I always see this place when I am in area. I decided to stop and get a hamburger and tater totes. I ordered a turkey burger with half tater tots and pinions rings . It was made fresh to order. Everything had flavor and the burger meat was tender. Service and atmosphere was cool. Plenty of seating outside in rear of restaurant and this place been open since 1959.

I love that you can see them work the grill from behind the ordering counter. It's a great place for a quick bite and there's ample outdoor seating. I look forward to going before 11am for their breakfast sandwich and burrito.

A local burger institution that always delivers. Home of the "combo" where you get a split hot dog in addition on your burger! A 50/50 fries and onion rings is also never a bad decision. Staff is super friendly and they accept card now! Seating is minimal to some spots in the back and a few counter/bar seats.

Cozy lil joint.

It is indeed a "stand" although there are a handful of counter stools around the side. But mostly this is a takeout spot. The "Combo" is a thick burger with all the fixings and a cut and split hot dog on top. Here's a hot tip: just order a hot dog. Or two hot dogs. The burger is nice and thick but not well-seasoned. On the other hand, the hot dog is huge and has a ton of rich meaty flavor. We also tried the 50/50 (onion rings and fries) and they were well-seasoned and very nice. But I would try the chili fries next time. Everything was cooked to order and the workers were delightful. Get the outstanding hot dogs. Well worth a visit.

Combo with chili cheese fries
Gary K.

Yes yes yes. Definitely recommend if you happen to be in the area. They have the combo which is a hot dog sliced on a hamburger. It tastes better than it sounds. Chili cheese fries were solid too. +1 for not upcharging me on ranch. Seating is outdoor and parking is not very easy but its workable. Service was great as well too. Closes early so plan accordingly. 5/5

Outdoor eating area

The combo hamburger hot dog sandwich is ok, but the chili fries were divine. I don't think I'll ever have fries like that again. The hot dog overpowers the beef patty, so I wish it was a double patty burger. The mayonnaise strangely works with the salty hot dog. The sandwich was not my favorite. The chili fries were a different story. I wish I had known I would have the best fries of my life today so I could've finished that first. The crisp was perfectly uniform for every fry, and it was flaky on the inside. The chili was ok, but I would've had a meal with only fries if I had known. Parking is street only I think, and luckily the machines were ripped out today. There's a small lot in the back, but I feel it's for employees. Outdoor dining only, and there were some flies interested in eating for free. Accepts credit cards

Hamburger with the works and Grilled Onions
Karen L.

Oh Marty's where have you been all my life? I've literally lived in LA my entire life and never stopped into Marty's before today. Of course, Sundays there's tons of street parking and no meters to pay. We were warmly greeted and placed our order at the window. We had the cheeseburger, hot dog, and hamburger + the 50/50-onion rings and fries. Service was quick and the food was amazing. We sat on the back patio under an umbrella. The burgers were perfectly cooked and messy-just the way I like 'em! The hot dog was perfect too. I had to fight my husband for the last onion ring-they were that good. Even Murphy the Doodle enjoyed half a French fry. We are definitely becoming regulars!!

Nostalgic hamburger & hot dog stand. Counter seats or patio out back. They do one thing and do it right

Hamburger with hot dog added.
Brian W.

Old and rustic, I get why they're a beloved neighborhood hamburger stand - which, generally speaking, are a dying breed these days. Menu is just innovative enough in the old school way - add a hot dog or pastrami to your burger, get a pile of fries, maybe a second patty if you're particularly hungry. Can't say it's fancy or even particularly memorable, but it's a solid meal. Add in a super friendly staff and juuuust a bit of counter seating, all outdoor, for vibes, and something about it hits right, at least for a certain subset of customers; it's very obvious they have regulars as I was eating my meal.

chili cheese fries on the back patio

This is one of those spots I always recommend when friends or family are visiting from out of town and want a quick, classic LA bite. It's simple, nostalgic, and never lets me down. Roses:Never disappoints- my go to order is chili cheese fries with a Coke (elite combo)The staff is super friendly and somehow always remembers my orderLove the back patio seating when the weather's nice Thorns:I wish they were open later for dinner or late-night cravings, or had a delivery option(Although... my waistline is probably grateful they don't ) Overall, if you're looking for the perfect casual stop that hits every time, Marty's is for you!

Marty's Hamburger Stand never disappoints. The bacon cheeseburger is always perfect, and the chili cheese fries hit every single time. Everything comes out hot, flavorful, and exactly the way you want it. The cooks are always super friendly too, which makes the whole experience even better. This spot is a true classic and always worth the stop!

