Donuts & Burgers

We started stopping here on the way back from camping trips and now it’s a tradition. Great burgers & fries! I especially like his western BBQ, but a regular hamburger or cheeseburger is just as good, do the double if your really hungry. Fries are always hot and crisp! Each order is made fresh so it’s hot and delicious. Friendly service, delicious food. .. who could ask for more?

This is without a doubt the worst place to eat in town. I called my order in and then one day they kept picking up and hanging up the phone. When i arrived I called with the phone in my pocket with the owner doing nothing he still picked up and hung. I called him out and asked him why and he was EXTREMELY RUDE and so is his brother. The food sucks, the place is dirty, and wouldn’t go here if I was starving and it was free. I highly recommend you do not eat here!!!

The 2 stars is for the pretty good burger, the bun is good and homemade, but too big for a regular burger, a double burger would handle it, if you are so inclined. Fries were mediocre. The place might have potential, if they did some major repair, cleaning, painting and updating. I am not picky in general and can overlook a lot, but this place is a dump! The porta potty for a restroom was clean, but really???

I have been going into this burger joint since the early 90’s when I was a kid walking by on my way to school at Eastlake Elementary. Its food quality has had its ups and downs in that time period and been under many different ownerships. I have to say the burgers they serve now are without a doubt the best tasting to be put out by this small Clearlake Oaks establishment. Their food was enough to get me to keep coming back, but after my friend left his new iPad on the dining room table overnight and the owners had it waiting for us behind the counter the next day, they’ve earned a customer for life. I only give it 4 instead of 5 stars because it lacks curb appeal and the interior could definitely use some updating, which hopefully will come as they keep cranking out more of those awesome burgers and donuts.

I’ve enjoyed the mural (being a muralist myself) each time I drive through Clearlake Oaks, and yesterday my husband and I finally decided to check the place out. So glad we did, just very sad it took us so long!!! We were greeted by a friendly young man who let us know that his mother also owns a burger place on Highway 20 in Willits. My husband is a self acclaimed Burger Connoisseur and Critique; so when I tell you he rates Donuts & Burgers 5 stars– it IS a 5 start burger joint! I had (and thoroughly enjoyed) the fried zucchini sticks & garlic fries. We will definitely be stopping in again… and again… and again. We passed by today but didn’t have time to stop because the parking lot was fun with lunch time crowd, and we were late for an appointment. But like I said– We’ll be back!!!

I love eating here! When they are slammed, it may take a while to get your food, but they are made to perfection here! No lie! Try them and you will fall in love with their bacon cheeseburger and cheese fries (chili cheese fries with no chili) if your looking for that perfect burger and thick fry combo, this IS THE place!!!

This place has been through a few different owners over the last few years. I think the donut option is just with the newest owners. I’ve had burgers from the other owners and they were all tasty. I stopped in on my way to our Clear Lake house to see if they had a menu so I could get something to go later. No menus, but I did get a business card.
They close at 6:00 (on a weekday, really?) so I called at 5:15. No answer. Called again 10 minutes later. No answer. Ordered a pizza from Firehouse instead.
The next day I called at 4:45. No answer.
Drove over and found the place open (empty, but open).
I got a mushroom burger, fries, rings, and fried mushrooms. I only had a small sample of the fried stuff. The rings were good, but the fries were mushy and the mushrooms were pretty bland. The burger, however, was top notch, with a very moist patty and well proportioned condiments.
I may stop tomorrow and check out the donut variety (they had a nice selection the first time I went in).
