20 Best Burger Restaurants in Alhambra

“The best dog place in SoCal“

“Very nice atmosphere worth the wait for the burgers very delicious“

“Pharos is seriously solid. The fried mushrooms were crispy and delicious—definitely worth trying. The turkey burger was on point too, juicy and packed with flavor.

I snagged a bite of my son’s breakfast burrito (he had it for dinner), and I totally get why it’s a favorite. It was super tasty and hit the spot.

The food is really good, the place is clean, and the service is quick. Plus, it’s owned by a super nice family, which makes it even better. Pharos is a spot I’ll definitely be coming back to.“

“I was working in this area. I asked one of my customers where is a good burger spot appointed me to polish palace burgers I was not disappointed. The price was great. I was getting amazing burger, thick fries, which tasted very good. Very nice family owned and operated people run this restaurant“

“Retro corner shop serving sandwiches, burgers, and other hot food.
----------
Wet Fries with Gravy
Grade: A-
I don't know what kind of stock they use for the gravy but the flavor is phenomenal. A little on the salty side but not too bad when you spread it out over the fries. The portion size is also massive
----------
Pastrami Dip
Grade: C-
The smokiness of the pastrami is good but it is really salty. I don't know if it's the pastrami itself or the au jus but the salt overpowers the rest of the flavor.“

“went for lunch today, ordered some chillaquillas got home terrible a plate full of chips n green sauce terrible. also ordered a grilled cheese for the grandbaby gpt home literally was a small square of cheese in the middle.of the bread maybe like 2x2 slice. Needless to say I returned for a refund cause I'm not paying top dollar for food I wouldn't even feed my dog. The guy said the owner Rola didn't want to give me a refund but decided too lol n than minus the tax I paid!!!! so ur gonna keep taxes on food I ordered yet I returned the garbage. This burger spot used to b teh business back in the day I will not spend a dime ther ever again!!!“

“Un lugar familiar donde lo que preparan está delicioso y muy limpio. Me encanta!!! 😉🍔🍟👌👍“

“My experience at Ace Burger today was nothing short of amazing! I ordered the chicken tenders, fries, and corn on the cob, and everything was a perfect 10. The chicken tenders especially stood out—they had the perfect amount of spice and breading. On top of the fantastic food, the woman who made the food and the gentleman (I believe they’re the owners) were incredibly welcoming and thoughtful. Their kindness made the visit even more special. Wishing much success to this wonderful place!!

P.S. Food was so good I forgot to take pictures 😂❤️“

“Famous star tonight was "Bustin"“

“The food is standard burger/ Mexican fare. The price for each item in 2025 is under $10 with certain exceptions in regards to meals and dinner plates. There is a small parking lot that is associated with Ernie's burgers and is free. The food is good for the price but if you expect good food I would recommend other locations.

I had the patty melt, tuna melt and chili fries with cheese:

The Patty Melt ($8 approx.) is decent but has the issue of using a bad cheese for patty melts and poor order. The cheese adhered to the bread as opposed to the patties which leads to hard bread and less flavorful patties. The choice of cheese was American cheese which doesn't work well for Patty Melts, had they chosen a Cheddar or Swiss cheese the overall melt would have been better. Aside from those issues the bread was toasted nicely and there was a small amount of onions (partly caramelized)

The Tuna Melt($7-8) was good for it's price, similar to the patty melt the bread was toasted nicely, the cheese was American Cheese and would have been better if they had chosen another type of cheese. The Tuna mix was a bit of a mess but decent. The pros were that it was light on mayo, resulting in a dryer tuna mix for those who prefer such things. The cons were the inconsistencies in flavor namely the random bites of acidity. If the acidity was more uniform and spread out so each bite had a nice little acidic bite it would be fine. However, as it was, there were random dry but good parts not overpowered by the cheese and random spots where all you could taste was what I assumed was vinegar.

Lastly the chili fries with cheese, this was a decent option but nothing standout, if you want chili cheese fries i'd advise you to seek other restaurants. The issues I had were the fries were crispy to and extent but served with chili that lack impact. As a sloppy mess to finish after your meal after the fries have soaked in chili it's fine. However, when eaten as it was served the fries were a bit too crispy and didn't absorb any of the chili's flavor even if it didn't have much to begin with.

All in all, if you want a quick cheap bite to eat, Ernie's burgers works great for a quick and cheap bite, but if you want flavor seek other establishments. Whilst Ernie's is not bad it certainly doesn't hold up to the other nearby establishments in terms of flavor.“

“The food was wonderful and the service was ok, but I love it anyways and I recommend going here“

“The food here is amazing and i hadn’t had this in a long time & i totally missed it, also the serivces are great, even tho it takes time but i totally appreciate it“

“OMG I could not eat another bite... Shrimp Bay omelette.... awesome! Companion ordered Popeye special . Double awesome. My English muffin was toasted perfectly and hash browns also came out great . Did not know they were shakes there until we looked under desserts , voila there they were. Never going to a fast food for shakes again while Bun n Burger is open. Real ice cream homemade shakes $4 much larger than any you can get had to drive thru. My only complaint is that they close at 3:00 and aren't open 24/7 . Of course then I would be a much heavier person, so it's better the way it is . Can't wait to go back and try different meals!!

Parking: There's a small lot behind the restaurant . There's street parking but when it's crowded you have to park a little ways away . Worth it though .“

“I was a doorman to one of the Main Street bars, and customers would always tell me to go checkout Jay Dee's. So I finally did after 2 years. It's a cool place to hang out and have a drink. Drinks are reasonable, and it's a cash only bar. Customers are friendly too, & no haters. Has pool tables and darts. No, dj, but they have a jukebox playing cool music. Bartenders are friendly and treat everyone like family. I would go back 😊👍🍻🥂“
