Jacks has, hands down, the best breakfast burrito in the valley! They cook it quick and I have never had a bad one in 10 years.

I have driven past this place many times and always wanted to stop. I finally did. We made it over around 7:30pm and a good thing we did because as soon as we ordered our double cheeseburgers they ran out of meat. The place is nothing to brag about but it has a cute charm to it. It's just a walk up and had to gentlemen working one taking the orders and one cooking the burgers. The man at the window was really nice. Even though they had a few tables to sit at outside we decide to take our food home. Luckily we live down the road so our burgers were still nice and hot. Meat was cooked perfectly and cheese melted and running down the side. The veggies were juice and crisp. The fries were nice and crispy just how I like them. They even asked if we wanted seasoning salt on our fries which I'm glad I said yes!! I will definitely be back again. read more

Great spot!! Delicious food with friendly staff. Conveniently located. Stopped by here after our hike in Griffith. Delicious burger spot. They have more than just burgers too. It's like if Tommy's and in n out had a kid, it would be Jack. Definitely coming back to try their breakfast burrito! Their chilli cheese fries were so good. My daughter who eats like a bird actually finished her burger and ate most of the CCF! Overall, great burger spot!! We will be definitely be coming back! read more

Love Jack's! Just moved down the street and was so pleased to discover this local gem. It's a cute little burger shack on the corner of a major intersection. The food is always fresh & made to order and the ingredients are high quality. The service is always fairly quick and polite; they pay attention to any requests or modifications. My BF and I have only had burgers and zucchini fries from here, so I can't really speak to what the rest of their menu tastes like, but I imagine it's all good! If they had malts or milkshakes here I'd be in trouble!! read more

Have driven by this little stand forever. I grew up in LA frequenting these mom and pop stands that once populated many streets in LA and the Valley. Jack's was fine - got it via DoorDash and I always appreciate a good old-fashioned mom and pop burger. I don't think I chose the right sauce for it, so would try something else next time, but everything was of high quality and I enjoyed it. read more

These days, finding a good burger is easy...but between wagyu and smashed and sliders, there ends up being a few places where you can get a truly classic burger. For that you have to dig deep and look in places where you don't expect or maybe, in the place you should have been looking at all along. Technically, I would consider Jack's Classic Hamburgers a "blink and you'll miss it," spot, but since it's located in one of the worst intersections in the valley, there's a good chance you'll be stuck at a red light and see it. However, due to the traffic and lack of parking sometimes in the tiny parking lot, it may not be the easiest to get to...but you should definitely try to. For years now, I've driven by this humble stand and recently, I finally decided to try it. On first bite I haven't missed much, but I've definitely missed something. The burger is as plain as they come. There's nothing special about it. Bun, meat, some poorly chopped up veggies...but there's something about that combo that just works. It doesn't need a special sauce or some fancy seasoning, it's just a burger and sometimes that's all you need for a good lunch. The patty is interesting though...it tastes like it's been cooked on a flatop that's been around for decades. I always get cheeseburgers and didn't realize their pastrami burger did not come with cheese. It was plain and dry, but that ended up being a good thing cause I was able to taste the patty for what it is. If I had one complaint about the burger, it was the bun. To borrow a phrase, the bun is cromulent. After being wrapped in paper on my way back to the office, the bun had gotten squished...a little bit soggy. Instead of being that toasted, brown color, it was rather pallid and pale. If there was any kind of upgrade or something special added to the burger, it'd be the bun...this is where a brioche or some kind of sesame seeded bun would make things better. I ended up getting their combo meal, which came with fries and a drink. Bonus points for a burger stand to offer jamaica. Maybe the best part of my meal was their fries. Think McDonalds fries, but crispier. You get end up getting a bag full of it when you take it to go and that in itself was a meal. I got it with their seasoning salt and man do those flavors shine. I probably should have shaken up the bag a bit before eating, but if you just want a good plate of fries, this is the place to go. I think I just missed the lunch rush so my order was made fairly quickly, by some very nice people behind the window. Another plus to this Toluca Lake institution. If you just want to find a classic, uncomplicated burger, you don't have to look very far...it's at the burger stand you should have been ordering from all along. read more

Jack's Classic Hamburgers - Waiting for my order - Burgers Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Old school now fuss no muss grilled burgers (they also have burritos and other offerings but this review is on the burgers only atm) Now this is the best burgers in North Hollywood imho - fresh ingredients, non greasy beef and crunchy always cooked right bacon. Their fries at bomb but the onion rings are crazy good! Also a big fan of their thousand island dressing. The flavor profiles take me back to 20years back when places like Burger King or Carls Jr used to be good and cared about quality. Jacks is indeed a classic burger through and through . You won't be disappointed. The service is always on point and don't be surprised if there is a bit of a line - it's THAT GOOD! read more

