Well, I had to update my review on this place once again, especially after just recently stopping by to eat the other day before heading out to San Diego for an extravaganza of sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll. Well, maybe just rock 'n' rock and good food to yelp about. Yeah, I'm a geek like that! Lol! Jk! Needless to say, I had 'band camp' practice for my new Aerosmith tribute band down south and had to get on the road quickly, so I needed a quick bite that was good priced. That's where this little place came to the rescue. Thank you Twin Castle Drive-In!
Right before 4pm, Park and I stopped by to quickly order their Pastrami Burgers, which I might add are the best in probably a 10 mile radius, if not original in its own way.
Not only is this a nice juicy special Hamburger, but it has Pastrami on top. Wholly Jesus would reply, 'Amen!' So good! I'm telling you here. Get it! You won't regret it. For the light eaters, split it. Still good. Eventhough they have a couple seats outside, I always take my stuff to-go from their, hence their name 'Drive-In'.
While we waited for their awesome cook to grill it, he said stop by next door to pay, which I honestly did not realized it was their shop too.
We then proceeded next door and walked into an awesome little donut shop/coffee shop/boba shop/etc. that's apparently attached to this awesome little grill place. They make breakfast too. They basically do breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
We then paid and tried their Boba which is better than most I had in Burbank and we even tried their glazed donuts. Now wait for it............they're better than most traditional glazed donuts I had in a longtime. To top it all off, their customer service is top-notch with a great smile. I'm pretty sure we met Cecilia (please forgive me if I mixed up your name on yelp), who was such a nice kind soul, solid manger and/or owner of the place. She was very welcoming no doubt. I told her she totally sealed the deal for me to give them 5 stars on yelp. Quality food, service with a smile, and all at good prices.
Basically, a good food place for me must have great tasting food, be decently priced, great ambiance, and awesome customer service, which they both did so well at.
Getting a simple smile and thank you in LA from a restaurant owner or worker to me is priceless. As weird as it sounds, it makes the food even taste better. lol! It basically shows how they treat their food & customers. Twin Castle Drive-In totally hit a home run in my book! Thank you again for serving great food with a smile.
We'll be back there no doubt.
PS: A Munchie Paradise BTW! : )
Lastly.....,
DISCLAIMER: Keep in mind, this is a fast food joint that has been around for many years in NoHo. Its not a specialty hamburger shop, like Umami burger or whatever may be trendy at this time here in SoCal. If you come by thinking, this better taste like Beverly Hills or Toluca Lake/Burbank, then you might as well go to a place like that who charges you $20 a burger and $5 for fries. Simply put, these guys are good for the prices they charge and they have nice genuine people working there. Give them a chance, read their menu, see what you like, be nice, respectful, and they will treat you like gold no matter who you are.
Most of our food experiences start with our own thoughts before we even enter a restaurant, well, with me they do.
: ) Happy trails everyone in finding your next food spot! Cheers! read more
