50 Best Burger Restaurants near Pacific Palisades

“This is a lovely cafe for lunch and/or coffee. There staff is very friendly and helpful accommodating our requests for additional salad dressing. However it closes at 3pm, at which time you can no longer refill your fountain drinks. The view and the ambiance is absolutely amazing. The outdoor seating areas are well spaced out and shaded. The Villa Burger is a good balance of gruyere cheese, beef patty, Arugula, onion jam and brioche bun. Three garlic fries are perfectly seasoned with garlic and parsley. The Market Salad with apple, quinoa and chicken is generous and well dressed with shallot vinaigrette. The prices are definitely 10-20% higher but the ambiance is worth it.“

“Everyone that works there is great! They greet me by name, a little chit-chat- it's a great neighborhood store. They have crammed in almost everything you might need at a last minute, but don't want to go to a grocery store for. We LOVE their hamburgers and wish they sold them all day and night! They have a great hidden wine corner, beer, mixers, liquor, dairy, snacks etc.“

“A nice little beach snack shack. Convenient but prices are ⬆️ . I expected some seating inside like most cafes offer. Just a couple of tables and uncomfortable chairs along with 2 concrete benches (that could use a power wash) outside in the sand. I got the veggie burger which was delicious for $10, which is exact same price as their deluxe bacon cheeseburger and turkey burger. I appreciate having a vegetarian option, which is unusual for a food stand vendor at the beach. Bring your own water. They charge $5 a bottle.

Vegetarian options: Veggie burger was very tasty! Limited vegetarian options for sandwiches.

Parking: $6 for all day. Parking charge until 8:30. Not sure if they close off the parking lot after 8:30.“

“Great food first time being there!“

“I keep going back to this place, and usually try something new. Every single dish is delicious. This place is owned and run by people who love to eat fresh, nutritious, delicious food. And it shows. 100% recommend“

“The food and the atmosphere are AMAZING“

“excellent service. very rich“

“I can't say enough good things about Jeff's gourmet. The food is fresh, well prepared, tasty, generous portions, reasonably priced for L.A. - Fast deliveries and always care to include napkins and forks. Really a wonderful restaurant. Thank you“

“Animal style burgers !!!!!“

“Today I stopped by In-N-Out Burger in Sherman Oaks, and it reminded me why this place remains one of California’s most beloved burger chains. Despite the steady line of customers, everything moved quickly and efficiently. The staff was energetic, friendly, and seemed genuinely happy to help.

I ordered my usual meal, found a seat, and within a few minutes I was enjoying a fresh burger made to order. The vegetables tasted crisp, the burger was hot and juicy, and the ingredients felt noticeably fresher than what you’ll find at most fast-food restaurants. The fries came out hot and fresh as well, exactly how they should be.

What I appreciate about In-N-Out is that they don’t try to be something they’re not. The menu is simple, the food is consistent, and they focus on doing a few things exceptionally well. In a world where many restaurants constantly chase trends, there’s something refreshing about a place that sticks to its formula and continues to deliver.

The Sherman Oaks location was clean, well-managed, and busy for a reason. You can tell that people keep coming back because they know exactly what they’re going to get: fresh food, friendly service, and good value.

There are plenty of burger places in Los Angeles, but every now and then a visit to In-N-Out reminds me why it has earned such a loyal following. A simple meal done right is sometimes better than anything complicated.“

“Nice place 😋😎 fast service 👌“

“absolutely delicious burgers and sauce. the customer service and people working there where really nice and great people“

“It’s brand new and clean. The staff are super friendly and very helpful. It’s a very comfortable environment with electrical outlets and USB ports for your electronic devices. And the food! Best turkey burger I’ve had in the South Bay and those brussels sprouts are to die for. Go! Quickly! 😬❤️😬“

“Delicious, a wonderful experience and loved the waitress!“

“Yummy food. Always our stops all the way from Chicago“

“I love how everyone is smiling and friendly. Food was great, restaurant was spotless and staff was great! Thank you 🌺“

“biscuits “sent from heaven” Keyshia Cole voice Stopped by John O’Groats for some pre archery lesson fuel. Off rip, I knew it was gonna be bomb because my boyfriend actually has great taste and recommended it. I mean why would I date him otherwise? But I still had to be the one to taste it to believe it. Those biscuits put them on the MAP! I had lost faith in biscuits & gravy in this city. I have been let down time and time again because it was so weak. But these gave me hope for the future 🥹 I could see this place being my breakfast new normal. So if you ever want to stop by there, hit me up beforehand and we can brunch together🫶🏼🍽️ this is the type of place I would have FOMO over“

“This place was absolutely amazing. Probably the best burger I have had in LA. Perfectly crispy smash burger and fries.

