Excellent food and most times have some leftover for another meal. No inside sitting but the food is very good.....once you can get a feel of how to order with all meals being named after sports icons. read more

There are three places in Long Beach and I know where they all are. I hadn't been to one yet so I chose my first to be at the Stearns location. It's a completely outdoor seating restaurant with big tables on either side. The guys in the kitchen put out food pretty quick. We kept things simple and bought cheeseburgers. The Cajun dressing was an interesting touch, but pretty good. I haven't had something like that before so I'll try something else on their menu. My wife had the Cajun seasoning fries but felt like there was too much of them. She was happy with the result though. read more

Some real good burgers here. I love the names of them. The fries and onion rings were ok. I didn't try them til we got home so maybe they will be better fresh at the place for dine in. Other than that a solid 4 stars! read more

The MVP at this location is just perfect each time I eat here. The fries are plentiful, crispy, and tasty. They have vegetarian options as well. We loved it when we lived in Long Beach and now when we visit LB we make sure to stop by here! read more

MVP's Grill & Patio - Cajun Cheese Fries - Burgers Near Me - Long Beach, California

Gotta love a great local spot! Was in Long Beach to visit a friend and decided to stop by MVP's Grill & Patio. Was in the mood for a burger, so I went with The Fridge, which is a burger with pastrami and Swiss cheese. This was a legitimately great burger! Every burger comes with 1/3 lb patty, lettuce, tomato, Cajunaise dressing, and raw or grilled onions (I went with the grilled onions). You can definitely tell the quality of the burger is raised by the fresh ingredients and tasty meat. My friend ordered a Harry Careyclub Wins and a Jimmy Foxx. Had a bite of both and they were both great as well. Staff here are great, no complaints from me. Definitely a great spot for some casual eats! Would love to try some of the other items on the menu. read more

This place feels like stepping into an old-school burger joint in the best way possible. No gimmicks, just burgers that know what they're doing. I ordered the George Foreman V burger with fries, and it delivered. Classic, juicy, with a twist in the chipotle sauce gave it a smoky kick that made it stand out without trying too hard. Great portions too which hit the spot because I showed up hungry! The service was fine. Not overly chatty, but honestly that kind of adds to the old-school vibe. This place isn't here to impress you with small talk, it's here to feed you well. If you want a legit burger with a little personality, this is your spot. read more

A long-standing staple for the community. I've gone here since high school, went through college (csulb) going here... absolutely must try. The burgers have been consistently good and well portioned for YEARS. They're generous with their sizes for their burgers and their fries (a full order of fries can feed 3-4 people easily). The prices have unfortunately continued to go up, but that's expected with inflation. I'd still recommend it despite the price. Service is as good as you'd expect for a burger stand. Good, but don't expect fine dining service. You're ordering at a window, keep that in mind. There is only outdoor seating, which can be brutal in extreme weather. Still worth it though. The ambiance gets loud because you're outside, near a car repair shop, and also near the airport so planes are going to continue to fly over. It's great! I recommend this spot for a chill, laidback local burger joint. It's been a staple for Long Beach locals for years and will continue to be. read more

Great neighborhood spot for hearty burgers & good vibes! MVP Grill & Patio in Long Beach is the place to hit up for decent burgers and sandwiches. I came here on a weekend afternoon and was not disappointed. The menu is huge -- all the burgers named after famous athletes, which is a fun touch. I went with the Christian Ronaldo sandwich and it was juicy, fresh, and cooked perfectly. The Burger was decent but I find it lack in seasoning. The portions are generous, especially the fries -- you won't leave hungry! Their fries are crispy and seasoned just right, and the patio seating is laid-back and perfect for people-watching or hanging out with friends. Staff was friendly and the food came out fast even though they were pretty busy. Parking can be a little tight, but it's worth it once you get your food. Definitely recommend if you're in the area and want a chill spot for a burger, sandwich, or just to hang out. read more

Food is good, portions are generous, girl the counter who took our order was very kind. She brought us extra sauces and was overall friendly. We ordered the Cristiano Ronaldo pastrami and chicken sandwich with Cajun fries and a bacon cheeseburger (I forgot the name ) read more

MVP's Grill & Patio - Cajun fries with extra sauce on the side - Burgers Near Me - Long Beach, California

