I don't even bother with In-N-Out. Unless I'm in the mood to wait 20-30 minutes. There's just a something about the food and service here. It's no frills and chill and pretty darn good. read more

The people are nice. The food is great. The only thing that sticks out to me is that it just feeeeelllllssss sooooooo.... republican. Other than that, five stars! read more

I've always passed by this place and wondered how it's still opened next to in n out & today I gave this place a shot & ordered the mushroom burger -- it was soooooo good!! 10/10 would def go back again!! read more

Pharo's Burgers is a great alternative if you want a burger but not willing to wait in line at In-N-Out across the street. The Chili Cheese Burger is pretty good and the seasoned fries were fresh off the fryer. Space inside is decent not too spacious. Same with the parking. Overall, Pharo's is your typical small business burger joint and it is good to support small businesses. read more

Coming from Keck Medicine appointment and saw the sign that said charbroiled burgers. Enough said. Delicious burger and pastrami. Took me back to my childhood. Five stars! read more

An oldie, but a goodie. I came here with two friends and it was fun to get that vintage feel, lol. I love places with a nice big menu. I got an avocado burger with fries. My friends got the gyro and a BLT sandwich, respectively. The owner was really nice and made conversation with us. Tip: Pay with cash! read more

Why wait in a ridiculous line than trails into Garfield, when you can stretch your legs and get one of the best burgers in town. In n Out is good, but my time is better spent getting fed than waiting in line. Bacon Cheese burgers, BLT, the fries and onion rings are our favorites. Plus - these people are so nice and were greeted every time. Support the small businesses in Alhambra - go to Pharo's!! read more

Pharos is seriously solid. The fried mushrooms were crispy and delicious--definitely worth trying. The turkey burger was on point too, juicy and packed with flavor. I snagged a bite of my son's breakfast burrito (he had it for dinner), and I totally get why it's a favorite. It was super tasty and hit the spot. The food is really good, the place is clean, and the service is quick. Plus, it's owned by a super nice family, which makes it even better. Pharos is a spot I'll definitely be coming back to. read more

Let start by saying, attention to detail. We made a large order for a group meeting and they were on time and quality of food was great. The food was delicious and plentiful. The variety of burritos we had were bacon, sausage, steak and chorizo. The burritos had plenty of the particular meat and they did not skim on it. Will definitely return.. read more

Fried Mushrooms!! This is the only place I know of in the area to get these whenever I get a craving. Piping hot, crispy on the outside, a little juice inside, dipped in ranch. 5/5 I've had their gyro which is also pretty good 4/5. Located at that triangle intersection of Garfield, Atlantic and Huntington. Counter service with attentive helpful staff. Food is made to order quickly. Plenty of table inside with a few tv screens. read more

Average burger place. Owner is nice to you only if you are a regular customer I noticed. A lot of cursing going on and they charge extra for ranch dressing. Already paid $20 for a cheese burger combo and they nickel and dime you .50 cents for extra ranch dressing. Not good! read more

Burgers are always really solid, and they have some great chili cheese fries! Service is always super friendly and helpful. Really love this place! read more

I used to come here years ago and now I remember why I was a frequent costumer it's still delicious as it was back then. I got the breakfast sausage burrito and it was perfect! The right amount of egg, salsa, sausage and cheese! I also got the zucchini fries which were soooooooo good! Crispy and well seasoned on the outside and fresh on the inside! The only thing I did not appreciate was the cashier took forever to take our order because he was having side conversations with others, which I'm sure doesn't happen often but it was a bit inconsiderate for my liking not good costumer service. The food is worth the wait I suppose. read more

Since leaving Alhambra, I often forget about Pharaoh's . I was driving by and since I was hungry decided to go get my usual breakfast burrito with no meat, and as always, it was delicious. I need to remember this place more often because every time I leave this place I always leave happy. Next morning I'm off I'll be back. read more

Craved a burger, saw the sign, drove right in! Ordered two cheeseburgers and zucchini fries with ranch and was pleasantly surprised! Called in, staff took the order and was very nice, said to wait about 10-15 minutes. My party of 2 got it to-go. It was hot and ready to enjoy immediately! The portions were huge so I got to eat half and save the other half for the next day. Gotta say - it did the job of a burger but wasn't the best! I wished it had more flavor to it. Zucchini fries were huge and I actually liked the size of them a lot better than skinnier ones. I thought it was unique to them! I hope to visit again one day and eat inside. read more

