Not your burger and fries for $5.00 chain burger quality or price. But if you lived in the 50s drive in days this is your destination. The L.A. Burger…

easily the best bacon cheese burger in town. hand made patties. great bun. fried onions. tried the fish n chips once. the batter got soggy so it kinda sucked but the fish was still kinda saffrony tasting and flavorful.
Big disappointment ! Way too much bread for the amount of meat you get. Ordered Fanta in glass bottle, not even cold. Owner thought that was funny. Ordered a Coke instead and had to pay another $3.00 for a drink. Definitely not the best burger in B.C.As for service, I would say it also rates a 2
Driving by thinking of eating at this place for a long time. Over the years hands have changed. I finally got to give this place a try. For $8.50 I feel I could of spent my money elsewere. The bun is way too big for the burger. I don’t recommend this place for the quality and price. Way too much sauce as well. The burger tasted like a normal burger. That’s a good sign.
The workers and manager were kind of butt heads. I was really expecting more since a lot of my buds were talking about it so much. Not too impressed…
Overpriced and disappointing!! Milkshakes tasted freezer burnt, burger buns were dry and too large. Spend over $40 for family of four and no one finished their meal. Kids hot dog was a smokie style on a flavored bun, not great for picky eaters
Lost. I have tried this place several times through the years after it was a well loved hot spot for car culture outcasts and thier machines. Sadly it never has been any good since its heyday and heck back then the food was after all always better at Wally’s . My wife and I ventured in a month or so ago. The place has had a lot of paint put on it theres new signage and Wierd photos of things that look kind of like burgers. The thing is these photos don’t really look appetizing and well I put that aside ordered a king burger the wife decided to order the fish and chips. The owner seemed very confident about his product being a premium offering . I became somewhat suspicious once he explained he used homemade buns he picked up from a local bakery each day. I’m not really sure but,I think home made kind is supposed to mean its in house made so I was a bit confused, the wife also ordered a lemonade that was pretty expensive . This was a tip off of what was yet to come. The lemonade was odd too start it wasn’t cold and it was extremely sour . Yeah so…. I have pretty high expectations when I spend this much for a burger and fries. Let’s say the fries with the burger weren’t bad. They were a slight on the soggy side but they were fresh. The burger on the other hand well the homemade picked up at the bakery every morning bun was kind of stale. I’m not sure what kind of bun it was exactly but it wasn’t really akin to any hamburger bun I’ve ever had it was chibattaish . Not that it’s a bad thing but not sure what cues the owner took coming up with this burger. It was just flat out odd. The beef was ok. It seemed lean enough but it didn’t have much taste. I like a burger where there is definition between it’s components but comes across as it’s own unique self. This missed the mark entirely. I mean I’d expect for this money it’d be better than big six or the now defunct burger burger. It was not even on the same block as either of them. I was put off. But wait….. There’s more. The wife’s fish and chips was absolutely positively shockingly appallingly horrid. 1 the portion size was ludicrously small for the price. Secondly if you are going to offer something on your menu putting your own spin on its fine but this is called lost in the fifties right. So you kind of lead the customer to believe its going to be a homage to classic diner food. This fish was not cooked properly for one thing. The batter seems more like pakora batter unlike any thing I’ve ever had before. Secondly I’m unsure why but the fries with this dish were so so soggy almost like the fryer had been turned on and the food tossed in to cook as it warmed up. I’m unsure if you noticed we left pretty put off. The fish and chips left pretty much untouched . When asked how it was and I said the fries were ok it should have taken as a cue to ask or look what was left behind. So despite the spiel given us I was extremely unimpressed. For the price this perhaps ranks in the top ten worst dinning experiences I’ve had in the lower mainland. I mean everyone can have a bad day everyone can make a mistake . I won’t make this one again.
Went there today and the staff are very friendly and the owner gave me the run down on all their products as it was my first time visiting. I had a bacon cheeseburger and fries and it was very good. I would definitely recommend this place.
