Everyone from the hostess to the waiter (Michael) to the server, and the cook, was amazing. They are so welcoming and friendly. One of the best services at a restaurant I've experienced. The food quality is worth the prices. Their Antonio burger tastes refreshing and their guilty burger, well as it is named , guiltily full of flavor. Paired the burgers with onion rings and garlic fires. To over indulge, we also ordered their buffalo hot wings which were made in the right amount of hot sauce . I can positively admit that this has become one of my favorite burger spots now (: read more

A friend recommended American Grub, thank you! When you walk inside it just feels like a place you want to eat "American Grub"! The menu is detailed, you just have to pay attention to things like the burgers don't come with condiments unless you ask for them, especially if you're getting your order to go! The food was really good & exactly what we were expecting. The service was great as well, the staff are very attentive. Happy that it's local, we will be going back! read more

This was the second time I had eaten here. I ate the AG Turkey. Sandwich which was amazing. It has a fried egg special sauce with turkey and cheese on sourdough. The food servers were very friendly and engaging. The restaurant itself was very clean along with the bathrooms, which is very important to me because I am very germ conscious. read more

The website pictures look amazing. When we arrived the restaurant was smaller in person. Immediately, the host greeted us in a such a warm and welcoming way. The staff was so professional and the place is well managed. We ordered two sandwiches and were treated to some home made potato salad. It felt warm and inviting. We had a breakfast burger and a French dip sandwich. Unfortunately, the food was not as good as the service. The burger was dry and lacked anything fresh. There was very little seasoning, sauce, or freshness. I hate to say it, but the meat tasted frozen and old. My French Dip was the same. The meat tasted old and dry. The front of the house staff was so nice. They earned a five star rating. The kitchen needs updating. Let's use some fresh ingredients? The food lacks freshness and flavor. read more

Was on a mini road trip from San Diego to Anaheim for a concert wanted something quick but not fast food. Found this cute little gem in the cutest little town. Easy street parking on the main strip and cute ambiance. Service and quick and our servers were really nice. Food was delicious but a little pricey! Cute spot would recommend if you're passing through the area. read more

This was a nice little find, thanks to our fellow Yelper's! There is both inside and outside service. The staff is very friendly and helpful when making our ordering decision. The restaurant ambiance was very friendly. Diana was our server. Very nice. Very sweet. Fellow Yelp'ers were very helpful by their comments on the Fried Green Beans with the Jalapeño sauce. These critters are terrific! I warn you now, these critters could become addictive! My wife and I each ordered the same special...a cup of Clam Chowder and a half of Roast Beef sandwich. Other sandwich options are available. The chowder had a ton of clams!. However, we both prefer our chowder thicker, theirs was a bit thin for our taste. Our half sandwich was very nice. This was a very nice find. We plan on paying another visit in the future. read more

Pastrami burger for me, shrimp and farro salad for the wife -- both crushed it. The pastrami with the swiss and pickles is the real deal, and the rosemary fries almost stole the show (get those). Her salad was legit too, garlic shrimp with farro so it actually fills you up. Zero complaints. We'll be back. read more

It is always a pleasure to support local businesses here in Tustin, and American Grub has certainly impressed me in several key areas. I wanted to share some comprehensive feedback regarding a recent experience, aiming to highlight both your successes and areas where further refinement could elevate the customer journey even further. First and foremost, I must commend your team for their exceptional warmth and hospitality. From my initial phone call to the moment I picked up my order, I felt genuinely welcomed and valued. This level of customer service, which often feels lacking in many establishments today, truly sets American Grub apart. It creates a welcoming atmosphere that significantly enhances the overall experience, and I sincerely hope this commitment to friendliness remains a cornerstone of your operation. However, I encountered a couple of points that, in my personal opinion, warrant consideration for improvement. Regarding the payment process, I felt a degree of apprehension about providing my credit card details over the phone. While I understand the operational need to secure orders and prevent potential losses, particularly for larger transactions, for a single item like my bacon cheeseburger, priced at $17.24 including tax, this practice felt somewhat disproportionate. I also noted the 99-cent fee for online payments, which, while minor, might deter some customers who are seeking convenience without additional charges. Perhaps exploring alternative secure payment links for phone orders or adjusting the fee structure for smaller transactions could enhance customer comfort and streamline the process. My primary concern, however, arose upon returning home. Despite ordering a bacon cheeseburger, I discovered the burger completely lacked bacon, as well as any form of sauce or mayonnaise. This oversight had a significant impact on the meal; the absence of these core components rendered the burger quite bland and far from the experience I had anticipated. When ordering a single item, the expectation for meticulous attention to detail is particularly high, as there are fewer variables. Consequently, the overall value of the meal, given the missing ingredients, was not quite met on this occasion. I did reach out to the owner privately via email to discuss these points, and I appreciate their responsiveness and transparency in addressing my feedback, particularly concerning the rationale behind the phone payment policy. It is reassuring to know that your business is open to customer input. My hope is that these observations can serve as constructive input, allowing American Grub to continue refining its excellent service and product quality. I remain a supporter of your local endeavor and look forward to seeing these aspects addressed. Thank you for reaching out. To clarify, all my reviews and communications are crafted solely from my personal experiences and genuine perspectives, not AI. Every word and insight you read is authentically mine, driven by my commitment to provide honest feedback. Even though the review was long..(lol) I wanted to make sure the details are accurate and understandable. Plus I think you and your establishment are great and I wanted to detail that as well Kimberly. read more

