If you're looking for the grandest breakfast burritos in the Long Beach area, well, you can stop looking. Not only are the breakfast burritos at Yellow Basket some of the most tasty, most fiery, most savory burritos I've ever tasted, but they really shouldn't be called burritos. These concoctions are the size of a small log, some may even say a small tree. At first I balked at the $5 price tag each burrito comes with, but you're really getting your money's worth when you go with Yellow Basket. If they can get breakfast this right, I can't wait to see how well the rest of their menu fares, especially their lunch items. read more

The classic American diner. This place serves it all. From burgers, to omelettes, to chicken strips you name it. Anything you're craving, and they're most likely to have it all. I think the place is family owned and they all seem like good folks. Hardworking individuals who dont complain and treats the customers kindly. I like to get the classic burger, the breakfast burrito, the chili cheese fries, turkey melt, corn beef hash, or the chicken strips. Its a neighborhood spot that's been around for what seems like ages and they never disappoint. One of my all time favorite places to go to as a resident of Carson. read more

Great food,newly remodeled great atmosphere . Family friendly. Great location . Definitely recommend read more

MAN is their drive thru fast. I know of Yellow Basket because it was the neighborhood burger spot when I was in high school. Their burgers are always a hit w/ me. Their taste is consistent and their portions are GENEROUS. Call me crazy but they have THE BEST ranch. Nothing hits the spot like Good old Yellow Basket! read more

Their food is so bomb and their zucchini fries are to dieeeeee for! (I wish I was eating some as I'm writing this) There food is always on point! Their burgers so mouth watering and their chili cheese fries are so delicious with some ranch on the side read more

Ordered a breakfast egg and sausage sandwich in the am on 12/30/22. A fee hours later I got food poisoning. Not a fun experience.

How can the cooks be cleaning when the girls are just standing around not doing anything then the cooks with the same gloves start touching the food No thanks after sweeping the floor dont they know about germs read more

AMAZING TINA read more

A Carson staple. Big portions of greasy, satisfying food for average prices. Service is fast and employees are typically friendly. I've eaten here so many times. I feel highly about this local greasy spoon the way others might feel highly about their own local one. Minus 1-star for the condition of the furniture and overall look of the place: residue on tables, ripped upholstery, weird advertisements on tables, cheap signage on foam boards, and a rundown, in-need-of-a-remodel aesthetic. Everything I've had here is good except for their fish tacos--avoid them. The breakfast burritos are bomb. read more

I've been coming here for about 7 years now, and this place is like home to me. They used to have classic burgers for a dollar, and as a small group leader at a church next door, those were the best snacks for my small group. The teriyaki place across the street moved to the Long Beach location, but Yellow Basket has been faithful. Price and food indeed change; however, this place is still incomparable. Their BREAKFAST BURRITOS are hands down the best-- just perfectly spicy yet breakfasty, and it's worth every $$. My brother and I also come here almost every Monday for their CHILAQUILES. Wow. Those are some dangerous stuff, and you might regret it for a day, but you will come back next week for some more. read more

I order Carne asada plate..the rice is spoiled already...sour and sticky...Be careful when ordering in this restaurant

I went there last night, it was about 9:50, I was worried getting home Uber late from work, they would not take my order, BUT THEY DID!!! Took my order, no problem, prepared correctly, cashier was totally pleasant at the window! I was so grateful! Thanks Yellow Basket! read more

Spent $33 on a burger combo, chili cheese fries and a kids meal. The fries tasted old. Like they were sitting out for a while and refried. The chili cheese fries had no flavor and the fries were just as bad. Didn't even eat them. They only thing that was decent was the burger. Will not be coming here again. read more

Well, won't go there again. Went there at 8:45 pm. Staff turned off the lights and pretended to close. The moment I drove off, lights came on. All you had to say is we're closed on the drive thru speaker. Don't worry, just went to the next burger joints. read more

This is the second time I've been at the yellow basket on Avalon. And both times I've asked for well done fries. First time did not get well done fries. This time when I went today I wanted to get the chili fries and I asked her to please make the fries well done. She said okay. Also got a chicken fried steak sandwich which I asked for extra mayonnaise and lots of pickles put on it. I got lots of mustard on it which the sandwich is normally really good it was okay with the mustard but would have been better with no mustard and extra mayonnaise. Got home was really excited and opened the chili fries and the fries are very limp and undercooked. So there's no way for me to fix these chili fries since I cannot throw the fries in my air fryer make them crispy. I spent over $14 on two items. I can't even eat the chili fries because the chili is all over the fries and there's no way me eating around that. Sucks when it's your first meal of the day and you can't even eat it. read more

