    Chorizo breakfast burrito.
    Candy B.

    They have the best breakfast burritos. They are so big and filling. Highly recommend. They are now serving them until 1:00pm.

    I feel like I just got robbed of my $14, i'm not sure why anyone likes this mediocre cold breakfast burrito, must be fat people only, the thing was just full of hashbrowns and cheese, barely any egg & two pieces of bacon no flavor you need the green sauce just to give it some flavor, this is a garbage burrito for the price you pay, y'all need to hit up Pepe's to get a better breakfast burrito.

    Most people will tell you that they have a spot that has the best breakfast burritos. Well, the search is over my friends. This is thee elite burrito for your 6 am commute. The fried zucchini is arguably the best side I've ever had at any eatery. That old school feel of a diner style spot where the food and the service is spot on, then you won't be disappointed. Got to TROYs, go Tonight! Parking situation can be tricky since it's limited and down a slope, so park on the street and walk :) P.S. the carne asada tacos are ridunculous.

    I want to give 4 stars so bad. I'm kind of a breakfast burrito snob, and I have been on the quest for the best one in southern CA. Basically if there is a breakfast burrito on the menu, I'm getting it. I think I saw this place on a tik tok, so I had to try it. This is my second visit. I wanted to love this burrito, and it has sooo much potential! Is it the "best breakfast burrito" as their sign says? Not for me, but still pretty good. The good: very good ratio of ingredients. A lot of places stuff them with potatoes and make them hash brown heavy, they don't. The tortilla is awesome. The amount of cheese was perfect, and the salsa verde was also very good. Not so good: Everything was overcooked. The eggs were cooked to death, and the sausage seemed like it was from the day before and microwaved. The cheese never melted the whole time I ate my burrito. In my opinion (and I'll make you the best breakfast burrito you've ever had) you have to leave the eggs a little loose (over medium is even better, but not many willing to take that on) so that it's not so dry. There needs to be some gooey or greasy! All in all the burrito was a 7/10, and service was good. I'll be back, but I want to try a few more joints first. Maybe that will change my opinion.

    This is more of a wrapped quesadilla- A very sad burrito.

    Troy's used to be my go-to spot for breakfast burritos, and I always thought they served a decent-sized burrito. It's been about six months since my last visit since it's not on my usual route, but today I decided to stop by on my way to work. To my surprise, the price for a burrito was over $13 pretty shocking for a breakfast burrito. On top of that, the quality just wasn't there. The cheese completely overpowered everything, with barely any meat or egg inside. Honestly, it felt more like a quesadilla than a burrito. The service was just ehh, nothing to talk about. Also, be careful when leaving the parking lot, cars parked along the street block your view, making it tricky and a bit unsafe to pull out. Overall, very disappointing, and unfortunately, this will likely be my last visit.

Initially, I walked…read moreinto the establishment thinking it was going to be another "fast food burger joint" but walked out craving another burger. The ambiance is minimalistic with a few tables along the wall and a long window table for solo eaters. However, the owner/cook are super friendly and accommodating. I ordered the signature and the double burger meal (w/ loaded fries). First off, the loaded fries is one of the best. It doesn't aesthetically look "all that," but it just HITS. The jalapeños and grilled onions balance out the cheese and bacon. As for the signature burger, the crispy cheese was a great complement to the perfectly seasoned patties. The texture of the cheese was just right: a nice balance of almost crispy but also gooey with a small cheese pull. Perfection. I haven't had a good smash burger in OC for a while, so this was a pleasant surprise. The establishment is located within a plaza, so parking can get a bit difficult when busy, but I came in on a Sunday afternoon and there were plenty of spaces available. I will definitely be back. A++!

    After seeing positive reviews on Yelp, I decided to try Smashburger on Chapman Ave. Unfortunately,…read moremy experience was quite different from my expectations. I ordered their Signature Smash Burger meal, hoping it would showcase what the restaurant is known for. However, the burger did not resemble the menu photos. As shown in the attached pictures, the patties were very thin, overcooked, burnt, and dry. The burger lacked flavor and was far from the satisfying burger Smashburger advertises. The bun was also noticeably crushed and flattened, giving a careless presentation. While appearance isn't everything, it didn't help when the taste was equally disappointing. The overall dining experience was not much better. Only two of us dined in, with no other customers inside. Although several to-go orders were being prepared, our food still took longer than expected. The atmosphere was less enjoyable than I had hoped. Staff members were quite loud in the kitchen, and an employee sat next to our table, speaking loudly on a phone call for an extended period, making it hard to enjoy the meal. I'm sharing this feedback hoping management will address these issues. The meal did not reflect the quality I expect from a restaurant that prides itself on its food. For the price, customers deserve food and service that match the advertised quality.