I got the classic burger combo and added lettuce, tomato, chopped chilies, and mustard. It's hard to impress me with a burger but this place absolutely blew me away.“

“This is a hidden gem in the Valley, i love smash burgers and I will go out of my way to try a place and they really have something good going on.
I ordered their Choppy Joe combo with light Chili’s and pickles, a must try.
I had a chat with Armand after eating as it was late and they were about to close, he know what he is doing.“

“Solid burgers and hot dogs. Very straightforward and friendly staff and owner. They get it done. Onion rings and a burger with an orange bang. That’s my order. 16 bucks and the rest for tip.

I’m here once a week. But this week I was here three times.“

“Delicioso!!!!! Muy recomendado“

“Absolutely brilliant place. Fantastic staff (Katy) who is lovely. Brilliant atmosphere and well worth visiting for a drink when in Venice“

“Been waiting to try this Korean fried chicken place out. Went with a group of 4. Everyone agreed it was excellent, delicious spicy fried chicken. Prices were good for the quality and portion sizes. Everyone said they would come back - and bring their other friends. Great food option in the neighborhood.“

“Clean and delicious comfort food. Amazing service. In a time of degrading quality and processed food overwhelm, this is a refreshing solution. Here it’s possible to have the comfort foods you love without added chemicals, toxic oils, or low quality ingredients. It’s a win all the way around.“

“Excellent food and service. Thank you!“

“Best burger ever. Period.“

“Animal style burgers !!!!!“

“Ok so this is going to be a new thing for me, eating foods from a non traditional restaurant and my goodness I found a banger.

Frankin it Up. Let's start it the first category
Parking. Have to be honest here and say Parking is a nightmare tight streets /alleys
Only Parking on one side of the street. Its a mess but if you cant get dropped off plan to struggle alot to find parking. .5/10

The atmosphere is reminiscent of hanging out at a buddies house for a BBQ, but instead of having over cooked dried food because the cook has been cooking like crap for years. I got the pleasure of watching someone who is good at what they do and it happens be so delightful and delicious that its refreshing to experience it first hand.

The service was far beyond what I expected.
When I got there the owner, I believe his mane was or is Jeff, wasnt there his neighbor came out and asked me if youre waiting for Jeff, I answered why yes, yes I am. He then informed he that he got in the pool. Now when I tell you that I had the biggest laugh just to hear that the owner left his post and took a splash to cool down, I immediately knew this was the place to be. The neighbor told me he'll be out in 5 or 10 minutes and informed me that I could wait at the tables or in my car either way hes coming out. The service alone 100/10

Now let's get to the food.
You'd think frankin it Up would be a hot dog spot and you'd be partially correct Jeff did start with hotdogs but according to him that market is too saturated, so thats why he decided to use his 40+years of cooking in the restaurant industry to switch over and do burgers, wagu burgers. Me and my partner ordered the WCW and the Big Wag. Both came with grilled onions cherry tomatoes pickles and a burger sauce the only difference is that the WCW has bacon. The burgers were cooked to absolute perfection 100/10

Lets wrap this review up. Jason kelsey said this was the best burger spot in LA and id have to agree hands down. Frankin it Up 9.8/10“

“Country Kitchen is a great spot for a delicious and satisfying meal in Malibu. The food was fresh, flavorful, and well prepared, and the service was friendly and welcoming. The relaxed atmosphere made it a comfortable place to enjoy a meal with family or friends. Overall, a wonderful dining experience and definitely worth visiting!“

“Love the burgers and sushi.“

“How does Father‘s Office only get 4.3 stars? This is my dream bar (not that I dream about bars): warm, intimate, unpretentious, truly awesome food offerings, and then of course there is the beer. In LA, for beer, there is no peer.

