Wow! I had their avocado bacon cheese burger and chili cheese fries and everything about the food was great! It was fresh, hot, delicious! :) Honestly, one of the best burger places in Highland Park, better than Tommy's and any other fast food corporate joint around. Karla took my order and everything about her made the experience awesome, definitely can't wait to come back! read more

Overall 3/5 Stars Service was quick on a Friday at lunch time, they were really kind and friendly. I felt welcome, and the ordering experience was positive. I spent $22 for a grilled chicken sandwich and onion rings. It was a bit pricey but they did give a ton of onion rings. The grilled chicken sandwich was excellent! Hot, fresh, and flavorful. I could taste the char flavor on the chicken. The onion rings, however, fell very flat. While they were super generous with portions, the breading was very heavy and grainy, and severely lacking any sort of flavor. The breading could have used some salt or some sort of seasoning, and the onions were quite bland. For $9 I would not order again. I would come back for the sandwiches/burgers! read more

They still have stellar fries. Skip the taquitos, they look like what you'd find in the frozen aisle. And yes, the bacon in the bacon cheeseburger is delicious. read more

The avocado toast was a small portion, for 16 dollars one slice of toast seems too expensive. The taste was underwhelming, the menudo broth was bland and flavorless. I wish I could say it was better I'd been wanting to try this place for a long time but probably won't be back. read more

Love places like this. You get exactly what you expect to get and it's filling and satisfying! Lady at the window super friendly. You get a lot of food.

What a good burger! Had the perfect amount of char. Veggies were fresh and crispy. Overall the burger was not greasy! The fries had great texture but lacked flavor (idc I always use ketchup anyway). Great service and the people here are soooo nice! I wasn't able to take a picture because I ate it too fast. I actually didn't mind sitting outside with the traffic noise but there is an inside area for seating as well. read more

After visiting my mom at the Montecito Heights Healthcare and wellness center for couple hours I was very hungry and trybto think were to eat. I decided to go to Penny's Burgers in Highland Park not far from the center. It too me couple of minutes traveling on Figueroa Ave to the corner of York blvd where Penny's Burgers. I park in the shopping center where the 99 center and Big 5 located. When I arrive there it already lunch time and the lunch crowded comes in for lunch.

Then I decided to get a club sandwich combo comes with fries and soda and choice of bread I choice wheat bread. Instead. I waited for to call my name they brought my meal to the table. My club sandwich looks very good with wheat bread then I took a bite,the club was really good. The club was big for it size that's a sandwich I ate the half but the fries were very good I enjoy it. I took my meal home the foodvat Penny's Burgers incredible good. The staff are very friendly next time I have choice a different item. read more

Been going here on and off for years and never disappoints. Awesome avocado bacon cheeseburgers and the chilli fries are to die for!

$18-$20 for omelets, which for fast food quality was too much. The quality of their chili is lacking and the food overall was meh. Lady at counter was very nice though. read more

It's crazy to say that I have been living up the street from Pennys for the past 5 years and I just had my first burger from there. And boy can I tell you I have def been missing out. The place itself is a small restaurant with both inside and outside sitting it's nothing fancy but that def makes it feel more homey. Everytime I pass by there's a line just to order, I went on a Saturday night which seems to be on the busier side but even then I didn't have to wait too long. My fiance and I both ordered the classic burger- and it was delicious. It has the perfect char taste to it I was kinda bummed that they had ran out of lettuce but hey I did go towards the end of the day and running out of something could only mean a good thing. I did love their transparency instead of just lying about it and letting me find out only after receiving my burger. Extra brownie points for that. So now to the nitty gritty the food was amazing. They give you a good amount of fries that you could honestly share and still have left overs. They are the perfect crisp and seasoning. So let me tell you those fries are fire! I will def recommend it if you are in the area and they have a variety of options from breakfast plates to burgers, sandwiches and tortas! read more

The breakfast burrito with a side of fries well done here is my go to! To me the burrito has the perfect ratio of everything and perfect to share! The staff is always really friendly, would definitely recommend a try! read more

Pennys Burgers has been a staple for Highland Park for many years and is always a good option when you're hungry. From cheeseburgers, menudo or breakfast burritos, items on the menu do not disappoint. Service has always been good here and rarely have any errors in the orders. Inside seating is nice and clean as is the outside dining patio. Restroom could be nicer but is clean for the most part. read more