So I tried this place for tthe first time today. Got a breakfast burrito. (To the guy who said it was dry..ask for salsa on the side) Anyways, the burrito was good, but about $1.00 more than the place I usually go to and not much different. I gave a 3 star because after using the restroom there was no toilet paper and no seat covers. I kindly told two lady's at the cashier and their reaction was blaa, like they didn't care... a simple "thank you for letting us know, we'll take care of it." Would have been nice, but no... they didn't care. Kinda scary that the employees use this room too... ewww. @9am today.. A restaurant bathroom says a lot about a restaurant. read more

Super disgusting!! Carne Asada Burrito with hair! (But why is it curly and long like that though... fried and stuck in the meat!) I mean, .... #%$&!!!!!! Just makes you want to puke! Employees in the line of cook do not wear hair nets! An A rating?!? What a stinking joke!! read more

It used to be my favorite place for pastrami but I purchased one today November 2, 2022 and the price has jump very high quality, for some reason went very low. Used to be lean meat now a lot of fat. I was very disappointed I have been going there far before the remode. Well I will give them another try on the pastrami. Hope it's better next time around. read more

Finally decided to give this place a shot - Got a breakfast burrito! It was soooo good, had eggs, sausage, bacon, cheese & pico de gallo (chopped tomato salsa) . A little spicy which is awesome! Would come back again and order another one :) Ps- the prices on the menu are covered with tape and paper lol . I guess the prices are a mystery until it's time to pay! I wish they would remodel the joint - from the exterior it does not look appetizing at all, which sucks cause the breakfast burritos are bomb! read more

I ordered a turkey burger with avocado from here and it was delicious! They made it fresh to order and it was so juicy. Typically turkey burgers can be a hit or miss and i was very satisfied with my order. The fries were delicious as well and you get a lot of bang for your buck. read more

You can't beat yellow basket's prices and their huge portions. They have awesome breakfast deals and their breakfast burritos are so goddamn good. The service is friendly and you'll have your food within 10 minutes, tops. YB doesn't look like much from the outside. The building looks old and the interior is outdated. You wouldn't expect such good burgers and burritos from a place like this but mama said don't be so quick to judge. If you have an appetite and your wallet is looking a little sad, come here and you'll leave pretty satisfied. I recommend any of their burgers or breakfast burritos. And of course you can't forget the fries too! read more

Yellow Basket - Bacon and Sausage breakfast burrito with added avocado - Burgers Near Me - Carson, California

Loved this place. I come here every weekend for a brunch. Friendly staff. Went there at dinner trying to get some strips. Didnt need any drink or fries so asked if I could get just the strips they said ok and ringed up 10.74 for 6 strips whereas combo with drink and fries is 7.99. When I questioned the price the two girls seemed to find no issues about it because it is not a combo. I guess it is very normal to charge more money for lesser food. When I said never mind I heard them chuckling and swearing in Spanish. Not cool. read more

I grew up in Carson and have been going to this place since late 70s. Glad they finally remodel it. Love their burgers and fries. Zucchini sticks are real good. read more

Terrible!! Just waited 30mins in the drive thru and to only be resulted in disappointment. On top of waiting the lady got our order wrong. The onion ring is falling apart while the batter tasted old. The fries are cold and soggy. Service is still rude.Can't believe we got excited about the remodeling when it's the same old nasty place. read more

Drive-through took longer then expected and on top of that the food was a 2/10! Bacon, meat and onion rings way over cooked super super dry, wouldn't recommend this place at all! read more

I ordered a breakfast burrito and was not satisfied. Hashbrowns were under cooked and protein was very limited..Excess tortilla and it didn't come with salsa so it was dry. read more

DO NOT EAT HERE! I ordered a Cobb Salad from GrubHub and when it came the chicken was old and chewy and the lettuce was wilted. I could only get 2 bites down because it was gross. I contacted Yellow Basket and they would not give me a refund. $28 for water and a salad. Just go somewhere else to eat and save yourself the headache. read more