A nice little American cuisine in old town Tustin. It looks like burgers are one of their signature items since they have a nice variety of them. Out of all of them, I chose the Wyatt Earp because it had Apple wood bacon, bbq sauce, onion ring and cheddar. Make sure to get it medium that way it's still juicy. You have to get fries if you are getting a burger. They have a good variety from sweet potato fries to regular fries and some with seasoning. I was recommended the Cajun Fries which always sounds good when you have that old bay spice. As it sounded, the burger was very tasty, and juicy. Had really nice smoked flavor from the bacon there. The fries were cooked just right bad it was crispy and tender in the middle. The place itself has a nice ambiance and they have outside seating with heaters as well. read more

Came out here several times and thought I wrote a review one of those times but guess nots. Can't believe it as this place Absolutely spectacular burgers. Their classic hamburger/cheeseburgers are just superb. Add the garlic fries cuz they're amazing. This past weekend we decided to try something different. Got the hot pastrami sandwich (toasted rye bread with decent amount of pastrami slices and pickles) and Antonio burger (angus patty with cilantro/jalepeno, pico, avocado, lettuce, and pepper jack cheese). The former was pretty standard. The latter I would pass on, just better on taco than a burger. Nevertheless pretty good burger in old town Tustin. Very cute western vibe. Would recommend checking this place out if you're looking for some good juicy burgers. read more

We did some research - and decided to make the drive from Yorba Linda to have an early lunch on a rainy Sunday morning. We loved it. Great service, and the food was delicious. My wife had the Breakfast Burrito, and I had the Wyatt Earp Burger (great barbecue sauce). The price was reasonable. We enjoy trying new places with good food and a great atmosphere - and we love supporting local small businesses. Highly recommended! read more

Came to American Grub to for lunch today. Came with the family and my sister and her family. Service was good. Michael was our waiter and took very good care of us. I order a bacon cheeseburger which was perfect, hubby ordered a pastrami burger which he said barley had any pastrami, sister ordered a guilty burger which was made exactly as asked and was perfect, brother-in-law ordered a Nashville chicken sandwich and said he would've liked the chicken to be a bit thicker. We orderer garlic fries, garlic tots, rosemary fries, and regular fries with a side of ranch which was really yummy! And we ordered two kids mac n cheese with watermelon and fries. We also ordered a toffee cake dessert with ice cream and bread pudding dessert with ice cream delicious. Restaurant was somewhat busy but wait was not long we got seated fairly quickly. read more

Update on my review. I remembered the last time I was here the mushroom burger was amazing. Tonight I came here with my little nephews. We ordered a few burgers and we asked for medium and they came out well done, really dry. Burgers just tasted bland tonight. Kinda disappointed with our dinner. The garlic fries and tater tots were still a hit though. read more

Food was amazing service was spot on. We sat outside for evening meal, and the weather was perfect!

We came in on a Sunday afternoon and we taken right away. We were originally in Anaheim but this place was highly rated on Yelp so we did the 20 minute drive. ABSOLUTELY WORTH IT!! We started off with the garlic tots. The tots were perfectly crunchy without being burnt or soggy. The fresh garlic has a sharp bite but the Parmesan cheese cools it down. Next we got their Mac n cheese because we saw they use pepper jack in it. That cheese brings a very subtle spice and has a smooth ending taste that makes you want to go back for another bite. The bacon just adds to the flavor and gives it a nice smoky edge. For the burgers, we got their guilty burger and bacon cheeseburger. They came with a small sample size of their potato salad. These burgers were so yummy we were silent for minutes with how focused we were on the food. I also added some Mac n cheese to my burger and it just took it over the edge! I love a good Mac n cheese burger. Our server was Tiffany and she was such a sweet loving energy. She joked with us at the table and made our stay here even more enjoyable. We are looking forward to coming back and trying their desserts! The bread pudding and waffle sundae look amazing! read more

