Returned for a meal , and was not disappointed. The service was quick and friendly! We were greeted as we walked in the door. The patty melts were wonderful ! I personally would prefer more sauce but that's just me . It did not detract and I just like extra ! The onions were perfect , not overcooked . The bread was so delicious and not soggy ! Onion rings and fries on the side cooked perfecto as well. Onion rings are definitely a favorite ( see my first review ). Chocolate shake thick enough to be a perfect shake, yet not difficult to drink with a straw. Will try the strawberry next. I ordered French toast for dinner . Same bread they used for pastille and it was amazing ! It is my current favorite French toast ! I can see parking getting crowded once people know this is here , and especially during the holiday when people order pie. Clean restaurants, with tables separated well. No crowding ! read more

My son said there was a grand opening for this restaurant so we thought we would check it out. 2 Cheeseburgers 1 Harvester 1 French Fries 1 Onion Rings 1 One-Egger 1 Oreo Shake The boys seemed happy with their Cheeseburgers but they were hoping they would be bigger because of the name of the restaurant. The onion rings were definitely big but the batter was too thick. The French fries and Oreo shake were pretty good. The Harvester was surprisingly good for a veggie burger. I'm glad they used whole wheat for the bun. The One-Egger was a disappointment. The linguica was good but there was only a small portion of it and the rest of the dish didn't have much to eat. The service is friendly but there is only one cashier and it just feels like if there are any crowds it will be quite slow. Overall I think we would rather drive to In-N-Out but it is nice that we could walk to this restaurant. read more

I had not been to a nation's burgers in years so when this will opened up just a couple of days ago less than five minutes from my house I was so excited I don't necessarily remember from the nations. I went two years ago what the food was like, but it definitely left a positive memory. This nations opened up just a couple of days ago and I was so excited to go try it so it started with using the app because we were going to pick it up and needed at home. The app was a little bit confusing because for the hamburgers, it showed all the ingredients that it came with and then there was some drop-down options. Well, my husband did not want the raw onions. He wanted the grilled ones. We checked the box that said no onions and then went on the box with the add-ons. I checked grilled onions so I don't know if I was confused or they were confused long story short he didn't get any onions. This was not a dealbreaker because I was thinking well maybe it was me and how the app worked. I ordered a lettuce, wrapped Alaskan salmon sandwich, and then I decided to get pie because I was all excited about being able to get a pie at a burger place and order a piece of peach pie. Order it didn't take that long. When my husband got there it was ready to go unfortunately he didn't check the order when he got home. He didn't come home with my Alaskan salmon. He came home with another burger that simply had just cheese and two pickles on it there was obviously a mixup. I had a couple bites of the hamburger and I didn't finish the rest because I don't eat all that bread and the hamburger was just OK not much flavor. They talk about a sauce they put on it but I didn't get to taste it so I can't comment on that. The peach pie came in a clear plastic container and it looked to me like somebody who had cut the pie might've just recently touched something with some sort of whipped cream or frosting because that was on the container now it didn't concern me enough that I wasn't gonna taste the pie, but it's just one of those little things in the food industry that shouldn't be there. The peach pie was horrible way too sweet, and it seemed like it had more of the jelly filling than it did of the peaches. I did call the manager who was very nice and told her about the disorder and she was kind enough to just give us a refund, but even with her kindness, I was disappointed with the hamburgers and the pie french fries were just OK. Will not be going back. read more

Cute new shop they opened, welcoming staff a friendly! Great food and delicious options had the opportunity of ordering my family, a double burger, one regular cheese cheeseburger, and one chili cheeseburger. Along with a chocolate pie, which was beyond delicious did not get a chance to take a shot of the pie cause it was eaten so fast by the family very light without giving you the heaviness of a pie. The burgers are amazing. They are a little pricey, but I have to say of all the burger places you can go. This would definitely be a top five left full. A must try!! read more

Not sure what was going on at Nation's this morning my son picked up breakfast and he became sick to his stomach. please do not start this with your newly opened restaurant that was all he ate today and he is not feeling well after eating at this establishment. Please make sure the food is properly being stored and prepared including your grill cleaning. It's not a very good first impression on the newly open place. I for sure will not be eating here definitely not and my son said he will never eat at this nation's restaurant again. read more

I'm so happy they opened up a nations this side of the Bay! Their burgers are delicious and their pies are a little slice of comfort! The customer service was on point the lady taking our order was really nice, we got 2 cheese burgers and side of fries and onion rings, the onion rings are minus the 1 star they lacked flavor and the coating was too heavy and more bread like than the usual crunchy light and airy batter. We didn't get drinks but they have shakes, also ample parking! Nice seating area too! Give them a shot if you're in the area and want a really yummy old fashioned burger! read more

