My first time here and it was amazing. We had the classic burger and the Diablo burger and both were so juicy and tasty. Carly fries were so good as well. Definitely recommend! read more

Pretty crummy experience. I came in today and the bartender was hanging out with her friends at the bar instead of engaging with the other customers. She was on her cell phone in full view of everyone, even though the place was practically empty. This place used to be a great spot, but it's gone downhill more and more every time I've visited. Unfortunately, this was the last straw. I won't be coming back. read more

Mona's Burger's are great. Taste like right off the grill with excellent trimmings. Cost is affordable, and the staff is amazing. Drop by there to enjoy a great hamburger, enjoy! read more

We have been to Mona's three times now. The ten year old always gets the kids hotdog with pineapple and I get the Mona's burger, sub the impossible burger, no bacon and fries. We also order homemade lemonade and a shake. So far the Reese's peanut butter shake is my favorite, which happens to be my favorite blizzard flavor as a child. Service is always solid. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Space is clean and inviting.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

We came here for a late lunch and discovered that happy hour is from 2-5pm! For $11 each we got the 1/4 lb Drunken Burger and sweet potato fries, then a glass of Merlot for $5. The burgers were tasty and cooked medium rare as requested. The wine was good quality for the price. Server was friendly and prompt with the bill when asked. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I also liked the paintings and banksy prints on the walls.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's a TV at the bar that might be good for sports games.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Mona's Burgers and Shakes - Drunken Burger with Sweet Potato fries - Salad Near Me - Concord, California

We've ordered from here a few more times and the burgers & fries were better. A decent amount of toppings and less bland than our first time. Shakes are still a bit meh but the food is good enough to order from here occasionally! read more

The Servers were nice.. but thats all I have to say about this spot. Paid nearly $20 (doesnt even include sides for that price) for an underseasoned, bland burger. And you have to put the condiments on yourself? Ill stick with George's and Mooyahs. Mona's was overpriced and mediocre. read more

Over all amazing food it was juicy with lots of flavor and services was great highly recommend

Mona's has been our favorite local burger. Last night My wife was craving fries, and the spicy curly fries came to the rescue, as always. I had the Diablo burger for the second time, and swapped fresh red onions for the default sautéed. They were thinly sliced-perfect. We also got an order of the buffalo chicken wings and they had the perfect texture and flavor. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is cozy, with indoor and outdoor (dog friendly) seating, and the atmosphere is warm and welcoming.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We were the last guests of the night but the owner was very hospitable as always, and we left promptly at closing. We'll be back! read more

We were here for an early Saturday lunch. I think we were the first people in the place. The restaurant is fairly casual, but very comfortable. Love the Banksy-style artwork on the walls. The staff was efficient. We had heard good things about bonus burgers so we decided to try it. We were not disappointed - the food was good! My Mediterranean Burger was very flavorful and not at all dry. The onion rings and fries were also good. My dining companions' burgers also looked very good. My only nit might be that my medium-rare burger was a bit too rare. My companions' medium burgers were a little over medium to them. But the flavor was all good! read more

The food was okay and came out hot, but honestly nothing memorable. What really took away from the experience was the cost -- nearly $30 for a burger, small fries, and a soda is hard to justify. Decent, but overpriced for what it is. read more

I guess I was a day early for National Cheeseburger Day 9/18. But yesterday I came to Mona's during happy hour, which is 2pm to 5pm. On the happy hour menu is $4 beers, $2 sodas, chicken tenders and wings for $5, and of course, choice of burgers/fries for $11. We ended up ordering all of the above. Chicano Burger: this burger has cheddar cheese with guacamole. I added an extra 1/4 pound patty for $4. It was decent. An average burger taste-wise. Chicken tenders: these were excellent. Really tender and fried perfect. I would order this everytime I come to Mona's. Buffalo wings: these were standard, good tasting, freshly fried wings. Great deal for happy hour. The service was excellent and very friendly. The prices were excellent for happy hour. Can't beat $4 IPA and Lagunitas beer. read more

