Hamburger Stand - El Centro, California

This caught my eye as a chain I never heard of and it looked like it could be unique. We stopped late and it still was busy for stoner food. The cinnamon bun shake was unique and good , fruit loops wasn’t so good. The chilly cheese dog was solid ( fresh bun, dog cooked ok and weak chili). Fries were lukewarm. The servers were friendly but food was a little slow. Late night cheap food run it is worth a stop….. regular meal there are better choices.

We went through the drive thru and ordered 3 #5 combos and was charged extra for items we never ordered and charged for upgrades on drinks and we never ordered upgrades. When we got home we realized the receipt was even more incorrect and the items in the bag were not correct and no straws for the drinks. The server at the window did not want to take responsibility and said he didn't take the order. So we decided to call the manager and he did not do well at listen and kept trying to say that is what was ordered , however by the end of the call they he did offer to refund the extra charges.

The first two times that we bought food here were great!! But this last time was horrible. The hot dog and hamburgers tasted old and dried, the fries were cold and some of the fries in my batch were undercooked. Dissatisfied and left feeling like a fool because we purchased the family meal, only to have my Suegro say “meh” when asked what he thought of the chili dog. Sad. My husband was waiting for a good response regarding the food here. Which is good but I don’t know what happened this last time.

The only tasty item were the poppers. They were on point!

Hopefully this establishment gets the much needed help they need. It took a long time to place our order in the drive through.

Forgot items, took forever, the Wienerschnitzel was cold all of it. We were on the road and had to turn around and go back. Then they questioned if we had gotten our fries or not, after we told them we hadn't?! Never again!

The food is typically on point here however my last 2 visits were pretty bad. The oil used on the poppers tasted recycled and old. The poppers themselves were extremely burned so that may be what I was tasting. Parking is always easy. The atmosphere gets a 3 because of the parents that let their children run wild like its a park. Not the Stands fault but it still makes me want to wait for my food in my car and get out as fast as I can. The staff are fairly nice and polite. My order has always been correct.
Final thought: I'll try one more time and see how the food comes out. If they cant nail that, with the rising prices and chaotic atmosphere, its not worth a return trip in my opinion.

Okay. Nausea has taken over this review, so this is a little biased. We grab food here every time we pass by during the holidays. Over 20 years my family has eaten from here. It's not the "best" food on the planet, but it is cheap, fast and reliable. Stop by if you are in a pinch.

So sad that the effects of the pandemic are still present. First they stopped doing a lot of things due to health concerns. Then greed stepped in and altered or way of life as once known. When purchasing a soft drink from a fast food restaurant the biggest expense incurred by the restaurant is the cost of the cup and lid. The water, syrup, carbonation is pennies. At near $3 for a large drink and now you've made it permanent that refills are not available is a shame. You're near a school and perhaps the students destroyed the refills. Prior to the pandemic a vehicle crashed into your building and with those repairs you decided to eliminate the drink station. Understood! But as a single man who comes in on average 2 times a week and each visit my meal is $16.50 today is extremely hot outside and I wanted to take my drink with me. Having never asked for a refill until today I learned that you pushed your greed another inch. I love the Wienerschnitzel menu and have for 50 years. But as of right now I will never return to this location. I'll wait until I go to San Diego or palm springs to enjoy Wienerschnitzel..
