Let me premise my review with this. I was and am still faithful to the previous owners who had excellent and unique burgers and gyros.It's not much of what it was. From distracted service to a soggy burger. I'm pretty disappointed. Time to find a new place.

While trolling for some lunch near my office, I came across this diner sitting in the middle of a desolate parking lot. The neon, painted window signs caught my eye:Giant Burger, Fries, Drink for $5.25!Hand Spun ShakesGyrosI decided to check it out. The inside of this joint is nothing to write home about. It's filled with cheap booths and tables. The in-house stereo system is a boom box on the counter. However, I do love the life-size cardboard cut-out of John Wayne stuffed by the ice cream case. Talk about total randomness!For food, I ordered the giant cheeseburger combo (comes with fries and drink), a side of onion rings, and a chocolate shake. Yes, I'm a frickin' glutton. The burger was 6 inches in diameter and actually filled the bun to the edges. To me, that definitely can be considered "giant". The patty is handmade and of medium juicy-ness. A tad bland, but nothing condiments can't cure. It comes with a layer of chopped onions and lettuce and some pickles. The fries are typical frozen fried which means they were just "meh". I doubt the onion rings are hand battered, but I thought they were pretty tasty. Both the fries and onion rings come with no seasoning. It's up to you to salt and/or pepper to taste. I actually prefer this since I'm not a big fan of salt. The shake was okay. It's something you can get at any fast food chain.Overall, the food here was decent and definitely priced right for the poor college student like me. I'll be sure to check out their green chile fries and gyros the next time I'm in.

Ok so they're under new ownership by a different family and they're changing their name to Taqueria Los Gallitos but it looks like they're keeping the old menu and adding a very vast taqueria type of menu. There's nothing remarkable about the patties, smashed very thin and fried on a cooktop, nicely seasoned but practically fall apart were it not for the cheese holding them together. The fries are your typical skinny fries, nothing to write home about.I tried their tacos al pastor this week just to change it up a little, served with a fried green onion and jalapeno, the meat was sort of dry, not the sort of thing a taqueria wants to be known for imho. They now have a small salad bar full of various salsas and garnishings so you can change the flavor of just about anything on the menu if that's your thing.I usually go here for lunch because it's near work, sure there are other joints out there but this place wins for me because the staff is super friendly, quick and at least they keep the place clean.

Looks like they're changing their name, but in the mean time, they really need to focus on cleaning up the place and redesigning the seating area. Since we wanted a burger and have never tried this place before, we decided to give it a try. The menu took me by surprise as I just expected burger items and instead saw many Mexican dishes, but I wanted a burger and a giant one. Well, what it turned out to be is a thin mashed patty in between a huge bun slathered with onions, lettuce, tomato, and mayo. The meat was non-existent so I discarded one of my buns and made a "burgaco". A burger taco instead. I opted for chili fries instead of plain and the green chile tasted more like a chile soup rather than a traditional green chile. I really wanted just to have a cup of soup and crackers instead of swimming chile fries. For $20, it wasn't that great. As for the inside, it is dirty and nasty, but not the dive type of dirty, ya know what I mean? It's gross. We won't be back unless they really clean the place up and do something about that giant burger. A giant burger shouldn't just be a giant bun, it should include at least a good side burger patty inside.

The food was great, but they were just burgers. Aside from getting my order wrong, it was juicy and made the way I asked.There were kids running around with bare feet, which was kind of a downer when it comes to safety and hygiene. Other than that, I'll likely hit this place up again.

the place is kinda scary looking, but when you try the food, all that worry subsides and you can only think of how good the food is. LOL The service leaves something to be desired, but all in all the place is good.

6" Burger, fries and a drink for $5.50...what you see is what you get...I ordered a double with bacon no cheese and paid $7.25. The burger made to order and the way I wanted it, really good and really tasty and for the price no chain can match it! No seasoning on the burger which is handmade and no salt on the fries which for someone like me which is on a low sodium diet, I figured it at about 500-600mg for the whole meal which is unheard of in fast food...The salt would've been in the bacon (2 slices at about 150-200mg), mustard (25-50mg) and the bun (200-250mg) the experience was normal though the owner came out to see what I thought of his burger, restrooms were clean...I'll be back...this is the kinda place that should be on diners, drive ins and dives because this is a dive but a really good one for the value...

Its a great place to come down for a real burger. Staff if very friendly and the gentleman that owns the place works hard to keep things in tip top shape i see him everytime i go there. The burger itself is not overly seasoned so you can add salt+pepper to suit your taste which is a fantastic thing in my opinion since im sensitive to high sodium levels in food. The shakes are made from real ice cream not some high fructose corn syrup crap like the big MD "restaurants". Fryes are made to order as well and seem to be hand cut their fresh as far as i can tell. Green chile fries are really good too. Overall a good place to enjoy some good ol cooking like it should be. Its cheap too!! the 6" Burger, fries and a drink for $5.50 is a great deal, i can see other places charging $15-$20 for the same thing. Definitely worth a visit.

I come here for lunch some time. I have to admit, it is a pretty big burger. I just wish the patty was a little thicker. I would definitely suggest two patties or bacon. The deals they have there are pretty awesome. It's about 5 bucks for a burger, fries and a drink. They have a good amount of items, and they definitely don't stiff on the amount of food. The place is a pretty laid back. Small, family owned, but I would go back for what you get. I wouldn't say it's the best burger in town, but I would say it's still a pretty big one. It lives up to it's name.

So amazing... $.99 street tacos that are really delicious. A little dirty but adds to the authenticity. Definitely give it a try.
