Burger Restaurants near Del Mar

“My husband and I came here once and it’s now our favorite place to come eat! A woman Trudy who works there is an absolute super star! She is always going above and beyond to make the experience even better, the food is a plus ? don’t miss out on the grandmas Mac and cheese. It’s the best I’ve ever had!“

“We stopped in for their Tuesday kids eat free. The food was great, high quality and tasty. Fries were crispy and flavorful. Burgers were smash burger style and so good. The kids were treated with kindness and respect. They picked a soda flavor they didn't like, and the staff were quick to notice and come switch it out for them. I love that the soda is real sugar. That is a huge plus. We all enjoyed the food and the funny blooper videos on the TV screens in the dining room. It was a great experience.“

“I understand mistakes happen. I usually eat at this restaurant once a week after my late shift around 2/3 a.m. I noticed the quality of food got really bad. My meal was simple—a single patty cheeseburger with nothing on it. The first mess-up was the fries—they were burnt. Then the second mess-up: a burnt burger. Like, crispy burnt. Then my last and final straw—they served me a moldy burger that I thought was flour. Even my friends saw it and agreed after I sent them a picture. I ended up in the hospital. I called the manager, and he didn’t even offer a refund—said I was lying. I told him I’d send proof, and then he said no and hung up in my face. Not only is the manager rude and disrespectful, he cares little for his kitchen’s mistakes—and it cost me a day in the hospital. Cost me the only day I have with my son. All because his chefs are lazy and don’t care what they serve.“

“I'm from the Midwest, and our fast food joints sure don't treat you like this. Hands down one of the absolute best customer service experiences I've had. Our first time ever in a Jack in the Box. Everyone was super helpful. When the soda machine didn't have the flavor I wanted, they noticed and grabbed it for me from the back. Thank you for a great experience!“

“Very friendly staff! Fast service 💫 (Graveyard Shift You Rock)“

“Tina made my visit to The Melt unforgettable with her warm welcome, genuine kindness, and exceptional service. She guided me to the perfect meal, which was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Her attentiveness was perfectly timed—never intrusive, yet always making me feel valued. Thanks to Tina, I left with a full stomach, a big smile, and an experience worth sharing.“

“All the food here is wildly good, even if I’m biased to familiar flavors, which is what I found in their Scorchin’ Tots! I like coming back to try new stuff since they never disappoint and I think they just got a new menu on top of that too.. The staff is very sweet and one guy (Aidan) is like super helpful! Love this place Down. Gonna keep coming back, lol“

“First time got a chance to try this place and the food was amazing. Great taste, great size, portions were awesome, and taste was very good. Definitely will be back for more and I highly recommend you to try this place. Great job guys.“

“The most mid burger. My dad could grill a better burger and for a tenth of the price! Took like half an hr to get our burgers, def not worth the wait. 10 dollars for a small flavorless burger. Dont get me started on fries that tasted like the were cooked in oil that has never been changed before. Not worth at all. Biggest flop“

“After posting a negative review about the service at this restaurant, they gave me a $50 gift card to go back and try again. Unbelievably, the service was even worse this time around. We were sitting on the patio with our dogs, and the server barely made any appearances. I could see her other tables were getting frustrated, and I believed her when she apologized, saying that she was busy with her inside tables. Clearly management has not adequately staffed this restaurant, and there was never a manager checking on tables on the patio during our prolonged visit. The restaurant was incredibly popular, and I witnessed them turning multiple people away who did not have reservations while we were waiting for our table. Maybe the inside tables get better service? One of the benefits of the restaurant, though, is being able to bring our dogs, so hopefully they will figure out how to staff the patio better in the future.“

“hello the cashier was friendly and had beautiful smile and listen to my order and said thank you coming in. what a fast service and pretty busy . always clean and all co worker friendly. thank you. kathy“

“so good so clean and the service is a super service !! totally 2 tums up!!!“

“Best burger I've had in a very long time. Fries are amazing too! For the same amount you would spend at McDonald's you could come to Hamburger Hut a w and get way better quality food. I was shocked at how low the prices were. A burger, fries and a drink cost me $14.“

“Always perfect burgers and fries at this location. Friendly and fun staff.“

“Great burgers friendly service and good food.“

“juicy burgers and great shakes“

“I had the food delivered via Uber Eats, a really good burger, the original double crispy burger, packaging was top notch, I also got the half and half onion rings and fries. Onion rings were perfect, the fries were decent enough, one improvement could be a seasoning option like Cajun. Very satisfied for what I got for the price considering how expensive everything is these days.“

“Trying out burgers and saw this place came highly recommended. We got various burgers, one with an impossible patty, onion rings, plain chicken wings, corn dog, kids grilled cheese and chocolate shake.

