Each Patty is 3 ounces so the double ends up feeling like a normal single. If you're a big eater I recommend two doubles. This location doesn't have chicken as an option like some of the others, but don't let that deter you. The service here is also a lot quicker and this location is less crowded than the one in Hollywood. There are tons of Smashburger options in the valley, oversaturated at times, and only a few true good options. For The Win sits among the top of the list of smash burgers to try in the valley!

I know there's multiple locations and I wonder if specific locations do it better. Idk. I did the double and it felt a little heavy eating it, but it was still delicious. I did sweet potatoes as my side and they were ok. A little flabby but not terrible to consume. My one downside is the AC wasn't working and man, with these heatwaves we've been experiencing, it's a must to have working AC.

There were a ton of flies everywhere, outside the store establishment and inside the restaurant as well. The burger was DELICIOUS, but their hours are horrendous; literally why do they have a restaurant if they're only open two days a week? Are they serious about their business? Maybe they should make sure that - during the few days that they're actually open - they should ensure that every part of the business works, and is devoid of insects.

Parking was available in a small parking lot right next to the establishment, and while it was a bit tight, there were plenty of spots! Just make sure you don't miss the turn for the lot! They had exactly the type of menu I was looking for. It was very diner in the sense that they had a delicious menu of burgers, fries, and all things fried that I was looking for...AND chili cheese fries. Carlos was the kind man who took our order. It was pretty empty on a Sunday early evening, and service was spot on. It was clean and cool inside and lots of seating outside too. With their combo deals, you can upgrade your regular fries to chili cheese fries for an extra $6.99. WORTH IT! Will definitely be back! The patty melt was everything!!

I really don't like giving 1 star reviews, but it is hard to find a saving grace from me and my…read morefamily's experience here last night. When we got there, there were only a few tables with guests in the whole restaurant, likely because we got there at 8pm and they close at 9pm. But we stood at the front for a few minutes before anyone greeted us, and when we finally were "greeted", a man just came up to us and looked at us with confusion and didn't say anything, just raised his eyebrows. I said, "Hi! We have 5 adults. May we sit outside please?" He said sure and guided us outside to our table with not much said. We waited quite a while before a server came over to us, and it ended up being the same guy that brought us to the table originally. He came over to us and said, "Drinks?" It was sort of awkward how unwelcome we felt. That was pretty much our entire experience with the server: very slow service, and very few words. Once we put our food order in, we grabbed the Uno deck at a neighboring table to play until the food came out. That was actually really fun! But we waited for the food for so long - playing multiple games of Uno with 5 people and still not having our food. It was painful - especially since it seemed there was not much going on around us. Our hope was the food would be a saving grace here to our first time experience at this restaurant, but unfortunately it was not. My father-in-law liked his salmon dish, and my husband said the steak melt was decent, rating it at a 6.5-7/10. My mother-in-law said she liked her French dip, but barely touched it. My sister-in-law's short ribs had way too much sauce on it and too much salt, so she could not finish hers either because of that. My truffle burger was overwhelmed by blue cheese to the point where you could not taste anything else, so I also could not finish mine because of that. In the end, we all spoke about it and the highlight for our family was that they had Uno available for tables to play. But unfortunately we all agreed we would never be back.

Fast food, but good food...Burger. I saw this Burger spot on…read moremy way home everyday. Temptation won. It's a neighborhood burger joint but the signage won me over. I ordered a single with cheese with crispy fries. I should have gotten a double. Anthony walked me through the menu. He was very helpful and nice I remember the crunch from the crispy lettuce. Fresh lettuce made it enjoyable. A thin patty cheeseburger yet tasty and filling. I asked Anthony what was happening outside. The owner set up a Taco stand also. There was a line of people. Guess that's my next stop.

My review of Bills was taken down by an uppity elite becasue they were so offended by the accuracy…read morethat your first time and all times to Bills is a spirtually awaking expereince mixed with purly blissful, intoxicating sensual healing. simply because Bill never allowed troglodyte like hipsters or trendy hoes to get to him. He was a badass that made them run crying becasue he was a Cat in training. He is Gone but his legacy still lives with Doug and Hiroko so ill write it again becasue these dummies gotta know. The Last Bastion of No-Nonsense Grit: Bill's Burgers isn't here to hold your hand. It's a visceral, smoke-scented institution serving pure sensory overload on a paper plate, parked on a sun-baked stretch of Van Nuys asphalt. It was Lord Anthony Bourdains favorite place. he just never said it was because he didnt want hipsters to flood it so whenever he was asked to do a segment of his favorite burger place he said fine and did In and Out. The first time you stand outside this shack, your coddled, over-sanitized sensibilities might panic. It looks stripped-down, raw, and unbothered by modern trends. Good. We've been conditioned by corporate fast-food labs to accept heavily preserved, unseasoned mediocrity. If your digestive tract objects after eating here, it's not an ailment--it's a physical exorcism. It's your body aggressively throwing out years of plastic chain-restaurant food and demanding you finally man up. Order the Double Cheeseburger. Retreat to your car like you just pulled off a diamond heist, and sink your teeth into it.Instantly, the world stops spinning. This isn't just a meal; it is an intense, deeply seductive, full-body experience. As your eyes close, a cosmic frequency takes over your soul. It's the smooth, velvety warmth of Marvin Gaye and Barry Whitetrading lines with a soulful caress of the harp by Randy Rhoads , while the ACTUAL God aka Ozzy Osbourne preaches the ACTUAL Gospel aka Black Sabbath right into your cerebral cortex. It feels so dangerously good it should probably be age-restricted. Just as you are about to completely lose yourself in pure culinary euphoria, the ghost of James Brown jolts through your spine, slaps you back to consciousness, and tells you to wake up. You open your eyes, realize you completely blacked out and inhaled the burger, each sensual bite after the other, and immediately walk back to the counter to order another one. The Code of the Counter: The legendary Bill may have moved on to the great flat-top in the sky, but his uncompromising, badass legacy lives on through Doug and Hiroko. This shack is a fortress against the overly sensitive and the trendy. If you need an influencer-approved background, app tracking, or a side of truffle fries, head back to In-N-Out. To survive the ritual, you must respect the temple: The Strategic Windows: Show up before 12:00 PM or after 2:00 PM. Good art takes time, and they are massaging each patty into absolute perfection. The No-BS Policy: The corporate lie of "the customer is always right" dies at the sidewalk. The law of the land is beautiful in its simplicity: Don't be a jerk, and you will receive a masterpiece.The Pure Minimalism: No fries. Don't ask. They don't exist. You don't need them. The burger is the alpha, the omega, and the only thing that matters.

I've been going to Bill's Burgers for many, many years, and it honestly pains me to leave a…read moreone-star review because I've always loved the burgers. Unfortunately, the recent price increase has changed that for me. The burgers are now close to $9 each, and while I've always been willing to pay a little more for a good burger, I just don't feel they're worth the new price. Under the previous pricing, Bill's was a place I could happily return to again and again. At the new prices, it feels like the value is simply no longer there. Since Bill passed, Doug has taken over running the business, and it seems like the prices have increased substantially. I understand that costs go up and businesses have to make money, but this feels like a significant jump, and unfortunately it comes across as more of a money grab than a reasonable price adjustment. I'm sure some longtime customers will continue to go, but for me, this is where I draw the line. I genuinely like the burgers, but liking the food only goes so far when the price no longer makes sense. After all these years, I won't be going back. That's disappointing, because Bill's Burgers used to be one of those local places I was happy to support.
