I love the dam-burger (an extra * for an historic and local joint) competing against all the box giants. The fry sauce is the best and the burgers are unique, thin--- (so think double or triple) but very tasty. The fries are pretty standard, kids loved the shakes. Wonderful people never had a bad experience or a bad meal. read more

The best in town or anywhere else for that matter. Employees are happy seem to enjoy what they are doing and the burger is fantastic. Been to all the other new and older burger joints and this is by far the best. Too bad I live out in the county and only get by there once a week or so. They have been around for a several decades and I hope they remain for many more. read more

I love Damburger! It was the very first food joint I went to when I first moved to the Northstate and I still make a routine pilgrimage to the place. When I first saw it, it reminded me of a dive like from the Food Network show Diners, Drive-ines and Dives. They are the best burger place in Shasta County that I've tasted so far and it's much better to me than In N Out and I love that fast food joint too. Damburger's burgers are fresh, tasty and the fries are the best in town and I've tried a lot here. Much to the detriment of my waistline. Plus, you get great service from a nice bunch of gals and I always enjoy myself here. Check it out! read more

Wife and I stopped in for lunch today. I had the cheeseburger with all the toppings. I really thought it was very tasty. Much better than burger king etc! Topped it off with a cold Pepsi and pleasant relaxing atmosphere. Indoor and outdoor seating. Kind and pleasant people. I will go back. Down to earth, laid back style. My kind of place! read more

I love dam burger! Small, local and consistent quality food. Shakes, burgers, fries, it's all good! Staff is always super friendly and remembers my order every time! read more

Kind of disappointing. Ordered the special, tasted like a McD's cheap ass burger. I was going to leave it at that but Yelp wants more... Nice location. Friendly service. Left a good tip because it was my fault for not reading the menu better. Would try again. read more

An old time favorite for sure. Never gets old and the staff are awesome! Shakes are yummy and proportions are great!

Not friendly staff. Slow service. Only allowed one drink refill. Worst hamburger we have had in forever. Buns were a joke. Fries were soggy. Great back story but food was almost unbeatable. read more

This place offers the best burger and fries in Redding. As a self-appointed regular, I visit Dam-Burger at least once a week. The best burger is the Helen. This is the same amount of beef as a Double Dam Cheeseburger, but it is cooked to order. I recommend Medium for a juicy burger. There fries are the BEST! I mean the BEST! Name your favorite establishments fries, and I will tell you they are good, but not as good as Damburger! Food is always hot and never sits under a heat lamp! Finally, now they offer lunch deals from like 11-2 which brings the price down to as cheap as your run-of-the-mill fast food establishment. That's right GREAT LOCAL food for run-of-the-mill fast food prices! read more

The service was quick and the place looked clean. No complaints about the actual food (the patty WAS paper-thin). The price was ENTIRELY LAUGHABLE!!! Three tiny snack-burgers for $15!? Won't return. I can make the same thing at home for WAY under $5 (for all three). read more

This tiny hamburger joint hit the spot. I was welcomed as I walked in, the service was quick. I ordered my food it came within in minutes. The only thing I didn't like was everything was priced separate. Not even a meal deal, except at lunch. My overall experience was great. Burger and fries compared to Steak 'n Shake which is great, read more

The best dam burger I've had in a long long time! I ordered the double cheeseburger with the works, hubby ordered a triple cheeseburger with the works minus onions, kids ordered hot dogs and a cheeseburger. The hot dogs were split and grilled and then placed on a hamburger bun. The fries were crispy and thin, similar to McDonalds fries, tasted great especially with the fry sauce. The burgers were hand pressed thin and crispy on edges, too die for! So glad we stopped here while on our vacation. Place was very clean and customer service was great! read more

Love the outdoor patio area and the food is great. Fries were perfectly crispy!

