My favorite place to stop in and grab a bite to eat! The one thing I have to get is the Carne Asada Nachos!! Homemade chips, never stale! Lots of meat, cheese, beans. And fresh pico de gallo. Bacon Burgers are my 2nd favorite thing to order here. read more

I haven't been to this place in quite some time because of the quality of the food and someone needs to be doing some serious quality control. Now I didn't think this place could get any worse but surprisingly they exceeded my expectations. This is the toilet bowl of burger joints. I ordered a small chili cheese fries and the chili was dry like a sponge with undercooked fries, onion rings were very bland and my fruit was colored water for $18......Save yourself the headache and go somewhere else. I love to support local businesses but not like this. Surely will not be returning. read more

Don't go here for breakfast burritos unless you want diarrhea!! Go to the DogHaus on corner of Carson and Avalon. DogHaus has much better food!! . I used to be a loyal customer of Yellow Basket before they renovated and went downhill. I used to come in for the breakfast burritos. On one of my last trips they didn't get my order right they agreed to replace it, but when we called to do it the person was extremely rude and refused to credit the food. I tried it 2 more times after that but both times my family ended up with diarrhea for hours. I'm not sure why their quality went downhill but try DogHaus Down the street next to the ihop they're breakfast burritos are awesome above and beyond what yellow basket offers. read more

BE CAREFUL PAYING WITH YOUR BANK CARD!!! Good Food, this is my go to place but recently I got my Card info stolen from one of the 2 young drive-thru cashiers, don't remember which one it was but I noticed she was acting weirdly nervous when she gave my card back after taking it and not giving it back till my food was ready. Went back 2 days later and once she looked at me she got nervous right away, I didn't understand why, to my surprise this morning she had ordered clothes online!!! I'm definitely gonna go and confront both them with their manager and see which one it was! And I'll make sure she gets fired! read more

Ok so I haven't been to this spot since they remolded the place... first time I went I got a BLT Sandwhich ... start eating it and sure enough had a big freaking strand of hair in the food... turned me off..... Ok so I return today 5/05/20 All because my wife wanted yellow basket ... know that I didn't tell her about the first incident weeks ago because than she won't want to come to one of her favorite places I get the French toast combos Yet again another freaking hair( I am bald by the way) Their employees seriously need to wear hair nets or something ... this is just my luck seriously read more

This place used to be really good, but no more, ordered a bacon double cheeseburger with no lettuce and no thousand island dressing, of course when it was delivered it had a ton of lettuce and about 2 ladles full of thousand island dressing and cold to the bone, had to throw the whole thing in the trash, will never order from here again, if these people are too stupid to follow simple instructions then maybe they should just close the business because they can't do the job. read more

Taste no better than other mom and pop burger joints. The chili cheese burger was definitely not the best I had but was eatable.

I came in early around 9am thinking lunch was just around the corner and decided to order the carne asada plate with rice and beans. Drive through was empty so I figured it would be a quick hot meal. Definitely not what I thought a carne asada plate should look like and most importantly taste. It looked like dry ground turkey meat with no flavor. All I could do is try a sample of the rice, beans, and dry meat. Unfortunately I had to throw it away and last time I will be stopping by. read more

Yellow Basket - Carne asada plate with rice, beans, and pico de gallo. - Burgers Near Me - Carson, California

Stopped in for late breakfast, early lunch. My girlfriend ordered the greek salad. It looked and tasted like they really care. You won't find one as good in many fine restaurants. The cook is an artist. I haven't had chicken fried steak in many decades, so I ordered it. Better than I remembered. Sit and watch stuff coming out of the kitchen. It will make you want to come back and try everything. But OMG. The last time I came here I ordered chocolate shake. And I wondered why it took so long to get it. Wow! When you see how they do it and taste it, you will know it simply is the best chocolate shake you will ever have. It reaal is all good! read more

Had a weird experience... i was sitting in the drive through for 2 minutes trying to figure what i wanted but then the cashier comes out and wants me to move because she wants to take the order for the car behind me. She came out rushing for no reason. Weird behavior. read more

Recently remodeled. Looks great and not "dated" anymore. I ordered the Fried Chicken dinner plate. The chicken was juicy on the inside and crispy on the outside. Just the way fried chicken should be. The plate comes with fires and about 4 onion rings as well as a side salad and a drink of choice. This place is not the cheapest but the prices are reasonable. The portions are good sized and you definitely won't leave hungry. read more

I have been going here for years and I must say I get more and more dissatisfied with their food, I really think tonight was my last time. It's not the cheapest so you would hope that the food is of quality and tasteful unfortunately my onion rings were very hard with no flavor at all! I ordered a cup of chili with cheese and onions, got home no cheese or onions so disappointed I wasted $24 on this meal read more

I bought a carne a safe burrito It was cold tough and disgusting. I ate a few bites and threw it in the trash.

