    I came to Fatburger expecting a burger. What I got was a life affirming experience a culinary awakening and a masterclass in leadership all courtesy of Elijah the manager who I can only assume was forged in the fires of hospitality Mount Olympus. First the food. Calling it good would be a gross understatement and frankly disrespectful. This burger did not just arrive at my table it made an entrance. The patty was juicy in a way that suggested it had been emotionally supported throughout its cooking journey. The bun was toasted to the exact level that scientists have been chasing for decades. The toppings were crisp fresh and clearly aware of their role in something bigger than themselves. Every bite whispered you made the right choices in life. Now let us talk about Elijah. This man is not a manager he is a conductor and Fatburger is his orchestra. He moves through the restaurant with the calm confidence of someone who knows deep down that everything is handled. Orders flow smoothly. Staff are upbeat. The vibe is immaculate. If customer service had a gold standard Elijah would be the benchmark and everyone else would just be updating their resumes. At one point Elijah checked in not in the forced robotic how is everything way but in the kind of way where you feel like he genuinely cares about your happiness your meal and possibly your long term goals. I would not be surprised if he also does motivational speaking on the side. The place itself was clean efficient and humming with positive energy. Even the soda machine seemed happier than usual. I have eaten burgers all over but few places make you feel like you are part of something important like you did not just grab lunch you participated in excellence. In summary The food was legendary. The service was impeccable. Elijah is a national treasure. If you are hungry go to Fatburger. If you want great service go to Fatburger. If you want to witness what happens when leadership burgers and destiny align definitely go to Fatburger and hope Elijah is working. I came in for a meal. I left with a full stomach a happy soul and dangerously high expectations for every burger I eat from now on. Highly recommend. Would write another review if allowed. Would follow Elijah into battle.

    I love this spot !!! I usaully go inside, today I decided to use drive through was super quick and delicious!!!! Perfect spot to hit with the late night munchies, this spot has to be one of my favorite spots to go on lunch and when I feel like getting a burger. The staff is always so nice and chill to talk to. They always help me quickly and are always nice and friendly to talk to.

    Good food, but I can see where everyone's "beef" is coming from. Most of the negative reviews mention the drive-thru time and they're not wrong. Our drive-thru experience here took about 25 minutes from the time we ordered to the time we got our bag of food. It was a long wait, but the food is actually pretty good. First off, the portions here are huge and (surprise surprise) the food actually matches the pictures on the ordering window. I got the King Burger with everything and my wife ordered the chicken crispy sandwich. The burger was massive! I only ate half and saved the other half for lunch the next day. My wife's sandwich had an entire chicken breast on it and it was insanely juicy. The kid's meals were pretty basic, just some nuggs and fries. Would I came back? Probably not. At least for a long time; with the wait for food and the high prices (about $50 for our order) it's not quite worth it for me. Pro Tip: Order everything a la cart and you'll save at least $2-3 per person. The combo meals are steep!

    Expired Buns...REALLY!

    I've never received a fresh bun from this place. This place is one of those places...where were like...well..."let's give it another shot...".

    It was kind of late and maybe worked were tired. They were not in the mood or something. Sounded kind of rude on the microphone. We ordered the king burger and they didn't ask us if we wanted cheese. We didn't think we needed to ask. The picture on the menu has it so we thought it was with. The thousand island burger was ok. It had great flavor. It didn't have cheese but we didn't mind. The Cajun chicken seemed overcooked and was ok. I had better. The drive through was open until 2:00 am.

    Getting onion rings to go with lunch! Ordered on the Yelp app. Making it convenient! Paid for it and it said when it would be ready. I went to get it shortly later! Nice place. Clean, safe & practiced! Greeted by nice worker & order handed over with good day wishes! Appreciated! Lunchtime! Onion rings split! Definitely, not fresh! Tasted old. Pretty disappointing, but at least the worker was nice & it was convenient to order on the Yelp app & go pick up. Mother felt the same.