I've lived in the area for 4 years now and I've been to Mona when I first moved here. I've brought family and friends to dine there and I've also ordered for pickup. In my experience with my orders throughout the last 4 years, I feel like the food quality has declined. The service and the staff are AWESOME. But when you get a Gott's burger in Walnut Creek, then a Mona burger in Concord, the quality difference and the flavor is so different. There needs to be more seasoning in the burgers at Mona. Additionally, I usually order the steak salad and the steak was really bland and the beets weren't cooked all the way. The fried onion topping looked like...huge pieces of fried batter and not small fried crunchy pieces? I hope you consider this feedback improved because we should have good and delicious choices in our neighborhood! I'd choose local, spend more, and choose it over chains if that meant I was getting quality food. read more

The whole family was around to celebrate my birthday recently on a hot 100°+ day. Come mid-afternoon the house seemed like it was getting warm, and oh oh the vents were blowing hot air - the A/C was on the fritz! A couple hours later it was getting pretty toasty inside - the motion to adjourn to an air conditioned restaurant was carried unanimously! We decided to try out Mona's. My wife and I had been to the Clayton Rd Mona's and enjoyed it, but it closed after a fire. We looked forward to trying out this other one. There were six of us so we were fortunate to find the restaurant wasn't full on a Saturday night (probably because of the heat). We were a little surprised at how much smaller this location was compared to the former Clayton Road location. We all ordered, and despite a small crowd in the restaurant it took quite a while for the food to come. Fortunately drinks and appetizers filled the time and the server was friendly. I had a cheeseburger that I thought was just OK. The bun was good, but the burger was awfully charred. They serve skinny fries, not my favorite in any case, and these were hard with not much soft inside. The chocolate shake was tasty, and interestingly they serve two sizes of shakes (how much do you want to throw calories to the wind tonight?). My wife was have of the same opinion for her burger. But the biggest let down was it was just godawful hot in the restaurant - and escaping the heat was our main reason for eating out! Their A/C air ducks are located near the ceiling and did not blow on our table at all, given the small size of the room. And the A/C system simply could not cope with the heat. Oh and they charge a 2.5% fee for using a credit card. Overall a disappointment. read more

Earlier, I was debating between ordering from Burger Lounge and Mona's. I decided on Mona's. I ordered and paid more for skinny fries with garlic/ parsley and a Chicano Burger. The fries had no garlic or parley and they were soft/mushy. The hamburger bun tased stale. Next time I'll go with Burger Lounge. read more

First time here. I've been reading good reviews so was looking forward to it. The place is cute and the service was quick and friendly. The food was a bit of a disappointment. I had the Truffle Burger and my friend had the Cali Burger. Fries are a separate order, I ordered the spicy curly fries and my friend had regular. My burger was under cooked, I asked for medium and it was more rare. Overall the burger was okay, but nothing that would have me craving it. The fries were the big disappointment for me, there was no spice at all, they are just seasoned (similar to what I can get at Jack in the Box), felt like false advertising. read more

Super convenient spot, being next to Trader Joe's and pretty quick too for a sit down place. The food was pretty good. The highlight was the Reese's milkshake. Super peanut buttery and very thick. The garlic fries were also really good and crispy. The burgers were decent. I didn't think there was a ton of seasoning on the meat and the sauce they give you didn't have a ton of flavor. But it was still pretty good and felt like a quality burger. We'll definitely be going back for the shakes and just the overall good experience. read more

Mona's Burgers and Shakes - Smiling from my Mona's Burger - Salad Near Me - Concord, California

