The western bacon bbq burger with grilled onions is so delicious. The crunch and savory flavors! It's a big filling burger and it's my new favorite! Much more satisfying than shake shack or smash burger. The skinny fries are a great compliment. read more

This place was a terrible rude people and took forever on my food. Then when I got my food I tried a fry and it burnt my mouth and left my mouth with a blood blister the people also don't know what the fuck they are doing they are all dumbasses and the chicken was dry as shit read more

It's so crazy how I make time to review 3 star joints like Fatburger when I literally have like 5-10 fine dining spots to review before 2026. 5-10 spots I have eaten at already. 5-10 spots that include 2 Michelin Star dining places named Komal and Holbox. Let me try to write this review in terms that can relate to the kids. For Real for real. Fatburger & Buffalo's Express has mad aura. Don't mind me. I like In N Out. As an LA transplant from Texas, I even place In N Out over Whataburger. However, tonight, I tasted Fatburger & Buffalo's Express. Holy shit. This spot is tied neck and neck #1 with a place called P. Terry's for best fast food burger I have tasted. To my knowledge, P. Terry's is only available in Austin and Houston. You bitches don't even know. Stop wasting your time on In N Out. Thank you guys. read more

I had not eaten a Fatburger in a while, so today while they were having a promotion, I went out of my way here to order an original Fatburger. It turned out to be one of the best burgers I have ever had at a fast food outlet. It was warm, with all the ingredients that I had specified in my online order. The beef was a little smashed--as I like it. Compliments to the cook! The woman at the counter was also helpful. read more

Staff is always very friendly and usually make food pretty quick when not busy. Lots of seating and close to my house. read more

Food and service are shitty!!!!! The cooks don't know what the fuck they are doing and it all takes forever

When I arrived to pick up my food Sunday around 5:30 pm the cook was a nice foundational black American and so was the cashier. They both were professional and polite. My turkey burger was on point perfect, my skinny fries was also. Yes, I will recommend this location to everyone. Thank you read more

I ate here for the first time and was excited for my lunch. It was disgusting. No flavor at all. And the cookies didn't taste fresh. I spent $50 definitely not worth the price. Go to McDonald's in the same plaza. Way cheaper and way better and the cookies are fresh. read more

There are 3 people who make this more than a fast food place to forget. Devon, Jaylen, and Godfredo go above and beyond everytime I order pick-up or go by for a bite. This place is my in/out. See, I am GF and it's a pain in the ass. They make it easy, every time. No reminder, they ask. They offer kindness in buckets to everyone who walks thru the door. They get the hospitality part of eating out, regardless of the price point. read more

Love their burgers. What I like most about them is that they're open late. A little pricey but worth it.

Ridiculously overpriced and the saltiest burger I've ever had in my life. Thankfully, I didn't have heart failure after. Also, what kind of burger place charges EXTRA for cheese??? read more

When you order online and don't want condiments you will have to order your burger "plain" and it comes with nothing but the meat and bun. There is no option to keep your cheese on the burger. Terrible. 0/5. read more

After learning that Fatburger was going to be selling Impossible nuggets as well as Craig's vegan milkshakes, I knew I had to make a trip to try these out. Upon arriving at the restaurant, we were warmly greeted by the employee. After inquiring about the ingredients in the vegan milkshake (made with cashews,) I ordered a Maui banana milkshake and hubby ordered a lemonade. As for food, we both ordered Impossible burgers and a ten piece of the new Impossible nuggets. The food was delicious and was quickly prepared. The nuggets were crispy and well cooked. Hubby said "it's the perfect nugget that crispy on the outside and hot and tender on the inside." My milkshake was thick and sweet. The Impossible nuggets were so great, I hope they make it a permanent addition to the Fatburger menu. Although the food it pricey, it was definitely worth the hour plus drive to try these new vegan items! read more

Love this restaurant! Food is great and the service is amazing! Will be visiting really soon!

