If you're looking for a proper classic smashburger, San Dimas Burger Co. nails it. I went with the Hawaiian bread bun and added bacon, and that combo took the burger to another level. The patty is smashed just right, with crispy, caramelized edges and a juicy, flavorful center, while the melted cheese blends perfectly into the beef. The bacon adds that extra smoky, savory crunch, which pairs insanely well with the subtle sweetness of the Hawaiian bun. It creates that perfect sweet-and-salty balance, with every bite hitting a mix of juicy, crispy, and soft textures. The toppings stay simple and fresh, letting the flavor of the burger really shine. I had it with a side of tater tots, which were crispy and satisfying, but honestly, I feel like the sweet potato fries might've been the better move. That slight sweetness would've complemented the burger even more and taken the whole meal up a notch. Overall, it's a standout burger--simple, flavorful, and done right. Definitely something I'd order again... next time with the sweet potato fries. read more

San Dimas Burger located in the city of San Dimas has a wide range of burgers and also sides. I did a phone order, and had some steak tartar tots, which were filled with some chopped onions, sauces, and it was delicious! It was super heavy and I barely finished a quarter of it. But it was so so good! I will come back to try their burgers next time. read more

I had a lovely experience at San Dimas Burger. I ordered the Classic Smash Burger ($20). It's perky Brioche Buns, two Angus Beef Patties, fresh American Cheese, Pickles, Grilled Onions, and crunchy Smoked Bacon. This meal is served with crunchy, golden French Fries. It's a satisfying, delicious meal! I arrived at San Dimas Burger on Sunday (around 12:34PM). Parking is convenient if familiar with the area. I recommend using the business's hidden rear private parking lot. However, there's also a strip parking near the front, but those parking spots are fairly competitive. Staff is very friendly and welcoming. Staff (receipt says Sandra) is professional and hardworking. Sandra answered all my questions, and Sandra regularly checked on me. My food took eight minutes and 32 seconds. Good pace! As mentioned, I enjoyed the Classic Smash Burger ($20). The toasted bun is perky and fluffy. The meat patties are juicy with a clean meat flavor. The melted cheese tasted fresh. And the meal came together with that crunchy bacon. Each bite was euphoric! This is a satisfying, enormous burger. In addition, the golden french fries felt unique. Its outer layer is very crispy, yet its potato did not feel dried out. There's a satisfying crunch with a fluffy potato. YUM! Concerning ambiance, San Dimas Burger's appearance screams old. The chairs are poorly maintained; several chairs looked ripped apart. The floor and walls look worn down. And the decor is very minimal. Still, the location felt clean and well-ventilated. There's a gender neutral restroom for customers; door's code is taped onto the counter. There's also six muted flat screen televisions. I appreciated how one of those TV's had captions. The location also feels spacious with its tall ceiling. There's about 10 inside tables and a counter; there's also tables on the front patio. Overall, I had a phenomenal experience at San Dimas Burger. The Classic Smash Burger ($20) is absurdly delicious! If you love burgers, this is an easy recommendation. 4.9 out of 5! Go!! read more

Friends and I tossed a coin and chose San Dimas Burger for lunch. The menu looked pricey but the food pics made the price look correct. We sat on the shady clean patio at noon and had no problems parking in the shared off street parking just steps away. The food was easy to order and arrived quickly which aligned with the limited customer count. California Burger and 2 build your own burgers with tater tots, onion rings, reg fries and sweet potato fries for sides. The onion rings and fries have a batter on them that make them crunchy and tasty. Pro Tip - If you are hungry order the reg fries because the sweet potato fries are about half the amount. We weren't asked by staff and forgot to ask for the Burger to be cooked rare or medium rare and the burgers came out dry and over cooked. I love the garlic butter which seemed cheesy and made the burger taste amazing regardless. Service was great and she actually brought out an icy filled pitcher of water for the table. Traffic and noise is low so you can talk without problems if you like to talk during lunch. This place is close to everyone and worth a try if you are in the area. We shall return! read more

Stopped in for lunch. I wanted a burger and found this place. But they also have some interesting "secret menu" Hispanic food items which I will be back to try. Burger was juice and tasty! Fries were fried to perfection a little crispy just how I loved them. The layout of the place was a bit weird. Walked in and there isn't a clear place to go but you end up just taking a seat anywhere and then they come to you with a menu. Service was good. Food came out quickly too. read more

