Loooovvveee!!!! This place is so good. The fries are the best thing everr! Tried the fried mushrooms, they were good, the burgers are great and they have some cool different creations. Had the Philly cheesesteak- it was good too. Can't wait to try more. Call in order otherwise takes about 10-15min while they make it. read more

Roman's Kitchen - Burgers Near Me - Arcata, California

Awesome, tender Smoked Tri Tip Philly Cheesesteak. Peppers and onions perfectly crisp tender. Hubby had a "very good" burger. This is saying a lot for a guy who is a really tough critic. We would go back to try more on the great menu if we travel this way again. read more

Wow! This place has the best fries. Really good burgers, sandwiches, and sides. Good service, I'll defiantly go back.

Ironically enough, the "kitchen" here is mobile, in the form of a food truck. That being said, this particular kitchen pumps out amazing food that you really should try. The fare is mostly sandwiches and burgers, so it's easy to make use of the picnic tables outside, or to take it with you. Fries available, go garlic. read more

Roman's Kitchen - Burgers Near Me - Arcata, California

Simply one of the best burgers I've ever tasted!!! Returning from a mission trip in Smith River back to the Bay, our church group loves to explore local food when possible. And we definitely found the right spot! Roman's Kitchen is an outdoor setting, that went above and beyond on quality and flavor. The burgers and fries were truly superb and worth stopping by to try! The owner, Andres and his family were gracious, super friendly, and dedicated to feeding the soul! Will definitely return when up in Arcata! read more

Love love love this place. For the longest time, my boyfriend and I kind of just stuck to getting their burgers (and they're all delicious). But one day, my boyfriend got their pulled pork sandwich and oh my god it was delicious. Sorry, Guy Fieri, but Cafe Nooner isn't the best place to get pulled pork sandwiches. Don't get me wrong, they have good sandwiches there...but Roman's is better. read more

One of the best veggie burgers I've had in Arcata... I doused it with extra BBQ and Ranch because it makes it healthier, and it made it even better! I'll definitely be back here again and again until I'm sick of it and hate my life. read more

Great food everything on the menu is made fresh to order so call ahead and have yours ready romans is our go to when we eat out the French fries are fabulous and the bacon on point read more

Ordered well done burger and it was really pink! Wanted avocado got guacamole (no it's not the same) next time I send my husband to get food we'll check it but seems like they were in a rush to shut down for day... read more

Roman's Kitchen - Burgers Near Me - Arcata, California

Dang good burger! My husband and I stopped in. I got the burger with barbecue sauce and I got the onion rings. Holy moley! The burger was the bomb. Quite flavorful. I was nervous the burger would be sloppy with sauce poured on. But it was not! Very flavorful and seemed to be cooked with sauce on it. The onion rings were above par. Definitely. On the pricey side, but you definitely pay for what you get, awesome food. Plus the chairs outside are comfortable for a folding chair! Well done Romans. Well done. read more

Fantastic burgers and sandwiches, I'm very partial to the chicken tenders basket. And their garlic fries are to die for, probably the best fries I've ever had. Definitely a regular spot for me. read more

Who would have thought the best burgers and fries for the money in Humboldt would come out of a food truck. The patties are a little on the thin side, but the burger packs so much flavor that you hardly even notice. Also, I love their chili cheese fries and turkey pesto. The service is always friendly, but a tad on the slow side. But, after taking a bite, it's apparent that every second of the wait was going into making the simple food extraordinary. Pro Tip: They have a loyalty program. Buy 10 sammies, get 1 free. read more

Friendly service and the food was ready fairly soon after ordering. I would eat here again.

We go just for the fries! They are SO good! We grab a basket to go every time we're in Arcata.

So so good! Garlic fries are a must. My personal favorite is there bacon Sriracha burger the bacon and beef is good quality and cooked perfectly. The spicy sauce is spectacular. read more

Best place in Humboldt. The food is always fresh. Fries are always crispy the way I like it. Highly recommend the spicy Crispy chicken sandwich read more

I have had the Philly melt, hamburger and the fries. I enjoyed everything so far but I must say the Philly was my favorite with the perfect blend of beef, peppers and onions then smothered in cheese the toasted bun took it over the top sooo yummy read more

Food truck, mostly burgers. Very good. Awesome customer service. I only gave 4 stars because I think people need to realize one it's pricey, two it's mostly burgers and fries, onion rings. All fast food. The options were limited in the fast food verse other options. Very good for what they had but it was still "fast food" style. read more

Roman's Kitchen - $32 dollar meal. Pricey in my opinion for what you get. Food was good, options limited. Great customer service. Nice and clean picnic area. - Burgers Near Me - Arcata, California

Good food for good prices. Great menu selection available. I really like their French Dip sandwiches and enjoy kids meals since I have a small appetite. read more

Favorite place in Arcata to get lunch! One of the few places I've been more than 10x and never once had a misorder or bad meal. Always hungry for more! Try the chili cheese fries. And don't forgot to get extra onions! read more

Best burgers and fries in arcata. Only shitty thing about this place is that they close wayyyy too early.