Solid greasy spoon corner. It hits the spot. Service is relatively quick and straightforward. Food is exactly what you would expect in a fast paced, down to earth spot like this: tasty but simple. It has a few tables that are comfortable enough in nice weather. The salads may be the healthiest option here but this isn't the type of place to dash for some healthy grub - just for those hole in the wall cravings... you know, like if you crave Pastrami or Corned Beef all of the sudden? Decent prices too. read more

Worst burger I ever had. I got the Mike Tyson the bread tasted terrible. Everything didn't taste good in it just had a really bad after taste ended up eating at Wienerschnitzel after. Two years ago, this place wasn't like that this place was actually good not sure what happened maybe a new owner. The only thing that was actually good was the fries and the ranch. read more

We tried this place for the first time. Got one carne asada burrito to share for three people just to try it. Then got another because it was so good. We also liked the warm tortilla chips. My mom liked the salsa and pickled veggies. The staff were super friendly! read more

I've been to all the locations and this one and the one on 4th street are terrible. 1st incident I ordered chili cheese fries and I was served uncooked fries and a cold burger. 2nd incident I decided to try this one the stearns location and again I was served a half uncooked bag of fries and the other half crispy. Terrible terrible food service. The food isn't the same like it once was when they were located on loma and 4th. After that they completely went downhill. I stopped going after not getting cooked food. Sad how my childhood spot isn't up to standards anymore. read more

First time here and I was desperately craving a good burrito that didn't cost me an arm and a leg. I happen to drive past MVP's Grill while heading to Trader Joe's and I stopped by hoping they'd have a burrito. I went in blind not knowing what they served and I ordered the Jorge Campos burrito with no beans. Omg it was absolutely delicious and the asada was nice and tender and great flavors. I look forward to going back and trying their breakfast burrito next! read more

Always a great experience whenever I'm here at MVP's! Absolutely one of my fav spots/locations in town to get a good fixin. I typically phone in my order to save some time & the service is always a plus! Staff are usually friendly & informative. Speaking from my personal experiences, the food always comes out fresh, delicious & most importantly, consistent! They also have a wide variety of sandwiches & burgers + more to choose from. My usual order is the Vitale sammy on toasted sourdough bread with a half order of their Cajun fries! More than enough for two people to share or for one verrrry hungry human lol *don't forget to add a side of their Cajunnaise sauce!* Cajun seasoning + mayo? so amazing! So if you're looking for a new place to try, I highly recommend MVP's! Bring the crew & fam! :) read more

It's good food that filled me up. It's outdoor seating only, the place is clean and there's plenty of parking. It's nice to eat outside when the weather is perfect. The service was excellent and food came out fast. I ordered the George Foreman 3 and fries with cajun seasoning. The portions are huge. The fries are big and they gave me a lot and I couldn't finish it. The burger was also big. It was a big meal. It's good, but it's just another burger joint. I'd probably try the other items on the menu. read more

I know this place is a Long Beach local classic and you get a good portion of food for the price. It's not that it's bad at all, but it's just nothing great. There are much better burgers out there, but this is a perfectly fine "fast food" style burger. Nothing to write much about and the main reason I would say for points is the fact that it is a true Long Beach staple. read more

Came here because the restaurant I was headed to was closed. Searched on yelp what else was around the area and came up with this location that used to be a tasty freeze back in the old days. I was definitely surprised, will definitely go back and I had the Mary Lou Retton sandwich which was out of this world. read more

The taco was disappointing, didn't have a good taste to it. Tortilla was also dry and stale. Didn't like how I ate there and had to pay for a new drink for a refill on the fountain drink. I don't enjoy the customer service at all MVP lost my respect as a loyal customer. I have been supporting MVP since they opened on 4th street many years ago. read more

Decent cheeseburgers with a classic cookout taste. I came here and got their cheeseburger (I forgot which one it was on the menu as it's extensive) and their chili fries. The chili fries were ok they weren't exactly chili fries it was just beans and ground beef. Was dry but still enjoyed. The cheeseburger however was very good thick angus patties and felt comforting. This seems to be a local favorite if you grew up here and I can see why. Thank you! 7.7 mukbang up on @maarrjack for more read more

