    Pastrami burger
    Sam C.

    This place is awesome. Get the pastrami burger -- it's the best! This is a small family-run business with just great burgers. There are a bunch of different options but I think the pastrami burger is the best. I think they grill the pastrami to give it even a bit more flavor. There's a new outdoor dining area that's surprisingly clean and comfortable. Definitely check it out.

    This place isn't far from my home, but it's a half mile past my usual turn off towards Hansen Dam, but it was recently on some posted list of Best burgers around LA, so I had to finally take the 10 minute drive to check it out. Honestly, I really expected the quintessential greasy-spoon looking joint, bur I was immediately taken aback by how clean and well-maintained everything was, including the small strip mall that it is located on the outer corner. It didn't come across as a greasy spoon at all, but at its heart, I'd say it's a passionately cared for greasy spoon experience! Their limited hours limit the time I can come, but I just happen to be around on this Saturday and decided to run down. They definitely maintain a line of people, so even though they are a hidden Jim to some of us, others know of its existence and have been longtime customers. They treated everybody with professionalism and expeditious service, and the line moves through the process fairly efficiently. Once you get to the window, you realize how even the back of the house where the kitchen area is located, and you can tell that the cleanliness and professional professionalism follow through from the front of the house to the back of the house. The pick up window is on the outside/street-side of the building and you will notice that everything getting prepared for pick up is being intentionally prepared well and not just slapped together, another sign of an owner who cares about every aspect of their business. Since it was my first time, I just ordered the standard cheeseburger and onion rings. If you wanna know how greasy a greasy spoon actually is, the onion rings are a good indicator and even mirror moments after he handed me the bag and I reached inside the onion rings were not any greasier then they needed to be (being cooked on hot oil and all) and they were cooked perfectly. I enjoyed both my burger and my onion rings, and there were a couple of fries, accidentally attached from the basket and I'm not sure that I would like their fries too much because they seem more like Five Guys fries which are a little limp; I'm sure you could ask for extra crispy though. Overall, it was a nice trip down the road to try someplace new and I got a decent meal for my effort. Honestly, my favorite part was just how much the owners care about how the place looks and is run and I will support that work and business ethic any day of the week. Kudos.

    I've been coming here for years. I don't even like chili cheese fries, but I do right here. They're so delicious their burgers taste so authentic and delicious. My favorite is the beef and chicken bowl. The pictures do not do it. Any justice so delicious.

    Hadn't been here in so many years for no reason in particular but I'm glad I decided to return, not disappointed at all! Outdoor seating is limited I recommend pick up orders unless you find a good spot with shade. Got the cheese burger it was good 7/10 Chili cheese fries 10/10 Onion rings 6/10

    Was here last week, man all I can say, what a hidden gem in the san fernando valley area. Located in pacoima, saw this ad in fb, I said to myself I got to try this and never regreted going in there. Their burgers were amazing! The patties and pastramis were cooked right, and perfectly seasoned. super soft buns with the right amount of veggies and sauce. Fries was cooked to perfection too. Had the signature burger and the one with the chilli and pastrami and they were bomb! Place is clean enough. My only complain when you eat there, because it's an open air seating, are the flies. They Could have used fly fans in each of the table. Service was pretty fast. Pricewise very reasonable considering the quality of the burgers you are getting! Will definitely come back here!

    Amazing! I will come back to update this review. I wanted to post the pictures. I just wish they had longer hours!

    I've been here 5 times and today was my last. After the first time I ordered chili cheese fries I noticed the fries were really undercooked and I figured, that fine I'll let them know next time. For the following 4 times I went there I specifically asked them to give me WELL DONE FRIES. the girl at the register said yes yes I got it and, you guessed it. Same undercooked soggy fries. Literally today after placing my order and asking her 4 times if she got the WELL DONE FRIES PART, since she didn't write it down. She said yes, came back to work open the foil wrapped soggy box, ( literally 6 minute drive from there). Yup same undercooked soggy fries. I'm done with this place.

    What can I say I love this place!…read more Blanca and Genesis are always the best when it comes to customer service!! They're super helpful and always have the best cocktail recommendations. This has to be one of my favorite bars in the San Fernando Valley. The vibes here are super chill. And I love how they offer free parking in the back. Their chicken chipotle panini with truffle fries is to die for I always find myself craving it. Also they make a super great dirty martini and to make it extra dirty I always ask them to add pickle juice SOO GOOD! I also have to say their undressed Bloody Mary is a 10/10 especially when it come with sum celery. THEIR COSMOS ALSO HIT THE SPOT! This place is so worth checking out!

    Finally a spot close to home where the food is decent and the drinks are good…read more I usually come with friends here. Drinks are aight. Nothing crazy but good. Good beer selection as well. I've had their burgers in the past which are good. Nothing life changing but solid. My favorites are the Brussel sprouts add bacon and Buffalo Chicken Tenders for apps. Both of these are great. The strips which I'm pretty sure aren't prepared in house but they're on the lighter breaded sided. So it's not all breading. The blue cheese is fantastic too. My always go to is the Steak Chimichurri Salad. This is amazing. Especially if you're doing low-carb / keto. Salad dressing is very light. Steak cooked perfectly. And the rest of the toppings are avocado, red onion and grape tomatoes add a subtle balance. Delicious. I always get this as it is filling and healthy. One thing I would avoid is the asada fries. Those were forgetful.

    For the win--literally!…read more After a few hours of shopping, my daughter, granddaughter, and I decided to grab dinner at For the Win. We were all craving burgers, and nothing hits like a fresh smash burger. I ordered the double cheeseburger with bacon and all the toppings, plus a side of sweet potato fries and a cold brisk tea. Everything was delicious. The restaurant was super clean and had a festive vibe with Christmas music playing, which we loved. The staff were very welcoming, and the customer service was top-notch. We'll definitely be back to this location.

    I had a pretty frustrating experience ordering from For The Win today, which completely defeated…read morethe purpose of ordering ahead. I placed an online order through their website, and it quoted about a 25-minute prep time with a ready window around 2:56 -3:06 PM. I planned accordingly and even arrived earlier so I could pick it up fresh and avoid waiting. However, just five minutes after placing the order, I received a text saying it was already ready. That immediately raised a red flag, because if you're paying $13+ for a double burger, you expect it to be made closer to your arrival time, not immediately. When I arrived, the burger was already cold. When I brought this up, the employee I spoke with repeatedly said "it's not my fault" and pointed to someone else, instead of taking any ownership or even acknowledging the issue. It was a really poor way to handle a simple customer concern. Eventually, after some back and forth, the burger was remade, but I had to wait another 10-15 minutes. And ironically, it took longer to make it this time than it did after I placed the online order. But then now I wa stuck waiting defeating the whole purpose of ordering ahead. A manager eventually came over and was polite, but by that point the experience had already been frustrating. They also threw away the original burger instead of offering to let me keep it, which felt wasteful. On top of that, when I asked for a couple cups of water for my daughter, I was told I'd need to purchase a bottle, which felt pretty tone-deaf given the situation and didn't even think to offer me any anything for the misunderstanding and having to wait extra time now... The bigger issue here is the lack of coordination and communication. If you're going to quote customers a pickup time, especially for hot food, the order should be made accordingly--not immediately after it's placed. Otherwise, you're guaranteeing that the food won't be fresh when the customer arrives. Between the timing issue, the lack of ownership from staff, and the overall handling of the situation, this was a disappointing experience. I usually like the food, but the service and process today really need improvement.
