I used to come when this place was in placentia and it was my favorite. Then it changed hands and the quality changed But NO LONGER ITS BACK BABY, AND IN A GREAT WAY please please come get some good halal food! They're open late and the quality is just like it was 15 years ago. It is such a dream to be back! read more

Nothing wrong with this place. Friendly, open late, food is pretty food. It is actually healthier than the usual burger place. Or maybe it was my burger? Vegetarian review: - sourdough burger with an Impossible patty. A lot less greasy and mayo-ish than I thought, but I suppose it saved me a bunch of calories. - fries: pretty good. Above average, I'd say. Parking was a breeze. read more

Kind of hidden away in the corner of the shopping center, but definitely worth finding. The food and service were both great. I tried the Straw Onion Burger with a double patty -- recommended by the person at the register -- and it did not disappoint. The burger was a great size, packed with flavor, and super filling. On top of that, the combo was priced really well. Definitely a spot I'll be coming back to! read more

This is one of those hole in the wall places where you wouldn't think of when you drive by, but please believe me, you'll want to stop! Plenty of parking in the shopping center! When you walk in, it's definitely one of those places where you see it, and you kinda just know, it's going to be tasty! The only thing is it is a bit warm inside. The service was very friendly and checked to see if we enjoyed our burgers! One thing to note is that this place is Halal, so like kosher, it's going to be more of the cleaner meats on the menu. And they have a lot of options for burgers, sandwiches, salads, etc. Spicy Burger: This burger was delicious, I'm typically not a huge fan of jalapeños on burgers, but this one is an exception. It had that little kick of spices from both the jalapeños as well as the chipotle mayo. Old Fashion Burger: It's your classic burger, the thousand island dressing, American Cheese, etc. With both these burgers, the meat tasted super clean, Halal meat has unlocked a new level of burger for me! Mozzarella Sicks: Two Words....Cheese....Pull! It was a perfectly seasoned mozzarella stick, but it has the cheese pull!!! Onion Rings: Those were perfectly crispy, and it never pulled apart onion from breading! French Fries: They're your comforting crispy French Fries! Overall this is now one of my favorite places, for the same price as you would get for a burger from any random fast food joint, I'd recommend this instead! read more

If you are looking for great old fashioned burgers and burgers that have a twist, actually just something thats so flavorful that I promise you'll be back two days in a row. Awesome service and food. There's more than enough seats for everyone! It's such an awesome place to try out. read more

We had dinner here and there is plenty of parking in the shopping center that the restaurant is a part of. The restaurant itself is roomy and a little warm, temperature wise, on the inside. This is a Lebanese burger joint so everything is Halal. The menu is straightforward and we got two burgers and a few sides. The first burger was the old-fashioned cheeseburger. Super simple ingredients with cheese, a couple of patties, lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, red onion and sauce. The patties were incredibly fresh tasting and a great reason to come back again. The second burger was the spicy burger with a couple of patties, lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, red onion, Chipotle mayo and slice jalapeños. Just the right amount of heat for me and absolutely delicious. For sides we got mozzarella sticks, French fries and onion rings. All the sides were made fresh. The mozzarella sticks had some of the best cheese pull ever. The fries are perfectly cooked with just the right amount of salt. The onion rings were crispy on the outside and sweet onions on the inside. Fantastic burgers and sides make this a great place to visit again and again. read more

One of the BEST BURGERS in OC. Try the Lebanese burger and make it a combo! We were welcomed by Sam, he took great care of us with great service. Food is 5 stars! read more

I just elevated my tastebuds burger game after this delicious lip smacking experience. This is a Halal friendly spot that has a tasty gem I must tell you about. I ordered the Lebanese burger that came with your basic sesame bun, cheese and beef patty. What made this burger super exciting to my tastebuds was the coleslaw. I'm not sure exactly what it was but it leveled up the burger and with the added fries mashed up inside! Oh Man! I was like Dayuuum! This is like a Ratatouille moment for me with all the elements working together after the first bite. The last time I had a first time winner was my beloved Fatburger and that's saying a lot. The service was great and a big shoutout to Mo! Plenty of seating inside and patio seating also on the side of the joint plus plenty of parking too. And that's my take on this joint, Peace out. read more

