Badas Burgers

Yall. Top 3 on my list of favorite burger spots in SD. I love me a burger and a fried chicken sandwich and they have BOTH! (In addition to bacon chorizo fries and buffalo fries). They're a food truck vs a brick and mortar spot but they do a great job of creating a sit down and enjoy a meal vibe with what they got! You can always count on fast, friendly service and great music. But most importantly, EVERY single burger and sandwich they make hits the spot!!! I mean every single item on this menu is absolutely fantastic. I crave they're chicken sammich weekly. When they were solely based out of Santee I was going there every couple of weeks...it was an issue. But luckily they're daily deals made things a hell of a lot more affordable haha. I'm so delighted with the quality and consistency of this place. I will always support them. Hopefully they can continue to create a good following and have a static location in addition to a mobile service. I would love to go whenever I want versus when their calendar allows but I guess it's better for my wallet this way lol.Go check them out when you get the chance!! You won't regret it!!

Badas Burgers did an amazing job for my husband's 50th birthday. The food was fresh and delicious and the crew provided excellent service. Coordinating a surprise party was a breeze they showed up on time and they were incredibly friendly and all my guest enjoyed being able to order the full menu. Everything was a hit but the Bourbon Bacon Jam burger was fantastic!! I would highly recommend this food truck for your next event.

We tried to use Badas for a high school graduation event several years ago but were unable to work it out. Then covid hit and we didn't have events like that. Last year we were able to finally book them for our event. It was easy. They showed up and made burgers for about 80 students and faculty. The burgers are huge. So be prepared. The vegetarian option is a portobello burger which done people lived, but some had aversions to mushrooms. They were easy to work with and I hope to be able to book them again in the future.

We heard that Badas burgers was back and decided to try them after having a subpar experience before they closed.... That experience was a wild one to say the least. Glad to see they're not draining their oil into trash cans anymore. Knowing the county's department of health regulations as a business owner myself, it was concerning to see they weren't abiding by certain rules. Glad to see things have changed as I said. We bought 2 el chingons and a classic last night for our family. After about 15-20min, we got our order and headed home just down the way. The fries were ultra crunchy but lacked flavor. The burgers were subpar again and lacked flavor. They tasted previously frozen and just very devoid of taste. They definitely pulled those out of their fridge/freezer and tossed them on the grill without a dash of anything. I would've taken a dash of sweat in all honesty. To make things absolutely worst.. the whole point of this review.... All 3 of us are experiencing less than desirable stomach and digestive issues if you know what I'm saying. Badas won't be on our rotation again in the future. This was ultra disappointing. Please express caution when trying this food truck and feel free to look up their food grading history on the county's website.

I hate to do it, because I had such amazing food before, but just got two burgers delivered, both ordered medium, both some of the driest hunks of meat I've ever had in my life. Like eating sawdust dry. Even worse though, is the sorry excuse for French fries we got. I added two orders of fries so the kids would have munchies. At $6 per order, it's not exactly cheap, but figured the kids would be happy. Instead, we got 53 (I counted) soggy, sad, lifeless fries. Almost 25 cents a fry for some barely warm nonsense, that probably came from the local freezer section. I've legit had frozen store brand fries that tasted better.It's just a shame, because this place used to put out epic food. Big, juicy burgers, full of amazing flavors. Hot, fresh fries. And most importantly, quality and serving sizes that actually match the price paid.I may give them another try again if I happen on the food truck in the future, but just can't see myself ordering from them again, given such a poor turnout this time around.

Food truck sits at the liquor store close to Mast and Magnolia in Santee. Tried the Buffalo Chicken Fries... they were REALLY good! Definitely will try again!

Welcome Back!!! Great food, great portions! They never disappoint! Best friendly service!

I'm not sure how to pronounce Badas Burgers, though I think the name may be missing an "s" - on purpose. One thing's for sure, this place will surely keep you guessing!!We drove out to Santee, not knowing what to expect, but this spot, in scorching weather, bringing to mind the fire-y flames emblazoned on the truck was tip notch!There was shade, around back, soda options in a cooler, and a menu packed with flavor, a full range of options, and all the makings of a fiesta in your mouth!I had their bestselling, double Patty, spicy burger option and boy was it a treat! The flavors were bold, like the glorious bull painted by the flames on the truck, and packed full of flavor with caramelized onions and the perfect helping of melted cheese.The Buffalo chicken fries were downright decadent with a light sour-cream dressing, chives, and crispy, flavorful chicken tenders.Really the best burger I've had in a long time!! Stop by this spot when you're in Santee, they make burgers like no other!!!

Badas Burgers came for a community event. I ordered the Hot as Fork burger with a side of fries. Fries were nicely seasoned and crispy. The burger was good in flavor and freshly made, but was different than the description displayed on the side of the truck (no pickled onions and no tomato). Overall 4/5 but since the order wasn't as expected, it's a 3.5/5 for me.