Only thing alright was their crispy chicken sandwich. Chili cheese fries were drier than a monkeys bottom. Second time around I order a cheeseburger combo and some onion rings, fries looked frozen and onion rings were more pale than the residents of Orange County and had no seasoning at all. I know why it's called Yellow basket, it's because they take all the yellow out of their food and put in a basket aka they take the life out of the food. That is all read more

I really tried to like this place as I'm a huge advocate of small business but seems like this place upgraded the building but downgraded their service and food. I'm not going to say I "regret" spending $70 for brunch but it won't happen again. They got my order wrong after repeating it THREE times at the drive through. The egg white burrito had nothing but tortilla stuffed w potatoes. The Garden burger was disgusting. Their pancakes are dry & the French toast was "okay". The hash browns are more like house potatoes. I recommend Monk's over on 228th and Vermont over this joint any day read more

The breakfast burrito is an ok size. The taste was nothing too special, needed more flavor. I really disliked that the sausage wasn't cut and distributed evenly, 1/2 my burrito was with no meat and the other 1/2 just had 3 links thrown and wrapped soppily. Ranch is alright and customer service was nice. read more

Great service & foods served hot and fast. Clean table & chairs. We will surely come back read more

There are a plethora of diners in my area, but this is one that I've never been to, but I've driven past is numerous times. I ordered the carne aside burrito no rice, with added cilantro and onions today. It was okay. The burrito doesn't automatically come with cilantro and onions, so you have to request it. It comes with pico de gallo by default. My only complaint was that the carne aside was a little too salty. No big deal though. Parking: they have their own parking lot, and it wasn't crowded when I went, so i was able to find parking fairly easily. Seating: very open. It has a lot of windows so you get a lot of natural light wherever you choose to sit. Price: it's not as expensive as the other diners I've been to but the quantity of their food is just as generous as other diners I've been to. It's a good place to come with if you have a group of friends with you, since most of their dishes are easily shareable. read more

I ordered scrambled eggs hash browns with wheat toast. They're fresh and not greasy. We were at this other restaurant for Easter breakfast but it was crowded, the wait was long so after waiting for 20 mins we just left and the host was rude too. So if you want fast service, good food and excellent service tthis is the place. read more

Pretty good breakfast/burger place in the area. don't let the outside fool you! the food is a lot better than the outside looks. They have a lot of different things on their menu so if you and your friends don't know what to eat, you should probably come here. My coworkers and I come here often since it's close to our office and they always like what they get, and we always get something different every time. I've gotten the club sandwich, which was ginormous, but all the toppings were falling out of the sandwich since they gave me so much. I also got the avocado burger which was good too. My boss likes to get the jr. cheeseburger with egg. Their onion rings are really good too! Another coworker always gets the breakfast burrito. Usually there's parking, but it's just hard to see the line. The drive thru is very different here. You go up to the sign but you have to run over the "bell" on the ground so they know you're there. And you pick up on the passenger side. (All other drive thru's have the driver as the ordering side/pick up side, but this place doesn't.) read more

Good food for its value. Its a mom and pop quick stop. They're burgers hit the spot when you're in the mood for a charbroiled burger with thousand island dressing. It's a 7/10 for me because the meat is thin. I just had some breakfast with my daughter. The kids meal is 1 big pancake 1 sausage and 1 egg. Great size. I had their French Toast I was impressed! Really good. Their coffee is stronger than other places so that was a plus for me too. It's a 3 because the food doesn't wow, it isnt like a hidden gem or anything. However, it does deliver good food for a good price. 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

Bomb burger spot, they dont skimp on the portions and always quick. dont really eat inside but they cleaned it up kinda nice, who would put a bad review for a water, come on cheap oh.... buy a fucking drink. Get the double bacon cheeseburger.... KILLAH... the ortega sandchich is fire too!!!! 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

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.

Just one of the many mom & pop, hole in a wall breakfast/burger joints found in Carson that serves a wide range of...stuff. I have eaten at almost all of them and my recent visit has lead me to a not so pleasant meal, my least favorite in fact. I recall this place being in a much better condition than the condition it's in now. Even though there are cars parked in the lot, a line in the drive-thru, customers eating at a table or two, the place feels deserted and run down. The prices on the menu board are covered with paper and tape, maybe from the constant increase of cost. The main counter is wide and spacious yet it is bare with nothing to offer but a coffee maker and a container with condiments. The smell of the place is not of bacon and eggs but of lemon bathroom cleaner. There is no greeting at the door. There are no smiles in the faces behind the counter. I ordered the spinach omelette with extra crispy hash browns and rye toast. The first bite was delicious, the next was decent and the ones after that were daunting. The hash browns were basic and the rye toast was buttered only on one slice. Unfortunately, my omelette was all cheese and spinach with a pinch of egg. It was very rich and I did not finish it. I've tried this place out and sadly I will only be driving by from now on. read more

My last meal on Earth..The Breakfast Burrito..the Hash Brown, the egg, bacon, sausage in it..Yum Yum and the Hot sauce salsa is fiery, hot and gives you the right kick needed. This Burrito is so huge that it can easily be your lunch.. Beats any other Breakfast Burrito in Taste, size & price hands down! Yellow Basket Breakfast Omelet(comes with Hash brown/Fries and Toast) is also delicious! All their fries including zucchini fries, carne asada fries etc are super duper... read more

Ode to Yellow Basket A tis-kit, a tas-ket I ate at Yellow Basket I didn't think I'd like it It really was the sh!!ts The breakfast burger rocks It really knocked my socks It was yummy Greasy Now tummy rolls are creasy The cost was just 4 dollars So lemme give a holler YB's cheap, fast. and fine I'll be back another time.. PS - their breakfast burger is a small charbroiled beef patty in between a hamburger bun. It's also stuffed with two or three thick slices of greasy bacon, greasy hash brown potatoes, and egg. It's a cholesterol sandwich that was so greasy, my chapped lips were no longer chapped after the grease dropped into my lips. read more
