I saw they were named 2nd fast food / food truck by the city of Orange. They don't have a physical location. I ordered the La hot mess and the la basic made ""la she thicc", which means 4 patties and 4 cheeses. They didn't have everything that is on their instagram, the two I bought were the 2 burgers they had. They were quick to make my burgers. By themselves, they are good burgers. You don't feel the need to add anything.
Super good burger! Nice & simple yet full of flavor. One of the best smash burgers out there. Tots also are fire. It's a little on the pricier side ($20 for burger & tots) but I'd say it's worth it. The fact that it's a pop-up makes it feel elusive & hard to track down, but when you're able to have it, it's super good. Wonder if a permanent location is ever in the cards for these burgers bc I feel like I would go more often.
I've had El Brewjo burgers at various pop-ups and breweries around the OC and it's yet to disappoint. I usually get La Hot Mess since I like a burger with kick. I was skeptical about how thin the patties were at first but then realized their the perfect smash when doubled up, nice and crispy on the edges but still juicy af. So if you like a smash style burger these are on point.
I really wanted to like this place since I've seen alot of hype behind it but my burger experience here was not the best. The good: Very crispy burger patties which gave good texture. The bad: The burger buns were cold and dry. Not sure if this is the style/choice but putting the buns on the grill to heat up just a little with some butter would've helped alot. From pictures on other yelp posts, it looks like the buns were grilled; maybe they forgot to throw the buns on the grill? Who knows.. The burger patties were very, very salty to the point where I could still taste salt on my tongue 30 minutes after eating it (whoever was cooking tonight must've had a heavy hand with the seasoning). Parking here is pretty hard to find since its connected to Green Cheek Brewery and other surrounding businesses (had to circle around several times). Not sure if this was just an off time or experience but I was fairly disappointed for my first time unfortunately.
Wow... is this what a "smash burger" is supposed to taste like? I'm a fan! I've only had "smash burger" one other time and wasn't a fan. I didn't get the hype because it tasted so average and it made me want a regular burger more. El Brewjo came highly recommended by a friend and I was going to pass on them because of my prior experience with smash burger, but I'm glad I didn't. I'm not sure what a smash burger is really supposed to be, but the ones from El Brewjo is so darn good! The meat patty is what makes a smash burger a smash burger. They are thin and juicy with crispy edges. I think what really took it over the top is the type of meat blend they use - it tastes like I'm eating a steak! I honestly don't think you can go wrong with any of their smash burgers. There is only three to choose from on their menu and they occasionally have specials. Their burgers range from $14-$16. It's a simple menu, but that's all you need. Cesar is the owner and he was nice and cool. I really like that they keep it in the family (the cook, the prep, the cashier). This is a pop-up place that goes to different beer establishments so you have to find their schedule on Instagram to see where they're at. Also, it seems like they are only open Fridays-Sundays. They also offer their services for private events.
You're not gonna want to miss out on El Brewjo's delicious burgers. Dropped by a brewery post work just for two basic bitches and tater thots. Seriously though, our intention at the brewery was solely for El Brewjo. The basic bitch is not too greasy and it tastes so yummy! Always eager to catch El Brewjo when they're around the area.
I finally tried El Brewjo's award-winning burger pop-up and it did not disappoint. I ordered the Hot Mess smash burger and loaded tots. Both were served hot, fresh, and full of flavor. The burger had a great balance of savory, spicy, and crispy, while the tots were perfectly seasoned and generously loaded. You can tell the team puts real care into every order. I'll definitely be coming back to try more of their signature burger--la basic b.
Loved having El Brewjo pop up for our baby shower! Organized, on time, friendly service, and excellent burgers and tots!
I've had El Brewjo twice and I have to admit this is by far the best smash burgers I've had in Orange County! So flavorful! Great mix of ingredients! Patties are crispy! Tots aren't plain, they are actually seasoned! A must addition to your burger. Although La Hot Mess is spicy, I love it! It's like an addictive spicy kick to it lol By the way, you can ask for grilled onions, I did. And I can't end this review without mentioning how sweet the staff is even in the kaos of how busy they get. Great, great burgers and staff! *so much flavor and crisp in every bite!