Just realized I haven't left a review for Mona's Burgers before. I have been coming to this location since 2020 -- best burgers around! [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is kept meticulously clean and the service is always friendly and punctual.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The burgers are freshly made to order with precision on the doneness requested. Burger patties are quite large and the toppings fresh, buns are lovely with black and white sesame seeds. Their french fries are fantastic -- both the regular fries and the curly fries are perfectly crispy. The small size is enough for two people. Mona's satisfies my burger & fries craving exceptionally well every time. read more

The Food was great and service was with a smile. My order was quickly made. I ran to Trader Joe's next door and when I came back my food was just being brought out. For way over four years I have been trying to find a burger joint that makes flame broiled burgers. I never forget the day my dad took my sister and I out to get burgers and I've been in love with the flame broiled taste every since. A burger just isn't a burger unless it's flame broiled! I've gone to restaurants that said their burgers were flame broiled just for it to be a very huge disappointment, I recently gave up until I saw one spot in Concord that mentioned having flame broil burgers, but they are always closed when I am on that side of town. I was on yelp looking for a good burger joint and saw Mona's burgers and shakes. The pictures made me want to go see what the burgers were like? I had no clue that their burgers were flame broiled until I was walking back from Trader Joe's and smelled the char. I instantly got excited and wanted to scream and yell and say OMG they cook flame broiled burgers, but I composed myself. You don't smell flame broil inside the restaurant nor do you smell it outside but you get a hint of the smell like I did as I was walking back to Mona's. Finally when I stopped looking for a flame broiled burger spot. I accidentally ran into one.. The only thing that I did not like were the french fries are not made Fresh from real potatoes I also saw some french fries that were called flats that look like they were cut and peeled french fries but the host told me that they were frozen fries french. Although I did not order the fries and the host saw my concern. I plan to bring my daughters and son back out here to eat and I may just try the fries then. I want them to have the experience of a real burger. My burger was so delicious. The bun was sweet and so soft and good. My veggies on the inside were fresh. The house made mayo was delicious. They should probably put two mayonnaise in the bag instead of one.. I am excited to come back and dine in! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is clean and the service friendly.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Not terribly fast though. I ordered online and arrived when it was supposed to be ready and still had to wait about 10 minutes. Not a deal breaker though as long as the food is good. I got the Drunken Burger. The sauce and blue cheese with bacon and onions was good but the meat itself tasted a little bland. Disappointing. I might be back to try a different burger but not sure. read more

One of the worst burgers we have had in a long time..it's pretty hard to mess up a burger but they nailed it. And that's their specialty, burgers! We paid $53 for 1 flavorless cheeseburger, 1 double, flavorless, patty protein burger and limp sweet potato fries.. l asked for medium rare, and I had to choke it down it was so dry. Not one grain of salt, pepper or Mrs. Dash. Not one swipe of mayo, mustard, special sauce..nothin! Nor did they ask... but I didn't realize that asking for seasoning had to be done ‍ We could have gone to Safeway, bought frozen patties and fries and made a much more enjoyable burger at home, for way less than $53.. that's wild. We won't be going back. read more

I ordered a Diablo burger with a large side of skinny fries tossed in garlic and parsley, as well as three milkshakes (two 12oz and one 24oz), all to go. My wife picked up the food after I ordered online. First, I did not get the correct size on my 24oz milkshake, I received 3 12oz ones. Secondly, the burger was bland with a massive stale wheat bun. It was likely chewing through wheat flavored paste with a side of mushy meat. I had expected at least some spice from a Diablo burger, but one sad flavorless pepper was on top. The skinny fries were also mushy, with hardly any flavor. With so many burger options around, we will not be returning here. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]It's great, a little less greasy than most burger joints, and has a nice atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The salads are great and a nice compliment to the burger. They have a really nice section of burgers! read more

I have had good burgers here before but do not come on a Sunday for take out. There was so much grease on the curly fries and onion rings that the bag broke on the way home (which is only half a mile away). Fortunately there was a plastic bag around everything. I laid the fries and rings out on paper towels and soaked through four of them, then used the air fryer, and they were finally mostly edible if not very good. So much for making dinner prep easy on a holiday. The burgers were okay but overcooked. Sixty bucks. Wendy's is looking good. read more

