    2 crispy chicken sandwiches, 1 spicy chicken sandwich, curly fries, & onion rings
    Sandy Q.

    I came here during the lunch rush on a Wednesday and the restaurant was packed. Ordering is done through 2 kiosks that's by the front door. I ordered 2 crispy chicken sandwiches, 1 spicy chicken sandwich, curly fries, and onion rings. Even with a packed restaurant, our food didn't take too long to be made. Since my son didn't want to dine in, we ended up taking the food home to enjoy. In terms of flavor, the chicken sandwiches were juicy with a slight cumin flavor but the batter was too thick (instead of "crispy", it was slightly on the hard side). As for the spicy chicken sandwich, it's actually not spicy. It's more like a "medium" at Dave's Hot Chicken. As for the sides, I would skip the onion rings. The quantity I received, does not justify the price I paid.

    The restaurant was pretty empty on a Thursday evening. Only a few online orders got in the way of our order from being completed in under 10 minutes. Seating is plentiful too. I got the crispy chicken sandwich and a side of fries. The crispy chicken sandwich was super crispy and at the same time, surprisingly juicy. I would rate the sandwich a solid 8/10. However the fries were a complete let down. They were dry, and not seasoned at all. It was straight potato, deep fried and even the ketchup couldn't save them. I was pretty disappointed by them.

    Heart broken that the San Mateo location in prime location of downtown San Mateo closed down, a little over a year. Glad this location is going strong! A bit of a drive but well worth it! Better than raising cane's and super duper! They are missing the macho sauce from San Mateo location. Glad the quality is consistent with the fried chicken menu items which is virtually the entire menu.

    Hm got takeout since I love chicken sandwiches but this one was a miss. Probably just a preference thing but there are strong smells from the chicken that I've not experienced with Chickfila, Popeyes, or Dave's. And the sandwich is not cheap either I'd say it's actually probably the most expensive among them. For the price and taste I'md probs opt for one of the other three next time.

    Macho Burger doesn't sell their flavored beef burgers anymore, just the Macho Cheeseburger. I was looking forward to trying their green chili pepper cheeseburger and black truffle cheeseburger. I ended up only getting the Macho Crispy Chicken Sandwich. It was indeed the crispiest chicken sandwich I ever had. My friend got one of their chicken wraps and the nuggets. She agreed it was one of the crispiest she had especially in the Bay Area. The nuggets has a slightly crispier outing than McD. This is an order at the kiosk and pick up at the counter type place. Your food comes on a tray and you bus your own table. They serve your food fast!

    Macho Burger consistently delivers a really good chicken sandwich IMO. They season and fry the chicken exceptionally well, it's the perfect amount of scraggly-ness without scratching up the roof of your mouth. The chicken is juicy and flavorful too. One thing I love about their sandwiches is they're well constructed and don't fall apart - the buns have a nice sweetness to them without being overly dense. The fries remind me of McDonald's fries and I was surprised at how much I enjoyed these. +$5 to add on fries and drink, but it's a big size drink and they give you a generous portion of fries. My only note is the spicy chicken sandwich could be a bit spicier but that's my personal preference. Would highly recommend!

    Mmmm. Not my thing. Seemed like it had good reviews so I thought maybe a good new lunch place. I love burgers. These were just quickly made and very cheap quality. Same with the fried chicken sandwich. Fries equally not that great. Clean place. Weird service. Order at the kiosk and pick up food when ready. No human interaction.

    I really enjoyed their chicken wrap, but their other items (that we've tried) were just meh. We ordered a chicken kebab, beijing chicken wrap, spicy chicken sandwich, and some rattan pepper on the side. I noticed that they might've prioritized the to-go orders, because the big group of people who placed their food after us got their food way before us (we opted for dine-in). The wrap for the chicken wrap reminded me of the peking duck wraps, soft and thin, perfect balance with the sauce and the crispy chicken. The chicken sandwich was underwhelming. The buns weren't toasted, it was basic/thick. There was some flavor missing in the sandwich. The crispy chicken was juicy though.

    My go-to order here is the Macho crispy chicken sandwich. The chicken is juicy, flavorful, and perfectly crispy, topped with just mayo and lettuce. It was served piping hot, with steam rising from the sandwich. I wish they allowed modifications though. I would skip the chicken skewers as they were about half meat half cartilage. I found it too hard to chew.

