    Let's start off by saying I was really looking forward to having the mushroom burger, but for whatever reason they were out of mushrooms, so I settled for the avocado burger. The homemade bun was definitely the star of the show! It super soft not dry at all and the patties was cooked perfectly. They certainly didn't skimp on the avocado either! Definitely going to go back and try the mushroom burger, hopefully they will have mushrooms

    We had jalapeño poppers, asada fries, avocado burger, and a western burger; everything was so incredibly fresh! He is literally a one man show take that into consideration if you wait a few minutes for your food. The homemade bun was the star of the show. The owner was super helpful and takes a lot of pride in his food, go support him!

    Burger was good they give small portions for the price and the ranch was very watered down, the seating area is very little.

    Famous Burger in Plainview

    My husband has been wanting to try this place since he saw them on TikTok. Today was the day. He was interested in the hand ground beef and the homemade fresh buns. Guys...... this place did not disappoint. When you enter, the chef lets you know how to order. Basically, check the menu, order next door at the grocery store to pay and the cashier gives you a slip of paper with your order. You take the slip of paper back to the burger area and hand it to the chef. We ordered 2 pastrami burgers, 2 western burgers, 4 small fries and the chicken nugget meal. The price mark is decent-$9.99 burgers. It was $68 and some change. They have a few different burgers and sides. I appreciate the fact that the menu isn't overwhelming but enough options for people to choose their liking. The place is small but there are a few seats inside and out. There's an attached grocery store so if you need to grab something for the house or drinks this place has the convenience of well.....a convenience store. I had the western burger and fries. The western burger has a hefty meaty patty, thick onion rings, cheese, bacon, bbq sauce, tomato and lettuce. The bread is so delicious! The first bite just melted in my mouth. All the contents in the burger meshed well. My husband had the pastrami burger. He actually said it was better than the popular joint in Porterville and the other chain burger in town. It was just as juicy and hefty as the western burger. My husband usually chasing his burgers with a regular burger but he said he didn't need one. I didn't know that was a thing dudes did but ok? The fries were good. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. I'd totally go back again

    This is the second time this place has scammed me out of money. I go in, place my order, pay with a…read morecard, don't leave a tip, go home and then 1 to 3 days later, I get a message from my bank showing they added an extra transaction to my sale. It's been 1 year and 3 months since I last ate here. I thought I'd give them a second chance but nope, same scam. Now I have to dig through my trash to find the receipt so I can go pay them a visit. Last time this happened, I think it was March 2024. The manager or owner whoever it was told me there's a password on the card terminal that only he can access to re-process sales and that he "accidentally hit a button" that caused it. I call BS. My gut says: never come back here. Once I find the receipt, I'll post a photo showing no tip. If the owner tries to show a receipt with a tip added, then they forged it and I'll demand to see the CCTV footage of me signing that receipt. How does this keep happening to me? And how does no one else ever check their bank notifications? Found the receipt here's the photo. Update: 6/24/2025, 1:00 PM I went to speak with the manager or owner. The lady at the register said they haven't seen the owner in weeks. She told me I could take cash on the spot or wait for him. I was like, "Weeks? Yeah, no. I'm not waiting weeks for my $2.18 back." So I took the cash. I didn't need to play the long game with the bank which can take months or sue for $2 (which, ironically, could later cost the owner hundreds of thousands in court and recovery fees... plus the $2). And yes, I'm that petty. If you know your card terminal is doing this, and you didn't even argue when I mentioned being overcharged then why haven't you changed your terminal or processor in the 1 year and 3 months since it last happened? It's as if you're the one doing it. Trying to quietly score an extra couple bucks per customer. Some might say, "It's just $2, let it go." But if they're doing this to every customer, all day, every day? That adds up. It's like those movies where a bank teller notices one cent going to waste, writes some code to collect the spare change, and ends up making millions. her hands were visibly shaking when handing me the $2 back. she knew. didnt even argue nor deny it. lost my business forever can't keep allowing this to happen, "Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me." yelp wont let me post the receipt but you can see my review on google. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/geougc-cs/AB3l90D63s_eonILt4wyWUPs59rT2WsdgXs8Bpv9KHj9yBplyY44I5YT2ZzPGAEfgx1Qo108qOO0wKlBozVt2_g4SgXh1CcDOyQ_U7bYIwB_O1mXmG0fZOgVLB811yRzGrnYX5CRwO3CxgTdTYXv=s3360-w3360-h1798-rw

Our food came out in a timely manner and it looked really good. It looked like they cared what and how they made their food. I ordered their version on the BLT with avocado that had a pesto mayo and my husband ordered their special of the day, the Jalapeño smash burger. They were both good but my BLT was just okay. The bun was nice and soft but had very little of the mayo besto and for the size of the bun so I had to ask for more. They filled the bun with a good amount of avocado, lettuce, tomato, and red onions, there was only two thin pieces of bacon in my sandwich so my husband gave me two pieces from his burger to fill the bread to bacon ratio. The sandwich could have been better in my opinion if a shredded ice burger lettuce would have been used for the crunch factor since the bread was so soft and by using a thick cut of bacon for that sandwich. I don't know about my husband but I left there very unsatisfied and I was ready to by me some chicken stripe at the corner gas station.

    On the way home we hit this place for lunch. Good food and service even when they were slammed…read more We walked in, all 12 of us and politely waited in line as two employees attempted to take and prep all our orders. It was a younger looking girl at the register who didn't seem alarmed by the immediate rush of people who added to the already semi-long line. A couple times she shouted that she was "sorry for the wait" and that there was "only two of them". I immediately thought "oh no". Our group arrived before breakfast cutoff time but since we were in line so long it was well past the cutoff by the time we could order breakfast. Some were bummed but found alternatives. I went with a bacon burger and onion rings. Both were very good with the onion rings were excellent. The shakes looked good but I wasn't adventurous enough to try some before our long drive home. The place was clean, even the bathroom. I was very impressed with the work ethic of the two employees. Kudos to the owner or hiring manager.

We love spending the day fishing and chilling. Our normal fishing spot finally opened up near lunchtime. We had been waiting since 5 am and now that we had gotten it, all of us did not want to give up our spot so we opted to pick something up and eat it on the river. Usually while in Kernville we hit up another spot, BUT that place literally gave 5 out of the 6 of us explosive diarrhea. We always see how packed Mcnally's outpost is , and one of our party members said the original one was good. We arrived and were greeted immediately. The service is phenomenal , they are so polite and helpful. They even remembered to give me the soda when the food was ready. That is where the positives end. The prices are exorbitant!!! My god. 25$ for a burger, that does not come with fries or a drink. I got a double bird chicken sandwich , my wife got a double smash and a drink and my friends got a bacon cheeseburger. It was 100$! One. Hundred. Dollars. US. Jesus. Christ. Now, for the price, I was really hoping the food would be killer. It was not. My shredded chicken was dry , and smothered in a funky tasting BBQ sauce. My wife is typically not one to complain but even she disliked her burger. My buddy didn't even eat his. There is no way local people are coming to eat here. It must be all the tourists tubing and fishing or camping for the weekend hoping for a good burger and leaving sad, with a much lighter wallet. Fries were solid! Everyone in the group did enjoy those. An additional positive note, this kernville restaurant didn't give the group the hershey squirts so that is also a plus.