Their burgers look great. However besides the toppings they add to them, the patties are rather bland. There is no seasoning on them at all. I really don’t understand this trend of not seasoning the patties. Not even salt. They also look like they may be pre-formed patties. They all looked exactly the same.

The fries are awesome. Our favorite type, battered. The onion rings are crispy, fat and tasty. The chicken wings are ok, sauce would have made them better but I wanted to try them plain first. No seasoning on those either, but deep fried and crispy.
Kids grilled cheese was just a burger bun with melted cheese. Very boring and both my kids weren’t impressed. Corn dog was standard frozen fare, but cooked well and tasted fine.
Chocolate shake was good, my daughter said it didn’t taste like they just added chocolate syrup to vanilla ice cream.
Over all it was okay. No one was left unsatisfied (after the corn dog was ordered after that lousy grilled cheese!). Unfortunately, probably won’t be coming back. Unless it’s just to get fries or onion rings and maybe to try their chicken sandwiches or sauced wings if we are in the area.“

“It’s the Bomb diggity! Burgers, chicken nuggets, cheese fries with bacon and shakes all epic!“

“The food here is amazing, I come here every day and I try something new constantly and it’s always delicious. The chicken caesar brussel salad and the chicken deluxe sandwich are great.

The best spot on campus, and I love the team here! Kathy, Sayra, Alejandra are the best.“

“We attended the 20th annual Celebrate the Craft. It was fantastic and we thoroughly enjoyed the event. The waitstaff at the bar was friendly and provided excellent service.“

“I love The Friendly because their food is delicious! Dirty OG flattop is perfect...smashed patties, cheese, and aioli sauce equals perfection. The burgers are small, so I always buy two. The other burgers are bomb, too! Can't go wrong here.“

“All the above!!! Child friendly, outdoor patio, food that’s great and good for you!! Also I experienced great service!!!“

“Pete’s doesn’t disappoint. Great fast service, incredible flavor and cheap prices for the quality you get. Also, fishing tip… I ordered too much food and we had about half a coney dog left from my nephew (not sure how with how great they tasted but we ate too much) we used it for bait and instantly got hit when the whole group was skunked all day. Foodie approved, fish certified with regret after eating the deliciousness and being hooked.“

“JTB. EXELENTE. DEL MAR A SUMESA“

“I love this place! Every time I go in, I'm greeted by name. It's really makes me feel right at home. My order is alway taken and brought to my table quickly. Susan always quick to check on guests and her milkshakes are to die for! If there was refills on milkshakes I probably would never leave! 5 stars, 10/10 experience each time!“

“Visiting my son before his deployment. The owner went out of his way to take care of us. I would highly recommend any military family to visit here. Food was very good too.“

“Stopped by The Melt at Del Mar Highlands and was thoroughly impressed. The BBQ Bacon MeltBurger was juicy with a perfect balance of smoky bacon and tangy sauce. The garlic parmesan fries were crispy and flavorful, making them a great side. The staff was friendly and attentive, adding to the overall positive experience. If you're in the area and craving a satisfying meal, The Melt is a solid choice.“

“ótimo atendimento e os lanches são ma“

“The top sections on the menu are 100% plant based, and the second half has meat options. It sounds like they used to be fully vegan, so it’s disappointing they added meat to the menu. I enjoyed the Munchwrap and the smash burger was pretty good. Next time I hope to try the flatbread—they currently have one plant based flatbread on the menu.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Absolutely loved my experience at The Habit Burger Grill! 🍔🔥

From the moment I walked in, the service was friendly and fast 🙌. The Charburger was perfectly grilled juicy, flavorful, and with that signature smoky char you can only get at The Habit 🍖🍞. The toppings were super fresh 🥬🍅🧅 and the toasted bun brought it all together just right.

I also tried the sweet potato fries crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and not greasy at all 🍠🍟. And don’t even get me started on the tempura green beans… next-level delicious! 🫛😋

Clean space, fair prices, and consistent quality. You can tell they care about doing burgers right. Can’t wait to come back again. 🔁💯“

“Carne asada tacos were fire and the margaritas were really good.“

“This is the original Burger Lounge and I highly recommend it for an amazing, healthy hamburger. I have been fortunate to have them walking distance to my office from day one! They have great salads and shakes, too. Great to eat there or take out!!!“

“One of my favorite local places to eat! Great beer, and great people 🍻“

“yo les doy un 10 a todo ese equipo por servir los mejores alimentos tienen justo lo que nos gusta“

“Great charbroiled hamburgers. Fun spot!“

“Well prepared delicious food.“

“Garden Grill House is a hidden gem in San Diego! They serve an amazing variety of sandwiches along with flavorful Mediterranean and Persian dishes that always hit the spot. There’s plenty of parking, which makes visiting super easy.