    We tried Macho Burger on a Sat afternoon. We didn't realize it was mostly a chicken place until looking at the menu (not a bad thing though!). The restaurant had a few tables taken and ordering was simple with a touchscreen. We ordered: -Original Crispy Chicken Sandwich: the chicken was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. This was pretty good. -Popcorn Chicken with Spicy Cumin: spicy cumin came on the side and was $0.75 extra. You kind of need the seasoning for the popcorn chicken. This place's sandwich did kind of remind me of like Popeyes/Chick-Fil-A. Tips: - the spicy cumin tasted good on the popcorn chicken and sandwich -They mostly sell chicken here, but I did see one beef burger on the menu. Overall, it was an okay fast food experience.

    Driven by this place a couple times after the gym and finally got to try it. There's a small parking lot in the back. When you walk in, you order at a machine. There's a paper menu on the counter or virtual menu above on the TVs. There was a lot of indoor seating and a few outdoor seats. We took our order to go so keep that in mind. Spicy crispy chicken sandwich: 4/5, my boyfriend liked the flavor and the chicken was super crunchy. The bun was not soggy but he wishes that there were more sauce. It has some lettuce on the inside but only a few pieces Curly fries: 3/5, they give you a lot for a side order. It was cold by the time we ate it but we also took it to go. They gave us a few ketchup packets. Unlike the chicken, the fries were not crunchy. 2 pieces chicken thigh and leg: 3.5/5, the chicken was super crispy and flavorful but I just don't think I can justify it for the price. For $9, that's pretty expensive for the chicken itself. Fries and a drink are additional. I wish there was a dipping sauce for the chicken. 2 skewer chicken kabob: 1/5, not my favorite out of everything we ordered. The chicken lacked flavor. I think it had pieces of chicken and chicken gizzard. The chicken gizzard was super tough and hard to chew. I wouldn't get this again. I really enjoyed the fried chicken the most given the flavor and crunchiness. I wouldn't go out of my way to get it but if I'm in the area I would grab it.

    11. Tender Beef Wrap.

    Gavin wanted a burger last Saturday. We left Whis-Purr Rescue Inc. around 10:30 and I knew he'd be hungry. I Yelped quickly and saw this place when I did a search. I saw Cherylynn's and Amy's review, so I figured it's safe to go but please do not come here if you think the service is fast. We were 3rd in the queue (their orders were already placed). This is not a fast food joint, but can't say I regret coming here. We ordered at the kiosk. I was shocked when Gavin ordered a grilled chicken sandwich. This place is known for their fried chicken, so after we ordered I had to add an order of popcorn chicken. The Tender Beef Wrap is a Chinese version of the crunchwrap supreme from Taco Bell. The beef was tender and so flavorful, but the wrapping was awful. It fell apart the second I picked it up. The fries were standard however, I must say the popcorn chicken was light, not greasy, and extremely delicious. I would not go back but very glad we tried.

Living with multiple food allergies can make eating out stressful and, at times, discouraging. Many restaurants try their best, but it's rare to encounter someone who goes as far above and beyond as Jason did. From the very beginning, Jason took my allergies seriously. Rather than treating them as a simple modification request, he took the time to understand my specific concerns and personally communicated with the chef to ensure every precaution was taken. What impressed me most was that he didn't just ask once and move on--he followed up multiple times throughout the process, making sure every item I received was prepared as safely as possible. His level of attention and care gave me confidence that my health and safety truly mattered. Jason's kindness was evident in every interaction. He patiently answered questions, verified ingredients, and double-checked preparation methods. Instead of making me feel like my allergies were an inconvenience, he made me feel welcomed and valued as a guest. That level of empathy means more than people without food allergies may realize. The extra precautions taken in the kitchen were remarkable. Jason coordinated with the chef to ensure separate cooking methods were used whenever necessary and that steps were taken to minimize any risk of cross-contact. My food was packaged separately and clearly distinguished from the rest of the order, which immediately showed me how much thought had gone into keeping my meal safe. Even more touching were the notes left on the packaging specifically for me. Those small details demonstrated a level of personal care that is incredibly rare in the restaurant industry. Because of my allergies, my meal options were understandably limited. I ordered a plain burger with sautéed green beans, while my friends enjoyed several different burgers from the menu. Although my meal was simple, it was prepared perfectly. The burger was cooked exactly as requested, allowing the quality of the meat to stand on its own, and the green beans were fresh, tender, and flavorful. Most importantly, I was able to enjoy a restaurant meal with confidence instead of anxiety. My friends thoroughly enjoyed their burgers as well, commenting on the flavor, quality, and preparation. It was wonderful that everyone at the table could have a great dining experience, despite having very different dietary needs. What touched me most from this visit isn't just the food--it's the care. Jason's willingness to communicate with the chef, verify ingredients, package items separately, use special preparation methods, and personally check in throughout the process transformed what could have been a stressful experience into an enjoyable one. For those of us with food allergies, being able to order food safely is something we never take for granted. Jason made that possible. Exceptional customer service is often defined as exceeding expectations, and Jason exceeded mine at every step. His professionalism, compassion, attention to detail, and genuine concern for guest safety are truly commendable. I am incredibly grateful for the effort he put into accommodating my allergies and ensuring I could enjoy a meal without worry. Experiences like this create loyal customers, and Jason is a perfect example of how kindness and care can make a lasting impact.