Penny's isn't anything amazing, but if you are looking for this kind of place (think Tams, Troy Burger, etc.), it's one of the best. Huge variety of food and breakfast served all day. My go-to is the Carne Asada fries with beans added. There fries are always great! Make sure to get a side of ranch. read more

Penny's is family owned & operated and has been in Highland Park since 1969. The menu features classic American fare & traditional Mexican dishes. Back in the day, my friends and I would stop here after school for French Fries & Onion Rings. I don't eat fast food but occasionally I need an Onion Ring fix, and Penny's hits the spot. Their onion rings are bomb! Especially, when dipped in their house ranch dressing. The fries are also very tasty - soft inside with a slightly crispy exterior. And the seasoning...so addicting! (They also go great with ranch too!) PIC likes their BLT & Burgers as well as their breakfast combos & chilaquiles. The portions are generous. *Inside dining area and outdoor seating. *Parking in the lot behind the restaurant. read more

Honestly this place is a vibe. I love that they separate the diner area from the ordering area that way you don't feel so awkward ordering to go in front of a whole restaurant. On the corner of a shopping center, this cute little burger joint has a massive menu. That range is American breakfast food to home style Mexican meals. The lady's that worked there were so nice and took our order really fast. I got the regular cheese burger and my bf got the bacon avocado one. We also got a side of onion rings. The burgers are MASSIVE. They are so round and wide. I loved it because I was craving a smash burger and this had the same style. The meat is very thin but so so good. All the food was really good but I would not recommend their onion rings. The onions were way too thin and the crust tasted stale for some reason. Overall though it really is a nice little spot! read more

Penny's... I've been coming here since 1978 and since then which is over 40 years ago I have always been satisfied nonetheless. Coming here is a true statement of Old School Burgers and after all these decades they still remain intact. Thats what a good business is about especially the food, this isn't a 5 Star Restaurant in Beverly Hills like Spago but Penny's has some of the best food in town it's always good and one can't complain about getting some good Burgers and Fries. However they have a menu that has everything you want from Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner, especially the Plates are always good and made right. I certainly miss my old pass time but when I'm in town Penny's is my first stop to come and have a good meal. Thanks Penny's for still being there after all these years! I'll never forget when I first came here back in the 70's and now 45 years later you still are my favorite place to come. Take Care. Wes. read more

First let me say have not been here in years! We ordered the carne asada torta and the bread was fabulous. The meat was tasty. It reminded me of the spot in front of lincoln high back in the day. Would have been even better with avocado and green sauce. I did order one to go and added my 2 items. I would go back just for the tortas. Sorry no pick, i ate it all. read more

Penny's is where you go when you're feeling lonely... on a cold winter day... Grabbed me my Double Cheeseburger just cheese... cause I like the flavor of that patty w extra cheese... American of course...has to be American .. if you say nothing ... it will be... The fries are extra crispy... on request...eat them quick cause they will get soggy fast ...and there will be no one to help you later....unless you throw them in the oven at 400 degrees for another 10 min.... Go ahead and throw your burger in there too for a reheat... it'll toast the bun a bit but will come out super duper!!! This was a pick up order from DoorDash... I was taking advantage of a $40 credit because I ordered from Happy Chinese and they forgot the egg rolls so they refunded me THE WHOLE MEAL! So w half that credit I decided to pick up w Door Dash at Pennies... and saved me a Penny! Or Two! Or three!!! Here's the trick ... order from Happy Chinese for delivery... don't tip the house only the driver... then they'll purposely not give you your entitled free egg roll for each Combo meal that you ordered probably cause they feel entitled to be tipped for a pick up order ...which is a big no no in my book....... then you got to DoorDash and let them know what happened ... "I didn't get my egg rolls!" !!! they refund you the whole $40 !!??... amazing right ... !? Customer is always right... But this only works ... if they actually try to mess with you at Happy place when they don't get a tip and for what!? Why should they for pick up!? Anyhoo... if they get mad and decide to not give you your free egg roll... you know how to handle your biz and feed the fam! lol I went to Penny's and Chanos on my Door Dash credit ! Thanks Door Dash!!! I'm Real Happy Now!!! Happy Chinese was making me sick anyway... too much oil... Oh! I almost forgot ... Penny's has the most amazing Zuchini fries... they were so good!!!! And they give you a boat load of them... Eat up read more

Very good burgers, love the charbroiled taste. The fries are good too. I don't live in the area but when my son has practice near by and we ware hungry we get burgers from here. read more

