I always see this place since it's across the street from where I get my oil change, so I decided to give it a try thinking I would get a nice solid burger and fries. I regretted it. They post a sign saying that they cook their burgers fresh to order, so that's always good news. Was it worth the wait? NO. I ordered a #3 combo. The meat tasted bland, the bun wasn't toasted, and it just looked really sad when I got it. The fries were hot, so I appreciated that, but they were a little heavy handed on the seasoning, so they were salty. They were probably just frozen crinkle cut fries, so nothing special. I hoped they would at least have fresh cut fries. Would I go again? NO. An In-N-Out burger and fries combo would be better and it would cost less. #modestoneedsbetterfood read more

Got takeout on this place. Walked in and right away noticed the chefs were NOT wearing masks. I understand that it may not be required in certain areas however it's unacceptable in the COVID times. Have some decency, especially as one preparing food. Don't think we will be back. read more

The cheeseburger was amazing! Wonderful flavor, juicy but not greasy! Great fresh toppings! The french fries and milkshakes were also great! And the clincher for me was the service. The people were kind and friendly! This topped off the delicious burgers and made it a great experience! read more

Been sitting in the restaurant for 20 minutes and watching drive threw go but here is my food 22 minutes later. Don't stop for lunch

Good solid burgers here! Big, varied menu with lots to choose from too. Quality of food from the freshness of ingredients, to the well seasoned meat, and portion sizes are all on point. The dining area could be aired out better and table seating better arranged but overall the cleanliness of area is good. Service seems quite above average with all employees clean, attentive, and friendly. read more

Kinda wishing we could give zero stars. My family and I ordered $70 worth of food. We get up to the window, there's multiple items missing and a large drink missing. My husband asked for our large drink, and he hands us a child sized drink. So we pulled out of the drive through and my husband went inside. He asked for the items that were missing that we ordered, and for the correct size drink. The guy argued but gave us the poppers but not the drink we paid for. My husband didn't even feel like dealing with him anymore so he walked out. Also, they clearly didn't change the oil they use to cook the food, because it made the food taste AWFUL with a bad aftertaste. Won't be returning. For that price we could get a great family deal somewhere else and NOT get jipped. read more

This place is awesome and has great prices! The drive thru took didn't take long even though they were busy. Definitely one of my new favorite spots! read more

Five Star Burger Modesto - 12. Bacon and Eggs Burger Combo - Burgers Near Me - Modesto, California

Rip off...$17 for a combo with a couple sides of ranch...used to have good prices but went up tremendously

I'm a burger person, so trying out this place for first time. Very, very good. Good prices, very good taste, good portion, many choices. I will be back. Toasted buns give it a great taste, I had the single and the meat was a good size. It's worth it. read more

Five Star Burger Modesto - Burgers Near Me - Modesto, California

Good food but sitting in the drive through for 25 minutes not one, not two but 5 times I finally think I am done. As well as going on the inside on multiple occasions and still waiting a long time.They probably should invest in another cook. read more

Hi yelpers :) this is an update (my last review was 2 yrs ago.) So, basically Five Star remains one of my all time local faves. I'm updating this because they've updated their menu and also, it's worth talking about! So, this was my go to breakfast burrito and burger place. But, having now tried more of the menu, I gotta say they nail it every time (bar the once I tried pastrami, and to be fair, I'm always on the fence with pastrami no matter who makes it.) I've had the chicken basket, shrimp basket, and fish and chips basket. All three have generous portions, for one, so you will not walk away hungry. And, if you go with a friend, there's enough to share. I've also made my way through some of their burgers. I've Swiss mushroom, California, and knock out burger. And they are so good! The price range is about 6-8ish dollars depending if you want just the burger or you go for a combo. On a budget? Not a prob. The star burger is their basic burger for under 2 bucks. I should mention that the star burger isn't the mustard and ketchup variety. They use burger sauce. That is a deal maker/breaker for some people, so it's worth mentioning. My kids love the corn dogs and grilled cheese. Now, this has taken me 2 years to get thru this menu, haha. I actually try to cook most of my meals and eat healthy choices. But, when I splurge it's normally5 star, Umi Sushi, Tasty Thai or a new place. And, having gone there for years now, the people are a major factor on why I return. They are so nice to me and my kids. Today, my daughter got dressed up just to go there. Mind you, she's 5 and that meant dressing up as a bunny, haha. Bottom line, try it out. It's a local business worth supporting :) read more

Five Star Burger Modesto - Five Star Grilled cheese and chocolate milk for lunch on Saturday :) - Burgers Near Me - Modesto, California

