Portions are giant. Cheese burger is solid if you're not up for pastrami. Onion rings are better than the fries. Reminder to ask for salt and ketchup before you head out the door with your to~go order. read more

Tried the beef dip sandwich today. Very tasty especially when you dip the sandwich in Au Jus. Not a fan of their fries though as I prefer my fries crispy. I made my own fries and dipped them in the side of their Chili. Their Chili is pretty greasy, but I liked it...Lol read more

Pastrami sandwiches are really good!!! I always order the pastrami, fries and a drink. I'm never able to finish my pastrami but when it's hitting I can eat the whole thing!! The shakes are good too! read more

We had the pastrami chili cheese fried. You get a large portion. There was enough to share between my husband and I with a lot left over. They give a good amount of pastrami. They're not greedy. The fries were cooked well and more on the softer side (the way I like them). I'm really not a fan of chili but everything taste well together. The cost: $14.00 a little too pricey for my liking but with the amount of meat you get its somewhat worth it. read more

The Hat - Pastrami Chili Cheese Fries $14. You get a lot of meat so it's worth the cost of you're a pastrami lover. - Fast Food Near Me - Rancho Cucamonga, California

The BEST double cheeseburger ever!!! Went for pastrami but instead found a new favorite !

Amazing pastrami sandwiches! They are huge! I could only finish half of it. The onion rings are REAL...not processed bits of onion, but actual onion rings. Good bang for your buck with large portions. read more

The servings here are generous. Honestly the chili tamales was enough for me. But we ordered the chili tamale, chili cheese fries, and pastrami sandwich. The food tasted great. Chili was on point and very similar to Tommy's Burgers for me. I have had their chili tamale and chili cheese fries on many occasions now and the consistency of flavor is always the same. Their pastrami was juicy and flavorful. Service is fast and Resturant is well kept. Not something I would eat monthly but nice food to indulge for sure :) read more

The Hat - Waiting...... opens at 10 a.m. - Fast Food Near Me - Rancho Cucamonga, California

I went in for a solo lunch meal. I ordered the chili fries with pastrami and I added tomato, onions and pickles ontop. The portion size was stunning and I was excited. Unfortunately my order lacked any flavor. Fries were unsalted, chili was bland and the world famous pastrami was bland too. Every bite relied heavily on the pickles and ketchup for taste. I can usually destroy a order of chili fries but in this case I didn't like it and left most of it. Food had no flavor and cost me 22$ with a medium drink. read more

I have only ever ordered their chili cheese fries with pastrami, and gravy on the side. On occasion I'll eat it with banana peppers and horseradish sauce if I want to get crazy. This place is great! It's somewhat expensive but for the amount of food you receive it's worth it. They load the pastrami on top, and definitely aren't skimping. I've never had a bad experience here. It can be packed and I'll still get my food in a timely manner, and I've never had a problem with their service. read more

The Hat serves one of my favorite pastrami sandwiches. Usually has tons of meat. No complaints in flavor. Service can use a smile once in a while, but it is what it is. Today I wanted to try something different. I was in the mood for some chili cheese fries with cheese and pastrami meat. Serving size was huge. Wish they had served in a closed hingeli was flavorless. container instead of a beverage container ( I ordered it in the drive thru ). Chili was flavorless. I did have the yellow peppers and pickles to bite into to give it some flavor. I was only able to eat about 7 forkful bites before my stomache started giving me signs to stop. It was really greasy. The chili cheese fries with pastrami meat and a large Orange Bang was approximately $21. At least if I could eat half of it, I wouldn't mind the price. I had to throw it away. So.... this is the reason I gave only 3 stars today, read more

I was in the mood for a pastrami sandwich & was looking for somewhere close to Ontario & came across The Hat in reviews & pictures. So, this place is located in Rancho Cucamonga, close to Victoria Gardens, & they have a drive thru. I've nvr heard of this place but it seems decent. I ordered their pastrami burger & onion rings... the burger is amazing with bursts of flavor, the onion rings are cool too... what I dnt like is that they dnt serve you dipping sauce in a container for your convenience of dipping ur rings in a cup, they serve you packets instead which makes for a mess when trying to open & use on the rings. Other than that, I'd come back again for their food read more

Great pastrami and chili cheese fries, classic diner vibes, friendly staff every time

Great food .. some of the best pastrami in town. Local Staple .cheap prices you get your money worth. Very tasty

