What can I say, I love this place! My Grandma lived three doors down and I grew up eating here. The food is delicious and mostly unchanged from my childhood. Highly recommend!

Burger Bar – A Certified Hood Classic
Welcome back to another episode of Trash Dining, where we dive deep into the greasy underbelly of comfort food—and today’s feature is none other than a San Jose staple: Burger Bar.
Five burgers with cheese and relish maybe for $12. Yes, you heard that right. But a word of advice—don’t call the takeout lady and ask for “five orders of bags of burgers.” She’ll kindly correct you. Just say you want one order.
Now the burger? Imagine a Wienerschnitzel burger and a McDonald’s cheeseburger had sex and made a baby. That baby is the Burger Bar burger. (Shout out to the Pineapple Express reference—James Franco would be proud.)
The fries? Skinny, a little shoe-stringy, and can best be described as… limp. Like, “Ed couldn’t get it up” kinda limp. You get it.
But for what it is? Burger Bar is a certified hood classic. Don’t come expecting truffle aioli or wagyu anything—come for the nostalgia, the deal, and the bite of something that’s been keeping the block fed for years

these surely aren't the best burgers I've ever had. but they're cheaper and better than mcdonalds, so I commend them for that. this place will get me through the recession.

Never had this place and was excited to try it for the first time being born and raised in San Jose . I heard the burgers was good, but I didn’t get that. I got a burrito and was given a Dollar tree burrito that was put in an air fryer so it was hard as rock. 5$ for it btw. Milkshake was all right a little bitter, like milk is about to get bad, but not there yet. On top of everything the girl who took my order was wearing a mask and speaking extremely low. I don’t even know if she was responding back. She didn’t say a single thing whole time ordering or picking up my food. I even said thank you, and she didn’t say anything. I don’t know if she was mad mood but that’s how you don’t get tipped girly

Burger bar is my latest obsession. Bacon cheeseburger and a side of onion rings is my go-to order.
The fried chicken is absolutely delicious, but you have to be patient because it takes about 15-20 to make. Definitely worth the wait. Fries are always limp, I like my fries crispy. Never really thought about asking for extra crispy until this moment, but will try next time for sure.
