The bad:Fairly pricy, and fried (as opposed to grilled to lose some of that fat and get a bit of char) burgers. Lousy parking , limited menu, and the decor is about ten years away from being museun worthy. The seats are too close for people who eat this way often. the wedge cut fries are cooked in oil that isn't quiite hot enough so the center isnt fluffy, and the outside is oily. The good: These are big burgers made with good meat, and you would do the fixings this way at home if you could. the best burger in the area is served at barney's. less

I must agree, excellent hamburgers. Clearly the best hamburgers I have tried in Walnut Creek, and one of the best in the area. The good things are: They will actually cook a rare burger; They have an excellent condiment bar with sliced red onion, fresh lettuce and tomatoes, plus both sweet relish (yech) and sliced and quartered dill pickles; They?re grilled onions are wonderful. The down sides: The meat is not quite as excellent as In & Out. The fries are of the frozen, pre-sliced variety, and are thus quite inferior to In & Out; and they are slightly more expensive than In & Out. Overall, since they are closer to me than In & Out, I plan to become a regular of this place. I REALLY like a good burger, and this place provides just that. I love fresh slices of red onion, tomatoes, and pickles on my burger, and they have it all. Best of all the burger was rare. A wonderful little hamburger place. less

These are THE best hamburgers in town. Excellent quality meat, and wonderful, fresh hamburger rolls. We've been coming here since the early 80's. George, the owner, just retired, and the new owners promises not to change a thing. So far, he hasn't. Same excellent quality hamburgers for a very reasonable price. less
