Large portions! Single burger was a monster with lettuce, tomato, pickle, red onion, bacon, cheese, an sauce. Huge order of well cooked fries. I love their thin fry sauce! Topped it off with a nice thick root beer shake! read more

It's a cool old place with very good service. It has great fried stuff like fish and chips, and the prawns and chips, wonderful burgers and fries, and a lot of the Asian food is good, like the short ribs. However, the teriyaki is low quality chicken. With too much sauce and the milkshakes are huge. However, not very good either. Use some kind of cheap ice cream or ice cream substitute or something cause just tastes really light airy. And not rich and creamy, at all. read more

Great variety of everything! I like the chicken katsu. The jalapeño burger is also amazing. read more

A Tacoma/Lakewood Treasure! Monster Burger has been a staple in this area for many years and is loved by tons of locals. I have been twice with colleagues and I was impressed both times. Ambiance: You can expect it to be steadily busy during lunch time with lots of carry out orders. There are 6 tables available for dine. Food: Don't be fooled! They have way more than burgers. I've had the monster burger which was good but I also have had the monster yakisoba which was phenomenal!! I highly recommend trying their gyoza as well. My colleagues raved about the Philly Cheesesteak and the milkshakes. Service: You can expect a respectful and kind encounter when your order and when your food is ready. This place is crazy efficient and super fast! I can't wait to go again. read more

Monster Burgers - This is the monster burger meal! 10/10 Worth my $20 lol - American Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

Burgers are OK, short ribs are questionable at best. If you tip more you get more food. Seriously, I can't make this up. Service was quick but I question if she enjoys her job. Ambiance is horid. In the winter is super cold, in the summer is super hot. I get it a penny saved as a penny earned but talk about being cheap. Last but not least is the rice, I wonder if it's yesterdays rice. Burgers are the only thing I would get from here. Everything else is questionable at best. read more

Monster Burgers - Short rib... - American Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

Came in while my truck was being serviced down the street. I was the only one there when I went in. Food came out fast and fresh. Price was fine. It wasn't a memorable meal but it hit the spot. Just about average in every respect. read more

It's a quiet spot and clean. The best fries in Tacoma, the very kind girl. and they don't let you wait long.

Always good ! Best fries in Tacoma - LOVE this little burger hut ! If you haven't had a Philly steak lately this is the spot too ! Delicious !!! read more

First and last time coming to this place. Ordered Mushroom burger: 7/10 Fish and chips: 3/10 (fish didnt taste like fish at all) Shakes: 5/10 strawberry & mint was disgusting. French Fries: 7/10 The French fries sauce was way too salty. The food is over priced not worth it. Food did came out fast though read more

Dropped by for a quick snack - employees were super friendly, food service was fast & tasty and a wow what a good price! Will be back again some day read more

I have driven past this place for a few months and always thought it would be nice to stop in, it looks exactly like the place that would have good burgers... Well these aren't just good, they are GREAT. The monster burger was probably the best burger I ever had. My wife got orange chicken and my daughter got a chicken sandwich, all of it was great. I am honestly mad at myself now knowing how good they are that I drove past for months and missed all the months I could have been eating this food. read more

The place was very clean. I was surprised after reading about it. The people who run it were very friendly too. And the burger I had was delightful and affordable. I can't say it was the best, but that's hard to find. But I would definitely recommend it and the menu is bigger than just the burger I had. I'm looking forward to trying the other offers. read more

I got a burger and fries and it was horrible. Never going back. Burger had several pieces of gristle and got a couple hard pieces (bone?). Also the burger meat was very salty. The fries tasted like fish. I'm assuming cuz they deep fry the fish n chips into the same oil. Only reason I gave it 2 instead of 1 was because the staff were nice. So that's something I guess. read more

Still putting in work since my last visit. Worth a hungry man meal Service was good And the inside was clean read more

This is the best burger shop in all of Washington. I have a chart. It's better than Frugals, Out and About, Lucky's, Lefty's, Dick's, Pick Quick, In and Out, and especially Best Burgers. It's better than Boomer's and Five Guys and Kidd Valley. I obviously haven't tried every single burger shop but after stopping here you won't need to try another one. Also everything is very clean and the service is nice and polite. read more

