    Great Balls of Fire added bacon
    Frank G.

    I can't believe it's been 4 years since I've been here! Was craving lunch this afternoon and came to see what spots had any recent good reviews; Good Times was one of them. Glad I chose to come here today! Felt like getting delivery, food came hot and fresh, soda was a little less carbonated but still had really great flavor. Burger was sooooo good! Got the Great Balls of Fire and added some bacon to it! Patty was juicy, lettuce and tomato were fresh, pepper jack cheese was a great choice for this burger and the bacon was the cherry on top. The Buffalo Chips are an absolute sleeper! Best substitute for fries, almost like waffle fries and homemade potato chips had a baby. Crispy, flavorful and delicious! Make sure to get a side of the house made ranch for dipping. Love how even after 4 years this place still has the ultimate customer service. They still wrote a sweet note on my bag and it's the little things like that, that make me wanna come back, they truly care about their customers. Ambiance is always great when you come to eat here. Old school diner vibes! Love it! Such a gem of a restaurant on Mooney Blvd, shouldn't be skipped on if you're looking for some incredible burgers, plus they have breakfast and tons of other delicious items to choose from on their menu if you're not in a burger mood. But once you've had one, you're gonna wanna make this a regular stop.

    Such a fun and delicious place to eat! My son and I went here and had a wonderful time and were pleasantly surprised by how delicious the food is! We both got the Duke burger, we shared a side salad and he got a chocolate milkshake. The milkshake tasted like quality ice cream and the patty on the burger was so flavorful. This has become a new favorite!

    This is a cute little 50s style diner. The walls are covered with memorabilia and the waitresses are wearing poodle skirts. Our waitress was very atrocious and friendly. First, we split a banana strawberry milkshake. There were three of us splitting it because we each just wanted a small bit, but it was even less than we expected. They only brought us the glass, they didn't bring the remainder in the tin like diners typically do. It tasted great though. I had the BLT with avocado on sourdough. It was pretty good, but the bacon and the bread were pretty greasy. I also had a side salad, which was tasty and fresh, a pretty standard diner side salad. Overall we had a fun meal.

    For juicy burgers and delicious fries this place is a must! I didn't know this place existed until I casually started searching diners. The meat quality was amazing, nice juicy thick patty, not over cooked like most burger places. They also use Harris Ranch beef. The inside of this place takes you back to a classic diner spot. The service was great super friendly and helpful. Will be back to try out more of their menu.

    This place is cozy and the staff was very welcoming! I love the 50's theme. I had The Fonz burger with sweet potato fries and my hubby had the Blue Hawaii burger with a side salad. Everything was tasty. I loved the sweet potato fries.

    The place is cute especially if you love the 50's /60's. The food was ok, not anything crazy special. The chili beans were homemade so it's better just as a chili and not in your fries in my personal experience. The staff was super seeet and was on top of our service. Overall it was good but I don't think it's a place I'd ever come back too.

    Wake Up Little Suzi

    New to Visalia and was looking for a place to take the family that came to visit. Thought the old school look would be cool, and I'm a big burger guy. Got the Wake up Little Suzi with garlic fries. Big fan of burgers that include egg. Reminds me of the Royal Robin from Red Robin. Pretty good solid burger would definitely order again. Garlic fries were fine. Want to try their buffalo chips or loaded fries next. Server was friendly, and service was quick. Definitely enjoyed the old school diner feel.

    We've visited Good Times many times over the years and it NEVER disappoints. The service is always fast and friendly, the prices are good for the plate full of food you get, and the food itself is always excellent. We all have our favorites; burgers, chicken burgers, and sammiches- everything is delicious. And their sides! SO good. While their garlic fries are bombdiggity, I HIGHLY recommend the Buffalo Chips! They're like rippled, deep fried potatoes, and They... Are... Amazeballs! Dip 'em in some ranchy ranch (or ketchup- you really can't go wrong with these things), and your taste buds will thank you. The restaurant has a great 50's vibe to it, and all the main dishes have fun 50's themed names. So head on over, and travel back in time to enjoy a great meal in a fun spot. And don't forget to ring the bell on your way out!

    What an awesome little spot cutely decorated and the food was delicious. I didn't get to try a shake as they don't service them at breakfast time we went in around 10:30.

The indoor seating place is well placed and doesn't feel too crowded. Being from out of town, been fortunate to have their breakfast and lunch. Breakfast: had the chicken fried steak, egg and hashbrown. Big portion enough to take some home. The breakfast was good but nothing flavorful to brag about but what you would expect for a good chicken fried steak. Cooked perfect. Lunch: had the fried burger and regular fries. The burger was a good size, seasoned well and cooked (medium) as requested. The fries were plain and i would recommend the curly fries. I also had the sampler plate. Onion rings: cut and cooked good. Fried pickles: tasted as they should. Cheese curds: batter well but needed and little longer to cook. The cheese had that laffy taffy stretch. Chicken wings: buffalo. The flavor and cook was tasteful but just too small. About the size of a fun size snicker. Overall: the service and food is still great. I recommend this place for sure.

The interior is modernized (not overdone), clean, and welcoming, with a nice quote on the wall that adds character. I ordered the breakfast burrito ($11). It's simple but very well seasoned (scrambled eggs, potatoes, and cheddar cheese). No meat, which I was craving, but the herbs and spices definitely carry the flavor. Not sure what they use, but it's tasty. Portion-wise, it's a solid medium-to-large burrito and comes split in half, so it could easily be shared. I've seen bigger burritos elsewhere, but this one is filling enough. That said, $11 feels a bit pricey for something so simple. I totally understand inflation, but I think adding a protein option like bacon, ham, or sausage would really elevate it and make the price feel more justified. Service was quick; about five minutes total and the cashier was very friendly. I mentioned it was my first time there and that I'm part of Yelp Elite. I kind of wish there had been a bit more engagement at that point, like suggesting a popular item or checking with the manager about anything for Yelpers. Not a dealbreaker at all, just a missed opportunity to go the extra mile. Overall, good food, chill environment, friendly service, and efficient turnaround.

    While passing through Visalia we found this place. There aren't many places like this where we live…read moreso we thought we'd give it a try. Entered in to a very open and clean seating area. There is both indoor and outdoor seating options. Inside they are picnic table style with bench seating and long tables or counter seating near the windows. Outdoors was set up with table and chair patio style seating. Immediately greeted by a friendly employee and after we mentioned it was our first time there she gave us a thorough overview of how it works. One thing we really liked was the customer has the option to select their "signature" dogs or you can create your own using all the toppings they have available via a slip of paper. You just check the boxes of what you want on your all beef hot dog (1/4 lb.), a polish sausage or bratwurst. I discovered afterwards they also offer "mini" dogs, which I should have gotten because they are quite large and my eyes were bigger than my stomach after I ordered a hot dog and a homemade corndog. My daughter got a polish dog and a homemade cheese dog (like a corn dog but using cheese instead of a hot dog). I got tater tots as a side and my daughter the homemade potato chips. All the food was tasty and we'd get them all again, though as I mentioned above I'd probably go "mini" on one or both because together there was just too much food for me. If we go through Visalia again, we'll definitely return.