Haven't been here for several years. Back in the day this place was one of the best spots to get a well made burger. Well not today! We ordered 3 cheeseburger combos and spent 40 dollars wouldn't have complained if the burger was decent. Dry ass burger with 3 thick ass onion slices. I would be surprised if there was a tablespoon of mayo and I teaspoon of ketchup on that burger! What ever the amount it was only in the center of the bread! Don't get me started on the over seasoned over cooked fries!! Horrible to being nice! Spent 40 dollars and asked for 1 ranch... JUST 1 and man with the glasses said 50 cents!!! Bro for real??? I then asked if he put the peppers in the bag and with a tone he responded with a not yet! I ate two bites and asked my sweet husband to eat a second meal so our daughters money didn't go to waste! We will go to Toms who make a better burger... p.s the soda was flat and my daughter didn't touch her fries!! What a waste of money!!! read more

This spot reminded me of a really well-made Carl's Jr. Famous Star classic, messy-good, and super satisfying. The burger has that griddle-char and old-school flavor that just hits right. The seasoned fries are great too. Service was quick and friendly, which makes it an easy choice when you just want something solid without the fuss. The whole vibe feels like a neighborhood staple. Overall, great experience I'd definitely come back for a quick bite and a good burger. read more

I live around the corner from this spot and never gave it a chance. well that changed last week and I'm so happy I decided to try it. This place has top tier burgers and fries. I feel like this is what another major burger chain used to taste like in the 90's. The food is always fresh, the service is fast and friendly. The only thing is the parking but I can definitely look past that because everything else is top tier. read more

By far, one of the best hamburger spots, I have been to. I ordered the bacon double cheeseburger combo. The hamburger was gigantic. The beef patties were cooked well. But the highlight of the show was the crispy and crunchy bacon. You often get limp bacon. Not at Jack's Classic though. The french fries were very reminiscent of McDonald's. You can take that information as you like. read more

Great lil spot for a quick bite. Not too greasy, very tasty, and I can imagine it'll be even better when curing a hangover! I got the breakfast burrito and it's really tasty. The guy inside was nice but it was real hard to hear him between the glass and the freeway noise in the background (obvs not his fault tho!) read more

The fourth star is for the fact that the cooks are very fast and friendly. Nice place. Bad location. You have a view of the freeway or a 7-11. I'd like to know how long this place has been here. I didn't see an established 19... or Since 19.... They should add that if it's not up. The cheeseburger is alright. It's your basic 50s style burger maybe something you'd get at a Ruby's nowadays. Not a lot of seasoning. Fries seemed the frozen kind but were served piping hot! If I want a 50s style cheeseburger. I'm going to In n Out. It's just a better burger. read more

One of my favorite places to get a burger in the valley. Quick, great, and relatively inexpensive.

Eating here off and on for fifty years! They still have very good burgers. Double burger is amazing.

The burgers are greasy and delicious! If you have 15 minutes in your day, stop by this place for really delicious fast food. Somehow, this place just makes me really happy. read more

Jack's Classic Hamburgers - Double cheeseburger combo - Burgers Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I was driving through the neighborhood and remembered Jack's was there decided to try one of their breakfast items - "Patty and Egg" which is basically their hamburger with a fried egg. I got their 10 min earlier than their opening but the guy said he'd be open soon, a short wait and I got my order in. Glad I came by and tried it, it hit the spot! Delicious! I recommend going to Jack's for all their other menu items but if you feel like a burger for breakfast, go get their Patty and egg with everything on it! It was a nice chilly morning sitting outside and Riverside blvd wasn't busy yet so it was a very pleasant meal Al fresco. read more

Jack's Classic Hamburgers - The Patty and Egg with everything breakfast with an ice tea. Hit the spot!!! - Burgers Near Me - Los Angeles, California

The best local spot, amazing burgers, good prices, and generous portions. Super friendly workers and bomb food!

Yuck. I ordered a $10 pastrami burger and it was very obvious that the burger patty was precooked long ago. Very thin and dry. This is not what you expect from a small hamburger stand. Even the pastrami was dry. I had been here sometime back. I stopped in as I was driving by. I did not remember this poor of a food experience. 2 stars because it tasted OK. read more

Been going to Jack's burgers for almost 30 years, first on Coldwater and now on Riverside. This is definitely not fancy, basically a shack on a busy intersection.The burgers are outstanding hand made patties, super crisp bacon, great lettuce ,tomato and onions. This week we had exceptional service by the cashier who brought out our food( usually have to pick it up), the fries were skinny and delicious. The tables are turned quickly as there are only a few,but did not feel rushed. In my opinion these are by far the best burgers in the SFV! read more

I'm new to North Hollywood and I have drove by here a few times and definitely a hole in the wall type of spot. I ordered the Bacon Hamburger Combo, grilled onions, added cheese. Decently priced, nice sized portion of fries ( with the option of season salt) to go along with the burger. The reason I am giiving Jack's a 4 star review is because their ranch dressing is terrible If you are going to charge 50 cent per ranch it should be a better quality of ranch dressing just saying. I will come back and tey something again without ranch. read more

