This is our 2nd time ordering here. The 1st time I got the teriyaki dinner, it was good I would probably ask my chicken more char-broil. We order the 2nd time and got the Philly cheese steak and was very delicious. Unfortunately we had to wait for our meal for nearly 30 min but all of our food came out delicious, my husband enjoyed his pastrami burger

Carlos and his family are amazing. They're kind of like a family to me when I want to go have a burger when I want to eat bacon and not eat pork. They're really amazing people. I love their customer service and they're very kind-hearted. One of the best burger places I've had in a while and I've traveled all across the United States as a truck driver. Worth your money and worth your wild. Thank you guys.

I visit this place on a regular basis. The service is excellent, very friendly employees and phenomenal food! The picture below is of my Cali burger I ordered today, it comes with bacon and Avacado on it. It’s so delicious and at a great price! Big burger for the price compared to others in the area. Also serve their sodas with crushed ice!

Delicious burgers and fries! This place is always busy, and the food is always fresh. Quick friendly service. No dining room, but they have a drive-thru and walk-up counter. For a really good burger combo to go, I highly recommend this place!