If you like being outdoors and downtown - you may consider this joint. I had the classic cheeseburger and fries - which cost more than the local Inn & Out - and left a bit hungry. The burger reminded me of a greasy piece of bacon - for the thickness and amount of grease. If you're used to being well oiled - this is your place. No doubt the taste is there, but the quantity, size and quality was .... er .... worst than any other fast food place I've had. A redeeming factor was their milkshake which I ordered to complete my skimpy meal. read more

"Same as it ever was" I'm a big fan of your basic vintage diner-style hambuger joint. This place is the real deal, still doing it like they did 70+ years ago. It still has a counter with stools where you can sit and chat with the ladies that are making your food. They still have an antique un-powered cash register. The shakes are good, the fry sauce is made on-site, and the burgers are good too. Note: They do make their burgers with an extra-thin patty, which has been the tradition there forever. If that's not your thing, get the Helen burger instead, it's twice as thick (which makes it about as thick as a regular patty elsewhere)- that's what I always order and it's perfect. There aren't many places like this left. Don't miss it. read more

Order the fries crispy and you won't be disappointed. crispy till the last one. Had single hamburger and it was good. Had chocolate-banana shake, tasty too. read more

Love this place, a Redding icon and staple. If you have not tried this hamburger joint give it a shot. While the burgers are extremely thin cut in such a way that the beef flavored explodes that provides for one of the best burgers in town. This place may not be for you, but if you've not tried it is definitely worth your time. Manga! read more

WHERE'S THE BEEF?? I ordered a triple Dam burger and couldn't hardly find the beef. The fries weren't crispy but the shakes were GREAT! Disappointing burgers, no wonder they were so cheap. read more

I have lived in the Redding area all of my life and have always heard great things about DamBurger so I decided to try it out. I was very disappointed. These are the reasons why. 1. The hamburgers are way over priced for the amount of meat that you get. My friend and I each ordered triple burgers, and when we got our food I honestly thought the waitress brought us the wrong order because it really looked like there was only 1 hamburger patty. I even mentioned it to my friend and he pointed out there was actually 3. They say they are 1/3 lb patties but there is no way. We spent $25 for 2 burgers and fries and this was without any drinks. 2. The service was not good. We both ordered waters to drink and we had to yell for the waitress so we could get a refill. She checked on the couple sitting outside twice but never once came back to our table. We were the only ones inside and there was 4 or 5 employees there. And they still had the nerve to ask me how much of a tip I wanted to leave when I paid for our meals. ........ On the positive side I thought the burger was flavorful but I would not pay that much money again for for the little amount of food that we got. read more

I go to Damburger when I'm in Redding and I've never been disappointed. The meat is cooked thin and has real flavor. This is not a fat butger, just delicious. The service is aleays fast and polite and this all goes with the best fries since I was a teen. And that was long ago. Try the chai shake, thick and perfectly made, it reminds me of when shakes used to taste like something not just sweet gunk. My favorite is the hot damburger. Just the right amount of heat and great with "the works". You wont be sorry you went. read more

I am a self-proclaimed DamBurger addict. My grandparents who have lived in Redding their entire lives, as well as many, many old people LOVE Damburger and eat it on a weekly basis. Actually there are many people who come in daily. No joke, I've been around long enough to talk to them. The shakes are to die for. Many people have customs that they like and the crew is happy to oblige. Regulars have their orders permanently memorized, and most of the people that work there are some of the nicest you'll ever meet. The owners are sweethearts as well. read more

Always hits the spot... Good prices friendly people never had a bad meal. I like the location it central to everything.