First of all I will say. Forget all stupid reviews with one star as you can read them. We don't live in the hood, just hungry on the way back home. Foods were so good, cashier was so nice, price is amazing. Serious!!! I haven't eat any burger that cheaper than $12, but In&Out this day. Huge fried and yummy. Need to improve the bathroom door. read more

The pricing for a burger and fries was not bad compared to other places in the surrounding area. I would say that it is lacking in something when it comes to flavor. It is missing something that would elevate it to the next level. I do like that they always give an abundance of fries with each burger meal. The girls at the register were extremely friendly and helpful when trying to figure out what I wanted from the menu as they had many different options when it came to the choices. They have everything sandwiches to Mexican food to soups. I find that the smells of the chard burger will bring you in but the people are what get you to stay. Food is always hot and ready if its to-go or if its for here always delicious. read more

I've eaten at Penny's but never had their breakfast burrito. Yesterday I placed an order over the phone for a Sausage Breakfast Burrito. It was ready within 10 minutes. It was a good size burrito, I split it with my daughter. We both were full. It had eggs, sausage, cheese and hash rows. You can add on other things if you like for an additional charge. They are on the corner so parking is behind their restaurant. They have seating inside and out. The order window is outside. Over all Penny's food is always fresh and made to when you order it. It is a staple there in Highland Park. read more

This is the most disgusting cheeseburger combo I've ever had. On top of nasty, no hygiene. ...After years of passing by this place I decided to try it for the first time...but only after reading the several reviews of it...and the place convinced me. So I stopped by, paid for my order...people rave about the cheeseburgers, so I decided to keep it simple. I ordered the cheeseburger combo. So I am standing on the outside counter and kept an eye on the cook whom was walking back and forth cleaning up. He had the floor rug in his hands and kept going back and forth ...the grill was still bare. Next thing I see is he grabbed the lettuce, tomatoes etc. and started preparing them. He did not wash his hands, and did not wear gloves. I started getting disgusted. Had I seen this before I ordered, I would not have ordered. So the lady hands me the bag with my order. This what I got. Dry burned meat, rubbery cheese and soggy fries. Got to bites and then trashed it. First and last time. And these people are getting paid 20 an hour? When they don't have the common decency to watch their hands after handling floor rugs? read more

Highland Park staple, been coming here since Junior high in the 80's. Pastrami is my favorite, not as big as it used to be but still tasty and well seasoned. Not much as change but the prices but that's expected. The cheese burger special is also worth a try. read more

Penny's Burgers is a great spot for non-meat eaters. I ordered their veggie burger and thought it was absolutely delicious! I'm not sure if they make the patty themselves or buy it pre-made, but it was one of those veggie patties that are made with carrots, black beans and other vegetables. It paired well with the mayonnaise, tomatoes, onions, cheese and spinach (my burger didn't come with lettuce, it came with spinach instead). It was all sandwiched between delicious whole wheat buns! Now, the reason I docked a star on my review is because the fries were too salty. I'm a fan of salty fries usually but Penny's was wayyyy too generous with the salt on the seasoned fries they gave me. It made them almost not edible for me. Definitely a great place to check out if you're in the area, so I do encourage you to try it out if you're in Highland Park. There's plenty of parking since it's right in the sam plaza as the 99 Cent Store and AutoZone. read more

Been coming to Penny's since I was a kid. Small little spot on the corner of Fig & York- The food is great, they have many options to choose from & the staff is very friendly. You can't go wrong with their Cheeseburger & fries. The taste of a Charbroiled burger has to be my absolute favorite. The fries have a particular seasoning that makes it that much more flavorful big portions too. Since I'm no longer in the area I still make my way to Penny's every so often when I'm craving a delicious burger! read more

The go-to spot. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu from breakfast to burgers. Fries are great.

Had the bacon cheeseburger with seasoned fries. Did not disappoint. Great spot for classic burgers. Service was excellent!

Close, quick, reasonably priced and one of our favourites. They have quite the selection and today I wanted a clubhouse with avocado dinner plate which consists of a huge sandwich, fries and onions rings, garden salad and a roll. $13.98 like seriously? You can't even get a McDonald's meal for the price and the quality of ingredients are good not artificial! I love the fries here but had to order fried zucchini with their kick a$$ ranch.

I truly love their breakfast burritos; however, I do feel they are way overpriced. We paid $24 for 1 veggie with carne asada burrito, and when I finally got home to enjoy and eat, there was no carne asada inside. I called to let them know the carne asada is missing; she asked me to bring it back after, and it's almost like she didn't believe us. I've been a customer for many years, but I'm officially done coming here. read more