Experienced the pop-up venue while at Green Cheek Brewery this past weekend. Husband and I ordered El Biter, La Hot Mess, along with an obligatory side of 'tots. Everything tasted fresh and stupendous, from the crunchy edges of the smashburger to the super soft, yet durable buns. Not as messy as I anticipated, but I also didn't attempt a gooey egg either. I preferred La Hot Mess, it was a nice kick in the mouth, but nothing a crisp brew couldn't soothe. The tater tots were so perfectly crisp and fluffy inside, we could have eaten our weight in those. The accompanying sauce was like a loose thousand island/in n out spread sub chili powder for the relish. I was a fan.
Two words.... AMAZING BURGERS! I was hooked after my first time trying El Brewjo. I constantly crave these burgers, so I try to go to their pop-ups whenever I can. I hired them for our neighborhood block party last year, and they were a hit! I even saw El Brewjo mentioned on KTLA morning news the other day. The smashed beef patties are flavorful, the Brewjo sauce is delicious, and the buns are a perfect compliment. I just tried the loaded tots this week... YUM! Portions are plentiful and the quality is great. You gotta try El Brewjo!!!
We had them cater for our son's one year birthday and it was a hit! Literally everyone couldn't stop talking about how amazing the burgers were. Also, the set up was very nice. The guys were respectful of our beautiful backyard and overall just the best experience. For sure we will be using them again for future parties!
Literally the best friggin smash burger you'll ever have! From the buns, to the meant, the perfectly spiced sauce, to the fresh toppings El Brewjo will have you coming back again and again and again! And if the food wasn't perfect enough the El Brewjo Team are outstanding and so friendly and welcoming. If you haven't tried these guys before on the look out at the next pop up, you won't regret it!

Pop up at different locations each day of the week. They were at Everywhere Brewing on Saturday. Got to try them out! $12 for the Plain Jane: Smashburger with cheese $17 Lasso Burger: Smashburger with cheese, onion rings, and bbq sauce $5 for tater tots I thought the burgers were good but not amazing, after hearing them getting 2nd place in a burger competition I did have a little bit of high expectations, but I thought the burger was just missing flavor and seasoning, buns were a little cold but did have a good softness to it! The burger patty was also left thick and not as smashed. I felt that this burger could be much more elevated with a thousand island sauce. The tater tots were really crispy and had a nice sauce! For $30+ for two burgers it's a little bit on the pricey end and I just felt it didn't hit the mark. But still a pretty decent tasting burger! read more
Came here after seeing all the hype on ig, and sadly did not live up to the hype. We came an hour before closing and parking was incredibly hard to find. After circling the area 3 times, we decided to park in a reserved spot. Since we came an hr before closing they ran out of some food items, including tater tots, which was very disappointing. I ordered the basic bitch and the presentation was impressive. Meat patty was very crispy and flavorful, but after awhile it got a bit too flavorful, and the salt was creeping in. The worst part had to be the burger bun. It was cold and super dry. I wish they warmed the bun on the grill before serving, because it didn't pair well with the meat at all. All in all, I don't think I'd be coming back here. read more

Literally the best burger I have ever had! For anyone who has tried El Brewjo you know this is true! Make sure to catch a pop up! read more
Drove over 30 minutes to get there to have their tasty burgers! I had the El Biter and wasn't disappointed. The flavor is so good that if I could eat another, I would. Their tots are delicious as well. The owner was super nice and friendly. I can't speak more highly of the food and the service! read more
I was so glad to finally catch these guys at Green Beer. The burgers were so neat to eat while just being so delicious and packed with flavor. I loved the jalapeño one I got and I got to try my girlfriend's western bacon style burger and oof, those onion rings were amazing on the burger. So much delicious. I desperately want to have these burgers again. read more
