I live 10 minutes from this location and haven't been in 5 years. I quit going because the service was so incredibly slow you could sit in the drive thru line for 10-15 minutes with one other car. Went today and glad I did. The service was very fast, food was fresh, seasoned fries were fantastic and the window cashier (Michael) served us with a smile, which had never previously happened. Huge turnaround and will certainly return. read more

Husband was hungry so we made a first-time stop at a Lotaburger. He ordered and paid $11.89 for a "New Mexico Style" double LOTA Burger plus .50 extra for cheese. I checked the online menu when we got home and what he actually got was a regular LOTA Burger which is priced at $7.99. It came with a generous amount of dark green lettuce, two quarter inch thick slices of tomato, a large quarter inch thick slice of onion, an overly generous amount of mustard oozing out of the sadwich, and the pickle and cheese were missing. There was not a lota burger as the patty was thinner than the onion and tasteless. This was served on an overly dried out burger roll. His French fries were at least better than McDonalds' fries. The counter employee was curt with never a smile.. read more

terrible staff was very rude to me. And the food tasted expired. The ambiance was disgusting the tables were not cleaned at all. Overall this experience was terrible and would not come back. read more

Ordered a Frito pie for $9 after I added onion and lettuce, it was the worst frito pie I have ever had. DRY DRY DRY!!! Don't go here, go to QT and buy a bag of Fritos and save yourself $7. There was not enough chili to even moisten the chips, it was a bag of chips with a few onions and lettuce sprinkled on. Don't bother calling them if you're unhappy, they will just argue with you..and basically call you a liar. read more

If I could put zero stars I would, I specifically downloaded this app and made an account to put this review because my experience was so bad, the employees were rude, the food would've tasted fine if it was anything that I ordered, I tried to get a PLAIN burger with green chillies only and I got a cheeseburger with all the topping with (I kid you not) 3 small pieces of green chillies, the bun wash mush because it was SOAKED with mustard and to top it all off my soda was completely flat... such a disappointment ... onion rings were fine read more

sitting in the parking lot as i do this because it was so good! i got some chili and seasoned fries! waited for the chili but it was worth it because it was fresh AND they told me about the wait! my server was giovanni (possible mispell) and he was so kind even took my tray for me! it was very clean and not too loud! for coming later at night im happy it all tasted fresh! read more

Came here for lunch with the wife and kiddos. We got three burgers, two shakes, a chicken sandwich and large fries to share. The kids loved their shakes and the chocolate/ cherry combo was their favorite. The food was decent. My wife and daughter commented that the toilet paper was basically 1/2 ply, super thin and flimsy. read more

I'm not sure why Lotaburger gets so little attention! I was craving a burger so tried their signature Lotaburger double Green Hatch chile burger and it was unbelievably good for a fast food joint. Best burger I've ever had at a fast foot place and chiles add the perfect amount of kick. Great fries too and fast service! Will be back read more

I've been to 1 other Blake's in Tucson about 5 years ago. I was so unimpressed that I wrote the place off. But, if they stay open a few years, I'll give them another try. Maybe it was just a bad day that first time. Well today was the day. I tried again but this time at Craycroft and River.... I went inside so I could spend a few minutes with the menu. Apparently it's such a small menu you only need a single minute. That's a good sign, small menu, how can they get it wrong? I placed my order, 2 Lota burgers and a medium fry to go. The natural fries sounded great. Drove home... How disappointing! Yes there were 2 burgers (made properly, 1 was no onions) except the bottom bun (at least on 1 of the burgers, was stale!). And where are my fries? Nope, not in the bag. My wife said "go back and get your fries". Sorry, it's late and I'm tired. Disappointed and tired. No, not going back (except as I pass by tomorrow and ask for my $ back for the fries). read more

Not sure why there's so many bad reviews. I've been here a half dozen times and always had good service. Good, hot food served quick by friendly staff. Never had any issues. Clean location. I understand some people my not like the New Mexico style burgers. But you can ask for it to be made custom to what you want. Others want more or less Hatch Green Chili. Just ask for it on the side or or for extra or double Chilies. Some don't like the Al acrart style ordering, but this way you only get what you want. I don't make it to this side of town often, but when I do I always try to stop here for a bite to eat. read more

(Craycroft and River Rd.) Their food is good -- tasty and reasonably priced (less expensive than the golden arches place). I have made repeat visits and will continue to do so. You do have to wait while they cook and put together your order, but you know it will be freshly made. I recommend. read more

Took a chance on this place, despite mixed reviews. It was fast food, and there was not much more to it. The guy at the counter was friendly and my food came out after only a few minutes. The fries and burger were not greasy at all and everything tasted freshly prepared. read more

