“Went here on my 30 min lunch break, the gentleman working with super friendly and I told him I only had a remaining 15 minutes until my lunch is over and he fixed me up number eight the grilled chicken sandwich with fries. It was one of the best sandwiches I have ever had. Service was fast and friendly and I will definitely be returning. Thank You original Red Onion for a great lunch!“

“All the workers seems to be very friendly to each other back there... one of the worker with a shirt says boss on it could use a little smile. Other than that everything is good. The food is hot and fresh and very Speedy service too...“

“I had the grill chicken and Cajun fries. I really liked them. Sandwich was Juicy and very flavorful. Since I don't eat beef or pork this was a great option at a burger joint. My daughter had the onion rings and wings and she like them both. The wife had the Spanish beef burger and she loved the flavor and spice. Son had the smash burger, he always eats burgers when we go out. We call him burger boy because he eats them so much. He said it was average. He said Johnny boy smash burger was a bit better. He had that the day before. The girls love that there was boba. I loved that there was beer on tap! I was going to say there's nothing negative to say about this place. But then I thought about it for a second. They charged us $1 for some ranch. Even though we ordered chicken wings, onion rings, garlic fries, french fries, cajun fries. Should have came with the order!“

“Love the food and the community!!“

“Takes a while to come out but it’s worth it!“

“Atmosphere, customer service, prices and the freaking food is amazing 😍. Highest rated casual dining from Hayward to Vallejo! For good reason! This is a must if in the area. We will be back!“

“Amazingly great food. This is one of those gems that make a neighborhood. Attached to a gas station, but dont let that fool you, this is one of those truck-driver diaspora bodegas where they sell excellent Halal food for the many muslim drivers who need Halal foos along their route.“

“Dude. It's In-n-Out. What more can I say? Just Do It!“

“Good selection with a lot of options and they don't disappoint. It was my son's 1st time and he loved it‼️“

“Nations has always been our go-to spot for amazing burgers, and today’s visit was no exception. We came in fully expecting to enjoy one of their classic, delicious burgers—and that’s exactly what we got.
What really made this visit stand out, though, was the service. Joanna, Herry, and Miguel were incredibly welcoming and made sure everything was just right from start to finish. Our food was cooked perfectly to order, and their attention to detail truly showed.
The food is what keeps us coming back, but the exceptional service is what makes us choose the Nations at the bottom of the hill every time. A great experience all around—we’ll definitely be back!“

“The BEST burger plave I've tired in the BayArea, by farrrr. I got the Bigi'Western combo with onion rings, wings and a milkshake. The burger was so juicy and delicious and the mango habenero wings were really good. This is my new go to spot for either wings or a burger. Highlyyyyy recommend. Everyone I've put on, loves it.“

“I love Nations but it really pisses me off that the Management doesn't allow the employees to have a tip jar of every little bit helps especially now and it's not like they pay great either just average, but I did see a Giant Help Wanted sign in the window, hmmm I wonder why?“

“I was this morning at this location and I ordered me a two egger breakfast with French toast and I can say that the food was delicious but the French toast was the best French toast I ever ate.
Very great customer service provided by Tammy thanks ti the cook Marcos for cooking my breakfast very good .“

“Every time I come back to visit my hometown, family and friends I stop in and get their delicious burger!!! I’ve been going there since I was a little kid and I’m so thankful they’re still there and the burgers are still as good as I remember ❤️“

“Stopped in on Christmas Eve and had amazing burgers, fried mushrooms, and some great shakes (the mocha was something else). While we wish the mushrooms had been been a larger order, the large fries were definitely large and worth it. It's a classic burger joint, sharing a parking lot with the tire center. When we were there, a flock of turkeys walked past. Friendly crew and we love supporting small businesses like this. We will definitely stop there again. Highly recommended.“

“I love coming to this nations design burger in San Pablo California. They treat me so great. I eat here almost every night. There’s a waitress named Laura her and her friends. They are always so nice to Tito. My name is Tito and I thank you guys very much.“

“TAME [Original] Taramis“

“I had an absolutely fantastic experience with the customer service team! Kristine truly went above and beyond with her exceptional skills. She’s all about getting things done efficiently behind the register, and her professionalism left a lasting impression on me! You go girl! Thank you“

“Great place for breakfast. I had a 3 egg breakfast. Boring toast, but it's a diner, and the breakfast was perfectly cooked. My buddy had a burger, really substantial, and the fries were fantastic. Skin on, cooked to perfection. Decent portions, prompt friendly service, reasonable pricing. Will be back.“

“Awesomely cheap tasty burgers and yummy seasoned fries. Quick service overall super great. There is no place to sit and eat or even really sit and wait. But the wait is never long. They usually clean out the milkshake machine, maybe even an hour prior to closing.“

“Came here to watch the Super Bowl. It was packed and hard to find a seat, but the food and service was great. They make a good burger and their milkshakes are tempting. The patties get a nice smashing to it. Good vibes, good burgers! There seemed to be plenty of street parking!“

“OG Burger on Solano is absolutely worth the stop. I asked the gentleman behind the counter what he would order for himself, and he recommended the double bulgogi burger. I told him to make it the way he would for himself, and it came out dialed in.

