    BBQ Burger
    Sebastian C.

    I was sad to see Peter's Gourmade Burgers go after their short stint at the Fullerton location but was excited to see a different burger spot open up. I've learned to keep my expectations low for new openings with restaurants but this spot caught my eye immediately and I had high hopes for a good new burger spot in the area. Here's what I've tried: **BBQ Burger: I was quite disappointed with this burger overall. There was a really light spread of bbq sauce in the burger that I couldn't taste anything except for the patty. I wish it was more bursting with flavor. (2/5) **Chimichurri Burger: Hands down, one of the best burgers I've ever had. Their housemade chimichurri is absolutely delicious. You can taste every ingredient including their arugula, pepper jack cheese, tomato, and pickled onion. Next time I'm for sure getting the double patty for that extra $4 charge. (5/5) **Farmer's Market Salad: Wanted to try a salad for my first visit after a hot day out in the sun and this simple salad caught my eye. It was very refreshing with all the different veggies but it was missing one thing that I was looking forward to the most, jicama. On top of that, their house made lemon vinaigrette was not good. The mint was overpowering the whole salad too. The fresh ingredients are there but the flavor profile was all over the place. (2/5) **Sweet Potato Fries: Delicious. Restaurants either make their sweet potato fries too salty or too sweet. Uptown makes them just right, no complaints. (5/5) My first visit was on a random weekday evening and the gentleman working was very kind. He was very polite and went straight into a conversation with every single person he interacted with. Since it was my first time, I asked for recommendations and that's when he recommended the BBQ Burger. I knew I should've gone with the Chimichurri but I wanted to try out a few items before writing this review. During my first visit, there were two people already waiting for their order and after I ordered, it took quite a while. My second visit, I put my pickup time for 1PM on a weekday afternoon and my order was ready by 1PM on the dot. Why am I giving them 4 stars instead of the 5? Although I really enjoyed their chimichurri burger and sweet potato fries, the other items were not up to par in my standards. Also, prepare to wait a little bit during dinner time. I'd come during the off hours unless you have time to spare. Anyways, this is a good new burger spot and I'll be peeking in from time to time when I need my burger fix that's not your typical fast food chain.

    Mojo S.

    I've always enjoyed a good patty melt. Since my high school days where they had excellent sourdough and fresh made beef patties, there's something about the beef, grilled onions, melted cheese, and sharp sourdough that hits especially hard. Uptown has a very good patty melt, opting to add a roasted garlic aioli and use white cheddar instead of yellow to distinguish it from the masses. And they are welcome changes as they do nothing but increase the flavor quotient on an otherwise simple burger. The Reese's Shake was great too, even if peanut butter chunks were not as blended as I like them to be. If I can't get them up the fat straw, it's not blended enough. The service was good, if a bit slow. But it wasn't a huge deal as they were kind of busy. But they answered questions well and were very helpful in giving recommendations . They also were very helpful in explaining their weekly promotions. The ambience is good too. There is a ton of room with various two, fours, and three top booths, tables, and high tables. It's the kind of no-frills fast casual burger joint that fills in the gap between a fast food place and a true sit-down restaurant. I also liked that they said the tables are easy to push together for larger parties. All in all, this is a great place for burgers or just get together with some running. It's definitely in the running for lunch or dinner plans when I'm in the area.

    This is place is amazing. The staff and the owner !!! OMG! How many places still have an owner that actually shows up , greets customers , gives our orders and cleans up ? The food was amazing. I will definitely be coming back :)

    Stopped in on opening day, we tried burgers, fries, and onion rings. The food was fine, the burgers were slightly lacking in flavor, I was hoping for a little more like specialty sauces, pickles, better buns, etc. Staff were very friendly, seems like a popular hangout spot for high school and college kids. Stop in and try for yourself!

    Milkshake

    Hidden gem of burgers. Great size, juicy, and comes out nice and hot. Don't sleep on their milkshakes! Perfect to finish off the burger with.

    Uptown classic with turkey patty and sweet potato fries
    Mary H.

    Great new burger spot in Fullerton. It's located in a Ralph's shopping mall with lots of easy parking. They have several curated burger combos to choose from along with chicken sandwiches and salads. I like that they give you a choice of beef, turkey, or veggie patty for your burger. I had the uptown classic with a turkey patty. So moist and flavorful you would never guess it was a turkey patty. I upgraded the fries to sweet potato fries. Everything was delicious. They have lots of casual seating inside or you can order to go. Service was wonderful. They came by our table several times to chat and see how we were doing. Definitely recommend.

    So good I ate it all

    Smokey Joe burger of the week.
    Zach S.

    Uptown makes some amazing food! The meat has great flavor and the perfect amount of char. Service is on point and everyone is very friendly. Has a nice vibe inside. Very clean. The burger in the photo was the burger of the week. I believe it was called the Smokey Joe... I may be wrong. It was fantastic! Their fries and onion rings are cooked perfectly. You can also get your fries well done. Their house sauce is really good as well.

    BLAT w/chicken , Smoked Red Pepper and a single turkey patty for pup
    Angie R.

    Party of three very happy with our choice and didn't disappoint, it's DE-licious !!!! A must for anyone wanting a good moist burger . We had the BLAT with chicken , the red pepper turkey burger and of course our pup got his turkey patty and we were truly satisfied. Staff is friendly, fast service and clean dining area. Give it a try !!!

    Teriyaki chicken sandwich with fries
    Jim A.

    Came to the restaurant with my wife to have lunch. Ordered the teriyaki chicken sandwich with fries. The sandwich came with fries so you did not have to order them separately. I liked this. The sandwich could have used more teriyaki sauce on it. I think one of the customer complaints is that the cooks are not putting enough sauce on the food. I talked to the owner about this and suggested they ask the customer if they would like a small cup of the side of the sauce that comes with the meal. That way they can add as much as they want. The owner seems enthusiastic and I hope they make it.

    Pulled pork sandwich
    Pierre B.

    Second visit here. First time we came, I had the bbq burger with sweet potato fries. This time round changed it up and had the pulled pork sandwich with onion rings. Everything was excellent. Flavorful and the value is great. The ambiance, music, and Joe greeted us and what a good stand up guy, easy to talk to and accommodating. Very clean and organized. Will definitely be back. Thanks again.

    Patty melt with sweet potato fries
    Joan V.

    Very solid burger spot! Everything came out quickly and piping hot. The Cremini burger was delicious, sometimes you don't need to overcomplicate a burger, and this one you could taste each ingredient and it was all very fresh. The patty melt was also very good, the bread was toasted to perfection and had the perfect crunch. The service was also great and the space was very clean. The staff was attentive and cleared our table after we were done. Only thing is the prices were a bit high for a burger and some fries but we will definitely be coming back to try their other items! Adding some seasoning onto the fries may help elevate the meal, the sweet potato fries were nice and crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, but I would have liked some sort of seasoning on top. Parking is in a plaza lot so plenty of space.

    Arugula burger and fried
    Robert G.

    Checked out this spot during a lunch rush, and while it was packed, the line zipped along efficiently--definitely worth the short wait. Our order arrived piping hot in less than 10 minutes, which was impressive given the crowd. I went for the arugula burger, and it was a standout: the fresh greens added a peppery kick that paired perfectly with the juicy patty, and melty cheese for a unique, flavorful twist on a classic. It hit all the right notes. The French fries on the side were golden, crispy on the outside, and fluffy inside, cooked to absolute perfection. Overall, solid spot for a quick, satisfying burger fix. We'll be back!

    Comfy booths! Big enough for larger groups!