What I Ordered: -The Combo with Chili and Cheese -Chili Cheese Fries Marty's is an institution in West LA. They're famous for the combo, which is a burger and hot dog combined in one bun. I had The Combo last time, and it was pretty good. I felt like it was a bit too much meat, and I'm a carnivore through and through. This time, I decided to give it another try, but with chili instead, and I loved it! The chili is a bit salty here, but it's pretty good chili; I'm not gonna lie. I love The Hat, and that's my go-to spot in SGV, as I live in that area. The chili at The Hat is terrible. The chili at Marty's is pretty good. I also got an order of chili cheese fries for my son, but he didn't want them. Get inside Daddy's belly! I didn't have it until a few hours later, but it was still delicious. I love taking those spicy peppers and squeezing all those spicy juices on top of the chili cheese fries, and I add some ketchup as well, and I'm in Heaven. I wish Marty's was open earlier and closed later. The guy there is telling me that they got a banging breakfast burrito, but they open a little too late for me to get breakfast before work. Closing at 4 pm on the weekend is pretty ludicrous, I'm not going to lie. At least close at 6 or 7 pm, but 4 pm before dinner time makes literally no sense to me. I guess they do enough business in the day.

Still not brave enough to even try the combo (hamburger and hot dog together) , but the burger was good enough and hit the spot.

When…read morewe first started going it was never crowded but as the years have passed the line kept getting longer and longer. We started going with a backup plan in case the line was too long. When we stopped by on Saturday evening there was no line so we quickly stopped and found Parking right out front. By the time we ate and left there was a line so we made good timing. We ordered the cheeseburger (burger has a link and bacon) we had on our first date, except we shared it. Before we weee big back and would eat the whole burger - those were the days. The burger was still good and seems to not have changed at all. We also had fries, onion rings and shared a spicy hot link pastrami dog. There's no inside seating but plenty of seating on the patio. We have so many memories here and not a lot has changed. We still recognize some of the employees from back in the day still working there, still able to take your order without writing it down and getting it right and still friendly.

Always an excellent establishment to visit!…read more Fantastic service and a variety of choices for vegan/vegetarian eaters.

The hot dogs were coated with a light layer of sugar, giving them a crunchy exterior while staying soft and moist inside. The melted mozzarella cheese made them even better. The smoothie drinks tasted fresh, and I was told they use fresh fruits in their beverages. Customer service was excellent--the staff was friendly and helpful throughout our visit. The only downside was the parking situation. Valet parking is required, and you have to pay, which can be a bit inconvenient. Other than that, we had a great experience and would definitely come back.

I got the mixed cheese/hot dog which was fresh and satisfying to eat. I do wish that the cheese and hot dog could be eaten at the same time rather than the top half being cheese and bottom half being hot dog but I believe thats how all korean hot dogs are made. I got it with sugar on top because I love a sweet and salty combo but it had a bit too much sugar, even for me. I'd ask to go light sugar. Also had a strawberry yogurt smoothie which was delicious, definitely the highlight. However, I was charged for a large smoothie which I didn't ask for which was a bit frustrating.

Many come with the intention of getting a TJ Dog, many get talked into it by those selling it, and many succumbed to the munchies. No matter the reason, they're more tasty than they smell (if that's possible). Many have some hot dogs in all stages of their cook state (cooked enough, some char, lots of char, almost overcooked). A lot of the hot dog vendors have their PayPal/Venmo QR codes taped onto their cart. You can't tell the difference between the TJ dogs sold here and the ones in Tijuana. I've personally never gotten sick after eating these. Service is quick, there may be a bit of a language barrier, but not enough to prevent your purchase of a hot tasty TJ dog.

They're particularly amazing if the vendor is set up on a corner, it should be at least midnight, and you should be a couple of sheets to the wind. I don't know if it's the car exhaust marinade or the lard cooking ingredients, but those damn Dirty Dogs are life-changingly good! (Make sure you get it with all the fixings... Calories don't count after midnight.) Whether it's outside the clubs in Hollywood, or you're celebrating the Lakers win outside the Staples Center, those trusty carts are a godsend to LA food lovers like me! Now to find those bad boys, if you're good, you can locate a stand by scouring the city for the queue on corner - the clear indicator of the food stand. But if you're freaking awesome (like my fatty friend, Ellen Sue C.), you can simply stick your head out the car window and sniff the nighttime air to find them. Either way, bacon-wrapped hot dogs are staple in the culture of LA. It's what makes us so damn awesome! NOTE: It has been tough finding these jewels lately, and I discovered on my last lucky adventure that they are required to have permits now, and that many have acquired trucks instead of carts!
