    My boyfriend loves this place! I finally gave them a try by picking up some food via drive-thru. I feel torn and might have to try them again because my food was half good and half stale. I ordered their double bacon cheese burger with onions rings and an arnold palmer. I opted to make it a large for an extra $.59 or something. I also ordered another side of zucchini fries. The burger was delicious. The onion rings and zucchini fries were fried well but the breading on both were stale and tough. I don't know if they were sitting for a while and then got refried? It sucked because the portions are generous but I couldn't even eat 1/4 of the onion rings and zucchini fries. Even the ranch couldn't save it. Service was hospitable but took a little longer than I would have thought. For the burger combo and extra side of zucchini fries, I paid $31 without tip.

    Biggest and baddest fish sandwich in town!
    Dan G.

    By far the best fish sandwich in all of Southern California! Stacked high with tomato pickles and lettuce. Also available on sourdough bread, which makes this the absolute king of fish sandwiches! I defy you to find a better fish sandwich. Yellow Basket is the bomb! The staff is extremely friendly and very helpful. Love this place!

    Came here for a quick bite eat and was craving a pastrami sandwich. I was shocked of the price but it was worth it. Very good and big sandwich. I highly recommend this spot. Will come back for breakfast lol

    Fish n chips and a surprise house salad

    The service was great, they do mostly drive-thru orders here at this Carson location. Ample parking, clean bathroom, hot water access. You can tell a lot about a restaurant on the overall functionality of the bathroom and cleanliness. I ordered the fish and chips basket $14.99 The food was great ! Not quite the best quality of fish batter but still very good and cooked well almost like air fry system. The overall basket was great either way a mix of French fries and onion rings. It was paired with a very good carbonated coke and a house salad. For the price and quantity of the meal, it's definitely a hot item to get! I had to take half of the meal home, which was still good for dinner! I'll go again!

    Colossal burger combo

    Well we were in the area after attempting to attend a funeral. My hubby was starving and mother in law was thirsty. We all agreed to sit down and eat rather than drive through to drive all the way home. The yellow basket has ample parking, restrooms avaiable for patrons. We walked in and immediately felt relief from the scorching temperature here in California. Thank you Yellow Basket ! We ordered food it arrived in a timely manner. Our drinks came first. We enjoyed the atmosphere here while dining in. You can tell they have regulars from the local area. There food was fresh and hot.

    Bacon Avocado Cheese Burger 10/10 - full of flavor - good amount of bacon & avocado Zucchini Fries 10/10 - taste fresh - regular size is good enough to share with 2-3 people One of the best mom and pop restaurants there is in town. My family has been coming here for years. The service in this restaurant is really fast and friendly. They have a welcoming environment. You do have to pay extra for condiments. They also have bathrooms which was clean when I was there, just ask for the key:)

    Food tastes great. The crispy chicken sandwich is probably the worst for the money and taste ‍. Not sure why this one is so skimpy. 70% Bun

    Do cooks have to SLAM the spatula on the griddle? It's so distressing!

    Are the workers wearing gloves and a mask?

I was really impressed with the meat quality as well as the bread. I usually don't get anything fancy on my burger so I tried the standard cheeseburger.

This is probably why most people came in with online/phone orders for pickup and got the heck out of there in a hurry. Fries are okay at best but the onion rings are fantastic! I don't recommend the smash style burger because it's smaller and doesn't come with the fixings, but if that's your thing than by all means enjoy. I got the backyard bbq burger and it was very tasty. Not the best I've ever had but it definitely hits the spot and prices are not bad at all here. If I happen to be in the area again I would definitely be down to phone in my order and pickup for takeout to enjoy the tastiness somewhere I feel a little more comfortable. Staff was also very friendly - when they could be seen at least, but it was one cashier/server with two guys in the kitchen and although it's a small hole in the wall place there is still plenty to do if you're understaffed so I'm not even mad about it. Thanks ya'll!

    I had to leave a review because I am not understanding the low ones! My family and I have come here…read morefor YEARS! Employees are kind and generous! Food is always hot on top of being delicious! Turkey burger is juicy and seasoned! Food is never greasy. No notes to be made here.

    Respectfully this review may sound harsh but it's 1000% truth…read more The burger...eww. Why? Low grade, FOUL smelling Jennio-O caliber meat quality at best. And desert dry at that. If you're okay with this, then have at it. But just remember this review when you smell this under seasoned chunk of rancid meat you just spent your hard earned money on. The first thing I noticed cutting into this burger was the scent. It was FOUL. And then I instantly remembered why it has been 2 years since I visited this place. Same experience. This meat cannot be fresh whatsoever. It stinks. But to no surprise, it mirrors the poor quality of the fries (mid at best) and the knock off hidden valley ranch disguised as a house ranch you have to pay extra for. TBH the idea of a burger spot specializing in turkey burgers is really unique and opens up options that are both simple and satisfying. However, the turkey-- where you buy it, how you store it and the overall quality is the star of the show, and this ain't it. Simply put, it's not for me. I could not eat this food. Not to mention I feel there is a bit of deflection on the workers part when a concern is politely brought to their attention. The food, guaranteed IS NOT FRESH. I recommend Chinollo across the street. Fresh, high quality and juicy farm raised meats paired with equally high quality sides made in house (not frozen), fresh veg, fresh hand cut fries, house made sodas, milk teas and teas; nothing reeks of left over food being sold at ransom prices

We were thrilled to see a few menu options that were marked as vegan. Bonus points for being affordable! I completely missed their attached parking lot when I arrived and ended up parking across the street in the neighborhood, where there was ample free parking. When we arrived, the restaurant was about half full and there was live music occurring on the patio. We opted to sit inside where it was a little less noisy and there was a comfy and cozy booth calling our name. The vibe was great, with fun and eclectic decor. The service was really upbeat and friendly and our server was so kind and helpful. We asked him if the espresso martini had dairy in it (which I just discovered that is a thing at some places) and he double checked with the bartender to ensure there wasn't my dairy in it! I ordered that alongside a falafel wrap I must say, both of these worked so well together. The espresso martini was light and refreshing yet still had a bold flavor. The falafel was nice and crispy with a delectable inside and the tahini sauce was so rich and creamy. The meal felt indulgent yet hearty all at the same time. I left feeling so uplifted and relaxed all at the same time. Despite it being on the noisier side, I was still able to hear my friend well and it was such a great place for us to catch up. I would highly recommend this restaurant and would definitely return the next time I'm in the area!

I ordered the pastrami on rye (basically a Reuben) which was good. I wish it had more meat and it was half sliced, half chopped. Theirs seems to be all chopped up and crisped, which gives it a nice texture and almost bacon-y vibe. Messy but good. I had a side salad which was also good. Overall our meal was great and there were TVs visible from anywhere you sat, which is perfect for a sports bar. My big gripe is being charged $1 for pickles to go with a sandwich. Maybe you get more if they put them directly on the sandwich, but they forgot mine so the pickles came in a ramekin. 6 pickle slices for $1.