Yummm, a very small and unassuming establishment . I think it might be Muslim run based on some decor and the staff and that they close for Ramadan which I think is so great! The place was empty when we walked in but the grill was going with a ton of burgers. They had three little iPads chiming away so it's obvious that this place does mostly to-go orders even though they offer plenty of seating. The woman working was super nice. My friend and I each got a sandwich combo and then we got an extra burger to film...phone eats first, right? I wanted the falafel sandwich and was super bummed that they were currently out, but next time! I was very happy with the onion rings. I will admit the patties were a little dry but I thought they tasted good and honestly the food overall is a little sauce heavy so it all evens out in your mouth. The winning thing for me here were the drink options! My goodness, I've never had so many sugar free soda and juice options IN MY LIFE. I love a beverage and they have the crushed ice....it was the best! I think if I lived in the area, I would come around here for a quick and easy dinner. The prices were super reasonable. But it's not a destination type place. read more

Omg. This place has taken a turn for the worse. I have now been here 3 times in the last 8 years and the service has gradually gotten worse. Considering it was already pretty bad, this is sad. I understand they had a note saying they will open the dine-in at 5:50pm for Ramadan, but when the fast opens at 5:53pm, it might make sense to open maybe 10 minutes earlier. The tables still had chairs stacked on them. The burgers still take a while to make. They have listed a kids meal on the menu but apparently they charge you more/less. Makes no sense you are making me buy more nuggets at a higher price than listed. Than they charged less for the cheese burger. I guess making your own prices even though something else is listed is okay?! Next comes the quality of the food. Terrible. The burger was dry. The meat was dry and had a bad smell to it. My husband agreed to both of these observations. Sucks we paid for a double patty on both burgers. Getting underseasoned, dry, double patties that have a rancid smell. How bad! So this was a beyond bad experience. I was super hungry and had a long day. I was looking for something amazing. But instead got this. They pretty much need to improve on everything. read more

Burgers are good and they're a good size to. Healthier than your regular fast food place, staff is welcoming.

Fantastic quality burgers! So much better than fast food. Really solid burgers, and they have a pretty big menu. What I tried: -straw onion burger -old-fashion cheeseburger (with bacon) -coleslaw Lebanese burger -fries with cheese (And they are currently running a special for $2.99 smashburgers at both of their locations in Santa Ana and Irvine!) read more

Thank you so much @gourmet_burgers for inviting me in to collaborate! Spicy Burger- this burger comes with jalapeños, red onions, lettuce, tomato, and chipotle mayo on a sesame bun. This was so good! The jalapeños gave it the perfect amount of heat without being overwhelming, and the chipotle mayo added this amazing smoky flavor. The burger patty was juicy and cooked perfectly, and all the fresh vegetables added great crunch and flavor. The sesame bun held everything together really well. Coleslaw Lebanese Burger- this was such a unique combination! Made with coleslaw, fries, red onions, tomatoes, ketchup, and American cheese on a sesame bun. I loved how they put the fries right on the burger - it added this perfect crunch and made it so filling. The coleslaw was fresh and creamy, and it paired surprisingly well with the beef patty. The American cheese melted perfectly and the ketchup tied everything together. Such a creative twist on a classic burger! Onion Rings- these were absolutely delicious! The onion rings were perfectly crispy on the outside with sweet, tender onions inside. The batter was light and not greasy at all, which is exactly what you want. They had the perfect crunch and weren't over-fried. Fries- these were really good! They were crispy on the outside and fluffy inside with great seasoning. The perfect side to go with the burgers and had that ideal golden color. I loved how they have a variety of sauces available! It's so nice to have options to customize your meal and try different flavor combinations. The sauce selection really sets this place apart and shows they care about letting customers personalize their experience. The service was great and the food came out really fast, which was awesome! This place really knows how to do burgers right with creative combinations and quality ingredients. The Lebanese burger concept is so unique and executed perfectly! Instagram: @hungrytam read more

