    Urban Fries
    Linda M.

    Love their burgers!! I usually get to go, but I've eaten there as well. Every time it's delicious. A really good smash burger and their cheese is really good! I think they make it a little different every time as well... usually it doesn't have lettuce. Overall super delicious!

    Food was quick! Lots of dine in spots and we saw a steady stream of delivery drivers picking up orders. The smashburgers do look good and were tasty but with so much meat they were less "smash". We got the original, the patty melt, and the cheese fries. We were stuffed! Parking is tricky; metered street parking out front or park in the neighborhood.

    The only thing I'm sad about is not discovering this place sooner honestly!! The price points and portions you get are a great deal. I'd rather come here than go eat a burger any other restaurant. The meat is super juicy and flavorful, the burger itself is stacked, the buns are so soft and perfect. The fries are big enough to share between two people. Upon arrival, there were only 2 people eating inside. Once we sat down waiting for our food, a huge party came in and an additional couple joined shortly thereafter. Total was about $30 for two burgers and one fry. Decent dinner price and we found a new burger spot to enjoy! :) There's street parking available but it is a busy area, so keep that in mind. Pro tip: mix the ketchup and the Tapatio for a spicy tang!

    Amazing halal burgers!!! My family and I love this place and have been going for years. Stopped by last night and realized they deserve a review after an amazing meal! Appreciate the extensive menu that offers more than just your standard burger with lettuce and cheese -- they have bbq, spicy, fusion flavors, beef chili... so many different options! We got the brisket fries and loved them. Would definitely get again.

    The hot burger
    Maheen K.

    We went here after visiting Universal Studios. It has been on my "list," for years and I was not disappointed in the offerings. I ordered the hot burger, my husband the mushroom one, and my daughter the kids burger. All three came out piping hot and juicy. It had a good juicy patty and melted cheese along with oozing sauces. I did find there to be a slight meaty smell to it so I docked one star but overall the value of thr burger was amazing and it hit the spot being hungry after a hectic day at Universal. I would recommend getting this!

    I've been a regular customer at Urban Skillet for years, across different locations, and I've always liked the food -- but this experience really changed that. My uncle ordered me the loaded fries and tots through Uber Eats from their ghost kitchen restaurant called "Smashin Buns", and the description clearly said they came with bacon bits. When I got the order, there were none. I went to the restaurant to ask about it, and the chef gave me attitude and told me they don't come with bacon bits... even though it says so on the app. Then he said I'd have to pay extra if I wanted them. I submitted a complaint hoping they'd make it right, but it's been almost two weeks and I haven't heard anything back. It's super disappointing, especially as a long-time customer. Bad customer service and no accountability. Definitely not what I expected from a place I used to recommend to friends.

    Loaded buffalo fries

    Delicious food , good atmosphere and halal ! Ingredients taste fresh, place is clean, and the lady who served us was very friendly.

    Southern BBQ Burger

    I was visiting LA for the weekend and decided to stop here because the food is halal. Ended up having the burger I've ever had! I highly recommend the bbq burger. The wings were good too.

We stopped in on a Sunday around 11:30, no line and very quick service! Finished eating and left around 12:05 so we must've lucked out with no line. We got two double cheese burgers and the loaded fries. The burger had impressively thin patties with a really nice char on the meat skirt, well seasoned, and perfectly crispy. The buns were quite small and a bit smooshed, but they were soft. It came with some fry sauce and pickles as well, overall a good burger. The fries had a good amount of toppings (cheese onions, fry sauce) and were nice and crispy. Kinda wish the onions were slightly more grilled for some extra flavor! Would probably go for plain next time as the loaded fries and burger together had similar flavors The interior has a few benches for seating and single bar type seating around the perimeter - I could see it filling up if there's a big line of people. Would like to try the chicken sandwich and brussel sprouts next time we stop by!

I have carried life's burden and traveled continents, but one thing remains the same after my many moons of life, the taste of a Big Mac. The taste of a burger so consistent and familiar, that my tastebuds can traverse continents and taste fermented shark in the Netherlands, broiled Mackerel in Kyoto, or a cheeseburger in Reykjavik. The Big Mac stays the same. I went to LA to taste, apparently, the best burger in LA at For the Win. I paid $25 for two smash burgers and had high expectations. After all, when you click this joint on Google Maps, a fancy review pops up. Nice! However, when the smash burger entered my cave and caressed my buds, my mind instantly recognized it as a Big Mac. Therefore, my brain could hardly differentiate between a McDonalds burger, and the "best" burger in LA. I haven't eaten at McDonalds in 14 years, but my mind still knew what a gentle and warm face looks like. So overall, it was alright! As the reverend Shane Gillis says "Not Bad". The service was good tho. And the ambiance was a bit weird because the music was off. Haha bye!!!

I like…read morethem, but I've never fully understood the obsession, especially when LA has so many unique, global, authentic, and genuinely incredible food options. But Amboy has gotten a ton of hype, especially from food influencers, so I decided to make the 45-minute trek and try the DH Burger. We arrived just before 5, so there was hardly a line. After ordering, we waited about 25 minutes for our burgers and fries, which felt reasonable for a thicker patty cooked with some intention. The DH is a seriously good burger. It's probably about as good as a classic burger can get. The meat was juicy, the bun was soft, and everything was cooked and constructed really well. Does it justify the higher price? I'm not entirely sure. Was it a mind-blowing experience? Not really. Was it delicious? Absolutely. I just don't think it's so far superior to other great burgers that most people need to travel 45 minutes for it, especially considering the extremely limited seating, crowded space, and slightly grungy DTLA location. If you're anywhere nearby, Amboy is absolutely worth trying. If you're a true burger connoisseur, it may even be worth the longer pilgrimage. Overall, I'd absolutely recommend Amboy and agree that it's a top-tier burger. I just think there are a lot of really good burgers out there, and it's difficult for something as simple as a burger to reach the almost mythical level of hype that surrounds this one.