When ever I'm in the area i come here. Been coming here for a while and i just love it. Breakfast burritos are great, cheese burgers are also great! I love their fries. Classic is in the name and it's very well classic in the best way read more

I've never eaten here before until yesterday. I must say the burger and fries were so delicious. Before eating here, I hadn't eaten anything in 16 hours and 5 hours after eating my delicious veggie burger and fries I stated feeling nauseous followed with vomiting, and diarrhea, then the worst abdominal cramps I had ever experienced in my life. I started feeling the chills and everything I drank came right back out despite how thirsty I was. I'm really thinking it could have been the lettuce, so I hope no one else got sick. read more

A great old-fashioned hamburger stand! The burgers are high-quality meat cooked to order and taste great. The fries are an absolute must with the seasoned salt. read more

Service was excellent and the burgers and fries were absolutely delicious. Burgers tasted like what you dream a classic burger would be like, and the season to your liking approach they use for their crispy fries guarantees for a basket that will surely satisfy your cravings. With a few covered tables and standing bar perches it gives the warm feeling of a joint that's been around since the times when quality used to be a non-negotiable and they don't plan on changing anytime soon. And don't forget to also grab yourself a corn dog on the side to bring the whole experience together. read more

Jack's is good, fast, simple food made by some REALLY nice guys. The prices are great. I've only had the burgers and the fries but they're good! Oh, I had the chili once and it was also good. We must walk down here at least two or three times a month. It never lets us down! It's a terrific to-go place, that's been here for years, with good food at good prices. read more

This is the place to go for a good classic style burger in North Hollywood. They might not have the biggest parking lot but if you live in the NoHo arts district it's very worth the short walk. The employees are always friendly and polite, and focus on customer satisfaction. I love the Patty and Egg Sandwich. It's my new go-to for when I have a late breakfast. Today I added bacon, which I don't usually do and I was pleasantly surprised that the bacon was real, thick-cut, smoked (judging by the flavor) BACON. They also have fountain drinks and horchata. I don't usually get drinks but I got the root beer once and it was flavorful and refreshing. Yelp wants me to comment on the ambiance. It's an outdoor shack adjacent to a corner shopping center on a 5-way intersection by the highway. Perfect for a romantic date or if you just need a nice place to relax. No but for real, the only complaint about the dining area is that there isn't enough shade in the morning. However, since it's a burger joint, I doubt most people are going there in the morning . I love Jack's Classic Hamburgers! Thank you guys for the nourishment! read more

Fresh cooked burger. Really good fries. Service is what you expect for a roadside burger. Four outdoor tables and walk up only service. I will definitely come here again. read more

Have been wanting to try Jacks Classic for some time. Love that old school Hamburger stand look. I ordered the Bacon Burger Combo. It took a min to get our food. Hot ticket would be to Phone order your food about 30 mins before. The Burger was just as I pictured it. That old school burger & fries were great. Order the double burger & skip the bacon would be my recommendation. The price was fair & parking is tough. Park down the street and walk would be what I would do. read more

I've been here multiple times as I live down the block, this place has never disappointed. Burgers always taste fresh, I love the buns they use and the fries w a side of ranch and BBQ go crazy. It never really takes too long to get a burger either. No complaints here love it. read more

An old time burger stand that you must try! My kids wanted a burger and I remembered this place was near where we were driving. I'm so glad we went. We finally tried it and it took me back to those old burger shacks when I was a kid and teen in the 80s! The burger had that taste of nostalgia. It was the traditional ingredients of lettuce, tomato, onion, house sauce ( I went with mayo /mustard) charred taste, slightly greasy (yum!) , toasted bun and just perfect. The fries that came with the combo were shoestring fries that we love. They were slightly soft yet crispy and came in a brown paper bag that made it more enjoyable ! Besides burgers, they have the usual burger joint items- hot dogs, grilled cheese, tacos, chili, etc.. This will be one of my favs from now on. My teens loved it too , who are pretty picky. The guy at the counter was nice and friendly and the order took only minutes. read more

Tuesday afternoon, arrive at 1215 pm, the line is seven persons deep. I've never had to deal with a line when I come for dinner. Lol. We'll see how fast it takes to get to the counter. It ten minutes to put in my togo order: a double burger combo, well done fries, and ice tea. The man got slammed with orders so he said to give him a moment to get orders out of the way. So we're now at 1225, he gets caught up and I pay for my order. He actually said that he applied the Yelp check in discount. He verbally tells me the order is $11.99 with the discount added. It's now 1240 while writing this review he called out my order. He asked if I wanted any condiments. He gives me the food but I asked for the drink that he forgot. I get to my curbside parking spot because the tiny lot was full. My rule is to always eat the fries when they're as fresh as possible. Don't wait as they'll get cold and won't be crispy. I'm not sure the fries were all done but they were good. The fries were gone by the time I returned to work. The burger was fantastic, jack mistakenly added cheese. The flavor reminds me of the carls super star. read more
