Once you go east of the 110 freeway all the franchise restaurants disappear north of the Cal State Dominguez campus. Since we were planning on going to a Galaxy soccer game there wasn't time to drive a mile somewhere else and The Big Burger was in sight so we went there. Located in one of those minimalls with too few parking spots, the restaurant is small with about a dozen stools next to a counter and maybe a half dozen small tables that will seat 2-3 people. The menu features burgers, chicken sandwiches, hot dogs, fries, etc. which are cooked to your desire after you order. The man taking our order was helpful and friendly. The burgers come large (1/3 pound) and larger and with all the trimmings if you wish. Our burgers were juicy and delicious. However, you have to be careful as all the excess juice accumulates in the wrapping and, in my case, ran out the side and down my shirt. Bummer. The fries were good, but not exceptional.The place wasn't really on top of cleaning the tables as ours looked like it had not been cleaned in awhile. Probably my biggest complaint is that the Big Burger does not have a restroom and so you can't go or wash your hands before eating. I don't think this is legal, but some places try to avoid the hassle. So, overall, you can get a big, juicy burger at this place which is worth the stop, but you might get it to go if you don't have far to go.

the burgers are cooked to order and very good. Prices are a little steep but a nice treat on a Friday evening after work. Traffic can be a problem getting in and out of the parking lot, but overall I like it. Get the fat fries. They are the bomb.

I always find the burgers to be very tasty at Steak N Shake and this one is no different.This restaurant doesnât offer the table service that other Steak N Shakes do, however, they still have the same burgers and shakes the other stores have.The staff were friendly, the food didnât take too long to make and it tasted great. They also have some of the best fries seasoning around. You can even purchase it for about $3 a bottle.

The place was clean and you could see there was a high standard of food hygiene/ prep but I didn't rate the food it I was honest. Over 8 bucks for one burrito was also kind of expensive for a 'fast-food' type place. It was very busy here so I am sure the locals rate it.

This is your typical Carl's Jr except that the food was very hot and fresh and the staff was very friendly and attentive. It is not a Green Burrito location. It does have a drive thru and a free parking lot. There is not a play yard or outdoor eating area. The restrooms are clean and well serviced.

I love all the food here! I usually get a bacon cheeseburger, but will sometimes go for the steak sandwich. My husband's go-to are the pastrami and the carne asada. Our friend can't get enough of the chili-cheese fries. We usually get an order of onion rings that we split between 3 - 4 people. I don't usually like onion rings, but theirs are amazingly good. Their ranch dressing is so fresh! Quick, friendly counter service. I'm not a fan of the inside, but for getting food to-go, it's a great place.