Great food!! Friendly staff!! Super clean. Dodd was delicious the hatch green chiles on the Blake's chicken sandwich is the only way to go!! Yummy season fries to dip in your vanilla shake is out of the park read more

Lotaburger is always a home run. The hatch green chiles top off any burger and they do just that here. That and the natural cut fries make it worth a stop. read more

I agree with the two stars...just like all owners of fast food in the Catalina Foothills you can tell they don't care at all. The quality of the food is terrible, service is bad. Turn around and go the other way...... Literally waited 10 mins for this mess. I know my bad for wanting a quick something to eat. SMH... read more

Why have I never tried hamburgers with green chili before?? This Loto burger with green chili is a game changer. I am legit contemplating how to create my own at home. I really enjoy the seasoned fries with their fry sauce and the shakes have great flavors...when the shake machine is working. Only downside is that sometimes the food takes a while to make so not entirely as fast food as you'd hope. I've also gone in the morning to try to get breakfast and they weren't open at the hours they said they were which was quite disappointing. Overall, enjoyed the new take on a hamburger with a SouthWest green chili sauce. Not perfect but I'll take this over many of the fast food hamburger chains. read more

Natalia has poor customer service she in red so assumed she a Lousy manager. They forgot our cheese in the burrito. Other customers they wouldn't listen to her ask for a spoon all workers were un attentive. Her food came raw. Maybe have no music on so they can hear Oh and a fly kept bothering read more

Great lota burger; could have used with less grease and more chili's - really fast indoor service and clean place to eat! Definitely coming back read more

The Lots Burger was delightful after the exciting football game, and the kids thoroughly enjoyed it. We topped it off with strawberry shakes for them. Grateful for the friendly customers! Thank you! read more

The burgers really aren't great. They loaded it with way too much mustard. By the time we got home, the bread was wet and soggy. Being a burger place, it's surprising that the breakfast burritos are the only kind of good thing on the menu. Just don't get hash browns on the burritos. They must be the cheap kind that come dried in a box... add water to hydrate them. Either that, or they are just really stale. Definitely will not eat there a second time. We will stick to Graze Premium Burgers!! read more

I was super disappointed in Blake's. I thought it was just like New Mexico Blake's and although they claim it's the same, the food is far different. First off the drive through is like waiting and dying a slow death. Granted the food is fresh but waiting 15 minutes with no one in front of you is annoying. The bun was very stale and blah. The burger itself had zero seasoning. I got the green chili/cheese burger. How can it have no flavor? Not sure, but it was flavorless. I had my hopes so high but unfortunately this place did not live up to the name. I'll stick with getting my fix when I'm in New Mexico. read more

I placed a order in the drive-thru with Blake and I could tell had a bad attitude on the speaker monotone and rude! as I pull up to the window he is making drinks and spills one of them and throws the lid up in the air and storms off then comes back throws his apron on the floor and continues to wipe the ice off the counter in a rage and stormed off again yelling with his hands in the air Then as he opens the window to receive payment I tell him do you know that I can see you throwing stuff and his response was "so what I'm not taking it out on you" very poor customer service and the employees were throwing trash on the ground outside the back doors read more

They've got the best chile dogs in the world. Their green chile is perfect New Mexico!! Love!

Was excited to try Lotta Burger on 7/20/21. The food was just ok but the wait was terrible! After waiting 20 minutes, two cars drove away before me. I had to wait even though they left because the orders were mixed up. We only ordered two shakes, a burger and fries. The shakes must've been sitting all the time we waited because they were completely melted. I never write reviews, but 30 minutes in the drive through is unacceptable. Maybe it'll save others some time. This was our first visit and our last. read more

Despite the bad reviews on here, we still decided to come here. I'm glad we did, so we now know not to come back. I ordered the lotta burger new mexico style and Bobbie a Frito Pie. Let me start with her Frito Pie, we both have been eating Frito Pie/pepper bellies all our lives. This one had a small amount of fritos in the bottom with lukewarm chili over them and topped with cheese and onions. The chili was not even able to melt the cheese when she stirred it in. My burger patty was also luke warm and had no hatch chilis on it, so I had to ask for a small cup of them. By the time I put them on the burger, it was mostly cold and unappealing. I ordered onion rings as a side, and although they appeared cooked right, the onion didn't have a good bite through, so on the first bite, the whole onion came out. And I might mention it took quite a while for us to get our food as many have pointed out here. So overall, it's not a good experience, and we now know. read more

Cook to order, friendly staff. Great for breakfast. Bacon breakfast sandwich is my fav

