From 1983 to 1993 I lived down the block from Bongo Burger, on the first block of Regent St. When I, and later my wife and I, needed a quick, delicious and deeply satisfying meal, this was our go-to place. At least twice a week for three months after our baby arrived. We loved it! Meat on the sandwiches was always moist, well salted and very tasty. Falafel was the bomb. Fries were always hot and crisp.

This place was a great spot to stop and grab a burger and fries, but they also offer Falafel and Dolmas! I tried the baconburger and it was absolutely delicious. The fries were crispy and crinkle cut, and they even offered Sriracha to mix into the ketchup (YES!). Overall, it was a fantastic spot for a lunch break in the area.
I have been coming to this burger spot near Oscars for 15 years and it is my favorite! They offer delicious krinkle cut fries and their burgers are top-notch with generous toppings, large size, and cooked perfectly. The baklava is also a must-try! The staff at the counter are always friendly and make the best Ranch Dressing. The chefs here are excellent and consistently deliver great food.
The Cal Berkeley Stack is a favorite among college students and families for its fresh and delicious food. They offer traditional burgers and fries as well as a delightful selection of Persian dishes to keep things interesting and tasty. Customers will not be disappointed.

The burger is HUGE, I didn't expect that and with tons of sesame seed on the bun, the fresh hot fries is good. EXCELLENT service with smiling friendly staff. Definately coming back for more. Parking is a bit challenging but with walking distance there's plenty in the residential side area for 2 hours parking. Meal type: Lunch Price per person: $10–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
