Last Sunday while dining with a relative, I was made aware of a place called Backwoods Burgers…read morelocated in Oakdale, CA. As this person knew what kinds of foods I liked, and had just dined there, it went to the top of my "let's go" list. As I happened, today my wife had the day off so away we went. Wow is all I can start with. From the moment another held the door for us, to the friendly greeting and smile of the young lady who waited on us at the counter to the decor and design inside and out, we immediately loved it. We found what we needed on the simple menu, accommodations from the git go, to even having a knife to cut our burgers in have (we rarely eat the whole thing right away). SOLID experience all around. Two burgers, sweet potato fries, fried zucchini and two ice teas was our meal. The burgers were tasty, the sides great, the staff on point start to finish, Ashley was our server and did an OUTSTANDING job all the way. We even had another customer hold the door on the way out. When I went to take a picture as we left, another fellow stopped so as not to walk into my shot. Wow again. If you love burgers, and are nearby, you need to try these folks' fare. You won't regret it.

I always drive by here and was curious to go! They have little lights outside of their building…read morewhich you can't miss going down Oakdale street! I had always wanted to try it because it looked so inviting and I loved a good cheeseburger. We came with a party of 8 for my twin cousins birthdays and they were EXTREMELY nice and accommodating even though they do not take reservations they really helped us out to big tables together to include everyone and one of the servers with the long braid, forgot her name but gosh she was the SWEETEST and I love chatting with her! 10/10 service!! The food was absolutely delicious I noticed on the menu they sure has some GOOD lookin sandwiches but since it was my first time dining there, an their known for their burgers, I got the smashed cheeseburger which was SO good the cheese was delicately melted to perfection, I couldn't notice my cousin got the "mac and cheese burger" interesting choice but she had been there many times and swore on oh! Now the garlic fries and ranch? Those were spectacular! They even come out and sing happy birthday with banana pudding but we brought our own cake beverage it was such a big party. All and all it was DEElicious and I'd love to return to try their pesto chicken sandwich this place was perfection and made my cousins birthday dinner totally perfect!!!

Impression: First time visiting this place. I have always…read moreheard great things about it. I have been to quite a few places in Oakdale but always just rolled by this spot. The inside is old school food place with photos of nostalgia of the country. Flow: You can call in and pick up for fast service or drop in and wait to be seated. It could be a long wait or it could be fast depending on the line. The service is fast though. They don't dilly dally and waste your time. If you are going to dine in you need to go to the counter and put your name in. Food: Leo Camarillo- You can order with pastrami, roast beef or both. (Not half and half) Lots of cheese and sautéed mushrooms. If you're not a mushroom fan just skip. This is so delicious I have been thinking about it ever since we got it. My wife doesn't like mushrooms and she still ate with the shrooms on. We ordered pastrami only. No ragrats! French Dip- My kids ate both halves and didn't even hook it up with a bite! It was juicy and the dip was perfect. Always add the cheese. The Italian- Loved the Italian. It had a lot of meats on it and the veggies were fresh. Topped with an Italian dressing. Salads- Pesto salad was my favorite. Excellent flavor. No heartburn. Spaghetti salad was the sleeper. Very unsuspecting. I thought it was going to be cold spaghetti sauce but it was tomato's and Italian dressing/seasoning. Potato salad was ok. We added pepper and salt. We ordered 3 sandwiches for 4 people and came home with an untouched half because there was so much food. Bill was less than $60 for all the food and the soft drinks. Will definitely be a frequent haunt now.

Nope!! This is not it!…read more I previously wrote a great review over 2 years ago. I was in the area and decided to pick up dinner. I payed $10.83 for a spicy chicken sandwich, small fry , & a small Diet Coke. Fries were cold . Threw away. They didn't give me a straw and I asked for one for my drink. Chicken sandwich was horrible!!!! Patty was very thin , not warm , & tasted like it's been sitting for a while. So bad . I payed through app and when I got to speaker I let them know that. When I got to window the young girl asked me for money and I told her I already payed. She had to go ask someone. I can't believe how bad my meal was !! And for over $10. I will not be coming back.

I was working in Oakdale today and not being familiar with the area, I turned to yelp to find a…read moreplace for lunch. The name of the business has "Classic Drive In", in the title. When I think Classic drive in, I think American Graffiti, or Sonic where they come out to your car. This isn't that! It is located on a corner with a small parking lot. Best way to describe the building is kind of like a Foster's Freeze where you park somewhere and walk up to the small hole-in-the-wall type building and place your order at a small window. This should not be a deterrent though. Some of the best places are hole in the walls. I was met by a friendly gentleman who took my order. I ordered the Mushroom and Swiss Ranch burger with a side of onion rings. No, the burger didn't have "ranch" on it. It took me a minute to realize that was a category of burger...like ranch style burger. It was a burger that the gentleman said, "you won't be picking it up to eat it. It is a knife and fork type of burger!" MAN, HE WASN'T KIDDING! When I picked up my order I was greeted by his wife who was even more friendly and inviting (if that is possible), than her husband. All-in-all, the burger was delicious, very nice toasted bun, loads of grilled mushrooms and red onions with a Chipotle Aioli sauce that gives it a little kick. The flavors blended well together. My only knock would be on the burger patty itself. It was a bit small. The flavor was there just not enough meat IMHO. For that I rate the burger 4/5 . The onion rings crispy on the outside and tender on the inside...the way they should be, 5/5 . Keep in mind I rate each establishment for the categories they are in. This is not a 5 star, high end restaurant. It is a classic hole in the wall, walk up to the window and order fast food category. Sometimes you just want a good burger, greasy fried food experience that tastes good. This place has that in spades...and it is delicious! I will be back.