San Dimas Burger - CALI BURGER - Burgers Near Me - San Dimas, California

Pretty good, filling, satisfying burgers. Solid portions for the Build-Your-Own-Burger combo. Their thin-cut fries were nicely seasoned and were the right amount of salty, savory. Their Side Salad was not worth it - a light amount of lettuce, some tomatoes, and too many croutons; more like a crouton salad lol. The medium well meat patty was good but I think I'll dry medium rare next time for an overall more juicy burger. They should've added some olives and cucumber slices in the salad, needed more crunch texture. Their ranch dipping sauce is bomb, not sure if they make it in-house but it's fabulous poured on the burger and with the fries. Would definitely order lunch from here again. read more

Food was seriously on point. The Luau burger, Cali burger, and pastrami burger were all really good -- big portions and super satisfying. You definitely get your money's worth. Steak cheese tots was bomb The service was the friendliest and most welcoming. Waitress made us feel comfortable right away even when she was only one working and running back and forth. The restaurant was clean and they have an outside patio to dine as well. We'll definitely be coming back -- probably once a week and try out their other items. read more

The burgers are delicious but do not sleep on the papusas! They also have an agua Fresca selection.

Some background: Bun Street in West Covina partnered with the owner of this place to make it a hamburger restaurant. The owner of San Dimas Burger insisted on serving Salvadoran food in addition to the hamburgers so the partnership with Bun Street was severed. The owner of Bun Street wanted to keep it just as a hamburger place. I ate here when it was just newly opened and hamburgers only and the place was incredible, just as good as Bun Street in West Covina, which is incredible too. Ate here again in May 2025. Completely different experience in a bad way. We come here because of the smash burgers and it was as if the cook had no idea what a smash burger was. Also, we ask for our burgers well done, please look at the photos. Literally took half an hour to get the raw hamburger replaced. Completely insane! The Bun Street guy was right to sever the relationship with this place. The server was nice but clueless. The interior is the same as the remodel done when Bun Street was involved. read more

We got the Pizza Tots/Fries and the Golden Mac Burger. These were pretty big portions. My family of 3 couldn't finish! Everything was great tasting. Marley was amazing from start to finish. She greeted us immediately upon entry and checked on us multiple times through the meal. She was extremely friendly and made sure to make our young child felt included and enjoyed her time as well. Everything from the service to the cleanliness to the food was awesome. We will absolutely be back! read more

Let me start by saying that the service was amazing, her suggestions helped when trying to make up my mind on what to order. Not only Burgers, but their menu offer other kinds of foods, like pupusas. We sat outside as the sun was setting since it was a warm day. Ohhh and the beer:) the beer was pretty good read more

This place used to be Cafe Las Pupusas Dining & Brews. If you go to their website it takes you to San Dimas Burger as well as the secret menu for P'aco's pupusas and tacos. It's the same owner and you can still get the same food but I guess they thought they'd get more business making burgers. That said, they have a solid assortment of said burgers. I tried the pastrami burger which was a sloppy satisfying mess of a burger. Your side is included at lunch and I went with tater tots. Super crispy! My wife went with the patty melt, which to be honest, was really a burger on grilled bread. It tasted fine but a real patty melt becomes an inseparable mass of gooey cheese, caramelized onions, patty and bread. This delivered none of that. So skip the melt and stick to the burgers on buns. Next time I want to try the Mexican side of the menu. We dined on the patio because the weather was nice. Food was a little slow in arriving but not to the point of concern. I would definitely stop by again. read more

How do you go from pupusas to burgers?? When I learned that these are the same owners, I was honestly not surprised how quickly they switched up. Plus, all of the negative reviews for San Dimas Burger regarding the service were my exact experiences when they were a pupusas restaurant. So not much has changed apparently. If you wanna wait over an hour for food and not have any of the staff check in on you or provide any updates as to why its taking so long even though you're the only customer in there, then check these guys out! read more

I've twice now and will be back again. The burgers are freshly made, and seem to be fully handmade. Good portions and quality ingredients. Service has always been great too. Love sitting on the patio. Highly recommended! read more

Figured I'd give this place a try as it's near my work. Read the reviews and they are mixed given they have a 4.1 average. First thing I noticed was the patio up the street at Railside cafe was BUSY yet there were NO people on the patio at SD Burger. Walked in and maybe 8-10 people were in there. Should have taken the hint and walked up to Railside. lol Ordered the smash burger, carne asada fries, lemonade and a soda. Smash burger was not a smash burger, was just a double cheeseburger. Of note, the bacon was SO gross looking..... uncooked looking and slightly grey, I picked it off, no way I was eating that! The burger was very average. The carne asada fries were nothing special. Bill was $50!!! No thanks and won't be back. Server was super nice. read more

