Phyllis' Giant Burgers — Restaurant in San Rafael

Hello again friends and Happy Friday!

So on this day I was in San Rafael and I was released to take my lunch and came across this place on my way to delivering an order. I pulled up, went in and ordered a Turkey Burger which came with mushrooms and cheese, sweet potato fries.. plus I added a Pineapple shake which was so delicious. The woman who took my order was very kind, courteous and suggested that their shakes were good.

After waiting less than 10 min my order was ready and I decided to eat outside since it was such a beautiful day.. nice and warm. I took out my food and my burger was HUGE my turkey patty was SO JUICY! OMG.. so much so there was juice in my container it came in.. lol! My burger was flavorful, cheese nice and melted.. oh and lots not forget PLENTY of mushrooms, that's of you love them like I do.. you definitely don't have to search to find them. My fries were cooked ALL THE WAY THROUGH and crispy. How can I forget my shake which was so YUMMY and not too sweet either.

I would without a doubt mention this place to those who have never been to Phyllis and to those are regulars...I am now a return customer. As my day went on with work I did come across another location so I am assuming they have more.

My food was so good..I forgot to take pics.. lol but hopefully next time I am able to go I will have pics of...

Apparently a favorite of my father's (he used to take my little brother here when working in San Rafael), but only recently started going myself after family trips to SF and the rest of the bay area. Have been about a half dozen times now, and it has been excellent every single time! The staff has been friendly (if in a "we don't take bull" kinda way, which is honestly nice), and the food is done and ready super quick. And, well, the food has been AMAZING each time. The basic burger is huge and juicy, tastes delicious, and the bun-meat ratio is perfect. The fries are also excellent, and they don't skimp on them, contrary to so many burger joints nowadays. It's not the cheapest burger I've had recently (I think the giant burger plus fries and a drink are about $16-17), but it sure beats out pretty much every other place near by. The only negative is it's not closer to home! (Although, the seating can be a bit cramped so if it's busy, be prepared for that, and the parking is shared with the pizza place next doors, so that can be a pain too). An excellent stop after bike riding in Golden Gate...

A small but welcoming burger stop. Phyllis’s has excellent customer service, they’re fast on the orders and the food is amazing. My order consisted of a giant burger topped with pesto sauce, two giant burgers with bacon, a large garlic fries and small regular fries paired with a coffee milk shake, mint chip milk shake and a vanilla milk shake. The burger was a great choice I’ve never had a burger with pesto before but it’s definitely something that I’ll be recommending to future customers. The shake on the other hand tasted a little bit too much like black coffee however the mint chip specialty milkshake was delicious. Between three people we weren’t not able to finish the garlic fries you get pretty big servings. The small here is a large at other places so keep that in mind when you’re ordering. There is seating indoor and out but it is limited but there are plenty of parks to stop and have a picnic near by. I will most definitely be coming back to this establishment for years to come. Thank you for the amazing...
