    The tuna melt was good but not what I expected. Filled with chunky, savory tuna, zesty seasoning and quality cheese. However, sandwich was lacking in presentation and the bread was soggy and not fully toasted like I saw from other tuna melt photos from the same restaurant. It also wasn't cut in half which made it hefty on top of the not so toasted bread. Regardless, the ingredients were tasty, fresh and plentiful. I think with a more well toasted bread and melted cheese this could rival diners like Jim's Burger for tuna melt. Old school arcade Mortal Kombat and NBA Jam are in the lobby. Very cool. The vanilla milkshake was incredible and was a meal unto itself. Service was great. $45 after tip for fries, tuna melt, shake and the founder to go...might go back eventually but not anytime soon. Tuna melt that I got was a 7 out of 10.

    Burgers are made fresh and the wait wasn't too long. Ingredients blend well and the burger is soft, kinda melts in your mouth. Location is in the plaza next to the AMC. Menu is straightforward and there is plenty of parking available.

    Came here with my little brother & pup after a day at Rosie's dog beach and was not disappointed! The restaurant is very open with plenty of seating both inside and outside. They have 2 video game machines and a Photo Booth as well! The inside was very clean and spacious. The outdoor seating was also very clean and spacious with an awning to provide shade. I loved that they had hooks at the bar stool area to place your purses/bags as well! More places need to have these! The service was great, the man that helped us at the counter was super friendly! The burgers themselves were really tasty! My little brother is very picky & he DEVOURED his whole burger! I got the chili cheese burger & was surprised to taste that the chili had a little bit of spice to it! Not burn your mouth or hurt you spicy, just a tiny little kick to add to its flavor. Both the fries and tots were super crispy and flavorful as well. The biggest plus for me is they are dog friendly! We had a great meal here, will definitely be back next time we're in the area!

    Grilled Cheese, Juicy James burger, Chili cheese fries, duck fat fries- yum!

    Proudly Serving (burgers) interestingly replaced two other burger establishments (Beasties and Eat Fantastic). I haven't tried Beasties or Eat Fantastic yet, but I really liked the Juicy James burger ($14), which comes with two smash patties, cheese, lettuce, tomato, bacon, special sauce on a sesame bun. I asked for pickled jalapeños for an extra .50 cents and swapped out one of the beef patties with the black bean patty. This burger was legit! Loved the toasted sesame bun, crispy bacon, hearty beef and bean patties. The vegetables were fresh and the special sauce made the burger extra juicy. I also got the fries, which is tossed in duck fat for $5. Not super crispy, but they are thick cut, which I liked. They have craft beer, wine and soft drinks. My friends and I shared a bottle of sparkling rosé. Ashley took our order and everything came out quickly! Plenty of tables inside and outside. They even have Pac Man, Mortal Kombat and a photo booth for a little entertainment! Plenty of parking in the lot. Hope they last longer than the other businesses did!

    Fries, tots, PS burger, and a collaboration burger (no longer available)

    They're not your average smash burger joint. They consistently achieve a crust in their burgers that is divine. I thought it an anomaly because it was so nice the first time but I am so wrong. Three visits and three solid experiences. They have mastered the Maillard reaction on their products. Fries and tots are cooked in duck fat. If you've never had it, you're missing out. No gamey taste, just an umami explosion. Their ranch is definitely made in house. Thick, boldly flavored, and will make you reevaluate your ranch experiences. And they're super friendly, like Disneyland friendly y'all. Plus, it's easy to order to go and take it to the movies with you!

    PS burger and fries

    Easy eats burgers and amazing fries. Went for a quick work lunch. Plenty of parking in the plaza. There's a few different burgers (including a Filipino burger) but opted for the PS burger and some fries. Food came out pretty quickly. Burger was spot on - cooked well and not super greasy considering it's a fast food place. Best part was the fries though - I'm guessing it's the duck fat but I ran through those so quick. Would come back - especially for the fries.

    A very good smash burger. The man and I had the PJ, which was a double patty with cheese and grilled onions, pickles and special sauce. I did feel like there was too much sauce, and I enjoy a generous amount of sauce with my burgers. But I felt like this sauce over powered the taste of the patty and cheese. Still a decent burger. The potato buns held everything together. My kiddos shared the Founder which has lettuce, ketchup, mustard and pickles. A classic - they enjoyed. And done miss out on the fries! I wished it came with more! It was the perfect kind of thick and crispy to a fry. Great quick meal before catching a movie or after.

    ​Finally made it to the new Proudly Serving location in the LBC, and it definitely lives up to the hype. This spot has that perfect local energy we love in Belmont Shore. ​The orange-clad interior is bright, clean, and high-energy--perfect for a quality, casual bite. It's got a modern, inviting atmosphere that makes you want to hang out. ​PS Burger: A very solid, well-executed burger. It's a great example of a classic burger done right. ​Chili Cheese Fries: These were the absolute star of the show. The chili has a phenomenal kick of spice that I wasn't expecting but absolutely loved. It's not just "good"--it's a standout dish.