Blake's Lotta Burger is a huge disappointment. I do not recommend this business. Just about 9 out of 10 times here they have gotten my order wrong. The staff has argued with me about it. The wait times are crazy, we're talking and average wait of 15min if there is no line at the drive through. Lotta Burger is a prime example of how bad fast food service can be. It's a bummer because the food is actually pretty good. read more

We tried this location when they first opened and it was HoRrIbLe after a LONG wait... I decided to give them another try since they've been in business for a while, and it was AWESOME! The green chili burger was so so good, I forced myself to stop eating it so I could bring some home for later, and the onion rings were easily the best onion rings I've had in a long, long time! They were hot/freshly fried and tempura battered (the best!). I wasn't able to save any of those for later, haha. Great job, Blake's! read more

Please don't come here. I drove an hour and a half to get here. I get it. People come here for the name and because it's a New Mexico staple. Hatch green chilis and I understand. This place was absolutely disgusting. Just take a look at the tea machines all open for everyone to see. I can only imagine how our food is being prepared in the back where we (customers) can't see it. The only reason I gave it a one star because I couldn't give it a 0. The shift lead needs to work on her communication skills regardless of age and how young she is. she needs the tools to be able to handle everything and not be set up to fail. The poor girl was stressed and wasn't set up to have a successful night. The cooks in the back thought it was a joke and kept laughing. YOU NEED TO CLEAN THOSE TEA MACHINES EVERY NIGHT. There's no excuse for that. You can get people sick by being lazy and careless. read more

This is hands down the worst hamburger I've had in my life. Hard to describe how bad it is but it's just terrible on every level. Don't say you weren't warned. read more

Went here two times in the last week. Very non-busy and really great food. Both times my burgers looked exceptionally perfect with fresh vegetables and they looked like you'd see on a commercial. Delicious and awesome. Not cheap but on par with everything else these days. read more

First off the guy taking our order was being a little moody when I asked if I could buy some ranch his replies were sharp and with a few words, and when he gave me back my change he dropped it in my hand with an attitude . No greet from him or anything btw . The burgers had way too much sauce on them and was very soggy . Not to mention an employee was wearing AirPods which is a major health code violation during business hours. IM GRATEFUL WE WENT HERE SO THAT EVERYONE ELSE WOULD KNOW NOT TO. TO SUM MY VISIT UP IT WAS A WHOLE LOTTA DISAPPOINTMENT!!! read more

It was really really bad I asked for a burger and I ate a couple bites and then started vomiting and a bloody nose they POISONED

I moved to tucson 2 years ago and spotted a Blake's Lotaburger. Hadn't had one in 35 years, the first was outskirts of Santa Fe going back to Phx, A "Hatch" green chili burger, what else would you order! I procrastinated until today. I was very pleased with the burger, a big meat patty, a bricohe like bun to match the burger size. I order the Lotaburger, came with plenty of toppings, chilis were 50 cent more. Service was good, asked a second time if I had been waited on. They cooked the burger to order, wasn't reheated. Overall a great burger and good service. Wish I had tried the fries and a pina colada shake. Thanks! read more

I was the only customer in the lobby and I waited 15 minutes for a burger that wasn't cooked through. The bottom bun was almost completely soggy. Granted, I ordered to go but the drive home is a little over 5 minutes. I won't be returning. read more

Paid for a NM Hatch Chile burger but turned out to be a regular burger. The meat was very rubbery and salty. The fries were cold and not fresh. The price was very high. Waited 30 minutes in a drive thru that only had 2 other cars in it. Would not try this one again. read more

Today I saw the staff were mostly unmasked, a change from a couple weeks ago. When I asked about this I was told "it isn't required." I decided I wasn't required to order from them either and moved on. At this point in the pandemic, if you're an employer who doesn't care about the health and well being of your staff and customers enough to take such a basic public health measure, I'm just done. This location could have chosen to continue requiring masks as a very basic simple common-sense safety measure. They chose not to, so I chose to take my business elsewhere. read more

I read some negative reviews of this location but came here anyway. The workers were friendly, happy to be here and the dining area was very clean. Workers cleaned tables as soon as they were empty. If you know Blake's, they are famous for their green chili burger. It was fabulous. The chili had the right amount of heat and the burger was good. If you are looking a "secret sauce" type burger go to In and Out. This is the best fast food green chili burger hands down. read more

This place was awful. I think the staff was all new bc it took 10 min to get our food and they kept all staring at the screen. The burger patties are super dry as are the buns. I wished I had gotten McDonald's instead (yes it was that bad). It's unfortunate bc they are in such a prime location with virtually no other competition. I will not be returning. Would much rather drive further for a five guys. read more