Very horrible dry bun on both of our hamburgers! Taste was gross . My dog thought is was good but she will eat anything! Over paid for gross meals for the family! My grandson said the shrimp basket was fair not to tasty! I wanted to give it no stars! I asked for a diet and got regular! Wasted the drink too I don't see how they could service this type of food. My grandson even through out his ice cream cone he said it tasted strange! Wow there went $33.00 down the trash!Shrimp Basket read more

Fantastic, Food is always Hot and fresh. Food taste is a Four although hot food makes up for extra star. Nothing like a hot burger with hot fries.. Great Job! FYI you do need to wait a while for your food as it's made to order, no pre made fries/ burger patties like your fast food restaurants. read more

Quality takes time at this greasy spoon...I know it's quite the paradox. This is not your typical fast-food drive-thru, they actually prepare your food to order. Therefore, patience is a must if you go or just don't cue up if there are more than say 3 cars. LOL. We've tried the burgers, Philly and chicken cheesesteak, chili cheese dog, zucchini sticks, fries, and chicken nuggets. Everything was tasty and fresh (crisp lettuce and ripe tomatoes). The nuggets are my son's favorite of all the ff places and that's saying a lot for an 8-year-old! read more

Definitely my go to spot if I'm looking to get a good cheeseburger in south Stockton. Always fast when making the food but the quality never seems rushed. I would recommend this place if you're looking for a good cheap and fast meal read more

This food was not good, I ordered 1 burger, took 22 minutes & I only ate 1/2 the burger it just was not good

Horrible place, small burgers served cold , weird smell inside, tables need some better cleaning, won't be coming back

Just an FYI they don't change their gloves in this restaurant!! The employees use the same pair all day long never changing them!! They wash them as they go because they are "expensive" I worked there for 1 day & quit I will never eat at this establishment again after learning this disgusting trait you should not either!!! read more

Ordered Grubhub from 5 star burger and had to call 3 times once they answered the girl put me on hold (but all she did was put the phone down) then I over heard them about just hanging up the phone or disconnect it. Wtf the amount of disrespect. It was 2 young ladies that worked on a Wednesday the 3rd of June 2020. Please do not go there the most unprofessional establishment I've ever been on the phone with. read more

I'd pass on this restaurant the quality of the burger is what you could DIY at home mainly I saw the guy at smart final buying everything I thought it be for them when I tasted the burgers it was greasy I though it must be the meat and it was the lowest quality more fat no lean! Also it's really expensive when it comes to bad food. read more

Just got one of the best burgers I've had in my life and I couldn't be happier. This place is less than half a mile from my house and I just ate there for the first time since moving to town. Had a milkshake last week and decided to pop in after work. I ordered this burger with cheese sticks and good Lordy it blew me away. To be honest the pictures on the menu have larger beef patties but after the first bite it didn't even matter. So happy 10/10 would recommend read more

Five Star Burger Modesto - Burgers Near Me - Modesto, California

Tried quite a few times, chicken wrap, hamburger, and spicy chicken burger. Such a disappointment. Hamburger was sooooooo thin and dry. Crispy chicken wrap, was nasty fried chicken strips where I could taste old oil. Chicken burger was alright but still nothing amazing. Fries also had an old oil smell to it. The inside of the restaurant is sooooooo dirty and sticky feeling. A lot of homeless looking/ dirty people coming in and out. Also hanging out in front. Honestly needs some work to be done. read more

I've waited awhile to try this place out. Tonight was the night to try it out. My daughter ordered a little burger, my Mom ordered a veggie burger, my youngest 5 chicken nuggets and I ordered a grilled chicken wrap with avocado, we also ordered a banana smoothie, cherry shake, chocolate shake and a lemonade. I docked a star because we received a soda and not a lemonade. Banana smoothie was good. They didn't put enough bananas for my tasting but it was good. My mom said her veggie burger was really good. I loved my wrap, so delicious! I tried my Mom's cherry shake and it was really yummy. My daughter ate all her burger and my youngest ate all her nuggets.We had the curly fries too and I loved the way they were seasoned. We ordered through the drive thru so I can't comment on the inside. I can't wait for my husband to try this place out, he will love it. We will definitely be back. read more

Pretty good burgers. The fried pickles are amazing and so is the sauce they're served with. They are a little on the pricey side, but have some good specials. read more

Just discovered this place & it's delicious. Disappointing that 1 guy working wasn't wearing a mask at all, another was wearing his around his mouth only (not covering his nose). The female working drive through gets credit though as she had hers on & correctly. Each table inside & out on the patio was available for seating w/ no social distancing protocol in place. I give 5 stars for food & zero stars for COVID safety. read more