My boyfriend and I were excited to go back to yellow basket after they remodeled only to be a complete disappointment!! We ordered the chicken club sandwich with fries & drink, a corn dog, and chili cheese fries and let me tell you we were very disappointed the chili cheese fries had no flavor along with the fries, the corn dog was soggy & so was the chicken sandwich we live less then a mile away so it couldn't of gotten soggy that fast ... we use to eat here as kids after school and as adults would stop by about once a month or so n the food was a bit better back before it was remodeled sad to say we will not be returning read more

Don't know which is worse the food or the service? Walk in to get breakfast to see two people talking nobody says hi good morning the convo finished she walks past me says nothing; order my food from a different girl order my kids breakfast ask when I should come back she shrugs her shoulders I said ok 10 min. I came back in 10 it was ready. Bag felt light I ordered a couple pancake breakfasts and a French toast and a chorizo egg burrito. I asked if the whole order was in there of course she says yes. It's all tied up so you trust her oh I had to ask if she threw in salsa for my chorizo and egg burrito. She said there was 1. 1 little tiny salsa asked her for more. I got home they shorted us a pancake for the kids order; they shorted us a sausage; and most importantly the food was crap. The chorizo and egg burrito was burnt chorizo and egg. I took a bite even though my eyes said no; horrible. 35 dollars could have been better been used as starting fluid for my fireplace. Message to owner get some training for you and your staff or continue to operate 1 star restaurant. Horrible experience. read more

Worst diner in the South Bay. Every time I come here whether it's drive thru or dining in, I continuously get bad service and get my order wrong. Smh read more

HORRIBLE service there's a girl who seems to be a teenager & an old lady both are rude and can't do simple customer service. the teenage girl has a horrible attitude it's not good for their business. the old lady can't even take an order correctly she messed up our order 3 times it's ridiculous. After the little altercation the teenage girl went to pick up some plates some people left and she was slamming the plates into her basket she needs to be fired if she can't handle simple requests read more

I would come here for the novelty, but not much else. The outside looks abandoned. The inside appears remodeled, but not maintained. The men's bathroom is similar to a truck stop that they must clean once a month. The worst part is the water. I'm fairly certain it's unfiltered and dirty. I got a cup of water and it tasted like toilet water. I know this because I've had toilet water before. Now if their cups of water tastes like toilet, what do you think they cook and wash all their ingredients with? Bottled water? Nope. They wash and cook everything with the same quality water. They staff were cool, though. read more

You know that old saying, "no matter how much you try to polish a turd, it's still a turd?" Well, that holds true here. Called and asked for an egg burrito (that doesn't even come with bacon), said multiple times on the phone, "NO MEAT," as I don't eat meat and it makes me sick. Two bites into my burrito, a mound of bacon. Utterly disgusted, I pretty much paid $8 to throw up for lunch. Don't be fooled by the remodel. It's still a crappy fast food place that isn't good at what they do. read more

Don't waste your time. The food is okay and the service is the same, okay. I asked for extra seasoning she repeated it back to me fine. I must have pissed them off with my request because I got the top fries with seasoning and the rest, naked. They were gross without the seasoning. Food was slapped together. If you haven't been here, keep driving. read more

Used to be me and my co-workers favorite spot for breakfast burritos. Had seen they were renovating and I'm thinking it's a new owner. I don't know if they changed cooks or if the owner changed things up, but it is not what it used to be! Prices went up, breakfast burritos got smaller and the taste isn't there anymore. Their Pico de Gallo doesn't even taste the same. And to top it off the girl at the counter has really bad customer service; no nice greeting or a "thank you", just huffs puffs and walks away. We are definitely finding us a new spot for our breakfast burritos. read more

Terrible owner, I was there to buy food on 11/7/20 when a car broke down in the drive thru a young kid having car trouble car would not move even after trying to help him push it and the owner came out screaming and yelling that we were ruining her business. read more

3 stars just because the cashier was nice. Other than that food was not even up to par.. Hash browns tasted like they were microwaved but looked crispy. Huevos Rancheros Eggs were well done instead of it being runny. Rice & beans were way to salty. If these are the same cooks from before the renovation, maybe you guys should renovate the way the chefs prepare their food. read more
