Don't let the outside fool ya, there's some magic happening inside Sam's Burger. My son had been asking me to eat here every time we left his kickboxing class and I finally caved. The vibe here is a 50's burger and shakes type of place. They have indoor dining and a drive-thru; we chose the drive-thru option. The menu is classic burgers, fries, shakes, along with fish n chips, fried shrimp, and a fried fish sandwich. We ordered two cheese burgers, a double jalapeno burger, mozzarella sticks, and two sundaes. Everything is made fresh to order, so you might be waiting, but it's totally worth it! My burger had two huge patties, bacon, cheese, and tons of jalapenos. I just got the burger, no combo, and it was stuffed! My son loved his burger and devoured it. Stated it was the best burger he's had. My wife loved her burger as well and we both loved the mozzarella sticks. The burger combos came with fries and a drink. Their fries here are very good. They add a spiced seasoning to the fries that boosts the flavor without being too salty. The sundaes were a great way to end the meal and the ice cream tasted like real slow churned ice cream. The next time you pass by Sam's Burger, do yourself a favor and grab a burger for the road! read more

The food was great, fresh and hot when we got it home to eat. The chili peppers are a must with your hamburger. The prices are great and very reasonable. The man that took our food order was very nice and helpful. It was so good I ate it two days in a row. Being a lover of hamburgers is what I pride myself with being able to spot a great burger and they did their job. Make sure you upside the fries because the size that come with it in my eyes aren't enough but I'm a fry lover. The ambiance is an average burger joint in Cali nothing special but I will say it was clean outside and in. When in Fresno I will make sure to come back in and order what I will call my usual. My double burger with added grilled onions and extra pickles fully dressed hold the cheese please lol. read more

I have passed by this place several time. Finally stopped to grab some burgers for my family. The customer service is outstanding! I was a little indecisive with the order since I couldn't remember it all. But the employee taking our order was super nice and didn't get upset at all. The double bacon cheeseburger is delicious! Huge burger with nice bacon strips, not the normal paper thin ones. It comes with lettuce, tomatos, and onions (grilled or raw). The patties are regular sized and you can taste the meat in every bit. The ortega burger looked good and daughter in law like it alot. Same veggies but with a mild green roasted Anaheim chili (ortega brand) on the beef patty. We also ordered a bag of fries to share. The fries are good. Nothing great and not bad. Overall, we really liked the burgers and will be back for sure. Next time I plan on getting my grand babies a bannana split too! read more

Best burger, so fresh, great portions. Fried food is all so tasty, crunchy and not oily or greasy at all. Delicious ranch, great service and super clean dinning area! read more

Compared to all fast food in the immediate area..this place has thr best prices for what you get. Their burgers are juicy and the ingredients always seem fresh. The only thing I don't like is their fries. They are always bland so I have to pack thr ketchup. Their onion rings are delicious though so I'll just start switching my side or maybe try thr chilli fries. I Tried their oreo milkshake and it was perfect! Place itself is a bit rundown but who cares when the food is great. read more

Sam’s Burger - Double jalapeño - Burgers Near Me - Fresno, California

There is a lot to like about Sam's Burger. They offer delicious, classic comfort foods, primarily consisting of burgers, sandwiches, and fries, with 20 items on their menu. They boast of making the best avocado, bacon, cheeseburger (ABC burger) in town. It is a small, cozy diner-style restaurant with a drive-thru. This popular local burger joint has two locations in Fresno. The diner is located off Clovis and Ashland Avenues, a mile north of Fresno Yosemite International Airport. (The original location is located off N. Cedar Avenue, near Gettysburg Avenue.) Orders come quickly in a casual, welcoming atmosphere. There is a retro vibe and fast, friendly service. I appreciate the comfortable dining space, featuring cozy, clean booths and tables, their commitment towards a clean environment, affordable pricing, and a functional menu. I tried the ABC burger and the Philly Cheesesteak as a combo (with a drink and fries). The ABC burger features a well-seasoned, fatty, juicy ground beef patty, melted provolone cheese, along with fresh avocado slices, crispy bacon, complementary toppings, and a perfectly toasted bun. The burger was delicious and tightly wrapped in paper. I was impressed by how well the burger stayed intact after I removed it and took a few bites. This demonstrates excellent execution, characterized by the burger quality, a solid understanding of cooking techniques, and proper seasoning of the burger. The Philly cheesesteak features diced ribeye steak, diced bell pepper, caramelized onions, melted provolone cheese, and is served on a lightly toasted hoagie roll. The roll had a nice crisp crust to prevent sogginess, but was firm enough to hold the fillings. The ribeye had a good balance of flavor and fat, but could have been more tender. I also prefer the cheese melted directly on top of the meat to create a creamy blanket. They layer it on top of the roll as it is grilling before adding the meat and toppings. The sautéed onions were sweet and nicely caramelized. Beyond the food, Sam's Burger offers friendly service and a comfortable, casual atmosphere, which makes me want to keep revisiting and to get a more personalized, unique dining experience. read more

