Got the #1 CaliBurger and a chocolate milkshake. First time walking in it gave me truck stop vibes. The young man at the counter was nice and friendly. When I got home the burger was really fresh and was really good. A bit much sauce but, in all fairness every where puts too much sauce on for me. The bacon was really tasty and the buns were great. The shake was amazing it had chocolate syrup drizzled inside the cup for presentation. It impressed me. I should have taken pictures.‍ If I took one now it would have to be of how fat my sister, husband and I got eating the food. Also the prices were reasonable actually less expensive than Carls Jr. Fresher ingredients than Carl's Jr. as well. read more

Had I known that the chicken sandwich burger were just chicken tenders slapped on between the buns, I would not have ordered it. The fries are always solid here but other than that, my meal was disappointing. There wasn't anything wrong with the chicken tenders either, they were standard - maybe a bit on the thin side. Just doesn't belong on a sandwich imo! read more

This is yet another solid place! Have tried multiple food items from here and all of them have been fire! The dirty burger is probably my favorite! Onion ring, chili, smashed burger with cheese on top on fries! Oh my goodness! I really like this place! Their onion rings are fire too!! The dirty dog is fire! Chili cheese tots you guessed it, Fire! Hawaiian burger, fire! The Hawaiian chicken sandwich, Fire! When we want to eat out and not sure where to go, if anybody says this place it's always yes! Haha This is based on to go items. read more

Had to grab a quick bite before a road trip out of San Diego. I checked Yelp as usual and came across Cali Stack (was actually wondering about the place a while back) Glad I did because it was quick fresh and delicious. Tons of stuff on the menu,.. burgers, chicken, hot dogs,. Onion rings, fries, etc.. and the prices were perfect.. cold beer on tap or bottle, soda.. all kinds of good stuff. Thank you guys I'll definitely be back!! read more

Food and service were great! Bbq burger was delicious and fast and friendly service as well

Great menu options and service. I highly recommend this place! They won't disappoint and surely you will find a great option

Good food at great prices. Friendly and accommodating staff. Ordered #29 that here on Yelp says comes with fries. Upon discovering no fries when I got back home they said they'd give me the fries since it's a mixup on Yelp's end. read more

I stopped going because sometimes it was good.it was hit and miss one time the avocado was totally brown on the burger. So I said no more.

We finally ate here tonight and I'm so glad we did. The burgers were a 10/10. I got nacho cheese on my fries and it was incredible. The service was great and the place was clean. This will be a regular spot for our family. Hadley (9 years old): I loved it! The burgers were so crispy and the fries were amazing! I would love to go there again. read more

We wanted to try Cali stack for dinner, so I went onto the toast app and ordered a curbside pickup order. I ordered the grilled chicken teriyaki sandwich with no lettuce and no onion, my husband ordered the Mac n cheese chicken sandwich and we got an order of chili cheese tater tots to share. We arrived to pick up the order but we could not see a sign for curbside pickup, so my husband got out and went into the restaurant to grab the order. Our food was hot and fresh and nicely packed, although they did not give us any napkins. My grilled chicken teriyaki sandwich was delicious and I would definitely order it again. My husband's Mac n cheese fried chicken sandwich was underwhelming. My husband said that it looked like a frozen chicken patty like you'd get at jack in the box and there was barely any Mac n cheese on the sandwich. My husband said he would not order that sandwich again but he would try something else next time. We both liked the chilli cheese tater tots. Overall, a tasty meal and we would for sure go back again abd try something else they have to offer. read more

Stopped by after seeing the street advertising flags so much I had to finally try it. Before me and my girlfriend went in we checked the yelp reviews to see if it would be a waste of time only because we are really hungry and didn't want the normal fast food slop. After checking the up reviews and seen the 4.5 stars, we were excited to try it out. I got the bacon cheeseburger Callie stack and was not disappointed for thick slices of bacon on a hefty patty and a delicious soft bun. My girlfriend got the spicy chicken sandwich and she was also not disappointed. If she says it's spicy then it's definitely spicy. She almost finished it but had a great snack for later alongside our garlic fries. We shared a garlic fries with the garlic sauce on the side as a dipping sauce it was amazing!! Good spot for that home cooked burger feel!! read more

I have driven by this place numerous times and wasn't really interested in walking in. It just doesn't have the attractants on the outside however I decided to conduct a stress test. I ordered simple Cali burger, but I wanted it uniquely made, and I made several different attempts at different types of payments just to see the level And it was amazing. The young lady at the counter cool calm collective the entire time Then once it was paid for I asked several questions regarding to the menu and she still remain calm. My order arrived shortly after I got a buzz on a device that they handed to me and with a smile, she hand me my plate I began to devour this creation, only defined amazing delightfulness in every bite. Good job if I could give more stars I would this test is complete thank you. I would definitely say the ambience was great as well definitely filling the empty appetite and with a smile and true compassion this place reaches the max stars. Furthermore, would highly recommend this place for families as well . read more

Always love going here trying new burgers. My favorite thing is the chili cheese fries always hot and generous amount. The change to the onion rings I do not like AT ALL. But their bbq sauce is really good. Customer service is good and restaurant clean. read more

Great customer service. Clean looking place. The cheese broccoli soup was horrible. We threw it in the trash. It was very thick not like a soup. It was loaded, and I mean loaded, with salt. read more

This burger spot is a go to. The service is great and the food is even better. Any choice is great but my go to is the bacon stack.

There's a new burger spot in town! It's pretty good, but with a little tweaks here and there, they can be a lot better. I had the Classic Stack Burger combo for $11.99. It came with a Angus Classic Cheese Burger, house fries, and a beverage. It's a pretty good deal. I asked the gentlemen at the counter if they could temp my burger at medium or a nice pink, but I received a well done burger. I little more training with the line cook would be beneficial. On a good note, the classic burger was very tasty. The burger came with pickles, although they forgot to place pickles in my burger, tomatoes, red onions, cheese, lettuce, and cali sauce on a brioche bun. As a whole, the burger was tasty, and I appreciated the charring on the exterior of burger, which resulted in added flavor. The fries were good, but a little inconsistent. There were more flimsy ones and crispy ones in the mix. The seasoning was good and they tasty good. Service was friendly and food came out in a good manner. I like forward to trying their fried chicken sandwich. read more

Just found this place by accident last night. They are new and cool. The place is clean and simple to navigate the menu. Both the Philly and Cali stack burger were both delectable. It is hard to beat a brioche bun and crispy French fries like what they serve here. Service was welcoming and fast, for a new place that is impressive as it takes weeks/months for other places to work out the kinks. They are still in a soft opening and training new staff as it is difficult to find people willing to work in this area. Hope this place thrives as this area was lacking a real burger joint. For sure will be back! read more

Just finished our first meal at Cali Stack burgers in Lakeside. It's on Woodside Ave and easy to find. I found out they are just coming up on the anniversary of their first year of being open.

A nice sized patty which was cooked perfectly, giant pieces of bacon and the bun was soft and delicious. The fries are crispy outside and soft inside. The restaurant is very roomy and there were plenty of seats available while we were here. It's very nice and clean. The staff is very good. Really friendly and attentive.