Felt a huge welcome energy, I've passed by this place many times and it's always packed with customers. Came here with my 3 son's to enjoy a father son's day. Place is extremely clean and nice, we decided to sit outside in the patio area. It's a nice sunny breezy evening. The food looks amazing on the menu. Sandra and Marley are wonderful. Marley took our photo. The food is amazing don't take my word for it. Come and dine in for yourselves you definitely won't be disappointed. I would definitely be returning to this place. read more

Honestly, I came here today because I was trying to figure out what to have for lunch and this came up as a suggestion on yelp and when reading the reviews I found they were pretty contradictory so I came here just because I was curious. I have to say, I think everything about the place is great. Tuesday lunch at about 1 PM. Only a couple groups eating. I ordered the make your own burger. I chose the beef patty with their special sauce, (Thousand Island-ish), Swiss cheese, grilled onions, lettuce, tomato, pickles on a brioche bun. It was cooked well done/thoroughly which I find is common for burgers in restaurants, but it was juicy and very tasty. I got tater tots and a Diet Coke. B cause I was here during lunchtime I got $2 off of the burger and tater tots. The server was great. read more

My son and I were craving a burger and we decided to dine in here. The restaurant is pretty spacious and clean. We sat down and were waited on immediately since it wasn't busy. I ordered the smash burger with fries and a drink. The patty was far from smashed and lacked seasoning. The fries were great and can be shared. My son ordered the Mac n Cheese burger and if I'm being honest, the Mac n cheese was also lacking flavor. Although my expectations weren't quite met, you may like it. Please support your local small businesses and give them a try! read more

THEY ARE CLOSED WHEN THEY SAY THEY'RE OPEN AND DO NOT ANSWER THE PHONE. HORRIBLE PREORDER EXPERIENCE. The lady working there, Aracely, is an angel, she deserves better! I tried to order a tray of food ahead of time for a meeting, and it went terribly wrong. For whatever reason, it didn't work when I tried to order directly from the website. I called the restaurant well after their posted opening hours and left a message, never got a call back. I physically showed up at the restaurant to place an order at 11:30, the doors were locked and it looked like they were closed. I finally placed the order for pickup on DoorDash and it was accepted, but when I went to pick it up, again doors were locked, looked like they were closed, AGAIN, after they were supposed to be open. Order was fired up when I got there, but this was a terrible experience. The lady cooking the food was incredible, but I'm not ready to come back after this experience. I hope management sees this and changes things around or staffs it up for their posted opening hours. read more

I ordered the caliente burger. From the first bite you can tell that it's true when they advertise that the meat is 100% angus beef. It's very juicy. You could also tell the ingredients were fresh including the jalapeños. The true standout, despite the burger already being as good as it was, was the fries. I understand it's a simple item on the menu but when the fries can outshine an already very good burger, you know you have something special. Perfectly fried and crisp and needed no sauce, though the ranch was a great addition. The only reason I can't give it a 5 star is because, although on the menu, at that time they had no beers on tap and only bottles. Outside of that, which could have just been the timing I went, this place is a great spot to grab a great burger and fries. read more

The place looks great. It use to just be a pupuseria. I was so excited to learn they still had these. But unfortunately they sucked. It was just masa- hardly any cheese. The rice was old (it was hard and felt microwaved) and the beans were watery. Both lacked flavor. I threw most of it away. I ate the little cheese I found. What a waste of my hard earned money. I really was hoping they would be as good as they use to be. read more

Been here a couple of times and the first two visits were great, after that the service dwindled. One of my favorite things is their Asian chicken salad. This salad used to be huge and could be split between two people easily. Lately they've cut the food in half, but kept the $20 price the same. Disappointed and won't return. read more

Service slow. Smash burgers & tatertots took over an hour and weren't even smash burgers. The server never came to check on us. Ever. Even after I went to the front looking for some help about where our food was. No silverware or napkins given. There were maybe 2 other guests in the whole place, so not busy. I should be giving 1 star. But the place has potential, it's a great location and patio for seating. read more

Came in here last night with the San Dimas Runners for an event . The location was very convenient, parking was easy, the place was clean, and the staff was very friendly. WE arrived very close to closing (sorry) and stayed a little longer than we should've, but the staff was very nice about it and rolled with the flow. The staff was very nice and apologetic for our orders taking a little longer than usual, but we kinda bombarded them with a group of like 40 people (or more) all at once. We ordered the horchata and sliders with fries , and everything was delicious ! The horchata was the best part ! Some of my friends ordered the popusas and they looked amazing. The restrooms are well kept and clean (eventhough alot of us runners barged in after the run). I love that this place feels like home, very cozy and down to earth, not your typical franchise vibe at all ! So come down, bring the Familia, bring your hunger and the buenas vibras! read more
