Got pastrami dip sandwich, small bowl of chili, tuna melt sandwich and large fries…read more Their pastrami is sliced super thin and not salty like other places. I could only eat half. Nice size. Last time we ordered the pastrami chili cheese fries. That order was massive and fed at least 4 people. This time we got bowl of chili on the side. Chili was bland, needed salt. We used it to dip with the fries to make our own version of chili cheese fries. Overall, decent quality quick meal and large portion.

This is the worst Hat location I've been to. First the man at the register forgot to give us our…read moredrinks. Second he got our order wrong, it had to be remade. Third the gravey tasted horrible. It tasted like it was concentrate only and it was incredibly salty. Fourth, there was a woman cleaning the tables but nobody taking out the overfilled trash in both trash cans inside the restaurant. Who wants to sit and eat next to a dump. Not going back to this location again. So far all the others have done it right.

Must try: Double Double Animal Style!…read more Why: Consistently hits the spot every time I come home! This is always one of my first meals coming home to OC from NYC. I crave In-N-Out and this location is convenient near home and the freeway. My typical order is a Double Double Animal Style with Fries and extra Spread. Same great taste and still more affordable than many burger joints especially compared to NYC. For a family of 3 it cost us $21 (3 burgers and shared fries). Notes: We came around 11:40am before the lunch crowd. There was only one person in front of us. By noon the line was nearly to the door but they had 3-4 cashiers so the line moved fast. I was also impressed by the staff: one cashier explained the secret menu to a guest, another worker walking around cleaning tables was making sure the guests were enjoying their meals, and another worker was making friendly conversations with other guests and they were laughing it up. All the workers were friendly, attentive, and professional. The restaurant continues to look clean even with the high foot traffic. Many tables indoors and some outdoors. Bathrooms too. When our order was ready, the worker gave us an In-N-Out hat and extra spread. Great service all around and once again, happy bellies!

I should probably say that I arrived at about midnight, so there were only a handful of patrons inside. No need to deal with rush hour crowds. I also was coming from the Irvine train station, where the Amtrak train I was on had broken down. So, I was also very hungry. I ordered a double double with cold cheese, both raw and grilled onions, mustard-fried patties, and chopped chilis, plus a fry light-well, and got a pink lemonade and 7UP mixed soda. Everything came out exactly to a T, was super flavorful, and also really affordable at $12.07 total. The place was a bit dirty, but it was also midnight on a Sunday, so they'd probably been slammed for hours. Nothing crazy though--I still enjoyed it. The place is also really large, one of the bigger In-N-Out interiors I've seen recently, which kind of reminded me of the store in Apple Valley. Overall, really good In-N-Out location. P.S. Thanks to Christian my cashier who got everything correct and was super friendly and helpful above and beyond my order.

This is their everyday hangout, inside all day. Management does NOT care. They said they're welcome inside like anyone else is. I'm trying to eat my meal and the stench makes it extremely uncomfortable. They bring their belongings inside too. Not only that, they use the bathroom for prolonged periods of time. It's crazy how management flat out refuses to do anything with the homeless people who sit inside everyday. I don't come here anymore due to the poor customer service and it becoming a homeless hangout.

I stopped by Crimson Coward and decided to try the Smash Burger, and it did not disappoint--10/10!…read moreThe burger was cooked fresh to order with a perfectly crispy patty, melty cheese, flavorful grilled onions, and plenty of pickles. I'm an extra-pickles kind of person, so I was more than happy to add even more! The fries were hot and seasoned well. I personally prefer my fries on the saltier side, so I added a little extra salt, but that's just my preference. One thing that really stood out was the customer service. Everyone was welcoming, friendly, and made the experience enjoyable from the moment I walked in. You can tell they take pride in serving fresh food, and the quality definitely shows. The restaurant was clean, the restrooms are available for customers only, and there was plenty of parking, which made the visit easy and convenient. They also had great music playing with a mix of throwback hits that added to the fun atmosphere. If you're craving a fresh, flavorful smash burger, this location is definitely worth checking out. I'll definitely be back to try more of the menu!

He said "excuse me" loudly, multiple times while she purposely ignored him. I got the homestyle sandwich which was entirely inedible. The bread was soaked in so much grease that the grease literally dripped down my chin and fingers when I took a bite. The chicken hardly passed as chicken at all. I actually hurt my tooth trying to bite into it. I ate 2 bites then threw it away. YUCK

My mother raced down to the store since closes at 6pm on Saturdays. She made it with 15 minutes to spare. A couple of older ladies were sitting in a booth eating. Behind the counter was a female putting stuff away and a male scraping the grill. The male took her order and she ordered a cheesesteak, an italian, and a club sandwich along with some fries. Upon ordering the club sandwich the male behind the counter told her they were not serving any sliced meat sandwiches. She asked do you mean cold sandwiches and he replied yes. He then proceeded to make the cheesesteak and the italian but not the club. He never cooked any fries and they appeared in a metal to-go container. The two sandwiches he did make were ok but the fries were the nastiest fries I have ever tasted in my life. They were clearly old fries, not even reheated. You should be ashamed to serve a human being that garbage. Now on to why we will never be back. Your posted hours of operation are 10:30 to 6pm on Saturday. You should be open those hours, not putting stuff away and telling customers you cant make them food because you want to close up shop early. Furthermore the bs excuse you gave was clearly a lie as you made the Italian sub which has 3 different kinds of sliced meat and I have never once seen anyone slice meat on the spot to make a sandwich at Philly's. You had no problem making 2 more sandwiches for the gentleman that came in as our food was being bagged up so logic says the time she came in wasnt an issue. That was before your posted closing hours. I felt like crap because I talked them out of getting The Hat, your competition right down the street and then your service and your food SUCKED. As I said, we wont be back. I hope you closing up shop early was worth it.