The cashier was extremely nice, and she was very patient as I took a long time to read their GIANT MENU. They have Thai Iced Tea milkshakes, I have never heard of such a thing, and I will definitely try it next time. This time I got a strawberry shake. It was my first day quitting cigarettes cold turkey after 25 years, so I wasn't about to risk my shake experience with a possible dud. The strawberry shake hit the spot, or as the youngins say "It hits." The burger and fries were delicious too, or as the youngsters say "Mad fire bro." I would pass on the firehouse fries next time, they were not fire, they were lowkey nasty, as the kids say. Check out my photos, you won't be disappointed.

They were packed during the games, though the line moved fairly quickly. If ordering only beer, orders were placed directly at the bar. The beer selection was displayed on screens above the ordering counter, though there were additional ciders and sours available upon request. Food came out quickly as the grill was constantly being reloaded. After ordering, I was given a pager that buzzed once everything was ready. The pick up station was located near condiment counters lined with half opened bottles of hot sauce, mustard, and mayonnaise. I did appreciate the ketchup variety, which included original, chipotle, and curry options. *Dragonfruit, Passionfruit Sour: pleasantly acidic and fruit forward. This unfortunately came from a can rather than the tap. I was offered a chilled glass, which I accepted, though the can itself was not refrigerated so the final pour ended up disappointingly lukewarm. *Onion Rings: disappointing batter execution. They were already half soggy despite us eating them immediately. The coating lacked airiness and everything had a one dimensional chewiness. I also wished both the batter and onion carried more sweetness and developed flavor. *Sweet Potato Fries: suffered from the same sogginess as the onion rings. The portion was generous for $8, though these largely served as a vehicle for the various ketchup options rather than standing on their own. Oddly enough, the women's bathroom was far cleaner than the dining area itself. Our table appeared unwiped when we sat down, and the sauce station was noticeably greasy. I ended up avoiding most of the condiments because the bottles had a visible and tangible film coating them. Unfortunately, I felt somewhat ill after finishing the meal and definitely noticed the effects afterward. St. John's has a strong beer program and great game day atmosphere, but the cleanliness issues were difficult to overlook. The entire space could benefit from a much more thorough deep clean. On top of that, the underwhelming quality of the appetizers made it hard to justify returning when even the simplest menu items lacked proper execution.

The provolone was also square shaped on the burger and only covered about 3/4 of it, so I'm guessing they just used the presliced sandwich slices. They also used what I guess was about 1/4 of an avocado. Sooooo.... Not exactly worth it or what I expected. The burger wasn't bad mind you, just average and not juicy at all. The rest of my group all got 6 oz cheeseburgers which looked very blah. I will say, the French fries were good. Very crispy and soft inside. Probably the high point of the meal. There's not really any service to speak of as they take your order at the counter by the door then you come up and get your food yourself, and they expect you to bus your own tables. So consider tipping optional and unnecessary. Inside it's a bit old and a bit rundown. Not dirty but not well maintained either. The only reason I came was because we wanted to get sliders, which as far as I can tell they don't even sell. So the name is a misnomer. The total for everything was around $80. This place fails the "is it better than In-n-Out" test, so that price is just ridiculous. I won't be back.
