Papa Fries
Jared A.

I'll start by saying don't sleep on this place just because it's connected to the gas station. The food is definitely worth stopping through. They are always patient and helpful anytime I go. I ordered a double smash burger and added bacon.. soooo good. The only issue I have is the lettuce can b a lil soggy but it doesn't take away from the deliciousness of the burger. And the fries are always crispy and salted just right. I got the papa fries which is like their version of animal fries and they were delicious as well... the prices are way too high but it's good food.

My favorite local spot to treat myself - the fire fries are my order every time! So filling, generous portions, and tastes fresh! Friendly staff as well!

The meat is soooo sooo good!!!!! Obsessed with the fries as well. Ordered it to go and although we less than 10 mins away the bread did get pretty soggy, just wished the buns were a bit thicker. Definitely a must try. In n out who?

Plastic lid. No way to put straw in. It is overfilled. So when you open the lid, it SPILLS OVER AND MAKES A MESS.

Plastic lid. No way to put straw in. It is overfilled. So when you open the lid, it SPILLS OVER AND MAKES A MESS. Called them and suggest them that they should change it and they just make up a bs "safety" excuse for transport. Other restaurants were able to do so with normal lids, but okay, I guess they just don't realize those other kinds of lids existed. Their suggestion? Freeze it! I'm sorry, did I order ice cream? No. I wanted a milkshake. And then what? Wait for it to melt so it becomes a shake again and then spill over and make a mess? I wanted to eat my meal and have the shake, why would I wait for it to solidify? Ridiculous. As for the burger and fries. Nothing special.

Such a delicious smash burger. Flavor and freshness were top notch. Self ordering kiosk as available as well as a cashier. The establishment was super clean and convenient. Highly recommend

Single Smash Burger

Counted exactly 3 cars in front of me in drive thru and was in line for 50 minutes for two below average not smashed burgers and fries. As you can clearly see in the picture my patty was broken apart and crumbled.... The burgers were so incredibly bland yet tasted like soap. It was like eating cardboard with dish soap. I wouldn't even feed this to my dog.

This is my 7th time eating here, and it seems like the recipe for the spicy sauce changed. Today's batch was next-level felt like it came straight from hell!

Papa Smash seriously delivers on all fronts. The moment I walked in, I was greeted with smiles and great energy. The staff here are amazing super friendly, quick, and genuinely care about your experience. It's the kind of service that makes you want to come back before you even finish your meal. Now for the real star: the Wagyu burger. Hands down one of the best I've ever had. The meat is incredibly tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. You can taste the quality in every bite. They don't overdo it either the seasoning and toppings are perfectly balanced to let that premium Wagyu shine. Papa Smash is one of those places where the food and service go hand-in-hand to create something special. If you haven't tried their Wagyu burger yet, you're seriously missing out. Highly recommend!

While I was pumping gas I saw that this restaurant was connected to the convenient store and they had a drive through so I decided to check it out. I'm so glad I did because it was delicious. I waited the hour drive when I got home to eat it, but even then it was still so good. Their house sauce definitely added to the flavor of the burger. The main thing that stood out was their branding. As a designer, I appreciate when businesses use a designer to brand their business.

Clean, friendly, fast...delicious! We tried it for the first time. Kind of a mix between in-n-out and five guys.

Food missed the mark. Expensive so was hoping food would be worth it. Unfortunately that wasn't true. Lacked flavor and was sloppy.

Savage Chef Bar & Grill - The meat was cooked/seasoned perfectly. The flight of sauces made it seem like I was eating 4 different steaks.

Recommended to make reservations ahead of time... and there's a reason why. This place is…read moreabsolutely off the hook. The chef personally comes out to greet you, brings out dishes himself, and explains everything with so much passion and love... and you can truly taste it in the food. Everything we had was delicious and cooked perfectly. The vibe is amazing, the music is great, and the whole atmosphere just feels cool and welcoming. We ordered the beef carpaccio and WOW... packed with flavor. Soooo good. The steak was perfectly done, the truffle mac and cheese was incredible, and the white chocolate dessert completely hit the spot. You can tell the chef genuinely takes pride in his work and cares about the experience he gives his guests. We will definitely be back. Honestly, one of the best places in Menifee - maybe even the best around here if you ask me.

Oh my gosh was this place great! Super packed and busy make sure to make a reservation! We booked a…read morelast minute reservation for dinner and they were able to get us in, as it seemed like the nicest restaurant in the proximity to our Airbnb. Service was phenomenal the entire time they even gave us a private room unknowingly that we were there celebrating my bachelorette party. We were super happy, the area was cozy and private, perfect for our small group. They offer a bunch of different options on espresso martinis, you can custom different liquors and flavors. We all tried different combinations and they were all wonderful. Onto the food, we were blown away! Couldn't believe that finding this place last minute gave us such an incredible experience. The food was top notch and delicious. The Mac and cheese was soooo creamy and flavorful. The steak was cooked perfect and they have several dipping sauces to choose from. The salmon was a hit and the risotto went really well with it. I wouldn't be surprised if this place had a Michelin star, it was THAT GOOD. We were frequently checked up on and had a wonderful last night experience on our vacation. This is the kinda spot that looks like a hole in the wall in a strip mall but it's a hidden gem!!
