    Our go to place when it comes to big juicy burgers and delicious fries. You cannot go wrong with a combo here at Paul's.

    The counter

    I came here w a friend since they have a wide variety of different opinions and we wanted choices as I wasn't totally sure what I was in the mood for. Really friendly staff. Ambience was loud. We found a booth inside and they had plenty of seating both inside and outside. Maybe we just happened to be here when it was super busy...(lunchtime on a Tuesday.) Food was freshly made. I got the chicken gyro and the yogurt sauce was tasty. The pita was nice and fluffy. Pretty good for place that makes a little bit of everything.

    Been coming here for years. Prices have gone up but what hasn't. We enjoy the weekend breakfast (they end at 1pm) along with the usual burgers and greek chicken salad Yummy choices are breakfast combos or country fried steak, pancakes, and fries or has browns. Service is meh.

    If you're craving a burger that gives you the "made at home" taste, this is a good place to try. I got a bacon burger , which was very tasty and fresh. The fries were freshly made. I give it a solid 8/10.

    Something has changed, maybe it's just the pre-pandemic memory of what used to be, but it's not the same as it used to be. Food: Still good, small things have changed, the items not quite the same level as they used to be, the prices more than I would hope. Still good, but... Service: Still just as friendly as ever, they have a good staff at this location. Ambiance: Still plenty of seating and a clean atmosphere. In all it meets our needs. :)

    Very disappointed with the pricing. Two hamburgers, two fries, onion rings and sweet potato fries ...totaled $44.12 which seems excessive. Being charged extra for ranch on top of that was frustrating. There are better value options nearby like Volcano or In-N-Out. Sadly, I won't be returning.

    Gyro salad  Blt sandwich and fries
    Stephanie R.

    My go to everytime I'm near one. Gyro salad or the blt sandwich or maybe both!! LOVE Paul's place

    Very tasty and a lot of meat . Will come back again

    It's very tasty . The pastrami had a lot of meat it also . The place is very clean . Will come again

    Chicken burrito

    The food is always top-notch when I come here, the drive-through does take a minute, but that's what you get when you get fresh food made when you order. The people are always friendly and the seating is usually always open. The food is a little on the pricier side but again that's what you get for the quality of food they provide. DELICIOUSNESS.

    Disappointing fish and chips I want to puke!
    Meliza S.

    I ordered a avocado burger with zuchini fries and fish and chips dinner with 2 large Pepsi the zucchini wa so small and overly battered. The fish and chips is 3 pieces of fish nuggets and old fries. Very disappointed.

    Deep fried mushrooms. Grill ham and cheese sandwich (wrapped in wrapper) hubby had a hot dog and a chef salad.

I understand why they use a stick with a key to use them but the sanitary function of that is already a minus for me. Food: quite expensive for what I got!!!!honestly way below Average, they recommended the patty melt and it was subpar to say the least, very greasy and un flavorful, too much cheese I couldn't finish both half's when normally I do at any other place. The fry's were ok. The fountain drinks, very messy and not clean Staff: very welcoming and helpful, fast service. Seating area: many places to sit mostly booths ,again aesthetically not very pleasing but looked clean and plenty of space to sit. I risked it and tried this place out of no recommendation other than stopping by and I don't think I will Be back. Maybe some of their other items are good but I will pass on this place. Great staff though. I have moved this up to 3 stars solely because the response to my feed back was well received and that alone speaks highly of making an attempt to help their restaurant to be better. The goal is not to just criticize or review for the sake of reviewing but to actually help businesses and which comes full circle both for customers and business owners. Thanks to the reply I may give it another shot for the burgers if I am in the area and in hungry!