The vibe here is a 50's burger and shakes type of place. They have indoor dining and a drive-thru; we chose the drive-thru option. The menu is classic burgers, fries, shakes, along with fish n chips, fried shrimp, and a fried fish sandwich. We ordered two cheese burgers, a double jalapeno burger, mozzarella sticks, and two sundaes. Everything is made fresh to order, so you might be waiting, but it's totally worth it! My burger had two huge patties, bacon, cheese, and tons of jalapenos. I just got the burger, no combo, and it was stuffed! My son loved his burger and devoured it. Stated it was the best burger he's had. My wife loved her burger as well and we both loved the mozzarella sticks. The burger combos came with fries and a drink. Their fries here are very good. They add a spiced seasoning to the fries that boosts the flavor without being too salty. The sundaes were a great way to end the meal and the ice cream tasted like real slow churned ice cream. The next time you pass by Sam's Burger, do yourself a favor and grab a burger for the road!

The man that took our food order was very nice and helpful. It was so good I ate it two days in a row. Being a lover of hamburgers is what I pride myself with being able to spot a great burger and they did their job. Make sure you upside the fries because the size that come with it in my eyes aren't enough but I'm a fry lover. The ambiance is an average burger joint in Cali nothing special but I will say it was clean outside and in. When in Fresno I will make sure to come back in and order what I will call my usual. My double burger with added grilled onions and extra pickles fully dressed hold the cheese please lol.

    Could this be the best value for a combo meal ever? I am leaning toward - Yes!…read more 9.99 for a combo meal ( cheeseburger , fries and drink) . Sign me up! What's even better is that the burger is so damn tasty. Spoiler alert - they add thousand island to your burger so if you don't like that you may want to say no sauce on your burger. The burger comes standard with lettuce , tomato, onion , and pickles. I don't like pickles or onions so I get mine without. The burger is fresh, the cheese is tasty and the bun holds up nicely. I wouldn't change a thing on these burgers. Similar to In -n- out , but more tasty and the patties are bigger! The fries were a little under seasoned , but I do love a crinkle fry. The onion rings were crispy, seasoned perfectly and went well with the ranch or ketchup. I love this place. It is one of those spots that is good but doesn't act like it. The food is delicious and the value is tremendous. I might even take my teenagers here next time. They sure can eat a ton! Do yourself a favor and try this place out. Every other combo meal from anywhere else won't stack up - I guarantee it!

    I have passed by this place several times and have always been curious. When I looked at the menu,…read moreit looked like food from every typical burger place with equally high prices. I was proven wrong today when I finally went to try it. The burgers were big and filled! Like, no empty spaces, every bite perfection (unlike typical burger places). Also, the prices felt worth it after seeing the actual food. The beef patties are never frozen according to their advertising and they tasted fresh and juicy. I was very impressed with the quality and the flavor. I ordered the western burger and my husband ordered the pastrami burger. They were both out of this world delicious. We also ordered the chicken strip which was crispy and seasoned well and we also ordered the fried mushrooms which were also crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Additionally!!! They had a sign in the drive through that said Free Pupcups, and since we had our dog with us, we asked to get one. They have peanut butter or bacon flavored whipped cream with a animal cookie safe for dogs. I dipped my finger in the whip cream to try it and it was not sweet at all which I was very happy about to give to my dog. As if that wasn't enough, the lady at the drive through even gave us a second cup with 3 additional animal cookie dog treats! This experience was so satisfying that we have decided to come here next time we are craving burgers. The staff was so generous and friendly & the food was amazing and yummy. Even the drive through menu was organized neatly for easy ordering. Never again will we go to McDonald's or Burger King because this place has better food for the same price.

As someone who follows mostly a plant-based diet, I was overjoyed to discover such tasty options. The Date Night Brussels Sprouts were absolutely amazing; roasted to perfection with a crispy exterior and tender interior, coated in a sweet-savory glaze that had just the right balance of flavor and texture. They were so delicious that I couldn't get them out of my mind! The plant-based dumplings were just as scrumptious, and we even savored the leftovers for breakfast at the hotel the next day. The restaurant boasts a warm and inviting atmosphere, the service was top-notch, and the location is incredibly convenient, only a short drive from the airport to our hotel. We will certainly make Colton's Social House a regular stop whenever we fly into FAT. With no Delta Sky Club and limited plant-based dining options at the airport, this is the ideal first (or last) stop. Highly recommend!
