a banana foster shake. They do ask what level of doneness you want the burger which I just let the cashier decide. The shake was way too sweet for me but it did taste like delicious custard and bananas. The texture was mostly smooth but the overwhelming sweetness really kills it. The el diablo burger packed an explosive punch that set my mouth ablaze. The pepper jack and onions help with the flavor of the beef, which was itself delicious, and the sauces added complexity to the heat. Be warned that this burger is really spicy but I think the flavor of is pretty well done for a burger. All in all, worth trying again but the blemish of that shake is pretty sad for such a nice flavor.

    Don't let the fact that this is inside a little liquor store fool you--this place is an absolute…read morehidden gem. You order inside and pick up your food at the window outside, and the whale mural surrounding the pickup window is such a fun, memorable touch. There are a couple of benches outside if you want to eat there, although I noticed most people seemed to grab their food to go. The food was absolutely incredible. I ordered the Cash Burger, and it was packed with flavor. The burger was perfectly seasoned, cooked just right, and honestly one of the best burgers I've had in a long time. Even a simple burger here tastes like it was made with care. The truffle Parmesan fries were another standout--crispy, flavorful, and completely addictive. We also tried two dipping sauces: the habanero cream and the chipotle. Both were delicious and added a unique twist to the burger and fries, but the habanero cream was definitely my favorite. It's not often you find sauces that elevate an already great meal this much. My only suggestion would be to improve the outdoor seating area. The benches could use a little more attention, and having a better trash setup would make eating outside much more enjoyable. One thing that really sold me was my one-year-old. She absolutely devoured the burger! I usually have to work to get her to eat anything besides quesadillas, and even In-N-Out can be hit or miss with her, so that says a lot. Overall, I'm so glad we stopped here. Between the amazing food, fun atmosphere, and beach-town vibe, I'd happily go out of my way to come back. If you're anywhere nearby, don't miss this spot!

Now, I'm not gonna hold you... it was expensive. I ordered through DoorDash and got a burger with jalapeño ranch, bacon, cheese, and a prickly pear lemonade. (The lemonade honestly just tasted like regular lemonade. Nothing to hype up.) My friend got tacos, a blueberry lemonade, and ranch, and somehow our total came out to $78. Absolutely wild. But back to this burger... I got it cooked medium rare, of course. I actually asked for no house sauce, but they put it on there anyway. Normally I'd be annoyed, but honestly... it didn't even matter because that burger was STILL incredible. As I was biting into it, the juices were literally running down my hands, onto my shirt, and onto my pants. Did I care? Absolutely not. I ate about 75% of it in one sitting because it was huge. Later, I came back and finished the rest cold because it had lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles on it, and I was too lazy to take everything off just to warm it up. And somehow... it was still delicious cold. Oh, and the tater tots? Super crispy. They paired perfectly with the jalapeño ranch.