This place is awesome. I've always overlooked it when driving by or going to Hofs Hut. After a very long bike ride with my triathlon buddies we went here. We were starving. Omg! It was incredible. I have been returning on my own many times. The burgers and sandwiches are my favorite items on the menu but there's plenty to choose from. Don't let the crowd or long lines intimidate you, the service is quick and calling in your order is faster. You guys rock behind the counter!! Thank you! read more

George Foreman V with Bacon extra crispy . Regular order of Regular fries. Yummy! Service is always good. Ambiance outside sitting only but I usually order ahead go pick up go back home watch a good movie or show. Also a good spot to take visitors. Many choices even vegan or vegetarian options. read more

I love mvp grill! If you want some amazing sandwiches/burgers this is the spot for you! Christiano Ronaldo, shaq, Michael Jordan.... so many amazing choices at this place. The cajanaise sauce is what gets to you! It works well with everything! Fries and onions rings too. And best way to make a sandwich better: ADD AVOCADOS!!! Add avocados in their burgers or sandwiches, you are GOLD! I don't know why it has taken me so long to review this place since I have been going here for awhile. So if you are wondering why not a 5 star for such a great place? It's outdoors only. The food takes awhile sometimes. Please don't come hangry! From what I remember it is cash only but don't quote me on that. I think they could have started accepting cards. Other than that, excellent food! Definitely MUST TRY!!!! read more

I decided to treat myself to lunch on a friday afternoon at MVP Grill since I wanted a burger. I drive by this place on a daily basis and there are typically a few folk eating here. Unfortunately for me there was some construction going on that day so I had a hard time navigating how to enter the parking lot but I did manage to get there at some point. It's a relatively small parking lot so I suggest either walking here or parking somewhere on the street. I ordered a hamburger combo and after tax it was $15, for me that's pretty average for lunch nowadays. I waited about 10-15 minutes for my order and it got pretty busy after that. The burger was massive, definitely worth the price. The fries were fresh but I got regular seasoning and didn't think there was anything too special about it. Next time, I will try cajun seasoning on the fries. I really liked that they gave me pickled carrots, something I've never seen before but really enjoyed. read more

Amazing food! Love coming here. Their fries are large enough to share between 3-4 people and I love their onion rings!

Great selection fast service no ambiance but large serving sizes and every time I go back I get something different and it's always good

This place has the best and most delicious sandwiches, burgers and salads around. Everything on the menu is a home run, and don't forget the Cajun fries. Also the best kitchen staff around, thank you guys for feeding the hungry read more

You have to go here. The burgers are great and the Cajun fries are the best. Honestly just get any burger because they are all fantastic. I prefer the George Forman 5. Service is pretty fast considering how many people all up and order. It's our door seating only and a great place if you are at the park or doing some shopping. There is no need for mood lighting here, you'll be so focused on the food that ambiance doesn't matter. Look, we do this thing without of state family where we take them to sake shack, In-N-Out, and MVP to figure once and for all who makes the best burgers. Everyone ALLWAYS picks mvp. Seriously, just go. read more

I've been coming here since my college years back in 2016. I finally came back recently and it has never changed! This place never disappoints. All their burgers are amazing, juicy, and always a big portion. Fries are very thick and crispy. So far I have tried all of their George Formans and some sandwiches. It was nice to finally come back for a visit. 10/10 would recommend their burgers. read more

Just thinking about their burgers makes me drool. The best tasting burgers I've ever had. The fries, especially Cajun fries, NEVER MISS. The staff are very chill and friendly. The service is fast. The outdoor only seating is perfect for a casual hangout. One time, I got their takeout and ate the burger in my car while parked at their parking lot just watching the sunset. 10/10 experience. read more

One of my favorite places however they have a new policy. No credit card payments for anything under 10 dollars. Well sorry I don't carry cash and I don't want to buy extras just to meet a minimum. They don't even offer a service charge. This literally was not the case last week. read more

Food was not very good. Onion rings was bad. Cheeseburger bad. Service was ok but would ever go back again.

Super laid back and cool group of guys over here! Usually cooking food and watching the sports when I pop by and it gives an overall vibe. The same gentleman typically takes the orders and the food is usually seasoned exactly the same when I order so there is an overall consistency that I like here. Usually here a couple times a month and will continue to do so! read more