I was stuck in an unfortunate time. Space continuum with car pros Kia down the street, and thought I need to get some food otherwise I would starve to death. I walked down to monster burgers, it is not very appealing from the outside, but my attitude was I didn't care if I had to cheat death or not, I was just hungry. They have a pretty good selection, the menu was very diverse, but I stuck with their signature burger, fries, and a drink. The food came pretty quick, and it was fantastic! Juicy burger, completely loaded up with the tomatoes and lettuce, the fries were crispy and delicious, and it completely filled me up. Fantastic food at a reasonable price, cheaper than the big burger chains, and service above and beyond. Big smiles, great food, I'm definitely coming back. Great job! read more

Very inexpensive and very fast. Great service. Would definitely recommend. They give you a ton of fries. My first time going there and I will definitely be a return customer. read more

Monster Burgers - Menu! - American Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

I've driven by this place a thousand times and finally decided to stop and give it a try. I came away feeling like I've found my new favorite burger place. The burgers are tasty with a reasonable price attached. I'll definitely be stopping here more often. read more

Prices listed are nowhere near the actual cost. Ranch Burger basket, Gyoza plates, Monster rice were all about $15+ per while their menu has -$10 prices. That being said, Fried Rice was "ok" compared to other local spots. Gyoza isn't served with Gyoza sauce or any dipping sauce which is a bit odd. White steamed rice was actually good! Lastly the Ranch Burger basket. Has nothing to do with ranch rather it's a Double Cheeseburger with fries. Which honesty compares to Herfys, Dairy Freeze and Patty's Burgers. That type of old school vibe. read more

The food tasted like burger king kinda burnt no real flavor at all, wouldn't recommend.

Stopped by here for our first visit a few days ago. Call in orders only and masks required at drive thru pick up window. Cheese sticks come with ranch, no marinara and were ok. Ordered mushroom burger which was big and delicious but could have used some seasoning and order of fries which was a lot more than we were expecting. Overall burger was good sides were just ok but for price and friendly service this place os worth a try. read more

Food is great but they only hand food out a small window and no discussion. A Little odd. read more

Place has gone downhill. Since you can't go inside they make you park and wait. And it is difficult to tell where to order from... The drive-through is covered in plastic and signs. They said 10 minutes. I waited exactly 10 minutes and my food was cold. Burger was below average at best. The only good thing about this visit was the fries. They serve a nice amount and it came with the sauce. read more

Really small portion on the teriyaki combo I got will not eat here again really disappointed also I had ordered a teriyaki combo of sweet and sour chicken with teriyaki chicken they over charged me and my order was wrong a little bit of Mongolian beef and sweet and sour chicken this place I will never visit and not say anything good read more

Been here years ago had a burger, dont remember which one. I think it was okay...couldnt have been too great if I havent come back until now. This time around I opted to try the Mongolian Beef...but also wanted to try the short ribs--they said we could combine them for a $2 up charge. We have several people in our party--so I tried some fried mushrooms, they were good. Tried some egg roll, not that great. Portions were rather small for the price. The food was mediocre, definitely better in the area. Refills are 50 cents each. Was scared to try the water after reading one review on here...lol. Will I return again...probably not. read more

I'm amazed that this burger and seafood and chinese food joint doesn't win best burger of the year every year in local rags. The Monster Burger is huge, but I almost always go for the Hawiian Burger with no bun (low carb) after years of having it with the bun and fries. Amazing flavor and completely satisfying. During the pandemic, the drivethrough window is how you get your food. Order by phone and pick up at the window about 10 minutes later. No losing a bunch with the old worn interior decorating... because you are here for one of the best burgers you will ever try. I've never had anything bad... even the "philly steak" at the bottom of the Chinese menu is fantastic... a real Philly... in Tacoma! read more

99.9 percent sure they gave me food poisoning of some kind. I'm following up with my doctor and health department in the morning. I see they have some recent violations also that I'm looking into. I ate there late Thursday afternoon on my lunch break. After an hour after being home I became very ill. This is not covid. I was vomiting and more for 2 going on 3 days now. I'm not one to point fingers but when you know you know. I've had food poisoning once before and I wouldn't wish what this place did to me on my worst enemy. Be careful with this place. Will update as I can. read more

Order the monster Burger it's me and my husbands go to. When the dining was open the inside was very clean. We come here at least once a week. read more