The outdoor patio is a great place to relax and enjoy a meal, and they also offer many types of hookahs, adding to the fun and laid-back vibe. On top of that, they host parties and birthdays, and their catering service is perfect if you want to share their delicious food at your own event.

Whether you’re stopping by for a casual hangout or planning something special, Garden Grill House is definitely worth checking out!“

“Amazing place to go Very good venue“

“First time this has happened to me. It was only a minor mistake, they forgot to put the avocado I was charged for on my chicken sandwich. I was soo hungry it was almost gone by the time I realized the missing ingredient. Haha. However, I asked the lady behind the counter if I could simply have a small order of fries instead since the sandwich was almost finished. They quickly provided me with my request and it was handled very professionally and efficiently. Thank you!“

“The burgers and fries are both quite good, and the thin crust pizza is very tasty. Many choices for the burgers and pizzas. The owner and staff are friendly and outgoing but not obnoxious or phony. Give it try!“

“We came from New Jersey to visit family we found the diner, the service and food was great we came back the next day. On our next visit we will be back . A big shout out for our server Christa , thank you .“

“Staff is amazing and the food more so. Excellente“

“Good food and music. Friendly ambiance. Very enjoyable experience!“

“They have changed the Poke bowls and now in order to get a smaller portion, you must have 1/2 traditional Poke and 1/2 Spicy. We wanted all traditional and they said NO. In order to get that you had to have the full portion. I just can't understand what the big deal is - it isn't like they were mixed together, they were separate on the bowl. It is the SAME Tuna!“

“They have a great happy hour with 1/2 price bottles of wine 🍷 on Wednesday's. It's a great place to watch the game.“

“I got the kebab fries, they were very tasty and the staff was super friendly. If anything, the prices are a bit high but I guess that’s just inflation and the cost of living. So it’s definitely a cool little spot but almost everything is $20+. But the taste of the food is worth it :)“

“Don’t let the name deceive you: just because this is technically fast food, it doesn’t mean the quality is similar to that of McDonald’s or Burger King. The food here is amazing and is not only filling but also pretty creative. For example, I had a chicken and waffle sandwich (probably my favorite thing here) that consisted of very thick vegan chicken patty, bacon, and maple aioli (somehow even better than it sounds) all squeezed between two waffles serving as the buns. I also had an order of onion rings with the house sauce and they were particularly great, especially with the sauce. They had a patty melt on special as well, which had two patties in it instead of just one, as well as a heap of caramelized onions, vegan cheese, and delicious sauce between thick slices of Texas toast; it was incredible and definitely something I would gladly order again if it was still a special. For dessert, I couldn’t decide between the horchata shake and the cookie butter shake, so I just ended up ordering both. I had the horchata shake first and it was good, but the cookie butter shake was phenomenal, and the fact that it was my second shake within a few minutes did not deter me due to how delicious it was. This location has a very nice outdoor seating area, and although I ordered my food to go, it’s a great place to eat in as well. If I get a chance to go back, I’d love to try their breakfast items, which all look just as good as the rest of their menu.“

“I went to Habit Burger on my birthday and had a pretty good experience overall. I got a free Charburger through their rewards program, which was a nice touch. The burger itself was really good—flavorful and satisfying. Personally, I found it a tad on the smaller side, but it was still filling. I’d just prefer if it were a little bigger, though that’s just preference.

We also ordered the sirloin burger, and that one was delicious—the bread was super airy and paired perfectly with the meat. The fries were a highlight too: really fresh, crisp, and flavorful, some of the best fries I’ve had from a chain.

But honestly, what surprised me most was the lemonade. They have dragonfruit and strawberry lemonade, and both are bursting with flavor—probably the best lemonade I’ve ever had at a burger chain. We got both, and you can’t go wrong with either one.

The only downside was the cashier. She came off a bit snappy and kind of rude, which wasn’t the best vibe. That said, I wouldn’t judge the whole service off of one experience—I’d like to think most of the staff aren’t like that.

Overall, great food and amazing drinks. Definitely worth visiting, especially if you’re a lemonade lover.“

“Bushfire never disappoints! Every dish is packed with unbelievable flavor, fresh ingredients, and that homemade quality you can taste in every bite. The portions are generous, the food comes out hot and perfectly cooked, and the menu has something amazing for everyone.

The staff is friendly, the service is quick, and the whole experience feels warm and welcoming. Whether it’s your first visit or your tenth, the consistency is incredible.

Honestly—this place serves some of the best food ever. Highly recommend!“