What stood out is that it was not a standard American smashburger. Instead of the usual profile, it leaned into Korean fusion flavors. The bulgogi added a deep, savory sweetness that worked perfectly with the crispy smashed patties. It felt intentional and different in a good way.

He gave me a light sauce on the side that paired extremely well. I did not catch the name, but it had a vinaigrette style tang that balanced the richness of the meat and brought everything together.

I also ordered the loaded fries, and they were just as strong. As far as smashburger spots go, this one separates itself by doing something different and doing it well. I would definitely have it again.“

“I got the double cheeseburger and fries.
It was made fresh to order with sizable portion of fries and packaged neatly with little to no mess unwrapping it all. The location is great and central to a lot of other options but im glad I made my way here. Next time I want to try the Persian burger!
The girl at the counter was really nice too!“

“I have heard about this restaurant from friends so I went to try it, it is a sit-eat-and-go place I have tried the Persian burger and it taste good it looks like a kafta kabab taste. As a Lebanese and food lover I was impressed with the hummus the taste was good but the Tabboule didn’t meet my expectations because you shouldn’t have cucumber and lettuce as also it needs more lemon juice.
It was a nice experience, and I would go again if got the chance.“

“Amazing staff and teh best burger in town!“

“Great burger. More like Australian style, kind of like a smash burger, using juicy cuts of meat and cooking well done and crispy. Tallow also makes the potato fries taste amazing. If you are looking for fries that taste like an English fish and chip shop, and burgers that taste like Australian burgers, this is the place!“

“If you know you know. Nations is the is the go to spot for your late night cravings. The ladies working there are always kind and welcoming. The burger, 🍔 fries 🍟 and especially the strawberry 🍓 shake is a must. They’re known for their pies 🥧 also.“

“We had the Voodoo and the Moroccan burgers at the restaurant and they were great! The curly fries were crispy and tasty. The owner, Kamran, came by our table and chatted with us, which was a really nice touch. He was super friendly and welcoming. Overall, it was a great experience and we’ll definitely be back!“

“Food was yummy, service was great, vibe was chill“

“Burger delicious customer service was beyond poor. The cashier didn't smile or say thank you. I had questions and didn't even ask in fear of being snapped on. He was extremely rude and seems like just to women. Men came in and he smiled ans talked to them . I needed ketchup I asked please he threw it on the counter and didn't say nothing. Maybe san jose location is better ... poor service will make me never visit this location again“

“Great “mini” burger but mini is a misnomer“

“Definitely my favorite place for Chicago style hotdogs and hamburgers in Solano County. The polish with grilled onions is the best and you can take it into Cullen's Pub next door so you can have it with a beer on-tap. Seating both inside and outside with plenty of free parking on the streets of downtown Benicia. Don't forget the french fries.“

“Great burgers and curly fries! Clean and well spaced tables.“

“My sister and I just had a couple of Cali Alley burgers delivery and these things are good! Next time I'm in Berkeley, I will definately order again.“

“This is the best place to eat in the Bay... yes I'm biased lol. I've loved this place since going to Richmond HS, service is unmatched, great people and the food is absolutely amazing. Go you you a mushroom steak hoagie.. I'm going today“

“We stopped here while on a trip from Nebraska. We had been in the car all day and we were starving and looking for a place to eat. We stopped here and it was so freaking good! Handmade and large portions. It definitely hit the spot and Ali, our server, was so polite and patient. He was professional and super friendly. Great place to eat!!“

“Not many vegetarian options, but the one you have is the best ever🤩“

“Strong cider, strong playlist, staffed by legends.“

“It's a great little spot for quick bite. They have good burgers and fries. They also have hot dogs, chicken strips, chicken sandwiches, chili fries, chocolate dipped ice-cream and much more. My favorite item is the twister. I get the Resses cup one but they have many other flavors. My daughter loves their sundaes. It's a little pricey but for me it's worth it.“

“Very nice cozy breakfast-lunch café. Most items on the menu have special gourmet touches. They offer a LOT of choices! Staff is really friendly and welcoming. I have been going there since yesterday! I highly recommend!“

“So I have the cheeseburger and garlic fries. The garlic is not just a powdered sprinkled on it is actually handmade and put on the fries it is phenomenal. And the amount of fries they give you wow they're just over the top. The cheeseburger that I got had real beef. Not the stuff you see at McDonald's this is real beef like what you buy at your own barbecue at home. A cheeseburger and fry filled me up. The fries were crispy and not limpy like most other restaurants. When coming here you're going to get a quality meal. I'm going to be coming back here I hope you will too.“

“1111 Solano is a new location for this restaurant. Previously near Craneway and before the pandemic in Point Richmond. Same chef, same staff, and same excellent food and service.“