Inside dining is closed. The person in the phone was borderline hostile. Prices on the menu do reflect what they actually charge. The fries were good. read more

we stopped by here and received surprisingly delicious food -- it's a real hole in the wall, like a shack-style place, but the food was fresh and cooked to order. we tried a cheeseburger with fries, and chicken sandwich with fries, and some onion rings. the onion rings were delicious, as were the sandwiches! the fries were okay, i wouldn't order them separately and i needed to add salt (i'm not normally that person), but the real stars were the burger and chicken sandwich. and the onion rings, since i am an onion ring fiend :) will return if in the area! read more

I came here based on the burger reviews and it did not disappoint! My burger was the 1/3 bacon burger the sauces were amazing, the meat had a great char broiled taste. I will definitely eat here again when in the area. If I could compare it to any other local burger, I'd say it's fairly similar to Frugal's, which is one of my favorite burger places. In regards to the Asian cuisine, I have no idea how good it is, but dem burgers be good yo! read more

I ordered their Fish and chips. Turned out to be $8.80 instead of the $4.99 they have advertised on the outside. It came in a big basket of fries and 3 tiny AND thin square pieces of thickly battered fish. Nope. Definitely not going back! read more

Monster Burgers - Outside sign - American Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

The burger was fantastic! I had the bacon mushroom burger. Lettuce, tomato, onion and pickles. My perfect burger. My husband got the chicken teriyaki with pot stickers. The teriyaki was dry and unimpressive compared to other teriyaki we have eaten. But, don't go for the Teriyaki, go for the burgers. Not the fries either. The fries were just plain Jane fries. The burgers are what you want. read more

Tried the egg rolls for the first time yesterday. Mmmmmmmmm! That is all...that's the Yelp. :)

Tried their fish and chips today, and so glad we stopped. Great price and delicious! Portions were good. Came with dipping sauces. Will be back! read more

Checked Yelp while waiting for oil change down the street. I am happy to confirm all of the five star reviews with one of my own. I was SUPER hungry and took a chance on the 2/3 lb. Monster basket and I was not disappointed. Not only is this thing gargantuan, it has the flavor to match. I could smell the char broiled beef as soon as I opened the bag. The bacon was plentiful and thick. There were so many mushrooms they were falling out with each bite. The fries were cooked to perfection. Looking forward to trying the halibut and chips with the next visit. EDIT: There is no drive-through. There is a window there but it is blocked. I asked about it inside and they said they have no plans to use that window as a drive-through. read more

Monster Burgers - American Near Me - Tacoma, Washington

The OPEN sign is lit up, though the lobby is locked. A sign directs customers to the drive-thru. At the drive-thru, no one seemed to be home, either. I pulled away. I'd planned to order a mushroom burger, but was afraid they'd take me too literally read more

These burgers are fantastic! Our favorite in town for sure, and very convenient. We also love the fried mushrooms. Easy on the budget and great service. read more

Order: 2/3 lb Monster Burger Basket, no ketchup, w/ a drink Burger Layout: Bun, White Cheese, Bacon, Mustard, Mayo, Tomato, Lettuce, Onion, Pickle, Sauteed Mushroom, Burger, Yellow Cheese, Burger, Yellow Cheese, Bun Cost: $10.20 Fries: Crinkle Cut When I think of a lot of my favorite music, it is usually has a whole host of influences that you can identify, but none are so prevalent in recordings that you feel that it's totally derivative of one above the rest. This is also the way I feel about the condiments of my latest treat, The Monster Burger. This burger comes piled high with all the normal veggie fixing, mustard, mayo, sautéed mushrooms, pickles, crisp thick bacon, two kind of cheese, and fire grilled burger patties. While there were a ton a strong flavors in the burger, they all balanced each other out and let you get a distinct taste each one as you bit through it. A couple notes about the individual flavors... the sauces being applied onto the lettuce and not one side of the bun makes for a sloppy experience. Leave the wrapper on half the burger or come with either a bib or shout wipes. All of the meat on the burger is fantastic, the bacon is thick and flavorful, and the burger stayed juicy despite being grilled. The fries were nothing to get excited about, but good for what they were. They also come with a fry sauce that is, sadly, mostly ketchup. What you can get excited about, however, is getting a side of Kimchi with your burger. 5/5 read more
