    Taquitos plate
    Joyce A.

    I just needs a quick meal and decided on the drive through: I got three items : Orange Bang easy ice medium - sweetened and creamy like I remembered- 8/10 Taquitos plate - with a side of refried beens plus Mexican rice and chopped lettuce, tomatoes topped with four cream and a side of guacamole cream sauce - 6/10 because the taquitos stayed crunchy! Mystery meat might have been shredded beef but not great taste. The asada burrito was just sad : I got the carne asada with rice and beans : 4/10 - it was sizable but the meat was so dry and chewy that I had to give up on eating it at all. Takeout was under 10 minutes but no one was in the lot or behind me. I probably should try coming earlier rather than for dinner time because the meat sure seemed like it might have been sitting in a warmer or heat lamp all day. I might give them another try sometime.

    Jr burger but I told them I just wanted chili and cheese

    All of the time I asked for a junior burger I tell them just to add chili and cheese only I keep getting a burger with lettuce, tomato, onion, and that secret sauce. I don't like it as much that way they only got it right one time out of like the 5 times I have gone there

    Bacon hamburger combo
    Kristen A.

    Late night munchie trip led us here. We arrived right before they closed the deive thru 945pm Ordered 2 - bacon hamburger combos Hamburgers were good, fry portion is huge. Fries were super over salted but I would go back. (We just shook them out in a strainer lol ) If you're looking for a quick 10$ combo try flames. We have also tried their breakfast burritos and they were good.

    No longer a full chicken and rice. Only half and half

    This place has fallen off. A worker has gotten mad because I sent back two orders of fries cause they were burnt twice. For years they've done their full teriyaki plates with salad in the side and with no notice or letting any one know they now make it only half with half salad in the same tray Wait times have increased

    chicken nachos
    Victoria k.

    I love flames! My favorite dishes have to be the chicken nachos and fries. They always give you a massive bag of fries and they're so fresh.

    Good food and fast service. The best noon rings are fresh and not overcooked. Patty melt and fries were also very good

    Chili cheese and bacon cheeseburger cant go wrong with this combo.

    I was craving something crunchy and unhealthy and decided on chili cheese fries. The fries were…read morestill crunchy, despite it being in a to go box for about 20 minutes on the way home. Large Chili cheese fries costs $12.14 at the time of this writing. Chili and cheese make a perfect combo. Not too salty either. You can see some greasy layer on top, so dont expect anything healthy. The cheese hits different and isnt generic Kraft cheese you can get at the store in case you were wondering, "we have cheese at home." It's nothing like what you can buy at the grocery store. It is worth the extra dollar. Service was quick. Friendly cashier. Practically empty restaurant inside since most people use the drive thru or order to go. I would buy again. Their fries are peak.

    Omega Burgers is one of those places that just hits every time. The food is so good, but what…read morereally makes it stand out for me is the nostalgia. It reminds me of my childhood in the best way. There's just something about a classic burger with that Thousand Island spread that you don't find everywhere anymore. My go-to order is the bacon cheeseburger with chili cheese fries, and it never disappoints. The flavors are exactly what you want, simple, satisfying, and consistently good. I always get a side of ranch too, which just takes everything up a notch. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. If I'm taking it to go, I like to get the lettuce and tomato on the side so the burger doesn't get soggy, I definitely recommend doing that. Price-wise, it is a little on the higher side for a burger and fries combo, but honestly, the quality and taste make it worth it. It's one of those spots you go to when you want something you know is going to be good every time.

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 ) .

We ordered two colossal burgers, regular fries, and chili cheese fries. My burger did not come with cheese as I had asked, so I went up and grabbed a slice and added it myself. Not a huge deal, but it did take away from the experience a bit. The pastrami was great, the burger had a lot of flavor, and their ranch definitely passed the test. The biggest issue here is the parking. The lot is very small, and once a rush hits, you are stuck. We sat there for about 30 minutes trying to get out, and my boyfriend ended up going through the drive-thru line just to exit. It was pretty frustrating. That is really my only gripe, though. I am sure we will be back.