We love trying new burger places, especially small businesses, to show our support. This is exactly the kind of place worth supporting. They offer burgers in various styles, along with some sandwiches and wings. Most importantly, their burgers and wings are freshly made. It's not a fancy or expensive spot, but it's authentic and representative of great quality. The owners are friendly and hardworking, always striving to give you the best read more

The cashier/cook is absolutely disgusting. She has touched every surface, wrote with a pen, touched her cell phone and then went straight for the buns and started cooking. She was also eating well cooking our food. I didnt want to ask for a refund because she didnt even know how to use the tablet. I would really like to speak with a manager. read more

We wanted to grab some lunch since we were shopping around the area. Found this spot and noticed they serve Halal meat. We never tried Halal burgers, so we were curious. Check-in: Make sure you check in on Yelp for an old fashioned burger $8.99 combo meal! Parking: They're located in a plaza. Plenty of free parking. Ambiance/Environment: It's a very casual spot. They have a medium sized space with plenty of seating and limited outdoor seating. Service: There were only 2 workers. We mainly interacted with Moe since he took our order and checked on us a couple times. Both workers were quick and efficient. What we ordered: 1) Ranch Burger - This had a good amount of ranch. They also gave us more ranch on the side. The beef patty was cooked well with a generous amount of Swiss cheese! 2) Coleslaw Lebanese Burger - The beef patty was seasoned well! The red onions & coleslaw made it more vibrant and gave it flavor. I'd prefer a bit more fries in the burger, but it was still good. 3) Fried Zucchini - This is exactly what it sounds like and tasted as expected. The breading was good. The exterior was definitely crunchy. 4) Cheese Fries - Ironically there was no cheese, but the fries were seasoned well. Don't forget to dip! 5) Gourmet Wings (6 pieces) - These were my favorite! Their wings were drenched in their house Gourmet sauce and fried perfectly. It was absolutely delicious! Pricing: These prices are $. What a steal especially in this economy! Highly recommend! read more

Came in on Sunday Lunch and it was fairly empty. I think the big part of this place is that all the meat is Halal which is great if you're into that. The burgers are your classic burgers with a few added things and overall they are good. Owners/workers were also very nice and friendly. They walked me through the options and told me what's popular. I tried out these items. Spicy Burger - Personally this one was kind of whatevers. It is a basic burger with jalapenos. Nothing bad, but also nothing too special. (3.5/5) Coleslaw "Labanese" Burger - I enjoyed this one. Coleslaw was creamy and overall this is a VERY saucy burger. Burger patty was flavored well. Had French Fries inside too. (4.5/5) Onion Rings - Honestly felt the sides were the best part. One of the best onion rings I've had because I love it when its super crunchy. Solid (5/5). Fried Zucchini - Also another winner. Good breading and overall flavors. Didn't think it was that greasy. (5/5) Overall I enjoyed this spot. I don't think it's the best burger I've had but for a quick bite I enjoyed it. Don't skip on the sides because they were definitely the best part IMO. read more

Don't forget the Fried Zucchini, French Fries, and Onion Rings, all paired with a delightful trio of dipping sauces! Mo was helpful at the front helping us decide the perfect burgers for us! Plenty of seating indoor and outdoor or grab and go! read more

OVERALL : Gourmet Burger serves a variety of burgers and sandwiches (both beef and chicken options) as well as some salads and appetizers such as onion rings, fries, and wings. They are a simple, no-frills establishment but open until 2am every day which is great for late night cravings. They have the classic hamburger / cheeseburger meals, but also more unique options like mushroom burger, BBQ burger, Coleslaw Lebanese Burger, and a Sourdough Burger. Default orders come with 1 patty but you can pay a little more to upgrade to 2 patties. I thought the combo (burger, drink, side) was filling! Service was fast and friendly, and I appreciated the fresh veggies + Halal meat patties made in house. PARKING : Shared parking lot with other businesses, but not crowded. You should not have any issues finding parking! FOOD/DRINKS : Straw Onion Burger: sesame bun, chipotle mayo, beef patty, pepper jack cheese, straw onions, tomato, lettuce -- loved the classic sesame bun on this one, and the straw onions added a nice crisp! Ranch Burger: wheat bun, beef patty, Swiss cheese, straw onions, lettuce, tomato, ranch dressing -- the ranch made this saucy, but not too overbearing! Wheat bun was unique and you could def taste the difference versus just a normal white bread bun. Onion Rings and Fries -- soooo crispy! Loved the classic ketchup and ranch with these! read more