I found this place randomly after getting off work early, and I will 100% be returning! The staff was super friendly and amazing, and the food was PHENOMENAL. I got a nice glass of wine, the salmon sandwich, and the breaded fried pickles with cream cheese which were so good I ordered more to go the second I found out they were one of the limited time specials on the menu. So glad I found this place! read more

Very cool little eaterie in downtown Tustin. The staff is super friendly, and they will have some recommendations for you, which is a good sign that they are fans of the food they serve. It's a woman owned & operated establishment, so you know it's gonna be well organized, running smoothly, and just a great place to dine and work at. They're open on some holidays like Memorial Day and 4th of July, but they do close for the major ones like Easter, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years. I absolutely love the brick interior and decor. It's got a very hip and inviting vibe both inside and out on the patio. And the big textured painting on the wall by the register is a great addition. Now to the food. There are so many options to choose from, even with just the sides! They actually have 7 different types of fries on the menu, a few tots flavors, garlic cheesy bites, fried green beans, and then the standards like potato salad, onion rings, and mac & cheese. The burgers are big and juicy, the spicy chicken has just enough spice, and the fries have just the right amount of seasoning. Oh and there are a couple of options for the non-meat eaters too. And last to mention, but not least, you gotta get one of their desserts to end the meal. They have many options for that as well! I would even say to add a homemade brownie bite to finish after your main dessert. They are perfection and small enough to literally be one bite, so it won't be too much. You will thank me! This is definitely a gem with fresh high quality ingredients and lots of homemade deliciousness! read more

I couldn't believe this was my third time at American Grub and have never written a review. This place was always chosen by someone else and every time it has gotten a little bit better. Today I got the Steak Sandwich which our lovely server listed in the daily specials. Pretty good, I had to add a little salt to give it some more flavor, but it was juicy and the hoagie bread was delicious. Marlene ordered some garlic fries, I'm not a fan, but I ate more than half of the generous portion.....they were good. Our server Shauna was outstanding, as well as the other two servers who made sure we were well taken care of This place has really grown on me, I'll be coming back soon for that pastrami burger. Thanks AG! read more

It's funny. We've been here many times. And every time I feel the same way. The food is not anything that you would expect to impress you. It's basic diner style of food. But then the food comes out and the quality is awesome. Like, I'm not sure how they make things that appear so very basic, so good. We have had salads, burgers, breakfast burritos, tuna, beer... and they have all been excellent. Can't wait for them to reopen. read more

This is a clean, cute restaurant. The staff were friendly and seated us quickly. The menu has so many options.

I ordered the steak sandwich, and flavor-wise it was really good. The steak was cooked well and the service was solid. About halfway through eating it, I noticed mold on the other half of the bread. I didn't want to make a fuss, so I asked for fresh bread and they brought it out quickly, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, after finishing the steak, I had some of the "fresh" bread left, flipped it over, and found mold on that bread too. Same issue, second time -- so I definitely ended up eating mold. What makes this more frustrating is that we made a 40-minute drive because we really like this place. Everything else was fine, but getting moldy bread twice in one visit is not okay. read more

The service was so great. They were all happy and welcoming RIGHT AFTER the lunch crowd. My husband and I both thought our sandwiches were some of the best!! I got the French dip and it was perfect! Thinly sliced roast beef. Mmmm Most places put thick slices or use thick slices of prime rib but imo it takes away from the sandwich. You should be able to taste everything in what you're eating and when it's chunky or overloaded, that's all you taste. Hubby got pastrami and he loved it. He's a big lover of Philippe's in LA and will drive from OC to get it, but this is much closer and we will be going back... frequently. read more

American Grub - My delicious French dip - Burgers Near Me - Tustin, California

We were craving for French dip and yelped for best place for French dip, and American Grub was one of the entries listed. Since it was close to my work, I went there. I ordered French dip, regular fries, garlic fries, 7 pieces of buffalo wings and teriyaki chicken sandwich (protein style). The service was nice. It was to go and tipped generously. While waiting, I crossed the street to a bookstore and stumbled on an author event (Mom and daughter of Umma cookbook). It was fun! Anyhow, I went back and picked up the good. Went home and unpacked by food. First - There NO au jus (dip) for the French dip. The sandwich was DRIED. I ordered garlic and regular fries. I got two "pizza" boxes of A LOT of regular fries. Chicken wings tasted good but also on the dried side. I asked for blue cheese (for the wings) and got ranch dressing instead. My chicken sandwich was OK, with pieces of lettuces thrown on top of the chicken and tomato slices. Check your to-go order to make sure everything is there. I gave it a 3-star rating because I see potentially good food here. However, the to-go sloppiness is inexcusable. It was an expensive, "unsatisfying" dinner. read more