I love the variety of food options. Great customer service and friendly service. I went through the drive thru. I ordered the shrimp and fry basket and the veggie burger with cheese (the team member asked if I wanted to add cheese at the window and I'm so glad he offered that because it made the burger even more delicious) . Everything was fresh to order which is worth the wait considering price increases at other more known fast food joints. The price is reasonable and the freshness of food makes it even more worth it. If you are a non meat eater like myself, try the veggie burger! My only complaint is I didn't get napkins but it's ok since I was eating at home. I won't deduct a star because of that. read more

Some of my favorite homemade-tasting burgers in Fresno. I had been wanting to try their Avocado Burger for a while and it did not disappoint. The slices of avocado were thick (as seen in the photo) and the burger already came with bacon which was great. Although the burger had a light flavor to it, it was accompanied well with the fries since the fries were well-seasoned. The customer service here is always average. Nothing to complain about though; they're always respectful and polite. This time around, I decided to eat inside and it was overall good. The AC was on which was nice since it's been hot. The only thing I personally didn't like was that the music was a little too loud. Other than that, I was ok with eating inside. read more

I purchased three burgers with fries and no drinks. $42! Way over priced! They over cooked the fries and charged for ranch and never put them in the bag. I know they are over priced but I always try to help and support. But no more! read more

My son strongly suggested this place over a few suggestions I had. I just had a burger last night at Eureka to which I compare all burgers. Wasn't too hungry so we had them split the burger. I can say the burger was good overall and the veggies on it made the burger. The crinkle cut fries were good. I would come back. read more

I go here so much I don't even know how many times I've gone for only knowing about it for half a year but my husband and I love it. They offer halal options for burgers and beef bacon which is a plus for us since we don't eat pork. I'm in love with their chicken nuggets when I'm in the mood for some comfort food. Everytime we've gone, the food is always hot and fresh which we love! The staff there are kind and the service is great. We usually go through the drive thru and the wait is decent. Even when it's long due to a few cars ahead, it's not as bad. I've ate inside at the cedar location and I like the diner retro style ambiance. I was recommended this place by a coworker and have fell in love so much I recommend it to others! read more

1/25/25 Getting lunch! Ordered and paid for a veggie burger on Yelp. It sent notification of when it would be ready and I went to pick it up. Arrived and let worker know and it was brought right out with good day wishes! Appreciated! Nice inside! Bright red booths with vintage pictures on the walls. Saw Elvis on the way out! =D Lunchtime! Veggie burger was okay. Not much flavor. Definitely needs cheese and seasoning or something more on the veggie patty. Plain. Positives...fresh bun and veggies. I probably should've got a grilled chicken sandwich. Maybe then I would want to recommend it. The service was good too! read more

This place is now one of my favorites. Philly Cheese Sandwich is one of best I've ever eaten. The favor is so good, I've eaten at both locations and both places they were delicious. I've also have eaten the Pastrami Sandwich that is piled with pastrami peppers are hot too But now the Milkshakes are to kill for! They are actually a large . Peanut Butter, Carmel and Vanilla are some of the Shakes I recommend. The services is always great and happy employees with smiles. It's like the old school days where you can still get good service and food! Keep up the excellent Thank you read more

I wanted a burger and some fries. So I went there to grab a meal combo. To be honest the portion was good for its price. The customer service was not too shabby. But on the other hand the beef patties was a little to salt for me. Maybe if they added more veggies it would have balanced it out. Over all it was good. Place was little but clean as well. read more

Very clean dining room with a 50s diner vibe with sparkly red and white vinyl. All the food is made to order so it is hot and fresh for you. My family all had burgers and they made each one with our specific request. My husband doesn't like any sauces. All the burgers were correct. The man behind the counter was really nice and waited patiently for us to look over the menu as this was our first time. Hope to come back when we are in town again. read more

I was really hoping for a legit mom and pop burger joint but was super disappointed. Nothing looks like it's actually made in house. They all look like the came from freezer bags. Ordered fried fish, chicken tenders and a double bacon. Came with fries and side of onion rings. Very low quality. Very disappointed. Won't be coming back. Went through drive through and Service itself was fast and fine. read more

I had the best experience at Sam's Burger. Aside from the great food, the customer service is truly unmatched. I accidentally found myself a bit short on cash through the drive thru, and the team was amazingly understanding and let me cover what I could. Truly honest and considerate people work here! read more

The burgers lacked flavor and had something hard and spiky embedded in the tomato. The fries were overcooked and hard, and they were over-seasoned, likely to compensate for their poor texture. The roof of my mouth is raw from whatever was in the tomatoes. The sundae melted before i even hit the stoplight. This place was better when it was Sno White. They claim to have "The best burgers in town" but not even close. There should be some regulation to restaurant claims. Was very disappointed waste of money and time. read more

I was overcharged, paid $17 for a $12 meal. Fries are mid and no bacon on my bacon burger.. and the burger itself was not great.

Sams is hands down the BEST burger place in town (the Clovis ave location). Every burger is made fresh and the fries are perfect. They are so nice, like family. It's always very clean inside and the decor is awesome!! Very 50s vibe. Service is pretty quick even when they are super busy. They also have a drive thru. The menu is quite large offering not just burgers but chicken, seafood, zucchini fries, fried mushrooms, the shakes and sundaes are heavenly. Portions are generous. Sam's never disappoints and is our go to spot!! frequently. I highly recommend Sam's! The BEST!! My personal favorites are the Avocado Burger and the Ortega Burger. read more
