The food was delicious! It was my first time going and I would definitely go back. It's not a very big restaurant but they do have a patio that we ate out on. I had the California Classic hamburger and shared an order of the fries. Both the regular fries and the coney fries are good and perfect size for sharing. I also appreciated the wet wipe they serve with their burgers.

Let me be so for real with this review. Firstly, yes I would go back, the food is delicious. I’ve heard it compared to In-n-Out, but Class Clown is better.

I had driven past for years and finally made a stop in. The major downside is the long wait and slow service. We went at 1:30 on a Saturday and they had a 45-60 minute wait. It actually increased as we were getting a table to over 2 hours. So join the list early!!

I didn’t realize this is also a natural wine bar, and they have a truly impressive bar menu. You can tell someone put passion into curating this. We just grabbed soda, but sadly it was pretty flat.

Class Clown has an interesting juxtaposition between kitchen and bar. It complements the vibe they’ve curated inside - grandmas basement has never looked better - they’re doing something that’s their own.

It’s possible that seeing it only as a burger spot gave me the presumption it’d be faster, even as a sit down spot. But for real, once our order was taken, what took so long to throw the tots in the fryer and a patty on the grill?

I enjoyed the experience so much at this place is forgot to even take photos! Usually they have a long wait list but we got in right away and were seated at their very cool retro bar. Our server has great and had an awesome personality. They had great craft cider and also offered wine bottle sizes as well. Cant wait to go back and enjoy another burger!

Server was stand offish. I asked to switch one of the sauces from the burger and add lettuce and was told I cant do that because of their rules & that their kitchen couldn't keep up with changing the sauce and adding lettuce.

Incredible little hamburger joint. Re-imagined classics served in a cozy 70's era restaurant; think paneled wood walls, kitschy decorations, and lots of orange.
I like to order the Donald McRonald and the coney fries. They also have a really interesting drink menu and 2 flavors of ice cream.
Do it.

Wheelchair accessibility: Not really. It's quite narrow.

Food & Service A+
The atmosphere was nice retro feel. Not a very big place, not many seats. The booth seats are tight for tall people to get in and out of. Reserving a table is difficult due to the restaurant size and popularity. Expect to wait if you want to dine in.

Parking: Some parking. Depends on the time of day.

Wheelchair accessibility: Not wheelchair accessible. Due to small size of the restaurant.

K these were worth the hype. Best burger I've ever had. Just be warned that you'll be waiting for a bit. There's a bit of a wait to get in, and it did take around 40 minutes to get our food after ordering. Totally worth the wait, just be prepared. Edit: been there twice now, the burgs were as amazing as I remembered and they will forever live in my dreams. Also tried the Coney fries this time ???

I was there Saturday Nov 2 for lunch, our first time, and the host seating you looked miserable. Super unwelcoming , Didn’t see her smile once, I understand having a bad day but you’re the face of the place… even later when she was seating people next to us, she wasn’t exactly… pleasant when she spoke

Our server totally made up for it, tall, dark hair she was an absolute doll so thank you!! (She deserves 5 stars)

I was a bit surprised they didn’t have milkshakes!
They have an ice cream machine for sundaes so I hope that’s coming soon
Wish there was more non alcoholic options other than pop.

The burger was great!! The fries were average but overall this place was an experience ??

Probably would do take out next time

Love the atmosphere and vibe of the place. The burgers are pretty decent as well and the super duper fries were delicious! I like that the burgers are standalone and you have the option to add fries if you choose to.

Downsides are they should definitely add milkshakes to the menu! Awesome diner vibes but missing the quintessential milkshake.

Another downside was that our party was of 5 so probably bigger than the average party size but the server did not write down our order. It wasn't a complex order as it was just 5 burgers + a portion of super duper fries to share but she did mess up one of our group's burger and got the spicy chicken burger instead of the non-spicy one. My feedback would be to just write down the order next time cause why not!

Good food isn’t worth the behavior of staff. I asked for takeout because of the hour wait list and she said no to me. I was waiting in a corner for my friend. Two other guys came in. Same with the wait time but she got their order for takeout!