The burger patties were so thin the shake wasn't even real ice cream and the restaurant was filthy. The bathroom was disgusting and there was no place for my wife to hang her purse, she had to put her purse on the back of the toilet. Way over priced, the place was a true dive, we are never going back. read more

It is tasty but small. I ordered Double Damburger and small fries. When they brought it, I was disappointed. A small basket with a micro burger and some fries. I had to order another Double Damburger with bacon and a Double Dam Dog. I didn't like Dam Dog. Burger was still delicious, but bacon was very thin. If you are around and if it is lunch time. You can go. I paid 22 US and no soda in it. read more

This joint has incredible, fresh tasting, natural food! The french fries actually are potatoe (not chemical) and the burgers are made with real food! I am amazed! Damburgers only compitetion in Redding is IN AND OUT! read more

Dam-Burger was a great experience. Me and the family sat on the patio with our dog and the first thing the waitress did was bring out a water bowl and then asked us what we wanted to dring. I love a dog friendly restaurant. The food was good and the service was great. They make a simple smash-style burger. A classic. I would go again in a heartbeat when in Redding. read more

There's a reason this place has been around for 75 years, I hope they'll be around for another 75. The fries and fry sauce are amazing. Check out a new addition to their menu, the "hot dam" which has jalapenos and a special chipotle sauce, it's not super spicy, but delicious and full of flavor! The meat is fresh and tasty and you can expect consistency in what you order unlike some places where you never know if they're going to get your order right. read more

I love this place! You can't find this style of burger anywhere else. The beef is high quality and I like the thin patties because I personally don't like to fill up on the red meat. Classic fries with home made fry sauce and real people that serve you and treat you like a normal person. Nothing fake about this place at all. Not another Joe Wong franchise! read more

i read about this place on a favorite site - Roadfood.com - and as I was in Redding, I went in a got a single burger. It was delicious! No frills, great staff, a crisp patty with the works! Go for it! read more

I think my husband will kill me for saying this, but I don't love Damburger. He loves coming here because he's been coming here all his life, but as a non-native of Redding, all I can say is.. EH. The patties are super thin and crispy. After complaining long enough, he told me to order the Helen burger. It's 1/3lb burger and way better than the thin pattied burgers. read more

Damburger gets fresh meat every morning and smashes the pattys out, so that the customers can enjoy the famous 72 year old thin patty, they are cooked well done, and are absolutely delicious. They also have the Helen burger if you dont like thin well done pattys, which is two pattys put together to make one and cooked to your liking. They are pretty basic, but so good. The friendly staff, and the company of the "old timers" makes a very fun atmosphere please try read more

Good burgers! Very simple menu, a couple different burger options, hot dogs and a veggie burger. I went with the classic burger meal with fries and fry sauce. Nothing amazing but it was a good burger. I would have to say flavor wise I think In & Out has them beat but I defiantly give them another try. read more

In my opinion, a great burger is one that is flat pressed and thin. This allows spices and other ingredients to be highlighted in a patty. Damburger is one of the few places that does this. Support your local business cause this one is great! read more

Love this place. On of my favorites. Get a double damn thing, maybe even add bacon. I've heard people complain about how they're party's are thin, but I don't care because they taste amazing. read more

Beware: The don't have tomatoes or cheddar cheese. They're burgers resemble 3 pieces of paper stacked on top of each other. If you want food you can get at Six Flags this is the place for you! They're fries are horrible but they have good shakes and service. Anyways... My Damburger sucked!! read more

The Damburger is a staple of Redding. It may not be the best darn (you know what I mean, right?) burger you've ever had, but they do hit the spot. The burgers are unlike others in that the patties are really thin but filling nonetheless. The only time I ever go is when my Dad is craving one and he needs a burger devouring sidekick. It is a little expensive, but its always nice to support the local economy. read more

I enjoyed my Helen burger and fries, but not enough for it to pass the In-n-Out test.

pretty dam good burger... order the Helen w double patties... #superburger enough said

I've only eaten there a few times with my mother. Two of the three times we were seated after people who walked in after us... The waitresses are often rude and don't care about anyone younger than 60. I've always ordered a regular hamburger, fries and a drink. When it comes out the meat is very thin (almost laughably so) and it's covered with whatever vegetables you ask for. Their prices are insane for the quality of the food (no matter how "good" it tastes) and it's usually messy. I honestly don't know why it's so popular. read more

It's awright. Nothing I can't make @ home. Not much menu choices. Maybe I'll b back 4 some ice cream if I'm in the mood & in the neighborhood. read more