To those entitled and aggrieved victims of life’s indignities, i.e. commenters who faulted FO because of what is clearly spelled out on the menu:
NO KETCHUP
NO DOGS, EXCEPT FOR SERVICE ANIMALS.
WE DO NOT PERMIT ANY SUBSTITUTIONS OR MODIFICATIONS TO ANY OF OUR MENU ITEMS.
- then please be aware that there are plenty of other bars for you to hang out in until hopefully, eventually, you reach adulthood.“

“Great food . I do love a tasty burger“

“Highest quality wagyu and pastrami .
I tasted and my relatives did.

Best part is halal and meat quality that blends superbly.
Workers are well behaved

Good vibes and outside its marina del rey.
Free parking but gotta validate“

“I'm visiting from Japan, and a local recommended this place to us. It was perfect for our family with kids, especially with the beach so close by. The restrooms were also very clean. We really enjoyed our visit and would love to come back again!“

“This is a fan favorite at work! So far one of the best burgers in the Valley, highly recommended!“

“First time visiting Ray’s on the River, and it definitely won’t be my last. The atmosphere was great, the service was excellent, and the food truly stood out. I had a steak that was probably one of the best I’ve ever had—perfectly cooked and full of flavor. An all-around fantastic experience, and I’m already looking forward to going back.“

“Truck driver here. Was delivering nearby and saw this place was in walking distance. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND. Fast service and courteous staff. Glad I tried it.“

“Beautiful day to sit outside“

“Another INCREDIBLE DOUBLE PATTY SMASHBURGER WITH FRIES !!

“Great LA experience in the heart of West Hollywood!“

“The Apple Pan is one of those places that just gets it right. Great burgers, zero fuss and the same old-school vibe that’s kept people coming back for decades. Grab a burger, save room for pie, and you’ll understand why it’s an LA classic.“

“very good food and good service.“

“excellent service. very rich“

“Nice staff. But a bit of flies problem at the outdoor dining area ...“

“since 1973. the best, the greatest,anytime of day, night, after midnite“

“Angel at this IHOP made my California visit worth revisiting my favorite breakfast destination. She made up for a prior unsatisfactory experience at home which made me rethink my choices. She served my friend and I with a smile and she did everything an experience worth mentioning. She restored my trust in IHOP.“

“I had a fantastic experience at Burger Lounge and I have to start by giving a shout-out to Miguel!

The moment my buddy and I walked in, Miguel greeted us and made us feel welcome. He was courteous, professional, attentive and just had that kind of attitude that makes you feel like your business is genuinely appreciated. He also brought our food out to us and made sure we were taken care of.

I ordered the Lounge Burger with Tallow Fries and a drink while my buddy ordered the Classic Burger in a lettuce wrap. I'll admit, Burger Lounge is a little on the pricey side but once I tasted the food, I understood why. The grass-fed beef was absolutely delicious. You can genuinely taste the difference. My burger was fresh, juicy, flavorful and cooked perfectly. Nothing overly complicated just quality ingredients prepared really well.

And those Tallow Fries... oh boy. 😂 They were incredible! Fresh, crispy, flavorful and easily some of the best fries I've had in a while. Sometimes simple food done exceptionally well is exactly what hits the spot, and that's what this meal was.

Between the quality of the food and Miguel's excellent service, this was a great experience from beginning to end. Yes, you'll spend a little more than you would at a typical burger place but you're also getting noticeably better quality. Fresh ingredients, grass-fed beef, amazing fries and genuinely great customer service. I'll definitely be coming back.

And Miguel, thank you for taking such good care of us!“

“Max is the man!! Ty for the great service!!“

“Found this gem on our way to Ventura. Very very good! Fresh and great selection. Yummmm“

“This is a nice place pretty good food very friendly service. It wasn’t until my second visit after receiving and eating my food that I noticed on my way out the C in the window.. I almost passed out 😵. I didn’t get sick or anything. I just usually would absolutely never eat anywhere that has a C in the window. I hope they get that worked out because besides that it is a nice stop for breakfast or lunch.“
