Palace Burgers — Restaurant in Alhambra

Sunday afternoon, dont' wanna cook and feeling too lazy to drive to IN N Out. So, i decided to look for a local burger spot that i could just pick up from. I went on google maps and found Palace Burger just 1 mile away. I didn't see any current reviews and it's a new spot for me to try out. I called them up, and order a standard double cheese burger with everything and an order of fries. The ordering experience was standard, and the person on the other line was nice. I got there i noticed a chinese food spot and a fish and chips right next door that was closed. This place looks like a mexican resturant that sold burgers, vs. a burger joint that sells mexican food. It is Southern California and mexican food sold with chinese food is not uncommon here...LOL I was greeted by the cashier and the cook/chef greeted me too. It's welcoming to have people say hi and bye, especially in a retail business. the burgers were already in the bag and the fries just left the fryer. I was thinking in my mind....mmmm double cheeseburger, what a treat for sunday. right before is stepped out the door i noticed they got the imported mexican coke and Fanta orange soda. they use real can sugar instead of that HFCS, you know what i mean. I grabbed a bottle of mexcos finest and the cook/chef said good bye. I was thinking about how nice these people are. I took the burger, fries and drinks back to my place and got ready to chow down. My first initial bite....big disappointment. the meat has no flavor, it taste like foam with meat flavoring. it's not charbroiled and don't have much attitude. the sauce is not there, it was lacking a pickle and and nice thousand island dressing. the cheese was cheesy, but overall uninspiring. the lettuce is fresh and crispy, the buns was still fresh, tomatoe was wholesome and not mushy. I finished half the burger and tossed it away. It seems like there is just no replacement for a good IN N out burger. I am assuming that their mexican food is better, because places that have bad burgers usually have good mexican food. Overall service is good, nice people, decor is plain jane and hamburger needed a lot of help. the rating of 0 is that the burger is...

I enjoyed the double cheeseburger with fries. I went there based on a recommendation from a co-worker, and then finally committed later that month after trying their delicious thousand island dipping sauce which is similar to what you might find at an In-N-Out restaurant. I noticed that they have a really full menu, including tons of breakfast options. They also have a large vat of cebollas con chile, which not only goes great on a burger, but also on a variety of other items. This local burger place with a Mexican spin, will definitely...

I had been looking for a place where I could get a really good egg sandwich any kind of breakfast sandwich and no luck by chance drove by this place. It's like a hole in the wall and thought why not I'll give it a chance and I was very very impressed. Very happy. The food was delicious. The service was great. They were very friendly and this is now my go to...