Some of the best burgers in town, but all their offerings are made with a dedication to serving great food. The garlic fries are awesome, and the Milanesa torta is simply amazing. The prices might seem to be more fitting for a restaurant, but they do consistently serve restaurant quality food. Once in awhile they pack up and head out to a festival or gathering, which is why I think they operate from a truck. There are a couple tables provided, including a large one with a picnic tent over it. Highly recommended. read more

Consistent and tasty pub style food in a food truck! Generous portions, which I always love. Staff is really nice and it's a great location right next to Cal Poly Humboldt. Good business to support!! read more

This. Place. Is. Bomb. Best burger I've ever had, hands down. I got the bacon cheddar burger with avocado added, and it was perfect! Their fries are crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. My daughter got the kid's size chicken strips and loved them. Their ranch is the best ranch I've had in ages. Everything is delicious! Plus their super friendly, the wait isn't terribly long, and even if it was? It'd be worth it for such an amazing burger! Btw it is a food truck, so if you're looking for indoor seating, it shall not be there read more

I've learned to never underestimate food trucks, and Roman's is the kind of truck that proves why--it's an upscale burger joint on wheels in a community center parking lot. Plus, hey, food trucks are ideal for the COVID era. The burgers are on the pricer side, and you get what you pay for--big, decadent, delicious things in some colorful remixes. "Just a cheeseburger" is not what you're here for. I don't think I've ever had battered fries before, but I was pleasantly surprised--delicious and extremely crispy. Sweet potato fries are also delicious. The only non-burger thing I tried was the pulled pork sandwich, which I'd qualify as very good but not the best I've ever had. The cole slaw, a favorite of mine, was similar--quite good, not quite fantastic. You should go in knowing what you're in for, though--these are big, greasy, let's-live-it-up burgers, not something that you'd want to eat every day. My wife has a lower "heavy American food" tolerance than I do, and this place--particularly the fries--push her limits. This place is competing with Stars a few blocks away, which is my favorite local burger place, so by way of direct comparison, Roman's burgers are bigger, flashier, more "creative", and heavier. The fries, likewise, are crispier and more strongly flavored, but also greasier and heavier. It comes mostly down to a matter of taste--if you want a simple, relatively classic burger and fries with absolutely everything done right, that's also a reasonable size, Stars can't be beat. If you want a piled-high monster with some more exotic flavor options, hit up Roman's. There's some tables and chairs set up nearby to eat onsite if you'd like, but it's not really the nicest place to eat so the only real advantage is not wasting the take-out box. Personally if I wanted to eat nearby I'd walk to the small park a block up the street, or better yet the grassy area and nice trees right across 11th, and eat there. read more

As a previous resident of Arcata while attending HSU back in the day, it's always fun to revisit some of our old favorite eating haunts, and sad to see which ones are no longer in business. But on this most recent return visit, we were delighted to find what we hope will become one of our new favorites on our subsequent return travels. Roman's Kitchen, like the famous shrimp trucks on Maui or those culinary purveyors at the Off-the-Grid events in more urban areas serves up their goodness from a truck in a parking lot. Given that it's right next door to a medical marijuana dispensary, it's in the perfect location to be a first-class burger munchie fix. We called in a to go order from the beach for five burgers, each with a special request. 15 minutes later we picked them up, and all were done perfectly and got raves from teenagers and adults alike. We'll definitely recommend and return the next time we're in town. read more

Hawaiian burger- Humboldt's finest grass fed beef with Canadian bacon and grill seared pineapple rings is an ungodly meat-juice- running-down-your-hands-delight! Awesome, friendly servers and grillmasters run this homegrown gem of a food truck. The fries are a must! Extra crispy and flavorful dipping sauces are an unnecessary embellishment. Total must on a road trip! read more

Very good food truck located in a convenient location. The chicken sandwich is amazing and the beer battered french fries are delicious. Outside seating is nice. 5 stars for sure. read more

What food trucks are all about. Maybe the best pulled pork sandwich ever. Quality help on the other side of the window.

I got the mushroom provolone burger which was really juicy and yummy! The fries could use a lot of improvement though, crunchy and over salted. read more

Roman's never disappoints. We are always satisfied when eating here. My daughter loves their fries they are one of a kind. We try to go here as much as possible. They've modified our order to make it non-dairy/vegan upon request. Our entire family (vegan and non-vegans alike) absolutely loves Roman's. read more

Tasty veggie burgers!!! I recommend this place for vegetarians. The spicy mayo is very good.

This food truck has the best carne asada fries! It's a weekly special so don't miss out!

Best chili cheese fries in existence. Seriously, they are to die for. A little on the pricey side but so, SO worth it!

We went here after a disappointing experience with another food truck and it was the right choice! The food was incredible, prepared quickly, and the service was amazingly friendly! Definitely check it out if you're in town and be sure to try the Western Burger! read more

I always get the turkey sandwich hot & it is delicious every time. Romans is my favorite sandwich spot in the area. It's so good , I recommend trying it at least once. read more

We were traveling through the area and I found them on Yelp. I looked over their menu and photos and compared them to other local burger restaurants in the area. The food looked just like the pictures! The staff was pleasant and the food was absolutely AMAZING! Their food was better than any chain restaurants that I have been to like Apple Bees, Chili's, etc. There should have been a huge line of people wrapping around the side walk on the corner of where the food truck is located. A few people were ordering for the second time today.... Don't hesitate going as you wont be disappointed!!! read more

Great fed beef patties, lightly grilled onions and toasted buns. Top notch all around

honestly, everything tasted amazing but our fries were cold and our burgers were lukewarm at best... we called in at 6:41 with our order, they told us to come in 20 minutes, and we arrived at 7:00. it was a bit disappointing to arrive to pickup our food at our designated time, only to have it be cold... we ordered the western burger, the teriyaki burger, and a half order of fries. the flavor of both burgers were great and the fries were crispy, despite being cold. i know that this meal would've been 4, if not 5 stars, had our food been at least warm. read more

I don't really understand the current 5 star rating of this place. The service was average, the food was average, the price was good. But that's about all I can say for this place. We had the Chicken Ranch Melt Sandwich and the Cheese fries with Bacon. Nothing stood out as being extraordinary. Price was around $18. Wait time was 12-15 minutes. read more
