50 Best Burger Restaurants near Laguna Beach

“we are visiting and just happened upon this little spot for a quick lunch. the service is top notch and the burgers are amazing!“

“I visited here in late May 2024. This is WAY better than the old taco shop that was here. I had the Smashburger and fries. Burger was huge and is honestly the best burger I’ve ever had in Orange County…seriously! Fries were awesome. Employees were super nice. This place is a gem and I’ll be back!!!“

“I used to live in Santa Barbara and am a huge fan of Finney’s. Tried Laguna one for the first time.
Service and vibe are very nice but food was bad.
Chicken and waffle taste like precook and coconut shrimp isn’t seasoned. Pizza dough was very dry but taco was excellent.“

“The food is very tasty, good presentation! delicious 😋“

“wonderful staff! enthusiastic personnel“

“The food and environment is wonderful, don’t miss it! We will be back!“

“Absolutely beautiful ocean view from your table“

“I highly recommend In n Out Burger. I love their burgers, fries and Root Beer when I go. But why can't I get a burger well-done late night? With the patties nice and thin, I should never bite into a burger that's red or pink inside. I even tell them to burn it a little bit. But that doesn't change a thing. I'm not going to stop eating here. I'll just aim for earlier when not at a peak rush with a long line. Wish me luck!“

“Burger as its best! you get what you expect. Friendly staff and super clean restaurant!“

“You guys were absolutely awesome today and I appreciate the safety protocol up in the restaurant due to Covid and the mask policy! I will definitely come back again! Fabulous food and service! ❤“

“it was amazing the cheeseburger and animal fries phenonemol 😋“

“I'm pretty sure I started levitating the minute I tried the milkshake it's literally the best one I've ever had in my life. And the fries..PERFECTLY SALTED. I don't think I've ever had such a spiritual experience at a burgers place but there's a first for everything. Definitely recommend!!!!!!!!“

“I ate lunch on a weekday there and there were no open tables as it's a pretty small restaurant. The cheeseburger and fries were soooo yummy, though. I highly recommend stopping by, but be prepared to take your food to go. I walked the 1-2 blocks to the Marina and ate there.“

“Only place in San Diego county I feel like you can get a proper breakfast burrito. Ten out of ten.“

“I would recommend the whole menu honestly and the customer service is amazing especially from Jennifer.. I am a regular and have recommended this place to so many already. Give it a try!“

“Loved my experience here. Our group of three came in just after noon, peak lunchtime. The woman at the counter thoughtfully offered ice for my bottled drink, and took our orders efficiently and kindly. Our food was ready quickly, and was fantastic (the bacon cheeseburger was especially delicious).

I can’t speak to the drive thru experience, but dining in was an all around pleasant experience. The place was clean and comfortable, there were a fair number of people there, and it certainly exceeded my expectations.“

“Got a few delicious hamburgers and onion rings. They have delicious milkshakes and zucchini fries as well. Just what my family needed for the car trip home. We left with full tummies and decided to leave them a nice review. Thank you for serving the food so fast and fresh hot. We will for sure be coming back through here when in the area again. I can see why the locals suggest coming here for a quick bite to eat. Would recommend bringing an appetite as an order of onion rings are huge“

“The best fast food and service in this area! This family-owned business is what the American dream is about. I tried breakfast and dinner, and both meals exceeded expectations! I will revisit this establishment again!

Parking: Plenty of free parking.“

“A's has the Best breakfast burritos and there lunch is also fantastic“

“Omg the food. 1st time in and I’ll definitely be back. Loved the outdoor seating option.“

“Heather at this location is so helpful and warm to each greets she sees. She looks out for people who have families and brings their order to them. The overall service from all employees at this location is wonderful. Food is fresh and delectable every time.

Kid-friendliness: Great quality and prices. Sticker books are cute too!“

“I love this place! I am on an anti-inflammatory diet and this is one of the few places I can eat. Double bonus - they serve grass fed beef, which is the only beef I can have. Their burgers are one of the best I have ever had. My personal favorite is the California Burger. It is amazing!

Dietary restrictions: They have grass fed beef, which is perfect for anti-inflammatory diet.“

“This place is quite nice. It can accommodate more diners than one might initially think. In addition, they have outdoor heaters for those who like to dine outdoors. The food here is very tasty, the portions are ample, and it's not too expensive.“

“Do you want to feel better? Maybe try Vegetarian food and not even be aware you’re trying it? Like nice people? Change your life for the better and come here.

Vegetarian options: My doctor knew about vibe and highly recommended because they have a good selection. It’s hard to make up your mind — especially if you’re hungry.

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free banana bread. Absolutely delicious. I love feeling my brain is being fed after eating something deemed dessert.