From the jump, my friends and I felt so welcome, all thanks to our man Jake, who so attentively took our order. This man was such a vibe and provided top-tier customer service in spite of being short staffed. He always had a smile on this face and handled everything so well, especially the 11pm rush that came shortly after we ordered. I can write so much more about him, but he honestly set the stage for what I think of the best dining establishments I've ever been to. Shoutout Jake! The food? No notes. It was tasty, scrumptious, divine, exquisite, all of the above. That food was made with love and care -- shoutout to the kitchen staff! I got the crispy chicken sandwich and woah, what a revelation! Eggplant on the sandwich? Such a game changer, like some next level stuff here honestly. My friend got a burger and oh my god, I only had one bite, but it was honest to god one of the best burgers I've ever had in my life. My other friends got chicken tenders. Tender doesn't just describe the chicken but also the souls who prepared and served this amazing platter. They honestly put every other chicken tender I've had to shame, I'm afraid I won't ever have another chicken tender without comparing it to YoYos. Sides were scrumptious and the sauces that came with them were so good too. I don't know how they did it, but the soft drinks had something special too. Nothing disappointed, I'm telling you! I wish I took more photos of the food but it was just so good that I didn't have time for that. I had such an emotional experience eating here, and I wasn't under the influence or anything -- it was just that good! I could preach to the choir and write a whole song (maybe album) about how amazing my experience was here. It was so magical, I nearly cried thinking about how lucky I was to eat here and break bread with friends. I live in west LA and I would honestly drive however long it takes, even in traffic, just to eat here again. It was simply that good. It's one of those places that you just can't gatekeep because I honestly think a visit here would heal so many traumas and bad days. This was the perfect end to a day with friends, and I will be coming back sometime soon. You will not regret coming here, I guarantee it! If you do, I just think you're lying for clout because I firmly believe this place could not disappoint anyone! P.S. just in case I didn't highlight Jake enough, I need everyone to know that he is the man! The experience would be nothing if it weren't for him. P.S. again: if I were on death row or another situation with a "last meal" type of arrangement, YoYos would need to be a part of that final meal so that I could die so happy and enlightened

    Unsafe Conditions, Dismissive Management & Unnecessary Security Call…read more I was dining at Thirty Acres Kitchen inside the Knott's Hotel when water started dripping directly from the ceiling onto me. There was also standing water on the floor with no wet floor signs, barriers, or any warnings whatsoever. This was a clear slip-and-fall hazard in a busy restaurant. I calmly brought it to the attention of the manager on duty, Julie, and pointed out how dangerous it was--especially for guests using wheelchairs or with mobility needs, this was particularly concerning. Instead of addressing the problem, she dismissed it as "not a big deal," refused to complete any incident report, gave me a negative attitude with a mean facial expression, and then called security on me as if I was the problem. When the young security guard arrived, he asked for my ID. I politely refused and explained the situation calmly--he looked surprised but not defensive. I have photos documenting the ceiling leak, standing water, and lack of signage. This experience was disappointing and unsafe, especially from a hotel restaurant attached to a family theme park. Management should prioritize fixing hazards and training staff to handle legitimate guest concerns professionally rather than escalating them. I hope Knott's / Six Flags investigates and improves. This was my first time coming to this restaurant.

The order process was pretty simple -- I responded to their Instagram story and they reached out with follow-up questions, menu options, and pickup details. The pickup was from a home residence in the city of Garden Grove (off of Brookhurst Street and Hazard Avenue), nearby Pho 79 if you're familiar with the area. The exact address is provided with your order! The owner, Aamir, was very friendly and professional when I picked up my food and the burgers were packaged very neatly in separate boxes. I ordered two smash burgers that included three patties each, which cost $15 per burger. They included caramelized onions and jalapenos, which were a delightful surprise. The patties were a little salty, but upon reading the other reviews, I see that the owner pre-marinates the patty meat. The prices were also steep for just the burger, and I thought my order would come with fries on the side, but that doesn't take away from the quality of the food. All in all, I would return for future orders and would love to see them open a brick-and-mortar restaurant someday, ideally in Garden Grove still. 10/10 rating and five stars all around for a seamless ordering experience, delicious food, and timeless customer service.

The owner is super responsive, and you can tell he wants to provide the best service possible. During this special pop-up event, they were serving two's a tango that features their warm brioche bun along with two halal patties smashed with cheese and carmelized onions on top. The burger itself was massive, with one being more than enough to feed a hungry person. After talking to the owner, he mentioned he pre-marinates his meat, so that could be the reason why the taste was a little salty for us. The sauce is awesome and complimentary, so when ordering, if you don't plan on eating the burger right away, to prevent sogginess, ask for extra on the side. I know some people prefer the meatiness, but I am a sauce type of girl. Overall, the flavors of the burger meshed well! Thank you for adding another place for halal goodness. I'm hoping you guys do well and keep quality up.