Very good, but not as good as pre-pandemic. My mom had the avocado sandwich which was delicious, but I went for the original pastrami sandwich (a little chewy). Ordered the Orange Bang, which used to be the Orange Julius, but too sweet and not the same. As ALWAYS, there is PLENTY of food from the side orders. read more

Anybody who gives this place less than 4 stars has faulty standards. This is literally the best pastrami anywhere outside of a few LA spots. Everything is cooked properly and tastes great. Don't be fooled by people on here with weird standards read more

Great pastrami! The chili cheese fries were OK, the chili is similar to Pinks hotdogs chili, in my opinion. I would recommend the pastrami burger if you are undecided about a sandwich or a burger. Amazing! Pastrami overload, and great burger overall. read more

Love the Hat pastrami sandwiches. Am originally from Southern California and have grown up eating at the Hat. Now am living in Las Vegas, so whenever I go visit family in Cali, we always stop by the Hat. The Hat was supposed to open up a new location in Las Vegas but then due to Covid, plans were changed. We definitely want the Hat here and it would be a major successful store if built To the owners of the Hat, please bring your franchise to Las Vegas as originally planned. There are many Californians here and many people that have never had the pleasure of eating your pastrami sandwiches! read more

The hours say until 1 am. Whoever was in charge said they ran out of everything and was closed. This was at 12:30. Plenty of time for me to still order. He threw his shoulders up and ignored me. I told him i drove over an hour to try the food and he didn't care. With every power i have I promise I will make this establishment feel what they did. Dont avertise hours if you close before the listed hours. The better business bureau will be getting a call from me. read more

First, I will say this is strictly about customer service and not the food since we didn't get a chance to order due to the exchange. This is for the evening of 6/7 around 6pm. My aunt wanted a pastrami sandwich but can't easily digest untoasted bread. She asked the order taker (male - didn't get his name) if they could toast her bun a little longer and he told her "no" but that they could do it if she ordered a hamburger. So, you're telling me you can toast bread longer for a hamburger but not for a pastrami sandwich? His answer was "yes" only for hamburgers. He let $25+ of business walk out the door over the level of toasting? Won't be back. read more

We have heard so much about The Hat and their pastrami sandwiches that we had to give it a try. We ordered a pastrami dip and "small" fries to share. We found this to be the perfect amount of food for 2 people. The sandwich was a pretty good size and had lots of pastrami, pickles, and mustard. I loved how super savory it was. The fries were served in a container in a paper bag and they container was overflowing into the paper bag. These are chunky fries that are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I prefer my fries a little thinner, but that's preference. I loved the diner vibe of this spot and the quick service. If you're a fan of pastrami you should check out The Hat! read more

This place is so overrated and pricey now. We ordered a pastrami, 2 small chili fries, 2 cheeseburgers and 2 small cokes. The total came out to over $50 and the chili fries were not small at all. They were so big that not even 2 people could finish 1 order. The chili on the fries had no taste whatsoever. I had to literally dig out the plain fries from underneath the chili to eat with plain ketchup. I will say that the pastrami was just okay, nothing special. read more

Old school pastrami...no shortage of flavor. Don't miss out on this classic mom and pop burger stand favorite.

This is my 3rd time here and I love the sandwhiches and fries with gravy. They have a nice area to sit outside and even though the line was long I was surprised at how quickly the food came out! read more

Amazing pastrami it's still a great price. I already recommended the roast beef dip sandwiches great too plenty of french fries served.

I think this is one of the few staples of Rancho Cucamonga that is worth raving about - The Hat really puts the IE on the map. It's a great option for when you're craving fast food but don't want to eat something as artificial as the McDonalds next door. I'm a simple gal and I really like the grilled cheese here, but their burgers are really good and adding chili makes the burger so so tasty and juicy. Their regular sized burgers are humongous so if you plan on getting that, make sure you have the appetite for it. In fact, all their portions are huge and fairly priced, so bring a friend for the ultimate bang for your buck! I typically get the Junior Cheeseburger then add pastrami to it - but I can never finish even just that. The Hat is known for their chili pastrami fries, where they fill an entire drink carrier with fries, top it with a heaping scoop of fresh chili, and an even more heaping scoop of perfectly seasoned pastrami. If you have out of town visitors and want to give them a unique California dining experience, you've gotta take them here (or head to the original location in Alhambra- where they have delicious horchata!) read more
