    Western burger
    Shawn M.

    California burger is an incredible place! Every-time I go it's so consistent and the food is very very good! It take a little longer than a normal drive thru, but it's worth it for the freshness. The burger was incredible along with the fries and the corn dog

    TRASH. Hard at Listening, Asked for a Chili Cheese Fry these Idiots gave me a Cheese Fry. Had to Drive back for it and They Tried to be Funny giving Me More Cheese than Chili, Unmelted and Cold at That. Bacon Burger wasn't Worth a Damn. Bacon was Chewy as Hell. I Assume They're Much Better At Making Tacos than Havin a Burger Joint ! Overpriced Low Quality Bullshit. Don't Waste your Time Here

    California Melt Sourdough

    Cali native here, and I could not believe how tasty the california melt was. Melt in mouth, delicious patties, crunchy lettuce, great secret sauce and overall awesome blend of flavors. I'm craving one as I'm writing it. Don't be afraid of the longer drive through wait, worth it!

    Disgusting piece of hair

    Their prices are overpriced for mid customers service and quality food. Why is there a piece of hair in my ranch idk? This makes me not even want to eat the food anymore. This is nasty.

    Over price for everything is about 20-25 per person considering on what you're getting. I always spend about 60$ on burgers and chilli cheese fries with banana splits and mozzarella sticks. You will have to wait about 30 min in the drive through. Do not order anything at the window because they will forget it even after you pay for it.

    First time here! N unfortunately the door were closed so we had to order thru the drive thru! However everything is freshly made per order! Much love tho! Looks great n the food was amazing

    Bacon cheeseburger. Good stuff!
    Bridget K.

    Unfortunately I don't have a lot to review. I went through the drive through and ordered a meal with a Dr. Pepper and was told it would be $12. I was shocked it was that expensive for fast food, but I heard it was great so I didn't mind too much. However, after I pulled up to the window and checked my food bag I noticed I only had a cheeseburger inside. I told the woman I had a meal and asked where my fries where. She told me they had only typed in a cheeseburger and Dr. Pepper. They didn't offer to give me some fries or even for me to pay more to get some. Then I was really confused how a cheeseburger and Dr. Pepper cost $12! I wish more restaurants/business had better customer service. It's unfortunate, because the burger was great, but I don't know that I'll be back due to having such a bad experience.

    This was one of the best melts I've had from a drive thru! They have alot of options from turkey burgers to veggie burgers to chicken sandwiches. My food came fast and everything was hot in the bag! I mean look how good this sandwich looks...

    This was a little fast food/burger joint ww found very close to Indianapolis Motor Speedway. The dining room was closed and all of their business was through the drive thru (hence not the best pictures. Sorry) The food however was worth the hassle of eating it in the car. Their crinkle cut fries were especially top notch as they were hot, crispy and super delicious. For my burger I dried a Double Cheeseburger which came with pickle, onion, lettuce, tomato, cheese, and a mayo variation which had a little kick to it. Really tasty and filling burger the meat and the sauce really stood out. The service was super friendly and the price was very reasonable so despite the lack of dining room I highly recommend this place.

    Double Bacon Burger
    Megan C.

    I didnt have any expectations when I decided to go to California burger. I showed up around lunch time on a Friday and only had to wait about 10mins total. My order was the double bacon combo with fries and a soda. I also go the Mozzarella sticks because, those are hard to mess up. The Mozzarella sticks were good. I would order them again. They are not big fat mozz. Sticks like you get at Arbys. They are more seasoned long slender sticks. The fries were not my favorite. I gave 4 stars for this reason. The fries were seasoned well, hot, and crispy. I am not a fan of crinkle cut fries so that is simply a preference. If you like fluffy crinkle cut fries, you will love these. Next time, Ill opt for the curlies. The double bacon burger was huge. I had a hard time finishing it. It was good, not amazing, but good. My car and hands smelled like onions for at least a day after eating this. Make sure to ask for extra napkins, its messy! Would I go here again, yes, if Im super hungry.

    Lettuce burger
    Niki B.

    After hearing about the multiple-hour-long lines forming here when it first opened, we opted to ... well, not wait and instead visit months later. The restaurant closes at midnight on Saturdays, so we were feeling hopeful when we pulled into the line at 11:45pm. We ordered in time (yay!), surprisingly, as the line was going pretty slow. We enjoyed the menu because it had some non-traditional fast food options such as mac & cheese bites, onion rings, lettuce-wrapped burgers, and fried cheese sticks. I went for the lettuce-wrapped burger and curly fries. The curly fries were soooo good (you can also get crinkle cut) and the burger was pretty good. There was a LOT of Thousand Island sauce on it, so it was dripping everywhere. No shame. Our friends enjoyed their food too and we would go back if we're in the area and are looking for a local, yet drive-thru option.

    I was having another fierce craving for onion rings and a hot dog, ya'll. It was Memorial Day do options were on the sparse side but this was a perfect opportunity to check out somewhere we hadn't been before. California Burger has been seeing wild lines since it opened last year so it was great to see we caught them in between the rush at 4pm (yet there was still a decent line). We ordered the chili dog, onion rings, zucchini fries and California double burger with bacon and avocado. It was all about the zucchini fries for me! They're hard to cone by and California Birger makes a tasty version. Oh, and we ordered the peanut butter shake...I know, it's a lot. In the end, I believe our total was around $25 and the drive they experience was both swift and friendly.

    writing this after visiting 3-4x . i enjoy the food but not the wait my food has been correct and the portions are good. this is a pricier fast food spot. i'll be happy when they make online ordering available! i probably won't be back again until then. i've had the salad which is huge and burgers, fries, and a shake on separate visits. i do appreciate fresh food each time

We started with the deviled eggs, an elevated take on a classic that set the tone early. They were well balanced, flavorful, and a perfect shareable to kick things off. For entrées, the table covered a solid range of the menu. The shrimp and grits, ordered by two in our party, stood out with rich, comforting flavors and a well executed balance of seasoning and texture. The wings brought a satisfying bite with just the right amount of crisp, while the burnt ends with fries leaned into bold, hearty flavors that didn't disappoint. The grilled chicken Caesar salad offered a lighter option but still delivered with fresh ingredients and solid execution. What truly elevated the evening, though, was the service. Skye, our waitress, was exceptional, attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable, and genuinely engaging. She kept everything flowing seamlessly for a larger group, which is no small feat. The overall atmosphere struck a great balance between upscale and approachable, making it an easy choice for both casual dinners and group outings. Bottom line, a well rounded dining experience with strong food, standout service, and an inviting environment. I'd absolutely recommend Conner's Kitchen + Bar and wouldn't hesitate to return.

Had two dishes, they were OK, service was ok Would I go back? Yes, if the red wine was chilled.