The evening started off strong, as we stopped by during Hoppy Hour (around 9ish). There wasn't a wait, and it wasn't too busy, so we were seated right away. The front staff was nice and polite. She gave us the option of either a tall round table or a shorter rectangular table. We of course, opted for the slightly shorter (height-wise) rectangular table. Once we were seated, we were given the menu, and the waitress told us that we would be right with us. She stopped by to ask about drinks, and we opted for water. She dropped off water and came back with perfect timing because by then we were ready to order. I also love the simplicity of the menu. There really aren't too many options where you feel overwhelmed, but there are still enough choices to pick from. Shout out to the pastrami quesadilla, I didn't realize it had been swapped for a new menu item until I asked about it this time around, but I'll be waiting for its comeback! We ordered a few items: the mac and cheese balls, the Wagyu bone marrow burger with truffle fries, and a double smash burger with ribbed finger potatoes. We had to get the mac and cheese balls since it was Hoppy Hour! I also didn't realize that on Wednesdays, the double smash burgers are half off. I'll definitely remember that for next time. After we ordered, the food came out quicker than I expected. It was a nice surprise. I think the first item came out about 10 minutes after our initial order. The mac and cheese balls came out hot, which was great. The breading made them super crispy and gave a nice crunch that balanced really well with the softer, chewier mac and cheese inside. I was glad the inside wasn't too runny since that would have made it like lava! I didn't see a cheese pull this time, but next time I'll try again to see if I can catch one. It was a great start to the meal. The burgers came out shortly after we finished the mac and cheese balls. I totally forgot that the truffle fries came with sauce. I should have asked for the sauce on the side, but it wasn't a problem that it was added on top of the fries. It just made them get soggy a bit faster, but that's no problem; it just means I've got to work faster! The burger was good and came out super juicy. I asked for it medium, and it looked about medium, so no complaints here! I never realized before, but the bread was so fluffy... it was a super pillowy bun with a nice bounce to it. It definitely helped balance out the meatiness of the patty. The hint of tomato gave it a nice, refreshing bite and really helped cut through the richness of the meat. The onions also added a nice sweetness to the burger, which was appreciated. I also snuck a bite of the ribbed potatoes, and they were good as well. They were a bit crispy on the outside and nice and soft on the inside, with just a touch of saltiness. I also stole a pickle from the double smash and realized I probably should have asked for pickles on my burger, but I'll remember that for my next visit!

    3 stars for the food, but only 1 star for the service…read more I came on a Wednesday evening, and there were only a handful of people inside and out on the patio. You'd think with it being so slow, the service would have been attentive... but it wasn't. Our waitress only came to our table to take our order and bring the check. The only other time we saw her was after we flagged down another staff member because our fries were lukewarm. Unfortunately, the replacement fries were also lukewarm, so I'm thinking fries just aren't their specialty. I ordered the Al Pastor fish tacos. They were good, but nothing really stood out or made me want to order them again. I'm willing to give Eureka! another try because everyone has an off day. Hopefully the service is better next time, and I'll update my review if it is.

I don't care how many customers you are trying to get in and get out of the establishment. Please don't chat the edges of the burger because you are trying to do to many things at once.

Read the room burning the edges of the burger surely alters the taste of what might have been a great burger story. We were very disappointed to say that the fries trumped the overcooked cheeseburger. I thought for the price of the double cheeseburger that there would be a valiant effort to please the clients tastebuds but that never quite materialized.. The presentation is the trick because the service and the food fell short of lackluster. And before you serve anything Take pride in your own QUALITY CONTROL Look at the burger Then ask yourself would you eat it and if it doesn't passed that litmus test THROW IT. OUT AND START OVER !!!!! It's as simple as that . Have some self awareness.
