    cheeseburger and classic burger
    Kathleen W.

    This place looked wuite appealing from reviews so we came through post run We got a cheeseburger and classic burger along with a side of fries. Food was fresh, crispy and delicious. It was very satisfying and the married couple clearly have a lot of regulars coming through as so many people got take out from here. The burgers are solid and a nice size ~ I love that they're bigger than usual and not teeny tiny. Murals are also adorable with a picture of the mom and pop and fast food itemsnin a car~

    Classic Burger & Onion Rings
    Matthew C.

    [IN A NUTSHELL] mom & pop shop burger spot, classic burgers [VERDICT] - APPROVED [RUN-DOWN] A great spot if you are looking for some good classic burgers that are authentic and not cheap fast food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This was recommended to me by a co worker and a cute little shop with a classic diner vibes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [SCORE & ORDER] OVERALL: 3.25/5 Classic Burger $ (3.5/5) -Cheese Burger with Pastrami -A classic cheese burger with a twist of sliced/bits of pastrami. I decided to get this since it was the name of the restaurant. The burger came with lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles (I did not get), ketchup, and mustard (I did not get) and pastrami. The pastrami was interesting and I don't think I am a pastrami guy. No matter though because the burger was just as delicious. It was super juicy and flavorful. For a mom and pop shop, it tasted like a classic burger place. The burger was also super hefty and was full just from the burger. A nice touch to the burger was that the top of the bun was also toasted which gave a nice crispy taste to the burger itself. Onion Rings $ (3/5) -The classic onion rings... Nothing to special about the onions rings but they were nonetheless delicious. Super crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. [SERVICE & ATMOSPHERE] (not reflected upon review score): We came on a weekday lunch time and the sit down was not as busy but there were people ordering to go. There is also a soda machine if you get that option. The staff was super nice and I believe she is the owner of the restaurant.

    I've heard about this place for years since moving into town and never got the chance to try it until today. It is truly a town's jewel. The classic cheeseburger is a must. The fries were not greasy; onion rings were simple and yet tasty. The classic cheeseburger was simply delicious. Freshly made by the friendly owners. This will be our new go to burger place!

    Ordered steak sandwich with mayo, lettuce and tomatoes. This is what I got. Where's the lettuce and tomatoes???
    Suzanne C.

    I called in an order for a steak sandwich with mayo, lettuce and tomatoes only and I got an overcooked steak with only mayo and ketchup. I guess to them ketchup is the same as a tomato. You can see the quality of food one gets from the photo. It looks like it was a mistake from another order and they pawned it off on me. If you order from them make sure you check it make sure they made it correctly. Won't be going there any time soon.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Nice lil burger joint. Had very retro/vintage restaurant vibes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food itself was pretty good & the staff were super nice. I enjoyed the burger meat. Wasn't the biggest fan of NY steak sandwich meat was a little too chewy for my liking but solid food. Next time will get the cheeseburger, fry/combo for $13

    Was craving a Philly cheese steak and decided to give Classic Burger a chance. I was pleasantly surprised and thoroughly enjoyed my sandwich! Bread is soft and warm and the meat was tender and flavorful, with the cheese melted perfectly. Note the sandwiches are a bit small and probably won't fill you if you're super hungry though.

    Pastrami burger
    Jeff C.

    I've heard about this place for years having lived in the area for some time. I love the pastrami burger at Utah's Crown Burger so I was looking forward to trying this place! [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's located in a little strip mall on Hesperian, definitely a hole in the wall kind of place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Old school menu board, older style tables/benches, it has that 1980's mom and pop kind of vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They are a bit understaffed when it gets busy but the food is cooked to order and they bring it out to you on an old school orange tray. I got the pastrami burger and fries. Portions were good sized and the pastrami burger was pretty good. Decent place to get a greasy burger from a local spot.

    Damn it's my fault for sleeping on this place for too long. I would pass by it almost every day going to work in 2018/19, just never been. There's hella parking and easy to get to. When you see the sign and that thing is faded you know the food is about to smackerino. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is clean and hella nostalgic.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The burger is good, it's just a classic burger with no frills. The service is good too, they bring it out for you and pretty quick.

