back to LA for food

by Tammy love

upon my 26yr return to LA, I was not only delighted to try Phat & Juicy Burgers, but excited at the prospect of tasting fine food!

I wasnt disappointed at all! Not only was the service provided by the friendliest member of staff (Owner) but the high quality food was to my full satisfaction! I had Chilli Cheese Fries with Pastrami! sheer delight! the fries were not too hard, or greasy, nor soggy and under cooked, the chilli was divine, but the Pastrami was an unusual touch that topped off the dish beautifully! Thanks, Thanks, and thanks again! and there will be an again! All the Way from England!

Better than the rest!!!

I've had a lot of burgers but this place is the best. There's nothing like their turkey burritos. It's something about the hot sauce that seals the deal. The food is always fresh and never disappointing. I wish the location was closer to where I live because I would eat there everyday!There's always a line so must know people are coming for a reason!!!

If you like Fatburger, but not the price...here's a decent alternative

by MikeLOC

Phat and Juicy Burgers...the name sounded interested...and I'd always see their signs outside on Centinela/Beach advertising their "$1 taco Thursdays" or their "$2 burger Tuesdays" and thought one day I should give this place a try. I like burgers, all kinds of burgers (except veggie burgers!)...from the most basic Mickey D's cheese burger to the Kobe Beef Burger they serve at the Bonaventure Hotel in downtown. But there's nothing like a good ol' homemade style hamburger that you can get right in your own neighborhood. P&J Burgers is similiar to Fat Burger, except that they cost somewhat less and the burgers are slightly smaller. There isn't much fanfare to their waiting area, the colorful wall menu and little tv they have is about all you have to keep yourself entertained while you wait for your order. All in all I'd say this place is highly recommended if you want a Fatburger style burger without the wait and super-high prices. nly slightly smaller.

• Pros: food quality, freshness, price, service
• Cons: waiting area is drab and parking lot is small, but who cares! great burgers!

GREASIEST BURGERS IN TOWN

by mramir

My bf and I tried phat burgers for the first time and it was a bad experience. The burgers were really nasty and by the time we got home, which is only about ten minutes away the burgers were extremely soggy and hardly edible. Their french fries were extremely greasy, (i know they're deep fried, but for some reason they just seemed like the greasiest french fries) do yourself a favor and go to fabulous burgers right down the street!

• Pros: none

Phat, Not Fat

by rbc

This place is kind of a knock-off of the Fatburger chain, with one difference: the food is fresher, more homemade, and damn good! I'm impressed, and don't really recommend it because you'll be in my way!

• Pros: Fresh, Homemade style
• Cons: gotta wait for 'em to, cook it