This originally was a Fatburger years if not decades ago, then went away, only to re-emerge in 2021. I like Fatburger. The downside is the new locations, from what I'm told, like this one, does not offer the "FLAME GRILL" option where you get that flavorful cooking method and the grease drips and drops, as opposed to the steel griddle grill style. The one menu item I saw missing that I used to order is the Bacon and Egg sandwich, paired with just a little ketchup, no cheese, it was the prefect 24 hr meal when you wanted something lighter than a hamburger. Added to the menu were hot wings and a few other items I've not seen offered before. The upside of this location is the service. The guy at the counter, a middle-aged Asian man, I speculate might be the manager or even a franchise owner, was so welcoming as you come in and equally as warm and friendly as you left and was very accommodating to special food ingredient and preparation requests. I asked for my burger to be done "Medium Rare" and they accommodated my request, as opposed to the standard answer of most burger places of "We can only cook medium or medium well" This location shares a huge parking lot with other businesses, so it's easy to park here. I personally like Fatburger over In N Out and any fast-food burgers or even peers like The Habit, Smashburger, Five Guys, etc. - - Ice Cube even worked "Fatburger" into the lyrics of one of his hit songs, so you know it's an iconic and legendary spot to eat when in Los Angeles! read more

Really used to love fat burger but have to say the quality and preparation of the food lately has been awful. Over cooked dried up patties with slopped together toppings is about all you get here these days. Ordered a XXL burger, sweat potato fries and a turkey burger (all below average, not fresh and practically inedible). Hope Fatburger can pull it together (been going for 20+ years), up their food prep game, quality checks, otherwise it will be an end of an era. read more

Well... my last (takeout) order was a bit light on the sauce. I ordered a Thousand Island Burger and they put a very small amount of thousand island sauce, coupled with tomatoes, lettuce, meat and cheese on the sandwich. That was it. The bottom bun was BONE DRY. There was no way I was going to eat it like that, so I added my own Mayo and a touch of ketchup. The fat fries, lemonade and banana milkshake I ordered were all really good. 3 stars for now.....because it's kinda hard to mess up a Fatburger. lol They dropped the ball this time, but this is still one of my favorite burger spots to date and I'll be back to update my review. read more

Fatburger & Buffalo's Express - Signage. - Burgers Near Me - Manhattan Beach, California

Ordered delivery and they stapled the receipt to the bag and covered the staple with a sticker (it looked like the sticker was holding the receipt), so the it slid deeply into my finger when opening the bag. So painful. And I had to figure out the angle to slide it back out. The bag wasn't even folded over. Nothing about this would make me guess there was a staple used. Come on guys. This is just dangerous. read more

Fatburger & Buffalo's Express - Large Fatburger (1/2 lb.) - Burgers Near Me - Manhattan Beach, California

They just opened last Monday so it seems like they have some details to work out. Although the burgers are supposed to be grilled to order and buns toasted, everything was cold after my 4 minute drive home. Buns were colder than room temperature, as they were cold to the touch. The patties were pretty charred, but yet not warm and juicy. It tasted better after I reheated in the microwave. Onion rings were hard and seemed to have been sitting under the heat lamp for an extended time although I visited at noon. My fat fries were the only thing that were warm. I had also ordered one of my burgers with cheese for the extra $1 but it was missing. I've had better Fatburgers than this. This location can improve. read more

Big disappointment. Placed an order to go. Sweet potatoes fries were soggy. Ordered some skinny fries and there was nothing in our bag when we got home. Ordered a turkey burger without cheese and they added cheese. Turkey burgers were ok. 7/10. read more

Solid reliable burgers. My family goes there when we really want a good burger. The guys at our location are always upbeat and welcoming. It's great to have a Fatburger at this location. read more

Small burger and wing chain with great service. I came here late one night and had a Original FATBurger with thin fries. This is my first time trying this chain and have to say the burgers are quite good, classic style with nothing too fancy. Looking for a tasty classic burger without all the extra flash check this place out. read more

Bomb! Great good. Good size burgers. You get exactly what you want. Great service. The ambiance is chill.