    Grew up in San Lorenzo. been with Classic Burger my whole life. You want a good local burger joint this is it. Seen this place evolve they deserve every dollar we give them. You can tell when Food is made with the heart. Start with the Og Classic. take your time this is a tasty burger. Love love love this place. Ten million start.

    My husband and I stopped by Classic Burger in San Lorenzo on a Saturday at 1:15 PM. [[HIGHLIGHT]]When we walked in, there were only three other people, so we weren't sure if it was going to be good since it wasn't packed. But soon after we placed our order and sat down, the place quickly filled up -- a good sign![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]From the moment we walked in, I was pleased to notice there was NO overpowering cleaner smell--my pet peeve--and the place was clean, cool, and welcoming.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff was friendly and attentive, which made our experience even better. I really appreciated that we could see the food being cooked -- it's always reassuring to see freshness and cleanliness in the kitchen. We split a double cheeseburger and fries, and the food was delivered by a staff member piping hot, which was perfect. The burger was fantastic! I could taste the char of the grill, and the meat was nice and thick and meaty. The lettuce, tomato, and grilled onions added the perfect touch of flavor. The fries were hot and fresh, and the bun was just right -- soft, not too thick or bready, with sesame seeds that I love. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Everything felt cozy and inviting -- a great spot to hang out and enjoy great-tasting, hot, fresh food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We'll definitely be back. Thanks for a fantastic quick meal!

    Wowzers! This place was amazing! While Yelping looking for a good place to eat I came across this gem of a restaurant and so happy I did! I saw all the reviews and nothing but positives so I had to try it. Pulled up and got to the counter. The lady at the counter was helpful, nice, and just wanted me to feel welcome! I asked what would be the best burger since it was my first time. She said the classic burger is what they've known for so I had to try! Wow! This burger was bursting with flavor, had that slightly toasted bun, lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, must and mayo, bacon patty and pastrami and Swiss cheese! Yummmm!! I also ordered the fries that were cooked perfectly not oily and just right! This burger I can't stop talking about because it tasted homemade and with that flavor that can only come from a grill that's been used for years and has that old school taste to it! The burger was juicy and just done right! I highly recommend you stop here and have the burger yourself! With the sesame buns I like, this burger is a home run! If in the area, live close by, driving by or staying close by, you gotta try this place! You will not be disappointed!! I might have to drive from the Sacramento area again to come have this burger more often!

    Touching food with bare unwashed hands
    Trenise L.

    I was going to order, but I witnessed this man using his bare unwashed hand grabbing onion rings and putting them into the fryer. Then he proceeds to ring someone up and go back to using his unwashed hands to handle food! He needs to learn how to properly handle food!

    Do they have meal deals?

    No, you have to buy everything separate

    Do they have veggie burgers?

    They do not have a veggie burger....but, I've ordered the grilled cheese and added tomatoes and onions to it and it was goooood...

    What's better Classic Burger or Bacon Cheeseburger?

    Classic Burger by a long way.

    Do they take 100s?

    why, im sure they can but why cant you break one, they probably would prefer smaller bills do to exchanging change back to customers

    Is this place still open? We couldn't find it.

    I believe so. It's across from Lucky's on Hesperian in a strip mall...

Me and a friend made our way here to find the drive through was extremely long. Then, we decided to park at the Walmart parking lot and proceed to walk. There was no line in the restaurant but people scattered around waiting for their food. We literally waited 30 minutes for our food. Considering the cost of food, long wait is expected. Not sure if it's the busy season or the way they make their food, the fries were nasty. They were dry and hard, not just one piece but the whole tray. Salt packets were provided. Burger... ugh. I had better In-N-Out Burgers in Texas than this these in California. For God Sakes... In-N-Out Burger is originally from California. But the quality is in below my expectations.

FIVE starts for this Jack in the Box!!! This store consistently (consistently is the key) gets me though the drive through faster AND accurately as much as any Jack in the Box I've ever been to. Isn't that the key for success? I think so!

