    This is the front.

    Amazing staff snd food!!! Had a double hamburger and onion rings along with a Lemon beer. The bartender was hot and recommend this beer. Ordered food was fast and do good we will comeback. The restaurant was extremely clean and many friendly people inside. Parking was easy and plenty of space.

    "Left GRUMPY afterwards!!!" -Location and vibe of restaurant is cool. Can't go wrong with two garage door windows. Opens up to spacious outdoor seatings. -Bar decor (see pix.) Anything on tap is usually good. There were a few local brew offerings. My timing was off, got a last half pour and Keg needed changing. Pretty sure i got a half old half new pint. Very flat "bootsy." -Was hoping for a super bomb, smashed burger. Fixing was fresh, but nothing amazing that stands out. Beef patty had more of a "over smashed, on the grill too long" flavor then anything else -Onion rings wasn't crispy. Kid likes the tots. Hopefully they kick the burger game up a notch. We pass by all the time heading East on 80.

    Wonderful customer service!! Staff is super nice! Great smash burger, really good crispy bacon!! Chili cheese fries were super good too, fries nice and crispy, chili nice and hearty. Really good milkshake as well. Overall great experience!

    Grumpy burger  with fries, onion rings and chocolate custard shake!
    Carl M.

    Chocolate custard shake: 5 stars, but next time I'll ask for it in a beer glass, instead of an ocean-polluting throwaway plastic cup . Grumpy burger: 5 stars, no complaints! Yummy!! Burger bowl: wife polished it all off. She is Polish, after all...5 stars. French fries: 5 stars, 6 if I could do that. Fresh, hot, appropriately salty. Onion rings: overcooked for my taste but wife liked them. There was one that was less cooked than the others and that one was perfect. 4 stars. House made sauces: quite good but a little of the dilly ranch goes a long way. Still, 5 stars. Atmosphere: pleasant. Big tv for the sports fans, lovely fireplace in the corner. I want to sit next to it on my next visit. Neat and clean restaurant. 5 stars. Service: cheerful and friendly. 5 stars. Beer selection: meh. Only one dark(ish) beer and it's a boring one. I hate IPAs, so I like to see a nice porter or stout on a beer menu. I skipped beer since there was nothing really for me. 2 stars for that. Price: $46 for the two of us. On par for the current market if you ask me. Well done, Grumpy! We will be back!

    Smack bugger and tots
    Jorge G.

    I was on my way to a different bugger establishment but then thought about supporting small businesses. Let me tell you this place did not disappoint. The food was delicious. The place was very open, had plenty of seats inside and out, and had a bar. They also had TVs everywhere to enjoy sports games. I had the double smash with cheese added jalapeño and and order of tater tots with a side of grumpy sauce. Omg the bigger had amazing flavor , the patty was perfectly cooked. The tots were nice and crispy. I'm glad I stopped by to support them.

    Grumpy burger with cheese, onion rings and a grilled chicken salad.

    Had lunch here after seeing it from the freeway. The Smashburger I ordered was very good. The house made burger sauce was excellent and the produce was fresh. My only issue is that the burger patty was a little too thin. The menu says it's a quarter pound patty but when smashed, get's pretty thin. Perhaps a 1/3 pound patty would be a better choice. The onion rings were good and the ranch dressing to dip them in was flavorful. There is no table service but employees stopped by the table a couple times to make sure everything was good with us. The restrooms were clean and properly stocked with towels, soap, etc. This was a good experience and I'll be back.

    The front of Grumpy's

    Found this little gem while driving up out of the Sacramento valley fog. It's a smashburger place! YUMMY!!! We both had a bacon and cheese smashburger, him plain, me with everything! It was mouthwatering! Of course they offer variations and other things like chicken sandwiches. Not sure what other sides they have but I had the fries, which were perfectly crisp and my husband had tots, also nice and crunchy. They have several beers on tap and soft drinks. The staff were very friendly and attentive. The inside has several tvs and is comfortable with a varity of seating.

    Krispy Chicken Sandwich, undercooked
    Megan T.

    We placed a pick up order for a burger and chicken sandwich, both cut in half. They did not notice that half the chicken sandwich was raw after it had been cut. Hope they didn't use that knife to cut other patron's food. Otherwise, onion rings, tots & ranch were good. Burger was decent, but messy. Order was ready for pick up on time.

There was a good amount of outdoor seating along with a few tables inside as well. The vibe there was pretty lively and fun, almost reminded me of old-time burger joints. After ordering my Spicy Johnny burger and onion rings, it only took about 15 minutes to receive it, which is understandable because the food is fresh and made to order! At first glance, it worried me that the burgers seemed slightly small and I was worried I would still be hungry afterwards. However, I was decently satisfied after eating (although I do still wish it was slightly bigger). The burger was packed with flavor and extremely juicy. The spice on it packed a decent punch that satisfied my tastebuds! And the onion rings were great! They weren't hot when I received them, but they were still crunchy.

It took about 15 mins for my order but worth it for fresh food. For the sauces, they offered a variety including spicy thousand island, ranch, and etc. The burgers and onions rings were high quality and delicious. I was wondering if the burgers came with sides since they are in the pricier side, but it doesn't. But after eating my meal, I was pretty satisfied and everything tasted great, that the prices were justified. From photos, the burgers seemed small, but was happy to find out the burgers were a good size. I ordered the New Fashion and added cheese to it, plus family size onion rings. The burger was very filling and tasted really fresh and flavorful without being overpowering. But I do wish there was more lettuce than just one piece. The onion rings were made perfectly and wasn't overly greasy. After my meal, I went back to order a small ice cream cone dipped in chocolate. I love how they include this cute little plastic anti-drip cone holder! Overall, the entire experience was good and everything was delicious. I'd come back! (Random note; I've never seen a banana shaped wet floor sign before but that made me giggle hehe)

The café focuses on vegan and vegetarian dishes that emphasize whole ingredients, bright flavors, and colorful presentation. The atmosphere feels relaxed and community oriented. The interior has a casual café style that encourages people to sit down, enjoy a meal, and spend time talking or working. It has the type of environment you often find in smaller towns where the café becomes part of the neighborhood culture. The menu includes a variety of plant-based options such as bowls, salads, smoothies, and sandwiches. The dishes are thoughtfully put together with a mix of vegetables, grains, and sauces that create balanced flavors and textures. One thing that stood out to me was the freshness of the ingredients. The vegetables tasted vibrant and the meals felt nourishing rather than heavy, which is exactly what you expect from a plant-focused café. Service during my visit was friendly and welcoming, and the overall experience felt relaxed from start to finish. Overall, Nectar Café offers a refreshing option for healthy, plant-based meals in Auburn. If you are looking for fresh ingredients and a relaxed café atmosphere, it is definitely worth stopping by.

Everything that my friends and I ordered was VERY GOOD. We all ordered a different type of fry on the side and they were all VERY GOOD. This is the kind of place where every thing on the menu is VERY GOOD. It is definitely not the healthiest place you could eat at because their focus is on the food being VERY GOOD. Nevertheless, even the healthy options like the mushroom ciabatta sandwich and the zucchini fries were VERY GOOD. Toasted to a perfect crisp, buttery, freaking delicious. The restaurant itself has a local charm. The ambiance is dictated by what the locals need, not the city people coming in to rent a lake house for the weekend (myself, my boyfriend, and his tech friends). It's refreshing to be somewhere that feels more like a genuine small town tavern than a flashy restaurant that covers itself in flowers and sculptures to be a photoshoot op for you and your girlfriends.