Food was actually pretty good. I ordered Drunken burger and spicey curley fries. However, the service was not great. It was just me. I was told to sit anywhere. It started to get busy. Sat there for 5+ minutes and had to stop one of the servers to take my order. It appeared that the waiter didn't cover my area, stating he'll send someone else. Took another 2-3 minutes for the other server to come and take my order. The food did come out promptly. However, not once did any server come by to check up on me. I finished my meal. Again, I waited for someone to come by so I can get a box to-go. A different server noticed I was looking around. She stopped by, asking if I needed anything. She came out with a box and bill, which was about $24. I gave (2) 20s. The server asked if I needed change. I, of course, said yes. There is no way I'd give $15 for this lack of service. I gave $3. I used to be a bartender and a server. I worked hard on customer service even when busy. I typically tip over 20%. But for the server to assume I'd give $15 for no service. No way. I'm pretty patient and empathize. But I do expect a few check-ins to make sure I'm doing ok. Food was great. Service significantly needs to improve. read more

Mona's Burgers and Shakes - Drunken Burger - Salad Near Me - Concord, California

Had lunch with the family today here for the first time. I had the cali burger which was delicious. Oldest had a bacon cheese burger and thought it was a little small. He finished my burger since he was still hunger. He said making the classic a double would work next time. The youngest had the Forget the Diet burger. I was shocked he eat the whole thing. He said it was so good but a little messy. Hubby had the Greek burger. He wished it was med rare so it was juicer. Needed a little more feta. Classic skinny fries were good, they came out before the burgers though. The Nolan fries we wouldn't get again. Very oily and just bacon cheese fries. read more

Walt here from Walt's Adventures! Monas Burgers. Granted I have not tasted every burger from every "burger joint" in town. Out of the vast majority that I have tasted, Monas Burgers are the best and you will agree when you taste their food. The burgers are the best ones in the East bay. Their curly fries look like any other curly fries from any other fast food place. However, their taste are far superior. Also, they have a good selection of wines and a vast selection of beers. Did I forget to mention their shakes? They are to die for. read more

$18 truffle burger with goat cheese. No trace of truffle whatsoever and a crumb of goat cheese. Absolute scam. Onion rings -meh. Classic burger added $3 bacon and I got one stale piece of bacon ripped up. Overall, I didn't care too much for the prices but don't rip people off. If it's a truffle burger there should be some kind of truffle in it wether it's actual truffle, truffle oil, truffle essence...something truffle! Then The goat cheese pissed me off, like where? Where my goat cheese at? At the same time I see my husband pulling out the bacon from his mouth saying it taste old and stale. LOL First and last. read more

Solid place for delicious burgers, friendly staff, and the best Nutella milkshake I have ever had. I stumbled across this when it took over the Italian restaurant over a year ago. I took a look at the menu and was delighted to see that it specialized in specialty burgers. 'Oh no, this is dangerous for me' I thought, while going to Trader Joes next door to get my groceries. During the beginning of COVID, they were able to have great outdoor dining. Their fantastic staff also provided a friendly atmosphere that really preserved the dining experience that everybody was looking forward to when eating out. It was also nice that you could grab a beer or a wine along with your meal (though I still prefer the Nutella milkshake). I came back, most recently, to place an order for two milkshakes. My significant other wanted to try the Birthday Cake, which had fun sprinkles in it that added a nice texture to the delicious and creamy shake. The flavor for that did taste just like vanilla though, so the flavor didn't seem as special. Nutella one had nice ribbons of Nutella drizzle in the shake and was delightful as always. It was a bit difficult to place the order over the phone. I heard another customer coming in and saying that they weren't able to get a hold of someone... but due to COVID, they are short-staffed with only one person in front and possibly one or two people in the kitchen. read more
