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.

Main menu 11/25'

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.

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.

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.

I forgot there was a For the Win in the area but I knew we had to go here since I've been to the Valley spots. The burgers we ordered was made from order and the fries were deliciously crispy and hot. They also accommodated with my friend's request of less salt on the fries. I probably should have followed suit and requested for less because I think the salt was a bit much on the burger and fries, but I still enjoyed my meal. All of the condiments and napkins you need are on the side. I definitely would love some ranch though. There's restrooms available here too which is great. The inside is cozy and it feels like you're eating at a picnic with the large picnic tables. Parking lot is small but we were lucky to find a spot infront. Had a great rest period relaxing and eating our afternoon lunch! If you need a quick spot to order from and enjoy some flavorful smashburgers, this is the spot!

No biggie, annoying, but things happen, I've ordered here many times without a problem. I called the store and an AI bot answered, apologized for the mistake and forwarded my call to The Store which it promised would resolve the matter. After a few rings, my forwarded call went dead. I called back nine times and the very friendly bot ended each call by forwarding me back to the same number, which went dead after a few rings. After nine increasingly empathetic and comical bot promises to resolve the matter, I decided to email For the Win. This was getting under my skin, and not about the $7.00 missing fries, this was a matter of principle! After a day got the following very nice (generated?) response. I'm really sorry about the missing fries and the trouble you had trying to reach us by phone. I completely understand your frustration, and I apologize for the inconvenience. I'd be happy to issue a refund for the missing fries. Could you please provide the location you ordered from, along with the date and approximate time of your order, or the total amount paid, so I can locate it? I'd also like to offer you a $15 gift card as an apology for the overall experience. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and hope to make things right. Best, For The Win-- For The Win Support forthewinla.com support@forthewinla.com So i sent them the info they requested and i never heard a word back. No gift card, no fry refund as promised. I followed up three times via email over the last few days and not a peep. Ghosted. Done with For the Win. From this experience If u have trouble with an order, dont even think about them making it right.

This…read moreplace has amazing burgers when they actually follow the receipt and do what they're supposed to. However on more than one occasion they have failed to live up to that expectation. At first I thought it was a discrepancy on the sites I was using but their carelessness on their be half has continued to show. In my most recent experience it has led me to write this review. I came here on Sunday night after working a twelve hour day doing hair and ordered $63.94 worth of food. When I received my food I was given four burgers. I originally ordered 3. The young man at the counter was saying he didn't know why but I could have it and it was fine. After I received my food I went to the drink fountain which was completely overfilled and leaking on the floor as well as the drink counter space making the area look nasty and unkept. I notified the young black guy and he walked over and proceeded to clean it and I ordered my uber home. My uber was 37 dollars. When my uber driver asked me how I liked IRVS I ranted and raved with nothing but compliments expressing how pleasing their burgers are. When I arrive home I opened my food and my entire meal with the exception of one burger (which was messed up since they ran out of bacon) was wrong. Not to mention they upcharge for any little changes you make to your food so to get home and see my order was messed up had me extremely disappointed. When I went to call them nobody would pick up it's as though the phone was off the hook. Two people in my household said they'd make due with what they had and I'm sorry but my taste buds wanted my chili con carne ($4.55 up charge and my added grilled yellow peppers another upcharge) so I did uber back up there and at this point I am fuming. I asked for my money back and in an attempt to hurry up and get me out the facility I was given it back. However I also wanted my burger. I was still willing to pay however the Hispanic man with the stretchers in his ear thought it was cute to say I already gave you your money back and you didn't even bring all the food back. A part of me wanted to take the burgers and throw them at him but instead I looked laughed and said yeah I won't be ordering here anymore and proceeded to let the customers in line know they have a tendency of messing up orders and to be sure to double check their items. This location sucks as mentioned before they have messed up my order on a good amount of occasions and I just chunked it up to the fact that those times I was on a courier app but to have my food messed up and then they knew they messed up they tried to throw in a free burger to compensate is just trifling. I spent 70+ dollars just on ubering from there and back up there and they didn't even try to remake the burger is just crazy. I would've been okay even with a discount on making a new burger. Customer service is f***ing 0/10 . I should've known it was going to be a mess when they said they were out of bacon and when I looked at the disgusting soda machine. These fellas didn't care about customer retention or keeping loyal customers satisfied. Throw the whole crew away or at least get a better crew.

I think it was the Chinatown location that didn't work for them. However, the good news is that they do have three other locations and if you have never been, I suggest you check Kroft out if you love burgers, especially smashed. The other locations are in Long Beach, Anaheim, and Rancho Cucamonga. I wish them luck and I will definitely be stopping in their other locations if I am ever in the area.
