All the ingredients are fresh. Well balancing... Especially brioche bun is premium. As Tap beers, we tried 3 different flavors, Indian ale, my mango, one more flavor...everything was great. $1 OFF for loyal members. My hubby likes the onion rings. Today was the same taste, super crunchy. We like the Stand because the service and quality are super. Next time we will be back for the movie. So close each other, Regal Edward's and the Stand. Perfect place for the movie and good eating.

Today was my first in-house visit to the Stand (have ordered delivery in the past - so have been a…read morefan of the food for awhile), and although I don't generally love counter ordering, I was pleasantly surprised by the incredibly friendly service and the fact that even though it was a busy Saturday afternoon, we didn't wait very long either in the line or for our food to make it to the table. I can't say I'll go out of my way to eat here [in person], just because when I dine out I prefer a more traditional 'dining out' experience, but I certainly recommend it if you're in the area, and it will be on the list the next time I'm around and want to just chill with a burger and a beer with a friend or two. Pricing didn't upset me much - $75 for three people, which included two sides, a beer, a fountain drink, and a shake, in addition to our main orders. So, not bad for 2026. Big ups for the free pickle slices, too. :)

Omega Burgers is a great local burger joint with a lot to offer. From breakfast to dinner and in…read morebetween, you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. They offer breakfast, dinner specials, Mexican, and American comfort food. On my recent visits, I've ordered the burgers and the grilled chicken breast sandwich. Love the thick-cut fries and onion rings. Everything I've tried has been enjoyable and filling. The staff has been kind, and they prepare orders promptly and with care. The restaurant has spacious indoor dining, mostly booths. They also offer drive-thru ordering. The drive-thru entrance is easiest when entering from the Pioneer Blvd side. The order-and-pickup window is on the passenger side. A little awkward if you're a solo driver. Decent number of parking spots, too. They've been around for years (since 2010, after changing from Duke's), and prices (as with most places) have increased, but they're still competitive with similar establishments. The food and service have been consistently good. I can't wait til my next meal here!

There aren't any bells or whistles but every time I have a meal here I've been satisfied, breakfast lunch or dinner. To be fair I haven't been too adventurous with the menu and tend to order things like burgers, chili cheese friends and breakfast. The fries are GENEROUSSSSS and could easily be shared between 2-3 people. One of my favorite burgers there is the bacon cheeseburger, bacon is always nice and crispy and lettuce always nice and fresh. The burger patty is also perfectly cooked. I love the bacon breakfast plate, pro tip is to get scrambled eggs and add bell peppers onions and cheese. The French toast is also PERFECTION. You literally do not need to add syrup. The butter and cinnamon is always in perfect ratio. Another can't miss is the vanilla ice cream. Apparently they make it in house? I love it! Would probably taste amazing in a root beer float. There's also a lady who works the window that is also super nice and friendly. Ps don't forget to ask for the chilis and salsa!

Black Market Burger is a street food vendor specializing in smash burgers and it can currently be…read morefound on Thursdays through Sundays from the afternoon through evening at the Sams Club Gas Station by Long Beach Towne Center. According to their website, they also make appearances at Breweries and Food events, so you may see them out and about. It popped up on my radar through yelp and I wanted to check it out as a local. I had their "black market burger", which was a double smash burger on a grill top with grilled onions and on a potato bun. They mentioned that their fries are cooked in duck fat, which typically gives a savory flavor to fries that you don't get in seed oils. They also mentioned their "new school american cheese" is new school because it's real cheese, but it tastes and melts like the American cheese. They were friendly and they brought it to my car as soon as my order was ready. I think that this burger would be nice with a beer at a brewery and, if you check out their website, then you could see when/where that happens. As it stands, I enjoyed their namesake burger and fries; however, I'd probably want to go with one of their more dressed up burgers or chili fries and I'd BYOB if I were to come back to see them at LB Towne Center, which has no less than a half dozen options for burgers. I definitely respect the grind. If you do come to check it out, check their hours before you head over to the gas station or check their website to go to their appearances at local breweries (which is probably how I'd rather have it). I hope they consider going to busier food events where their offerings can be paired with other food experiences. Soft drink options would also be nice. Again - I respect the grind and think that if you want to try a double smash burger on a potato bun, then you should consider giving it a shot.

I still can't believe how amazingly delicious their food is & I'm writing this review the next…read moreday.(Yes, I'm still thinking about it.) They were at Long Beach FC's game at Cabrillo Jaguars Stadium & were so thoughtful to have planned to stay open well after the game ended so that the players & staff would be able to enjoy a burger too. The owner was likable and very patient. He reassured me that I wasn't in a rush to order. (My boyfriend is one of the founders of the team so when I sent him a photo of the menu, I realized he won't reply til he has time & the game had just ended and he has to help take down everything.) We ordered the black market burger, the shady Swiss, and the bootlegger fries. Everything was phenomenal! I actually ordered my Swiss burger mainly for my boyfriend to try, because he likes mushrooms and I do not, but to my surprise I scarfed down the burger within minutes! That potato bun, the garlic aioli, the patty itself-oh my goodness-heaven. The burger was packed plenty with mushrooms & I enjoyed it all. I ordered the fries because I saw that they were thick cut and after hearing they were cooked in duck fat made me intrigued to see what the difference in taste would be & I was beyond impressed. They were just cooked to perfection with the perfect ratio from crispy crunchy goodness to the soft potato filling. My initial plan on the fries was to share half with my boyfriend (he only ordered the burger anyway), but my lack of discipline left him with just 1/4 of the fries He finally was able to eat 30 minutes after I received the food and his immediate reaction to biting into the burger was that it was really good! When he tried the fries he was impressed that they were still crispy and enjoyed the fries as much as I did. I wish they were coming back to next week's game, but I will definitely be there for every game they're popping up at (and to support my bf's team ofc ) .

