Let's start out by saying that they have a wine list on the wall saying "Wine by the Glass". It's basically a half glass and they charge $15 for a glass of Chardonnay--not even a full glass. Three sips and you're done!!!!!!! Maybe they should say "Half glasses of wine". That's what you call false advertising....Talk about a ripoff! and they don't serve combos; fries are separate. Maybe they'd have more business if they had a better working model for their food and their employees were nothing special. Basically meh all around. read more

Burger came out raw =(. Ive been here before and it can get really busy at this location. Usually good food, but served a raw burger, line was 15+ people deep, I didn't have time to address it up front and wait for another burger. Seemed like the burger was barely on the grill =/. read more

Burgers! Ahi burger! Salads, fish taco's, milkshakes and cones. What in the F is not to like? Walnut Creek location is a different experience than SF or Napa but the food is consistently the same; fresh and delicious! read more

This place is very crowded. I ordered ahead of time and the food was ready on time. However, the onion rings and fries were soggy. When I've had it in Napa. They were so crunchy and yummy. The burger was also underwhelming, the meat patty had weird pieces of gristle, I believe. I don't recommend this location. read more

After coming here the first time close to closing time for dinner, I knew I want to come back during the day. This review covers both visits. PARKING: It's nice they have a shared lot to park for free, but it definitely gets filled during the day. At night you can park anywhere and on the streets for free. During the daytime you can also park over by the shopping mall for free the first 3 hours. TIP: You order first before sitting down. So if there is a long line, order online! It's like skipping the line to order and that takes you straight to waiting to pick up your order. Here's what I've had: GARLIC FRIES - $4.99 Tossed in garlic butter and parsley. Only because it's just $0.50 more than regular fries. But I realized I would have preferred just regular fries cuz these just tastes like extra greasy fries. And when it's extra damp, the fries has a different texture almost as though it's stale. No go for me, but I still ate them cuz it's in front of me. ONION RINGS - $4.99 Thick and beer battered. Lightly salted. Oh yeah these were pretty good, and done how I like it! When you take a bite you're not pulling the entire ring inside out. It has a nice balance of sweetness from the onion and I love the light and crispy batter. CHILI - $5.99 House-made beef & bean chili made with craft beer. Topped with cheddar cheese & green onions. To my surprise I was not at all impressed with the chili. Not sure what more I was expected, but it was just okay. I'm still glad I tried it, and know not to bother next time. So many other items to try! CHEESEBURGER - $10.99 American cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, pickles & secret sauce on a toasted egg bun. Gotta have the simple regular burger (with cheese) if I'm trying their burgers for the first time. And oh yea, it's a solid one. I love the soft buns and juicy patty. Yummy! CALIFORNIA BURGER - $16.99 Fried egg, Cowgirl Creamery's Wagon Wheel cheese, Zoe's bacon, arugula, balsamic onions & mayo on a toasted sesame brioche bun. Didn't realize this was on a sesame bun, which I'm not a fan of. I wouldn't have not known it was a brioche bun either. It was still a very good burger though! CITRUS & AVOCADO CHOP SALAD - $14.99 Romaine & red leaf lettuce tossed with asado spice-rubbed chicken, cilantro-pumpkin seed dressing, oranges, tomatoes, black beans, pickled red onions & quinoa, topped with avocado, toasted pumpkin seeds & Cotija cheese. Wow, this sure hits the spot! I'm so glad I got this salad! It was so good, with all the variety of ingredients! You have the sweet citrus fruits, the richness from the avocado, dressing and cheese, and all the seeds and everything else. This place is great for large groups, and they have lots of seating options: You have inside, outside along the deck, and their side patio. I'm definitely coming back! read more

Came here for an office lunch & honestly cannot wait to come back. The staff is very nice & I feel they sensed it was my first time there... so the man taking my order did a good job at making me feel welcome & also offering additional items that I wouldn't know was an option as a first timer. There's a lot of seating indoor & out, which is great! Food was 10/10, I just wish I couldn't tried a lot more haha. There were so many options that sounded really good & each month they have new/seasonal items. Their teriyaki chicken sandwich was so good. I was afraid the chicken would be dry... but it was not, at all. I tried their fried green tomatoes (September seasonal item) the flavor was good but I'm used to my fried tomato being thinly sliced, so I wasn't used to the tomato being "overpowering." Can't wait to go back! read more