    READ: shady bait and switch pricing on orders…read more I generally like this location and staff service and I also generally appreciate their recent remodel and upgrade to the exterior building. It looks really nice at night lit up. BUT.. what I don't appreciate is ordering and being asked by the staff (who I'm told are only following their bosses or managers orders) if I want a "regular sized" meal when in reality, they're asking you to upgrade to the larger size. When they say "regular", that doesn't mean the combo price you see on the menu. What is reflected in the menu size is actually a "small". On the menu my combo was $12.19 on the menu but after I stated "regular" on my order it suddenly changed to $12.99 on the screen, which is easy to miss if you're not paying attention. My review is 1.5 stars which I find to be a bad/sleezy bait and switch tactic which causes an almost $1 increase in price without you even knowing it. This is a shady business practice and very disingenuous for the business to do. Also I never received a receipt from this location which is probably how they get away with this. You've all been warned.

This is not something that I'm writing out of anger, but to let people know what they may experience at this particular Wendy's store number#3763. First, let's start with Customer Service. Our order was made incorrectly. By the time we got home we realized it. We ordered egg cheese sausage biscuit, but that's not what we got. We ended up getting just a sausage biscuit. I called the number on the receipt and let them know that they had made a mistake and that I was heading back to correct it, and I would like my food remade. Upon arriving one of the young ladies there told my wife that the fries were eaten, and she was only given the sandwiches. Additionally, my wife understood what they were saying, and they called her a very bad word in Spanish that I can't list her due to yelp's policies. After 10 minutes of waiting while they were helping all of the drive-through people, my wife finally got the correct meal, but then when we got it home, you could see that it was not made correctly, but was overcooked and falling apart, almost as if they were just giving us what we wanted appease us, but didn't care how it was made. Unfortunately, I have to take this a step further and call Wendy's corporate number to let them know that the entire staff treated us unprofessionally. A note to Wendy's management if you're going to hire people, please let them know that the customer is always right and not make the customer feel penalized for their staffs mistakes.

Not a lot of taco spots are open late at 10p but I saw that PNT was open. My family and I pulled into the driveway and were confused because it looked and sounded like a bar. There were a few people standing outside and I asked if this was a bar or restaurant and the gentleman said it's a restaurant. We walk in and got some stares because it was late and we had kids. Didn't matter to us. Everything on the menu sounded delish and they had al day breakfast items. We ended up going with the following: 1. Chicken sandwich- 10/10 my teen loved this. It was a crispy thinly sliced chicken breast with all the fixings, and pressed to perfection. 2. Chicken Caesar salad - 10/10 the lettuce was Romain, tossed in Caesar dressing and parm, with grilled chicken filet. 3. 4 tacos de asada - 10/10 yummy chopped steak, seasoned and grilled to perfection. I'm not sure if the evening chef cooks better or maybe we were starving, but the food was great! Ambience at the time was pretty loud but I figure it's because people hanging out in the bar area. Definitely will be back.

    ‼Absolutely horrible tasting food that is ridiculously over priced oh my god. NOT WORTH MY $44 !…read more I got these food items: Asada tacos- 1/2 of the taco meat was just big oily chunks of fat, I spat it out immediately. Rest of it was tolerable to chew. Tortilla was dry and oily. Al Pastor tacos- bland meat with a lingering dry pepper aftertaste that makes the meat taste old. Took one bite and was immediately repulsed. Chips and dip (guac and salsa)- chips are oily and hard to chew. Guac was bland, no garlic or cut tomato. Salsa was a viscous sludge in a small tub, had the same pepper taste as the Al Pastor. Horchata drink- too much cinnamon and saw multiple lidded to go cups of this already made in the fridge behind the register, no expiration dates on them. ALSO PLEASE UPDATE THE PRICES ON YOUR MENU, I was charged $11.95 for the chips and dip but the menu says "house chips and guac $9.50" ... how is salsa $2.45? Only positive thing I would mention is that the free tiny salsa, slice of lime, sliced radish, and pickled jalapeño and carrot was nice of them. Wish the pickled veggies didn't drip vinegar all over the bag (it was wrapped in tin foil). Never been here before and never coming back again.