As far as good old splurge cheat meals go, Pharo's is now at the top of my list! I can't believe I'd never been after living nearby for so long... Chili cheese fries are fully loaded and cheese is gooey and blanketed every corner of the box. Chili flavor was perfect. This is my new favorite chili cheese fries spot! Pharo's also serves breakfast burritos all day and my word, the Chorizo and filling were so flavorful and burrito was fully loaded I split it into 2 meals. The burgers are deliciously charbroiled and topped with chopped lettuce and tomato. So many more dishes that I need to try now - patty melt, salads, deep fried mushrooms and their other breakfast items. Drooling until next time... read more

Pharo's Burgers - Chili cheese fries - Burgers Near Me - Alhambra, California

Ok I love this place the food is amazing but the way they treat you when it's a half an hour before they close ugh . Makes me not want to come back . The lock the doors so you have to order from the side window . And I feel like they are already done and don't want to take your order . It's definitely not welcoming. I think maybe change the time to close around 9 or earlier because the staff dose not want to work at the last hou read more

I finally went to Pharo's Burgers. The place was busy at lunch time, a lot of to-go orders. The restaurant has seating inside and outside. 1. Club sandwich combo: It comes with the sandwich, fries and a small drink of your choice. The sandwich was really good with lots of meat and the bread was toasted just right. Fries was hot, crunchy outside and nice and soft inside. 2. Fried zucchini: Actually ordered it to-go but couldn't resist so I ate 2. Yup, just as good as what other customers said... yummy. 3. Fried mushroom: Never heard of fried mushrooms at a fast food restaurant and based on the reviews, I definitely had to try it. Again, it was for to-go but I ate two. It was juicy in the inside and crispy on the outside, tasted good with the ranch sauce as well. 4. Carne asada burrito: It is a good size burrito. I took a bite and it was very flavourful with the asada, beans, pico de gallo, lettuce...don't think there was rice...at least not from the one bite I took. This is definitely a good place to grab a bite (or few bites, haha). The service was good and the cashiers who took the orders were all friendly. Uh...I was only able to finish 1/2 of the club sandwich and the soda. The rest...including the fries...all to-go. read more

These guys over many years have consistently given their customers really excellent burgers and fries. I have never once been disappointed. Everything is made to order so your food is always freshly cooked and piping hot. My favorite is their cheeseburger and my son's favorite is their mushroom burger, and their fries are always outstanding - you can taste the potato in them and they're always cooked perfectly. If you ever wanna really good and tasty burger, drop by Pharao's in Alhambra. read more

I decided to stop by Pharo's burgers today and I'm glad that I did. Such a refreshing alternative to the cookie cutter big chain burger options. I ordered the turkey burger with French fries. While I waited I enjoyed a great conversation with the owners who happen to be brothers. The food was absolutely delicious. If you are a fan charbroiled which I totally am! This is the place for you. The ingredients are fresh and the buns are perfect and as an added bonus for my wheelchair users Pharo's is extremely accessible! Thanks again Pharo's read more

When you're craving a local burger and just don't want it from a chain or something gourmet, Pharo's is the ideal choice. Fried Mushrooms -- Have yet to find another local burger place that offers this on their menu and I really miss the fried mushrooms from BWW. These 'shrooms are big, bad, and juicy. If you're a fan of mushrooms, make sure to order them! Fried Zucchini -- Long, thick cuts of zucchini thinly breaded so much so that it should be handled with care. I had my doubts because many places don't typically cook them all the way through due to the sheer thickness but the texture was just right. Cheeseburger -- Order them with grilled onions! Gives the burger an extra bit of oomph. Very simple burger with lettuce, tomato, and house sauce but gosh darn it was it delicious! I hear the gyro is another popular item. Will definitely return to give it a try. Along with the fried mushrooms, must not forget about the mushrooms... read more

Old style burger joint that will fill your belly, but that's it. The patty was nicely cooked and seasoned, definitely tastes better than fast food chains. The bread is so classic you can literally smell the classic bun aroma you remember from neighborhood burger joints you grew up with. Overall it's a nice meal, nothing to write home about, but also no complaints here. read more

Breakfast burrito was excellent would definitely try again if in the area food was nice hot and ready hash browns was on point

Stopped in yesterday for a gyro. The meat had little flavor and was cut in chunks rather than thinly sliced. It was topped with a drizzle of sauce and a few slices of onion. In the past, gyros always had tomato, lettuce and generous portions of onion and sauce. Such a disappointment, as we have been customers for years, since before In and Out moved in. Quality and attention to detail has gone way down, have been disappointed the last few times we've visited. Won't be coming back, sorry. read more

Had not had lunch it was 2:30 my choice was Pharo or in n out No real choice, one off restaurants win. I was not disappointed the burger was a good size cooked by charbroiling while I waited (3 or 4 minutes) and tasty. The small fries were like an extra large and fresh with a good flavor. The price was great The owner (I assume) was a nice guy, he was helping one of the cooks fill out some type of application when I came in. Come across the street for a great meal read more