Fantastic, ultra kid-friendly burger restaurant located in downtown Walnut Creek. Incredibly clean, good energy, very safe for kids on the spectrum. The food is 5-star delicious, the service is fast, and the tables are plentiful. We ordered orange floats, tacos, fries, and chicken tenders. Dad ordered the kimchi burger. All of the food was good, but the kimchi burger gave me an honest to god "wow" moment on first taste. So good. Absolutely worth a special trip if you have kiddos who get the wiggles during meals, but you still want to eat some gourmet food and sit for a spell. (I would like to give a special shout-out to the young lady bussing tables yesterday. She was an absolute force of nature, keeping that place spotless, and 100 percent deserves a raise. Well done!) A+ all around. We are definitely coming back. read more

Came into downtown Walnut Creek for a late lunch and happened upon Gott's Roadside. There was no wait and we ordered at the counter. Very easy to place order and found seating outside. It was a little cold so I appreciated the heaters! Food came out in ample time. I ordered the cheeseburger and my husband ordered the bacon cheeseburger and we shared fries. Everything was very tasty! The burger bun held up nicely too, which is a huge plus!! I'd definitely eat here again when in town. Cute little spot! read more

We've been coming to Gott's in Walnut Creek for our weekly date night for a while now, but our most recent visit was easily the best one yet thanks to AJ. He first caught our attention when he saw me wiping down an outdoor table; he immediately jumped in to take over for me, which was so thoughtful. Beyond the great service, his knowledge of the menu is incredible. My husband asked for recommendations, and AJ introduced us to several items we didn't even realize were available, despite being regulars! It is a total breath of fresh air to see such a personable, hardworking young man in the food industry. He truly took our experience to the next level. read more

I finally decided to try this spot after passing by often. There's a ton of burger joints in Walnut Creek, but I was actually very impressed and satisfied with Gott's and their menu that also offers a plethora of alcoholic beverages. I ordered the California Burger and shared garlic fries and sweet potato fries with my family. The burger could definitely be bigger but the toppings were the perfect combination with a fried egg. It wasn't messy to eat at all compared to other spots. The ranch was mind blowing (if you like ranch, you'll understand). The staff were nice and the prices were average. I'll definitely return to try more items from the menu. read more

This place is always crowded and finding parking is a challenge, but the food is worth it. The staff is helpful and they work hard to keep things neat (despite the customers). I had the green Chile burger as a lettuce wrap - I asked for well-done, because their standard is medium -well. My son had the Chicken Kale Cesar (huge) and we shared the fried Brussels sprouts and some sweet potato fries. Everything was well- made and delicious! Being there on a Saturday is somewhat trying - lots of families and little kids, so it can be noisy and chaotic. Again, though, the food is worth it! read more

Expensive, Tasty Burgers [Walnut Creek CA] We came here on a Sunday afternoon right around lunch time at 11:45a. I did not do the ordering, my kids did while the rest of us went outside and sat in one of the many picnic benches under large umbrellas. The weather was nice, not too hot, even felt a slight breeze at times. I was excited to try this place because I have not made it to their Napa or their SF locations... and here we were in the East Bay in Walnut Creek. The outdoor dining was pet friendly. We had our dog with us. The little food buzzer alerted us at about noon and one of us went inside to pick up our food. I ordered the Bacon Cheeseburger. Others in our party got Kimchi Burger, Ahi Poke Crispy Tacos, California Burger, and Chili Cheese Fries. Daughter didn't like the beans on that Chili Cheese Fries. My Bacon Cheeseburger was delicious, even without the pickles and onions, which I opted not to include, it was still huge and was filling. The prices are on the high side... $14 for my Bacon Cheeseburger, no fries included. Drinks were separate. Good burger though. Review #3436 read more

I have to say I really liked this restaurant. But the last two visits have been so disappointing. A hamburger all mushed is a bun, and today, a California sandwich that tasted like nothing. I think I will skip this place for a while since Walnut Creek has so many places to eat! read more

Fast food that you don't cringe over. Sure it's not the healthiest but it's a step in the right direction. We love the burgers and chicken sandwich. We also really enjoy the swirled soft serve. read more

Big, spacious location that is clean with friendly service. The Dungeness crab special was OUTSTANDING. They even offered to cut it in half for us when they heard we were sharing. Chili cheese fries were fine but next time might opt for the garlic fries instead - the cheese kinda stuck together and didn't melt onto the fries. read more

