Place was quiet at lunch time on a Tuesday. The food slapped. I also got a pineapple freeze, which I do recommend.

It was a cloudy Tuesday afternoon when my partner and I realized we craved a burger. Thus, we made our way out to Maverick Jack’s. Because the restaurant was pretty much empty at noon, I was a little worried about whether it would be any good, but it ended up being great. Our server was Riccardo, and based on his recommendations we ordered the Runaway Freight, Irish Nacho Fries, and a coke float. Everything we tried was delicious. The burger was nice and juicy, but a little too sweet. The fries were delicious, but the melted cheese on top just ends up cooling into a hard layer. Something like a cheese sauce would make a lot more sense in this way. The coke float was also great, but needed a larger soda to soft serve ratio. Overall though I really enjoyed my time here, even if there are little things that could be improved recipe wise.

I went to buy a burger with my niece. It was $52 for two cheeseburgers. They didn’t put cheese on the burgers we waited 45 minutes for a hamburger. They were raw in sight and cold. They were too busy talking to each other. People are waiting for their food. We ended up leaving our burgers there. very bad service food terrible I don’t understand how they would be able to get a five star or 4 1/2 star did I just go on a bad day when I was walking in there was a lady and I said I’ll never come back here that should’ve been assigned to turn around and leave but I went anyway terrible

How can you get a cheeseburger with no cheese on it?😢

The location is great. The menu is average.
The prices are way too steep.
I went to Maverick Jack's because I was starving. I didn't have much money but enough for a burger. I decided to order off the kids menu. Two sliders with fries were $10.00. I realized as I was deciding what to order that lettuce, tomato and dressing cost extra. What?? Seriously?? I ordered anyway and I got 2 sliders on 2 buns and French fries. No lettuce, no tomato and no good. I couldn't believe how little I got for as much as it cost. No way I'm going back there.

The food is consistently good. Service is usually very good. We had a bad waitress once. It seemed like she didn't want to be a waitress at all. Hope she found a better job that suits her.

We’ve been here once previously and wanted to try it out again for a date night and we were not disappointed! First of all parking was ample in their parking lot or you can park on El Camino. We went on a Friday night at around 5:30 and they were pretty busy inside and with plenty of take out orders. However we were seated right away. Server was friendly and gave us time to look over menu. We ordered fried pickles with a dipping sauce as an appetizer and they were yummy. We leisurely ate them enjoying the tangy flavor. Shortly after we finished our burger and chicken club came out. Really good flavor! Of course fries were crunchy and tasty too! Spent about 50 minutes there and during that time constant flow of customers from couples all ages to families with children! Fun evening! Personable, helpful, and conscientious staff too! Definitely would return! Check them out!

Food was delicious, fairly priced, and service was great. Excellent vegetarian options. We are not usually picky but I was pleasantly surprised when our waitress asked if we wanted our fries cooked in separate soy oil instead of beef tallow.

Runaway Freight is the way to go! So so good! I also had the onion rings instead of the fries and I would definitely recommend!!! Crispy, tasty, and delicious!