My husband and I have been wanting to try the Ube sliders for a while, and we decided to get that. We also go the Panda Style fries with spam. When we got our food, everything looked so delicious. We've had the Panda Style Fries before. And it never disappoints. The fries have great taste from the seasoning to the sauce. And the spam brings out that saltiness the fries need. I love the grilled onions on top. We usually eat it from the top to the bottom, so we usually don't get much sauce or toppings when we get to the bottom. I think it's meant to be mixed, but we don't want it to get mushy. The be sliders were good. The patty, sauce, and grilled onions were good. The Ube bread didn't have much Ube taste to us (imo). And I felt like I was getting more bread than the actually patty and what was inside the burger. I felt like I could have used more sauce to soften up the dry texture I get from the bed. But overall it was good. This place is located inside the Steelcraft so it has a nice, chill ambiance. The place can get busy, especially when they are showing games. But a nice place to hang out and chill over some food and drinks.

The service is pretty quick, the food comes out fresh, and it's just an easy spot to pull up to when you're craving a good burger. They've also got some nice outdoor seating, which is perfect when you just want to sit outside, eat a burger and fries, and chill. And if you go, I already know what I'm recommending: get the Orange Bang and MAKE SURE you get the seasoning on the fries. Trust me, those seasoned fries with an Orange Bang just hit different. Nothing overly fancy--just a good, old-school burger spot that's been doing its thing for years. For me, there's some nostalgia behind it too. I've been coming here since I was a kid, and I'll keep coming back.

We came all the way from Santa Clarita and we're not disappointed. Past all the namebrand places by the aquarium and came here and we're not disappointed. I had the work burger, which has fried portobello mushrooms. Others in our group had grilled cheese and poutine burger, and Italian burger and the hotdog and the breakfast burritos. No one was disappointed actually, we were surprisingly pleased with our selections. Sleeper items are the fried cheese curds by themselves. Make sure you get these. Also the onion rings are batter dipped. And beyond delicious! Only bummer is the drinks are cans, so if you need more than one drink, be prepared to pay for each can. The food was super delicious!!

We stopped by here because it was late and they were still open. Another reason I wanted to try it…read morewas because they served poutine, and I'm always on the lookout for places that offer it. It was really loud during our visit. I'm not sure if it's always that lively on Friday nights, but it was the weekend of Warped Tour, so there was a lot of music and energy. If you're looking for a quieter meal, this may not be the best night to visit. The food itself was good, but the wait was much longer than expected. We waited almost 40 minutes for our order. Unfortunately, my burger was also made incorrectly. I ordered the Bacon Bleu Burger but was served a different burger instead. Not quite sure what it was, but it had mushrooms and American cheese. Since we had already waited so long, I decided to just eat it rather than send it back. The burgers were flavorful, but they were smaller than I expected for the price, and they don't come with fries. To round out my meal, I ordered the poutine fries. They were decent. The fries were nice and crispy, which I appreciated. My husband ordered the Burger Don Chendo, and that ended up being the standout of the night. I usually don't like spicy food, but this burger had just the right amount of heat without being overwhelming. Overall, the food was enjoyable, but between the long wait, the incorrect order, and the portion size for the price, the experience was a bit hit-or-miss. I'd be willing to give them another try, especially for the Don Chendo burger, but I'm hoping for a smoother experience next time.

I started with an Old Fashioned drink, which was solid - strong enough to pack a little punch but still taste good. We ordered a few appetizers - the Korean Beef Frachos were especially good and the Brussel sprouts were very solid. With so many appetizers, I went with a Caesar salad and two soft tacos (shrimp and fish). The Caesar salad was good and healthy sized, so I could share with others. It was a typical, but good, Caesar which didn't have anything fancy about it (no anchovies, egg yolk, etc), but nothing was really lacking either. Both soft/street tacos were good, respectable in size and very tasty. Other people in our party got burgers, goat cheese salad, chicken sandwiches, and everyone seemed very happy with their meals. Service was friendly and casual. Our server was the one who really recommenced the Frachos, which was a great call. I've been to Eurekas before and always been satisfied. I'd probably rate the typical location a 4-star experience, but this one seemed extra friendly and the food I enjoyed more than I expected, so a solid 5 star experience in my book.

My only tip is try to eat the sandos asap. Otherwise the bread might get too soft. I really wanted the strawberry sandos for dessert, but they were out of stock that day. Highly recommend trying the sandos! Pricing: They have daily deals at an extremely affordable price. Honestly everything on their menu is worth its price.