Kid-friendliness: People who work here are aware. They like all their customers and strive to please them. Seating is available outdoors and comfy booths indoors. Come a little bit during off times if you don’t want to stand in line too long.“

“Food was awesome! Husband got a mushroom swiss burger and said it was amazing ... daughter had a side of Mac and Cheese which she loved and it wasn't a box kraft like some restaurants try to do. I had tomato soup and it was creamy and not to acidic! Yum!
Service was pretty none existent since u order on a machine and then go uo can get your own food after the buzzer and tables we were able to find pretty well on a Sunday afternoon.
Overall great experience“

“Ok, so first up it was a bit pricey. But holy cow the burgers were all amazing, the place was clean, staff was wonderful. If you want ridiculously tasty burgers and don't mind paying for it... I'll give this place 5/5 stars for sure.“

“I enjoyed the delicious Lavender Matcha Latte with oat milk. I tried their Furikake avocado toast with sliced eggs and tomatoes. Splendid taste! Nice presentation. Both visits to this cafe & pie shop have been enjoyable. The workers have been super helpful and responsive to serve great meals.“

“I like this place but the menu is kinda weird
I ordered a hamburger COMBO and when my food arrived . I ask for a drink and it doesn’t come with it. So I ended up paying for my drink (I don’t mind) but I thought it be included in my COMBO. Service is mediocre“

“Food here is amazing! Had amazing service. We're from canada and come down to California for two weeks every November. We have now decided that this will be added to our yearly traditions! Wonderful family owned business which is lovely to see. Everyone here cares about your experience and the quality of food. Cannot wait to come back!“

“Great location right on the beach, wonderful staff and the food was excellent. We had five different items from their lunch menu all of which were excellent. My favorite was their Ahi Poke Bowl. Our server Alexis took great care of everyone at our table. Cocktails were great also. Thanks for a great afternoon and we will see you soon.“

“I walked in, and I was greeted by the manager and staff. The dining area was very clean and kept I ordered my food and it was promptly made just as I ordered The food was delicious and the manager even came out to check how our food tasting. Overall, it was the best experience I’ve ever had at any Tommy’s !!! Thank you Lake forest Tommy’s“

“Husband and I went there last night during Haunt Hopping in Santa Ana -- and WOW!! Absolutely delicious, filling burgers and crispiest, hottest fries! Very friendly service. Hoping they open some locations near us, but until then, we'll make special trips -- they're that good!“

“Great customer service. Well oiled machine. Friendly staff. Great food. Attentive manager. 1/30/2021, 3pm“

“Nachos fries - wicked awesome.“

“Matt, Michelle, and sons have been winning over the hearts of many locals and travelers like my wife and I for ten years. The ambiance and beautifully designed facilities boasts a spacious interior and exterior accommodations for cozy couples to larger groups. An amazing and diverse menu with a great wine, beer, and craft cocktails selection can exceed even the most particular palate. Personal recommendations include the prime rib or tomahawk steak champagne brunch or the terrific eggs Benedict. The chicken and waffles also became a fan favorite. The burgers are scrumptious and the fish is phenomenal. The steaks and... okay, everything is worth a try. (Don't forget to try some of their own homemade salsa with the appropriate menu items. They have many other homemade products available so give them a try). Just when you thought it couldn't get better. Matt has an outdoor extension project in progress that will accommodate additional bar, dining and music venue. This is hands down my favorite restaurant in California. Hoping that it becomes yours too! Cheers“

“This was my first time there. The burger and fries were pretty good. The lady putting the orders out wasn't that friendly. We got a text that our food was ready and went up to get it, and she said "no, I'll call your number out when it's ready." Kind of insinuating we were stupid for coming up for the order... when we were texted to do so. Anyway, not a big deal, but she didn't have to have an attitude about it.“

“Come try it out! Santa Barbara Char and Chicken Club are my all time favorite“

“Great food as always. Only been 12 years since my last one. lol“

“It's a great place I had to try it twice to make sure it was like the first time! I like my burgers rare and exactly how I wanted it! Very rarely do I find a place that will make the food how you ask! I'll be going there more often for sure“

“Store manager, manager assistant and all their crew members very nice, friendly always greet 😀 you with smile on their face. Dining room, restrooms, fountain ⛲️ drinks and counter very clean. I ordered a Barbiecue chicken 🐔 combo at lunch time ⏲️ and I enjoyed it.“

“I haven’t been disappointed when I crave a cheat burger, fries (and tots!) and drink. This place gives it to you messy, like those old Carls Jr. commercials, and I love every bit of the cheeze and sauce all over my face. I try and order something new every time bc it’s all good.“

“Been a while but drove 20 miles up PCH to have a meal here after 7 years.“

“Great atmosphere with great service. Loved how an entire team look out for you from the greeting to the end.“

“I've recently had the pleasure of indulging in one of the chef's mouthwatering burgers, and it was an absolute delight from the first bite to the last. I’ve been wanting to try a new burger place and this restaurant had my keen interest. As soon as I received my food i was immediately struck by how the flavors were perfectly balanced, with each ingredient shining through in every mouthful. The juicy patty, cooked to perfection, paired impeccably with the fresh, crisp vegetables and the irresistible sauce that tied it all together. I went up to the counter and asked the employee at the front desk if i could see the staff who made my burger. Why…it was just a kid. A kid who made a difference in my life. I gave him my compliments and asked him to come work with me, but the young gentleman refused. “I don’t do this for the money..” he says so fondly “I do this to advocate for the chefs all around the world..” Chef Ramsey would be proud of this adolescent advocate. If only i had gotten his name…“

“Fabulous food and cool interior“

“Their food is always delicious!! My fav is the teriyaki char burger & sweet potato fries are the bomb“

“🙂Excellent Door Dash option for our little upstate NY town!“

“Well. I Love Red Robin So Much. My Girlfriend Julie & I Love To Go Out To Dinner With Her. We Like To Wear Fancy Formal Outfits & My Shoes & Her Dresses & Her Heels. Jeremy & I Love Food Delivery In Doordash. & I Love Clucks & Fries & Extra Steak Fries So Much.“
