    Now $11.50 for one burrito, that's $23 for 2. When they used to be $8.20 each(look at my photos), then went to $9 which wasn't terrible. But now $11.50. Sooner or later they are gonna price themselves out of customers.

    Just what it advertises! I love this little neighborhood diner. It's always clean, well-staffed and the service is fast. I like that they bring the food to your table. I often order the California Chicken sandwich. It's a generous portion, big enough to split. The bread bowl clam chowder is also great (only available Fridays). No frills, just a clean and consistent restaurant with good food. I'd say it's fantastic.

    This place never disappoints and it's truly the most affordable place to go now! The menu shows $7.99 for a hamburger. 75c to add cheese. We ordered 2 cheeseburgers and 2 fries and they mentioned having a 2 for 1 deal. It ended up being only $15.83! Even cheaper than a plain hamburger on its own. What a deal! They also give you ranch for free! :D

    This is My Family' s Favor restaurant for hamburger, pastrami sandwich and best Zucchini fries here over 10 years until now We still stop by here anytime by the way went somewhere pass by here Service good & great food as the price

    The size is MUCH smaller now and the QUALITY is bad!!! ... Hardly any meat.  Just cheese & potatoes!! The price is still $10

    So sad!!! I was craving a breakfast burrito, but knowing I can't eat the whole thing, I asked for it to be cut and wrapped into two. I've bought this before (see previous review) and it WAS delicious!! HOWEVER... today's was less than adequate. (See photo) I heard the lady ahead of me also order breakfast burrito, but she was specifically asking for NO POTATOES!! ...which I thought was kind of extreme, but now, I'm really wondering what she actually got in her burrito because mine was almost ALL cheese & potatoes!!! In addition, the burrito is now very TINY. I probably could have eaten the entire thing now, but I started feeling full and bloated from all the carbs and cheese! If I were to guess, there MAY have been ONE chopped up link sausage in the half I ate, MAX. IDK about the other half that I tossed. I'm going to think twice before coming back and note my PREVIOUS review was FIVE stars and I'm a proud 10-year elite Yelper.

    TL;DR - I'm not sure why the reviews are so negative, this is one of my go-to spots. The interior is a little sad, but the food makes up for it. The staff is always very kind, patient, and helpful. My favorite food from here: fantastic burger breakfast burrito chicken sandwich sweet potato fries chicken tenders I would definitely recommend if you're looking for some fairly cheap fast food that's not too unhealthy!!

The order process was pretty simple -- I responded to their Instagram story and they reached out with follow-up questions, menu options, and pickup details. The pickup was from a home residence in the city of Garden Grove (off of Brookhurst Street and Hazard Avenue), nearby Pho 79 if you're familiar with the area. The exact address is provided with your order! The owner, Aamir, was very friendly and professional when I picked up my food and the burgers were packaged very neatly in separate boxes. I ordered two smash burgers that included three patties each, which cost $15 per burger. They included caramelized onions and jalapenos, which were a delightful surprise. The patties were a little salty, but upon reading the other reviews, I see that the owner pre-marinates the patty meat. The prices were also steep for just the burger, and I thought my order would come with fries on the side, but that doesn't take away from the quality of the food. All in all, I would return for future orders and would love to see them open a brick-and-mortar restaurant someday, ideally in Garden Grove still. 10/10 rating and five stars all around for a seamless ordering experience, delicious food, and timeless customer service.

The owner is super responsive, and you can tell he wants to provide the best service possible. During this special pop-up event, they were serving two's a tango that features their warm brioche bun along with two halal patties smashed with cheese and carmelized onions on top. The burger itself was massive, with one being more than enough to feed a hungry person. After talking to the owner, he mentioned he pre-marinates his meat, so that could be the reason why the taste was a little salty for us. The sauce is awesome and complimentary, so when ordering, if you don't plan on eating the burger right away, to prevent sogginess, ask for extra on the side. I know some people prefer the meatiness, but I am a sauce type of girl. Overall, the flavors of the burger meshed well! Thank you for adding another place for halal goodness. I'm hoping you guys do well and keep quality up.

The staffs are very nice and welcoming. Service was efficient and it didn't take me too long (about 10-15 min) before I got my two burgers and a Mexican coke ($4.99) for takeout. I got the Firefly Burger ($11.99) and the Wallstreet ($11.99.) I was amazed by how massive the burgers are and I had some difficulties trying to hold it with both hands! Apparently they use a needle to inject the sauce directly into the burger so it's juicier. The ingredients are fresh and quality, especially the patty are fresh and well seasoned. I also appreciate the lingering aroma of mushrooms, which enhances the Wallstreet very well. Overall, Firefly Burgers checks a lot of boxes: generous portions but solid flavors, reasonable prices, quick and friendly service, and a quiet, laid-back atmosphere. Just don't let the parking scare you eh.

Apollo Burger is located off Chapman in the intersection of Garden Grove, Orange, and Anaheim (technically Garden Grove though). There's plenty of parking, but it can get crowded when the lunch or dinner rush hits. The interior has a bunch of seating, and the restaurant is very bright and clean. The staff were all super friendly, and everything was made fresh and quickly. I got a bacon cheeseburger and a cheeseburger (sub mayo, add pickles and onions), and both were exactly what you'd look for in an old school, diner-type burger. The ingredients were fresh and the flavors were all great. I also got a chocolate shake which I would venture to say was one of the best chocolate shakes I've had in recent memory. I tried the grilled chicken sandwich as well, but unfortunately that was quite dry as they used pieces of chicken vs a full cutlet, so I would recommend avoiding that. This is a great burger joint in OC, and I absolutely plan to come back. If you're in the mood for a diner burger, this place is absolutely the spot to visit.

When the food came out, I was genuinely shocked at how massive the portions were. I can put away some food, but the fish basket alone was incredibly filling.

The fish was crispy on the outside, flaky and tender on the inside, and perfectly cooked. The breading had that satisfying crunch, and the tartar sauce complemented it so well.
