Best KPortal Reviews

The milkshake and fries were REALLY good. The hot dog was OK. Fast service. Definitely intended more for takeout than dining in but still, the fries and milkshake were easily the best parts of the meal here. Bathrooms are gross and falling apart and sink continously trickles water in a little stream. Spigots in the back accessible for anyone. The noise from the street is very loud, and if there are screaming children inside the eating area it will be very loud from echoing. Anyway, its good for takeout.
I’ve been here a few times.. I’ve had their chicken sandwich, chicken quesadillas & burgers w/fries.. haven’t had any complaints so far. Food has been tasty & fresh, w/ a very friendly staff ????
Volcano Burgers is an institution in Los Alamitos. Located right across the high school, it's been there for more than half a century. The burgers are good, not spectacularly good, like some other burger joints in Orange County (Bunz, Grinderz, etc. See my other reviews), but definitely way better than McDonald's, Burger King, and the other large chains). The burgers are nicely charbroiled, and the sauce is rather traditional for this type of place. In fact, Volcano burgers remind me a lot of Astroburger, a "historical" small chain in Hollywood and L.A. (no idea if it still exists...) Two burgers this place is famous for is the Volcano Burger (with pastrami on top of the patty) and the Avocado Burger (not vegan, the avocado slice lies on top of a classic meat patty. Fries and onion rings are nothing to write home about: decent, but a little dry for my tastes.
Went here for the chili cheese fries because of reviews. I wasn't disappointed. I got lucky when I went. Drive-thru was pretty empty, but I went before the kids were out. Only 2 cars in front. Ordered and received food within 7 minutes. Chili cheese fries were delicious and my jr cheeseburger on the side was perfect. Spent about $13. Ate it all. Fries were still crispy when I got to my destination and started eating them. Was ???? afterwards though.
I stopped here after picking up donations for my Nonprofit. One of the workers at Food Finders suggested this place.
I ordered the plain double bacon cheeseburger for my husband with seasoned fries.
I ordered the mushroom cheeseburger with bacon for myself. I got light sauce but there were too many onions. I wouldn't mind if they were sauteed, but they were raw.
Next time I would ask if the onions can be sauteed, if not then I would skip them. The burger was absolutely delicious! I would definitely visit again.
There were a lot of fries. They filled the fry bag and dumped more in the bag. There was enough for me and my husband to share the fries.
I changed the Rate from 5 Stars to 2 Stars. Before I ordered a BLT Sandwich & a Taco. Those were Good Taste, however, a LAVA Burger was Pretty Bad. I also ordered a Chili Dog. It was Good.
Anyway, TOO WATERY ! ! There was a Block of Lettuce that included Water in its Layers. It did not look like LAVA.
I felt Employees wanted to keep or Protect their way even Customers asked Anything. I asked them to give me some Napkins to wipe the Table. She replied that they would do it. However, I had to wait a Couple of Minutes. It was an easy thing to hand in Some Napkins to me, wasn't it?
Another one of our family's all-time favorite places for over 20 years. This is our favorite lunchtime spot. Very generous portions and are equally flavorful from their hamburgers to their pastrami sandwich.
Beyond delicious. We drove here from the San Fernando Valley. Every time I'm in town I wait to eat here. Thanks again for another epic family meal. Everyone loved it from the babies to my 98 year old grandmother. Thanks