Much better than their star ratings. No way. I love this place. Got the turkey burger and chicken sandwich twice this past month. Fries. Chicken wings also. Loved it. This was a Fatburger about 15 years ago.... they changed hands for a while and they CAME BACK !!! YAHHHHHH read more

The cashier was very rude!!! OMG I felt that she was racism toward me any ways God bless you young lady. She dyed her hair with a very colorful color so you guys know how she is !!!! read more

What a disappointment! We ordered online and we're told the food would be ready at 5:58. My son arrived on time and waited FORTY MINUTES for the food. No explanation and certainly no apology from staff. I even tried calling the number listed and the calls wouldn't go through. In the end, we overpaid for truly average food. We're done here. read more

Just finish our meal and The turkey burger was amazing!!! The customer service was great and I love the energy from the staff. Thank you fat burger read more

I eat here with my dad a lot. The burgers are so dang good and the fries they always make them hot and crispy. The people behind the counter are so sweet and welcoming, I really love coming here. Keep up the great work! And thanks again for all the great meals read more

I am a long time Fatburger fan. However , on this visit I noticed that not one employee was wearing gloves. At the very least , the people assembling the burgers should be wearing gloves. This was a major turn off for me . Food prep people should ALWAYS wear Gloves. What's up with this. I may need to reconsider going back to this location. read more

Terrible service food is trash. Even as a regular customer they won't even let you use the bathroom unless you buy something. Completely rude I will never be there again. Try a Pollo Loco instead. read more

It was a little late so many restaurants were closed. Figured that I hadn't had Fatburger in a while (and I heard they have the Impossible burger) so I thought "why not?" as I drove by. Well, I'll tell you why not. Over $10 for just the burger (no fries). It was over $14 for the meal. Decided I was only going to get the burger. The cashier had a tough time counting change. I'm staying at a hotel and after paying I asked the cashier if I could get a cup of ice b/c I had some water at the hotel. She said "of course.... i just have to charge you for the cup." I said "how much is the cup?" Her response: $3.20 (and she seemed so certain that I was going to pay that for a cup of ice). Another customer waiting for her food looked at me like "seriously?" I returned the look of baffle. I said "no thank you. I'm good." and the cashier was a bit shocked that I didn't want to pay over $3 for a cup of ice. The burger wasn't great. I've had it at other restaurants and it was much better (for far less than $10). Needless to say, not planning on returning. Ugh. read more

I love the Fatburger Franchise, but this place doesn't prepare the burgers with the same love as other locations. They really skimp on the mayo, Mustard and relish combination that makes Fatburger great, leading to a dry experience comparatively. I'll drive out to the Redondo Location in the future. Been here 5 times, so I've given it a chance. read more

I've been going to Fatburger for 45 years starting at the original L.A. location. I've eaten at this franchise just once and my burger was excellent! Cooked medium just as requested, along with "the works"! Not sure why they're only getting 3 Stars but I'll definitely be back! read more

Always order online. Food is consistent and service is friendly. Go for the burgers and shakes, there are better wings to be had.

Great burgers and wings! Staff was fast and friendly and wife loved the Maui Banana Shake!

Excellent. Fast & friendly, clean, plenty of free parking. Never heard of relish on a hamburger but it was delicious. I'll be back!

HELP!!!! I think I just clogged an artery! I came here with my son tonight. I ordered the baby fat and my son order the fat burger. It was probably the worst burger I have ever had in my life it was so greasy and salty. About halfway through my son's burger he squeezed it and a bunch of fat plopped on his plate and he couldn't eat the rest. I guess that is why they call it Fat Burger. read more

I have not been to Fatburger's in way too long and was craving my usual. The place was empty, the cashier and two working the grill. I ordered two hamburgers with extra grilled onions to go.I did not open the burgers until I got home and too upset to go back. They both had a minimal amount of onions, less than what Carl's Jr. would normally serve. There were no other customers so no excuse of being too busy. read more