    Double patty but small

    Went here prior to watching a movie. First of all, the cashier and the servers were really nice people! Friendly, professional and outgoing. Lets get to the nitty gritty with honest feedback. Only from my observation and experience. Ordered a PS burger and Chicken Sandwhich Burger. The PS burger was $11. It was made sloppy, the bun itself was not even aligned correctly. It was alittle on the salty side for me. Paid an extra 50cents for Jalapeños.. only 3 or 4 was added. The chicken Sandwhich was better then my PS burger which was alittle bit more in price compared to my PS burger. I believe the burgers are overpriced. They are actually pretty small. On the positive note, the wine serving was good. So dont be expecting a large burger. If you have money to spend to purchase a burger and still feeling hungry afterwards, this place might do it for you. The ambiance is that of an old-school burger joint but in Orange. Inside seating is tight but cozy. Has old school video games and a photo booth for some entertainment. I am having mixed feelings. In my honest opinion, the taste was just ok for me. I will try again though. Not knocking entirely, has good energy and the potential to be successful. They also play good music. Kudos to the cashier and the staff working the front desk. They were really cool peeps.

    Very delicious burgers! Burgers tasted great and were pretty big. They have big fries and were cooked perfectly. Service was fast and everyone was very nice. The place looks nice and they even have a Photo Booth a Pac-Man! The only down side was that there were a few fruit flies near the soda machine. Overall, 8/10.

    Fries are 10/10!!!
    Casey S.

    Proudly Serving absolutely lives up to its name. From start to finish, the experience was seamless, professional, and genuinely impressive. The team goes above and beyond to make sure every detail is handled with care, and you can tell they truly take pride in what they do. And the food... next level. The fries are perfectly crispy, golden, and addictive in the best way. The burger is a straight 10/10, especially with pickles added... that extra crunch and flavor takes it over the top. Every bite was dialed in and so satisfying. Highly recommend to anyone looking for top-tier service and seriously good food. Shoutout to my hubby for introducing me to this new hidden gem & surprising me with the best lunch date ever!

    Heard about this place on instagram...... but we were heading to the movies. After the movies we stopped here for dinner. It's a smash burger concept known for its high-quality, ingredients. My favorite food are burgers and in my opinion it lack flavor. Glad we came in, service was good, ambience was a bit small. (Tight seating) but the place is small. Anyway glad we stopped by.

    A hearty sized burger joint located at the Marina Pacifia plaza. Ample seating for the dine in people, open aired patio with beach vibes to enjoy your burger. The staff is friendly and fast with their services. I ordered the PS Burger double patty with cheese, griddled onions, pickles and special sauce, which was really good.

The bikini bar theme adds to the fun without ever feeling over the top - the bartenders are professional, friendly, and genuinely know how to make people feel at home. It's exactly the kind of local spot that keeps you coming back! A huge shout-out to Sheila, who took care of us for two days in a row. She is an absolute rockstar behind the bar. She was incredibly gracious, hilarious, attentive, and somehow always knew when we needed another drink before we even had to ask. She has that perfect personality for bartending - fun, engaging, and just the right amount of playful flirting that makes everyone smile while still making you feel like you're hanging out with an old friend. The drinks were cold, the service was fast, the conversations were great, and the overall vibe was exactly what you'd hope for from a classic neighborhood sports bar. Whether you're stopping in to watch a game, shoot some pool, listen to music, or just unwind after work, The Sportsman's delivers. It's rare these days to find a place where the service stands out as much as the atmosphere, but Sheila and the rest of the staff absolutely made our visit memorable. We'll definitely be back, and hopefully we'll be lucky enough to catch Sheila behind the bar again. If you're anywhere near Los Alamitos and haven't been to The Sportsman's yet, you're missing out. Five off the back somewhere like what's the frame-shot stars isn't enough!

If you don't like wings, it's because everywhere else makes them soft and slimy. I've tried a dozen other places looking for wings like Griffins has and still haven't found any. I think they bake them first, then fry them. Result is this wonderful crisp texture, fantastic buffalo flavor, and just a 10/10 experience. I'm now an official wing guy, I'll pound like 20 wings in a sitting at griffins on a Saturday night. They have TV's everywhere with all the sports playing on them. I'm not a sports guy, I usually come for the music and the excellent wings, but man I couldn't imagine a better place to have some beer and some wings and watch a jiu jitsu match or a baseball game if that's what you're into. The staff is phenomenal too, love this place, LOVE their wings, look forward to coming here every couple weeks

    I visited this establishment for evening rations after church on Sunday. My experience was…read more.. complicated. I ordered the burger and fries. I was going to order Pepsi as that was listed on the menu but was told that Coke was available instead. Not good so I decided to settle for "wooder" to drink. I am dinging this establishment one point due to not having an item listed on the menu. Either have Pepsi available or else update your menus please. The cheeseburger and the fries were quite good. I asked that there be no pickles, onions, lettuce and tomatoes and that request was honoured... good. I did ask for ketchup and mustard on the side and that was eventually brought though I had to ask for mustard a second time. A side of Mayonnaise that I did not ask for was also brought and when I got the bill I noticed that this establishment wanted to charge me 50 cents for the side I did not ask for. I made an issue of it and was refunded the 50 cents in the form of two quarters. Men's washroom was clean and paper towels were available... good. After I paid and left the establishment I noticed a discrepancy between the menu price of 14$ for the burger and the price I was charged which was 15$. I am dinging this establishment one point for that discrepancy. I have a bone to pick with the personal appearance of the employees at this establishment. I noticed that at least three guys working at this establishment failed to tuck their shirts in. I consider that to be very unprofessional. I am dinging this establishment one point for not requiring the employees to tuck their shirts in. On a more positive note, I thought the service was very good in that an employee checked up on me frequently and kept my "wooder" topped up. So I am adding a point back for the superior service. If I was to assign a letter grade as is done in school this establishment would be in there solid with a C.
