  They do things a little bit different around here. This is just the local millennial burger spot😭 if they played of monsters and men’s, little talks in the background on loop I would give them 6 stars.

  Bunz has been so consistent every single time I have their food. I have enjoyed everything I had — so far my favorites are the Western Bacon Sliders, Tater tots, Cookies & Cream Smoothie, Sweet Potato Fries, Loaded Breakfast Sandwich, Chili Cup, and Chicken Tenders. There are still so many things I want to taste like the Veggie Burger and the Chicken Salad. Gigi is the best & I’m so grateful for her lovely smile and warm demeanor whenever I visit. This place is very popular amongst the community. Keep in mind it will take at least 15 min for your order. It is made super fresh and there’s no rush with great quality food. One of the great things about them is that they have an app where you can order ahead. Don’t hesitate to tip them if you can, it goes a long way. Though some items might be a little pricey, overall they have great prices for the amazing quality and taste. I’m happy to be a loyal customer of Bunz. (Will update soon with photos)

  Comped Food Order: Western Bacon Cheez Burger (ground "choice" beef patty, green leaf lettuce, tomatoes, BBQ drizzle, 1000 island spread, onions rings) $7.29 Food Order: 4 Pc. Chicken Tenders $5.99 Fryz $2.49 Onion Rings $3.79 Located in the small spot with Off The Wall Skatepark & Vans, Bunz Burger is a chill skater vibe burger joint that I drove a stretch for because of OTM Club's curated Western Bacon Cheez Burger. It's a casual walk-up with al fresco covered patio dining with a coded restroom on the right, & plenty of parking, though it may get crowded by skaters. I came after lunch rush so there was plenty of parking & only 1/4 of the tables were full. In addition to my freebie, I added some sides: Chicken Tenders, Fryz, & Onion Rings to share with my 6 YO on this foodie haunt. I'm guessing the red highlighted items are their best sellers? My order was executed quick... everything was hot, hot, hot, & it smelled wonderful!! On a regular bun, the burger was stacked pretty tall... it was a messy, sweet & savory burger... yum!! The patty was nicely seasoned with thick & crisp bacon, crunchy onion rings, oozy cheese, tangy BBQ sauce & thousand island dressing (doesn't need both; think it might taste better with just the BBQ sauce). I know other diners call Bunz's burgers a smash burger, it's not... at least mine wasn't. A smash burger is pressed thin so the patty has a caramelized crust sealing in loads of flavor from the sear; as you can see in my pic & video, the patty is pretty thick. The bun managed to hold the filling until the very last bite, but it was messy from the dripping cheese & wet condiments. The chicken tenders were larger than the commercial fast food restaurants, & we both thought Bunz's tasted better because it's fried by beef tallow? They had a well-seasoned crust, & the meat was tender & juicy. 2 tenders was the equivalent of a kid's meal 5 pc. nuggets so M couldn't finish his order. He usually dips tenders in ketchup so I skipped the ranch & bbq dressing, but went back to ask for ranch so I can finish the last 2 tenders. There was a generous serving of fries vs. moderate amount of onion rings (7). I can taste why the onion rings are a standout! They were fried to a pretty golden brown, rich with flavor from tallow, the onion rings had a satisfying crunch with a tender, sweet onion center. Crunch, crunch... nom, nom, nom! That's not to say the fries were a wimp. The fries were perfectly seasoned & fried golden with crispy crust & fluffy, mashed potato-like insides. Soooooo tasty! Their compact menu consists of breakfast sandwiches, salads, burgers, hot dogs, sides with drinks & shakes; moderate price points & moderate serving size. Service was more efficient than friendly; a line had formed behind us. It's interesting that Bunz Burger cooks with beef tallow instead of seed oils & uses in-house ghee for cleaner cooking. Why? Beef tallow has richer flavor, higher smoke point, & crispier texture than seed oils. Tallow doesn't oxidize as easily in high-heat cooking whereas seed oils may have inflammatory omega-6 fatty acids that may produce toxic compounds. A downside is the beef tallow makes it unsuitable for vegetarians to enjoy these yummylicious fried sides. It's one of the better burger joints that could nudge off In & Out Burger as SoCal's best. Maybe lower price points & more availability? Not in the area much, but would make a stop again for their outstanding burger & sides! Recommended: Western Bacon Cheez Burger, 4 Pc. Chicken Tenders, Onion Rings (a must order!), & Fryz.

  I come here for the smash burgers. Quick bite, great burger. 🍔 Haburgers are cooked once you order so its time and effort makes it that much better. Would come back again.

  There is nothing fancy about the location of this establishment north or set up but their burgers, chili cheese dogs and onion rings were all perfect. I think this was the best Smashburger I have found in Orange County thinking about it makes me hungry all over again. Their cheese was perfectly melted and everything was definition of perfection and delicious.