This location opened recently, and we decided to give it a try. I've never been to Nation's, and I admit that when it comes to burgers, I'm rather picky. I was underwhelmed with Nation's. First off, it's a burger with barely melted American cheese (no option for cheddar). Yes, OK, some will fight me on this, but I'm holding firm that cheddar is the way to go. We ordered the bacon cheeseburger, and also a regular cheeseburger, both with fries. The burgers may be large in circumference, but they are flat and dry - reminiscent of a Mc-you-know-what. I loved the fresh lettuce and the fresh tomatoes. You can even get your burger in a lettuce wrap, which is pretty cool if you're not doing carbs. The french fries were hot, but lacking seasoning. The condiments offered are ketchup, mustard, and BBQ sauce. No mayo or relish. I had to ask for the mayo because I belong to the small group of people who prefer mayo with fries instead of ketchup (don't laugh, it's really good). Our two meals were served on one small tray, so we had to ask for plates. If you want to cut your burger in half, I guess you have to ask for a knife, too. So, overall, not my kind of burger place. But it was new, and we gave it a try. On to the next. read more

Five star for location, cleanliness, ease of locating and proximity to the freeway. I did not know they were open, but my family and I will be stopping in this weekend to give them a shot. If it's like other nations locations, there should be no problem with our experience. Food review to come shortly. read more

The two ladies in the front were so sweet and understanding that it was our first time! That bumped up the review a lot!! Food was mediocre and good for the price we paid but what really brought down the review is that we had asked for a side of strawberries but did not expect to get two small smuckers containers for the price we had paid which was $5.15 read more

Nation’s - Burgers Near Me - San Jose, California

Food was good but the wait was WAY too long. Ordered at 12:23 pm, got my food at 1:08 pm. I ordered a hamburger and a cheeseburger. I understand Sundays/weekends are busier in general, but I hope they'll improve things (perhap more staffing, or a better work flow in the kitchen to make the food come out faster) so this is not the case the next time I come. I do like the food, so I don't want this experience to be a reason that I don't return. read more

I really enjoying their chili, it's different but so good. Their burgers are ok and their banana, lemons and lime pies are my favorite. It's about $55+ for two full means with dessert. read more

Not the same as it was when I was a teenager. The chocolate pie filling was extremely thin. Its not for me But I wish them well read more

I have always Loved Nation's! I have the best memories of taking my kids there to enjoy a hearty breakfast together that was affordable, with real food that was delicious! Generous servings, definitely a staple in the community. We just ordered the COWBOY BURGER and SOUTHWEST CHICKEN SANDWICHES. Yum! A definite must try, and don't forget the pie! read more

I came to this location on August 23, 2026, at around 9 p.m. This was my first and only experience at Nations, and unfortunately, it was a terrible one. When I walked in, I wasn't greeted or acknowledged by anyone at the front. I ordered two meals, and the total came out to around $60. That was way too overpriced for what we received. The burgers were extremely simple and definitely not worth the price. Overall, I was very disappointed with the service, food, and value. Unfortunately, based on my first experience, I definitely won't be coming back. read more

We heard they have great pies, so stopped by this new location which is fairly close to our home. We chose a booth by the window. The table and the floor were both dirty; in trying to clean the table we spilled the water. One of the staff came with a rag to mop up the table, then returned with a mop to get the floor. She mopped up the water, but the splat of dirt/food from earlier was still there. We ordered two bacon cheeseburgers with grilled onions, and one chocolate shake. The burgers were dripping after a few bites, and the buns just disintegrated at that point, so it was impossible to eat. We both removed our tomatoes, but they weren't the problem. We finished the shared shake, and dumped the hamburgers. We didn't notice if cheddar cheese was even an option, but the default cheese was American cheese. We're not fans of American cheese. We didn't try the pie; we just wanted to leave. Overall, we were disappointed. The shake was okay, but pricey. We'll not be back for burgers; might try pie someday. read more

A diner classic. I got coupons to get me here. I ordered one blueberry pie and a chocolate pie, buy one get one for $1. A slice is a quarter of a pie $6-7. The chocolate pie has lots of whipped cream on top. The blueberry pie is a cheesecake with a thin layer of blueberry topping. Getting only pies are not meant to be dining for. Need to order entrees for a good combo. The tables are not frequently cleaned until customers are gone. More attention is on the kitchen. read more