I was eating here about once a week, I almost always get their version of a Knockout Burger. I noticed that sometimes they would leave off the Jalapeno Pepper, which of course is a main ingredient to make it a KO Burger. Despite my complaints it continued happening, 7 times is not just a mistake, it's negligence. Then I started noticing that their Bacon is Cruddy, it has big Strings that cannot be chewed up. When I complained, they told me they had recently switched to a different Bacon, and that there were no problems with their current bacon. I don't know if she was lying to me or not, but I do know that I never used to find String in my Bacon, and even though she claimed their new Bacon was String Free, I still got String in my Bacon that very night. I spent on average $15.00 per visit, apparently THEY DON'T CARE even if you are a regular. I won't be back. Not ever again. read more

just now Visiting from Seattle, had heard many great things from family and friends here in Modesto. Decided to give it a try. Looked amazing online. Get to drive thru, waited 37 minutes to get to the window. Obviously, they're busy, but 37 minutes busy??? The killer was being ignored at the window for an additional six minutes while watching the two girls at the window talk to each other and giggle the whole time. Eventually just left, without food. No reason to attempt going back. :-/ read more

ROACHES AND FLYS: Not going to lie this place has some really good burgers and chicken sandwiches. HOWEVER, this place has roaches crawling on the ground and has a fly infestation flying everywhere inside the restaurant. And this is in the dine in area, imagine behind the counter or kitchen. I no longer crave eating here. read more

Burgers are five star, however the dining room was very dirty, sticky tables with food crumbs. Flys everywhere, couldn't eat in peace due to flys getting on my food. Employees were friendly and seem busy. read more

Amazing food, great service, what more can you ask for right? The food is made when ordered it takes 6-10 minutes but you have to realize that being made fresh, and when you get it it's piping hot every time fresh out the kitchen. I got the chicken philly today and with so many great options I have found my favorite burger/sandwich joint in Modesto. Make sure y'all give them a try read more

This is probably one of my favorite burger places in town! It has a huge variety of options as well as great customer service. It's definitely a hole in the wall that I wouldn't have known about if it wasn't for word for the mouth. Definitely recommend to everyone! read more

I didn't care for this place the first time I visited. (Summer time, crowded, flies, sticky floors). Friends wanted to try here, so I figured I'd give it a second chance, NOPE, no more chances. I walked in and realized it hadn't improved. Dirty, sticky floors and tables, servers were on the line of being rude, no friendliness at all. Fresh hamburger?, mine was dry and messy. Strangely I noticed the ceiling is painted green, too many colors in here, orange, red, green, white, yellow, menus everywhere on the walls. Too much and not enough read more

Sooooo good for some fast food. Philly wasn't the best but it wasn't bad. The money was in those jalapeño poppers for sure. They were definitely the best from a fast food place. Love that they have a drive through too. The banana split was amazing. Even after a 20 min car ride home! So you know it's good! I will be back. read more

Best burger place in Modesto! Seriously, the burgers are big, juicy, and just delicious! Their shakes are tasty! You can tell the burgers are super fresh. Try the zucchini fries! read more

Been here a couple of times now, all drive thru visits. Love the burgers !!! Very tasty... and they have a good variety and size. Corn dogs are pretty awesome. ( They should add a Hot-link Corn Dog to there menu). read more

The most unprofessional crew ever. They were out of strawberry, and chocolate ice cream. Cashier says.... We can just add any syrup to give you the color you want Lol Gee That sounds like a place I'd love to rush back to! NOT!!! Then we ordered a snickers star blend.... Cashier says... Oh, i don't know why it's on the menu We never had it Hmmmm Just then An older guy there says I bought some When we opened Cashier #2 walks by No, we used it all. Hmmmmmmmmm So who orders stock here?? I had to ask Who owns this place?? Since virtually every customer is seemingly unhappy here! Their reply......? It's family owned Does the "family" have a name?? No We don't know who they are Is stated almost in unison from cashier #'s 1 & 2, AND a red headed guy from the back. Whom all looked not very happy working there! That's YOUR customers experience today Mr./Mrs. unknown owner family! This was visit #2 for me And last Visit #1 had a very poorly treated African American gentleman that had his order incorrectly made 5 times!!!!! If I hadn't witnessed it with my wife..... I'd never have believed it! Then He ordered it to go! As he received it on a sit down tray the 5th time! Poor guy did a great job not giving them a piece of his mind! He should have!!!!! (-)5 stars read more

The food is phenomenal. Very solid classic style burgers. If your familiar with Charlie Brown's burgers they are neck and neck in quality. I only dropped a star because the service is very slow. It seems like the staff is trying to get a grasp on how everything has come together and I am certain it will improve with practice. read more
