Recently in Ladera Ranch, we found this place had great outdoor seating with plenty of shade. The drink menu was phenomenal and the burger and patty melt we ordered was awesome. We definitely visit this place again based on the service, the food and atmosphere.

Very tasty burger restaurant. Super friendly service.

Dietary restrictions: Since I have celiac disease, I was immediately offered a gluten-free bun.

Parking: You can park very well behind the house for free.

Amazing burger and the best French fries I’ve ever had. 10/10 I recommend if you’re in the area. Criminally underrated.

Vegetarian options: Impossible burger was really good.