Mine came with sliced avocado (pretty much half of an avocado) which was ripe, smooth and creamy. It also came with crunchy onion strings and their special Topa Topa sauce and of course some kewpie mayo and shredded cabbage. The cabbage was super crunchy and fresh. The buns were super soft and toasted perfectly. The fries were alright. The Okonamiyaki style was unique and the toppings were tasty. My Dr Pepper was a little too sweet, maybe it was more syrup than carbonated water. Overall the burgers here were great! I also got an order for my boyfriend later that night. Ordering to go was super easy. My boyfriend devoured his Spicy Miso burger. Service here was great as well. Would come back for the burgers!

I wanted to share some comprehensive feedback regarding a recent experience, aiming to highlight both your successes and areas where further refinement could elevate the customer journey even further. First and foremost, I must commend your team for their exceptional warmth and hospitality. From my initial phone call to the moment I picked up my order, I felt genuinely welcomed and valued. This level of customer service, which often feels lacking in many establishments today, truly sets American Grub apart. It creates a welcoming atmosphere that significantly enhances the overall experience, and I sincerely hope this commitment to friendliness remains a cornerstone of your operation. However, I encountered a couple of points that, in my personal opinion, warrant consideration for improvement. Regarding the payment process, I felt a degree of apprehension about providing my credit card details over the phone. While I understand the operational need to secure orders and prevent potential losses, particularly for larger transactions, for a single item like my bacon cheeseburger, priced at $17.24 including tax, this practice felt somewhat disproportionate. I also noted the 99-cent fee for online payments, which, while minor, might deter some customers who are seeking convenience without additional charges. Perhaps exploring alternative secure payment links for phone orders or adjusting the fee structure for smaller transactions could enhance customer comfort and streamline the process. My primary concern, however, arose upon returning home. Despite ordering a bacon cheeseburger, I discovered the burger completely lacked bacon, as well as any form of sauce or mayonnaise. This oversight had a significant impact on the meal; the absence of these core components rendered the burger quite bland and far from the experience I had anticipated. When ordering a single item, the expectation for meticulous attention to detail is particularly high, as there are fewer variables. Consequently, the overall value of the meal, given the missing ingredients, was not quite met on this occasion. I did reach out to the owner privately via email to discuss these points, and I appreciate their responsiveness and transparency in addressing my feedback, particularly concerning the rationale behind the phone payment policy. It is reassuring to know that your business is open to customer input. My hope is that these observations can serve as constructive input, allowing American Grub to continue refining its excellent service and product quality. I remain a supporter of your local endeavor and look forward to seeing these aspects addressed. Thank you for reaching out.

Every word and insight you read is authentically mine, driven by my commitment to provide honest feedback.

Their smash burgers are cooked perfectly every time -- crispy edges, juicy center -- and the Hammer Sauce takes them to another level.

The restaurant was dark and stylish, and I immediately liked the vibe. Even though it was crowded for a Thursday night, we were seated within 15 minutes. We each picked a shareable dish to split. Predictably, my daughter chose the mac and cheese. I rolled my eyes -- it's so her -- but it turned out to be the best of the four. Maybe it was the velvety cheese sauce or the golden cracker crust that made it so irresistible, but that mac and cheese was, as she'd say, absolutely bussin'. The next standout was the maple-buttered Brussels sprouts, my man's pick. If all vegetables tasted this good, I'd eat them every day. Candied pecans, maple butter, blue cheese -- how could that not be amazing? Was it healthy? Sus, but definitely worth it. I picked the pig candy for the group, which was outrageously sweet and candy-like. Clearly, this wasn't healthy -- bacon, sugar, and rye whiskey caramel make a trifecta of indulgence. But it was so delicious, I couldn't complain. The sliders were the last shareable we tried. They were fine but didn't stand out -- the meat was a bit dry. I also ordered a cocktail (something pretty and fruity, though I can't remember the name). The bartender nailed it, delivering a delicious drink. My man enjoyed his Negroni. The service was great, and I loved the grassy area with fire pits for hanging out. Excellent place for our first night out in Irvine!