I've wanted to try the original location in Napa for a while but I never venture that way so when I saw they had a Walnut Creek location I was all in. My visit was yesterday (Saturday) and the line was out the door! I parked and ordered online but the downside is they don't allow any substitution other than removing items. I ordered the Bacon (I'll get back to that) Double Cheeseburger with Onion Rings and my daughter ordered the Wisconsin Burger and Chili Cheese Fries. The bacon double cheeseburger was too big, I should've ordered the single because those patties are really thick. They forgot my bacon and that's a 2.00 difference than the regular double cheeseburger. Seems like this location needs to pay attention to orders because I've seen too many reviews with items missing from the burgers that make a price difference. I want my money back for what I didn't get. The onion rings were delicious and they remained crispy for quite a while. My daughter liked her food with one complaint - the BBQ sauce on her burger tasted like Ketchup so we don't know if this was a mistake or if the BBQ taste like Ketchup, so next time she'll just remove it. read more

Two words: garlic fries. If you come to Gott's, you can't skip the garlic fries! They are bursting with garlic flavor, perfectly moist inside yet a satisfying crunch on the outside. I also tried the bacon cheeseburger, which was a solid choice. The soft serve is also a star to finish off the meal. This location was super packed on the weekends, with families and kids running around so it was kind of hard to find a table. read more

First time here because hubby wanted to try it... went to restroom to do my biz and wash up prior to eating... 2 stalls were out of TP around 11:45 am today. I told the front counter about the situation so they can fix. We sat inside and there were a ton of flies inside!!! Annoying we had to keep shooing them away. Service was fine, price is very high and food didn't have much flavor. After $40+ for 1 iced tea, onion rings, 3 chicken strips and a bacon cheeseburger....we had to run to the bathroom. Not sure what is in their grease... but we are both cleaned out. My cheeseburger had processed cheese on it... the cheese never melted!!! Meat seemed very low grade too...Won't be back...unless I need a system cleanse. read more

First time dining inside and ordering for here. My mom had brought back food from here a really long time ago. I had their ahi tacos (3 pieces). This time I had their Vietnamese salad with fried chicken. OMG it was so good! I was hesitant at first on what to order because I had gone to the gym earlier, lol. But I do not regret the decision to eat fried chicken! The flavors of the salad were really nice. I would definitely order this again. My aunt ordered the ahi tacos and now I remember how they looked and yes, they looked good. I would also order that and a side of sweet potato fries, haha. Though I hear they're usually known for their burgers - which people in my group did order and everyone was happy with their meals. The inside is bright, big, lots of seating inside and out, however if you drop in during the height of their busy hours, it may be difficult to find a table - especially if your group is big. There are a lot of families who come here to eat - people of all ages! They should have had more than one at the cash register taking orders, but other than that... the menu is printed large on the wall when you walk in and you pretty much order, get your drinks up front, and you pick up your food on the other side of the room when it is ready at the counter. read more

Absolutely solid burger place that is very family and pet friendly. I always take my mom here whenever I visit because it is her favorite weekend lunch spot. The line is often long during this time but it goes by pretty quickly. There's a nice outdoor seating area with clean benches and fake grass. It's perfect for when I want to bring my dog out and especially relaxing on a sunny day. Definitely one of the main highlights of this place. As for the food, the burgers are great! Super juicy and extremely filling. It looks small at first but by the end I'm struggling to breathe. Both the garlic fries and sweet potato fries are delicious, especially with their special ranch and hot sauce. I don't know what they put in the ranch here but it's absolutely delicious! As for the chicken sandwiches, skip them. I tried both the Chicken Schnitzel and Crispy Teriyaki Chicken. They were ok but far below other chicken sandwiches like from Chick fil a or Popeyes. Flavoring and texture were both meh. read more

Meh at best. Ordered the Gruyere and Onion Burger. No onions were included I guess? Couldn't find any anyway. More bun than burger patty (it was well-seasoned), but disappointing considering the price tag. Sweet potato fries came out cold so definitely not from the fryer but they tasted nice. Would I come back? Maybe to try a different menu item but I've had better meals from any other burger place out there. Place is a cool vibe but vibes don't make a great burger. read more

Place is great, always full of business especially in the summer. The place has outdoor seating and heaters as needed, I love the garage style doors that open in the summer! The food is always tasty, ahi poke tacos is one of my favorite items off the menu even tho it is a burger place. The last burger I had was tasty but the bun was on a dry side which was a bummer. I like the seasonal specials and will be back to a burger again! read more

Came here for lunch with cousins and didn't disappoint. I enjoyed the ahi burger and love that they have lots of choices for everyone even the kids. Will have to come back to try the rest. read more