I had the chance to try Yelp's best burger in the nation in Hawaii at Shige's Saimin Stand, but that doesn't even come close to the burger I had here at Gourmet Burger. If you are served by Mo, hes super friendly and an awesome owner. Make sure to say hi to him as he appreciates every single one of his customers. The plaza it is located in has plenty of parking, and there is a good amount of space inside. Its reminiscant of a simple but homey burger joint. I got to talk to him about this business and how he puts so much effort into making every burger. All the meat is Halal, and prepared fresh daily. They prep, grind and smash the meat for all their patties. Same with the veggies, they are prepped every morning so nothing is left overnight. And not to forget their sauces are homemade as well. I ordered a BBQ burger and a Lebanese coleslaw burger, both had nicely seasoned meat patties stacked with fresh veggies. Taste wise and visually, it was everything a good burger should be. Not greasy, piled high with toppings and delicious. They do put a lot of sauce on the buns, so if you don't like too much sauce just let them know. Overall really solid burger, and it really helps to know everything is prepared fresh. You can taste the difference. read more

BBQ burger and Crispy Chicken was what my brother and I ordered! Mo who cooked and took our order was welcoming and amazing. I wanted to have half of my brother's burger so Mo offered to cut it for us! Crispy Chicken was the crispiest chicken I've ever had, complimented well with the ranch! Simple, classic, and delightful all around! Prices are definitely cheaper than fast food too! The BBQ had these crunchy onion rings and bacon, that was the best along with the bbq sauce. I would definitely buy it again. Mo gave amazing customer service and recommendations! The ambiance was nice and quiet inside as well. He's exceptionally accommodating. read more

Me and my boyfriend went tonight and the food was amazing. The food came out really quick and the service was good. The fries where so fresh and crispy and delicious. I just needed to add my own salt, but always better to be undersalted vs over salted. I dont like buffalo so we got the normal wings and they again where SO crispy delicious and fresh. I would get some ranch next time. J got the onion straws burger and my bf got the BBQ burger, both literally so delicious, I dont usually review places but genuinly the food and burgers specifically where so good I couldn't help myself. And the prices where so good especially for how good the food was. 10/10 will be back. read more

came here to pick up my order because it said ready, no one was at the front for like 7 minutes. buns on the grill and two meat patties under an iron being burnt. so i called the shop phone twice and some lady finally came around to answer it. still ignoring me at the register. when i told her i was here to pick up my mozzarella sticks, she didn't even have them ready. no gloves, touching the phone, touching the register, touching the ipads, the meat, the fryer handle, she reaches into the freezer and pulls out a handful of frostbitten mozzarella sticks and throws them into the fryer. this place is nasty, the food was not worth the prices they stick on it, nor is there anyone even working there. i came cause the reviews which must be from family and friends, but there's a reason why it's always empty when i drive by. read more

I came into this restaurant anticipating a solid dinner. Sadly, I was met with disappointment and left hungry. The guy taking orders was not customer driven. Seemed short tempered, acted as though he dislikes people. However, the gentleman preparing food was very kind. Even caught a minute to come by our table of 4 and made friendly small talk. Ranch burger: Too much bread and lettuce, missing the ranch flavor (had to get extra), burger patty near paper thin. BBQ bacon cheeseburger: Not bad, but the furthest thing from gourmet. I am normally a guy who takes the top bun off, but I ate this one in full hoping to get my fill (didnt). Fries: Good texture (not soggy, not overly crispy) but lacked all flavor. The bathroom had no seat covers, toilet paper, or hand soap. The toilet leaked heavily when flushing, which explains why the last person who used it did not flush. The cleanest area of this restaurant had to be the outdoor seating area. Maybe we visited on a bad day, which is bad news. read more