Not as good as it used to be :( I've always loved Gotts. Haven't had it in awhile and needed dinner before going back home so we stopped here. The first thing that the cashier tells me once I walk in the door is "can you please close the door" okayyy... not even a "hi, welcome to Gott's?" Kind of rude. We ordered a cheeseburger, ahi sandwich, onion rings, and garlic fries. I would say that I enjoyed the sides better than the burgers. I noticed that theyre using a potato bun instead of a regular bun, which I really did not like. With the potato bun you're getting a whole lot of bread. The only time I enjoy potato bread is if i'm eating a chicken sandwich, which I wasn't, So much so that i didn't even eat all the bread on my burger. They also say that the burger is cooked medium well so it's a little pink on the inside, but it was definitely more on the medium side and wayy too pink. I'm just glad that i didn't get sick with food poisoning. I probably won't come back to eat at a Gott's for awhile (until I forget about the experience I had here lol) read more

One of my favorite places to eat whenever I'm in downtown Walnut Creek. They are pretty consistent with the food quality. Thai Chicken Salad: my go-to! The chicken is so crispy and the greens are so fresh. The dressing isn't too heavy either. 9.5/10 Sweet Potato Fries: Large portion and the dressing from the Thai Chicken Salad goes well with it. 9/10 Chicken Schnitzel Sandwich (Protein Style): My boyfriend ordered this and he said they were lacking on the chicken. If we're ordering a chicken schnitzel, we're hoping to at least get a nicely sized cut of chicken. 6/10 Service is quick and attentive. It's the busiest during weekends of course, but if there's a line, it goes by quick! read more

Solid spot to grab a burger and salad. It's located in the shopping area of Walnut Creek, great downtown area. I love how there were ample outdoor seating for a nice Saturday that's also dog friendly! Our little fur baby was able to join us during the lunch. We got the jalapeno burger, Vietnamese salad, an a pint of Pliny (yes they have pliny!). Total came out to a little less than $50. Standard pricing across the bay area unfortunately. We got our food in 10 minutes around 430pm on a Saturday. Lines started building up by the time we left though! The burger had really good quality beef, but other than that, the burger tasted pretty standard. The Vietnamese salad came with pieces of fried chicken meat on top, I loved it! Even though it's not truly authentic Vietnamese flavors, I still loved the salad. Flavorful, light, and the fried chicken strips on top were wonderful. Wish I can eat this salad everyday! Overall, it's a good option if you want something quick and delicious. There's something for everybody from burgers to salads to tacos to alcoholic drinks. Would totally come back here if we're in the area! read more

We were craving a burger while in the area, so we finally decided to try Gott's. Our expectations were let down, so I'd recommend to go somewhere else for burgers. The burgers are not worth their costs in my opinion. At around $13 a burger, the portions are small and it doesn't come with any sides like other places. We tried the Wisconsin burger and the Texas Avocado burger, both underwhelming. We also ordered a side of onion rings, which we enjoyed the most. I also docked another star because every table was dirty, and we even got sauce on our clothes from the table! It wasn't busy and there were a lot of staff, so please be more attentive and wipe the tables often. read more

Not too happy with my Cobb salad. I asked for cheddar instead of blue cheese which I have done in many restaurants and I have never been charged for this change except at Gott's. I wasn't asking for extra cheese I asked for a different cheese. The cashier didn't tell me there would be a charge to boot. The lemon dressing that it came with didn't go and wasn't good. The bacon were teeny tiny bits and the avocado was barely there. Overall not happy and won't be back. read more

Their vietnamese chicken salad was highly recommended from this place so I decided have it for lunch. I did order my salad to go and was pleasantly surprised by the size and presentation. Huge piece of juicy well battered chicken with a lot of greens and toppings. The red chili peppers add the perfect amount of spicy without it being too overwhelming. The dressing has a light peanut + ginger like taste and compliments the salad very well. I will definitely be back to try more items but I might just reorder the salad...I mean it was pretty amazing! read more

Food was okay, but the service was slow and inattentive. The tables and floors were also dirty, which made the experience less enjoyable.

Came in for a takeout order of chicken tenders and fries. Ordered separately with my girlfriend who got her order within 20 minutes. I had the exact same order with the addition of French fries. 40 minutes goes by and I ask the staff if my order is almost ready, come to find out they can't find my order. Staff tells me we'll have your order shortly, an hour later my number is called. It's unfortunate that a business this established is consistently having these issues during dinner hours. read more

Had an awesome meal at Gott's Roadside! I went with the garlic fries and a cookies & cream shake, both were insanely good. Fries were golden and packed with flavor, and the shake was thick, creamy, and exactly what I needed. My friend had the grilled chicken salad along with a peanut butter chocolate shake, and they couldn't stop raving about it. Everything tasted fresh, savory, and just downright satisfying. Definitely one of those places you crave again after the first bite. read more
