Triple A Burger

Really good burger and great fries. Good alternative to In and Out (and I think better). The husband and wife who run it are very friendly.

This place isn’t just a hidden gem, it is a destination for the ultimate burger enthusiast. Expect huge patties, the quality of the meat is fantastic, the choices are amazing (we tried the tandoori chicken burger it was out of this world), and the custom options allow you to make your ideal burger… which I did, the bison was amazing along with smoked gouda and smoked bacon along with hot sauce and jalapenos. I have unique tastes and I was very satisfied. Also try the pulled pork poutine, it was great!

Who woulda thunk? Little place on Fresno near Kearney Blvd. The people who were working today were very friendly. Hamburgers, fried rice, shrimp… I had a HUGE hotdog charred a bit just like I’d grill myself on the barbecue! I’ll go back.

Some of the best burgers in Fresno can be found here.
I hadn’t been here since they moved to this new building (it’s been years) but I have always been a fan. There’s no wonder how they have stayed in business so long.
I ordered a double cheeseburger combo that came with a side of fries and a medium drink. I paid just under 9 bucks for my meal. Not exactly cheap so if you’re not on a tight budget then it is definitely worth it. My burger arrived juicy, perfectly seasoned, cooked perfectly, and dripping with cheese… exactly how I like it. In my opinion, it’s a 5 star burger for sure.
The crinkle cut fries had a great flavor to them and were so good I ate them without ketchup (I was driving lol).
I ordered Pepsi with my meal and their Pepsi didn’t taste cheap and syrupy as is the case with a lot small businesses such as this one. If you’ve tasted that cheap Pepsi (I think they get it on discount or something) then you know what I’m talking about. Not a big deal, but worth mentioning for those who care. Also, they serve their drinks with crushed ice which always makes drinks better in my opinion. I know, it just ice, but for some reason crushed ice just makes drinks better and they serve it here. It’s definitely not common.
Service was extremely friendly and speedy. As everyone states, the people who run this place are extremely nice people and they hire quality employees.
The only downside to this place is the location. Most people are turned off by it, but really it’s not bad at all. Customers from all walks of life frequent this place so don’t let the location deter you. If you love burgers, I dare you to try it and I guarantee you will most likely love it. They serve some pretty cool custom burgers that I haven’t tried too, along with some traditional fast-​food style Chinese/​Japanese items.

Super-​friendly family, fast cooking time, good, cheap meal with excellent burgers. Far better than your standard fast food and the Pastrami burger was perfection! Recommended for a quick and happy meal.

Average is the best descriptor for this place. I’m glad I got it off my list. Much better than McDonald’s or Burger King. Wish I had a better recommendation.

Can’t say too much about this burger joint. Not to say that it’s bad but average in my opinion.
Yes, location is really sketchy to some. I’m not the type to worry about my surroundings too much, especially if the food is good/​great. I do advise that u mind your own business, which can lessen your chance of a bad experience with other patrons (west side fresno at its worst).
Came here with my girl and she seemed satisfied with the burger she ordered. Can’t quite remember exactly what the name was, I think it’s a single classic or something. As a matter of fact I had the same, just bacon added. Nothing bad I can say about it and nothing good that stood out enough to mention. Patties fresh of the grill is what I do appreciate and grilled buns is also a plus in my book. Wish I can give it a better rating, maybe if I get a chance to try something else on the menu, I can update review and hopefully give them 4 stars.

The Burgers are incredible. The Westside is to die for, so big I couldn’t finish, good thing it was even good enough to eat the next day.

I came here on an empty stomach hoping to get a nice size, juicy burger. Although the burger was very good (and juicy), it was SMALL! I asked for a «Classic Combo» and got a Triple A mini-​meal. I wasn’t expecting a HUUUUUUGE burger, but for the price I paid altogether… I could have went to BK or some other fast food spot, spent the same amount, and got something better and BIGGER. I’d like to think that the other combos are bigger and a bit more satisfying.

First of all I asked for zucchinis instead of fries and got charged full price for the zucchinis and combo. And they only gave me like 6 and a half order of fries. They were nasty by the way. The burger was terrible, bland, chewy, and just mehhh. I got the bacon cheeseburger combo and totally ruined my day. I wish I could give 0 stars.

I don’t know how this place got 4 stars, I think owners family is doing the reviews. Service was good but their hamburgers were very low standards, and I know my hamburgers.
They are really fatty and oily, and tasted very bald. French fried were also not good.
I came here on business from Bay Area and came because of the reviews.

This place rocks… not the quickest but amazing friendly service and the burgers are amazing…

This place is AMAZINNNGGG! And trust me, I am not being dramatic.
This small family owned burger joint is way more than just a burger joint. They have a variety of options from Japanese, Chinese, Mexican, American that they cook right in front of your eyes. And I have tried EVERYTHING!
Their teriyaki chicken or beef with side salad served over rice is always juicy and satisfying.
Their absolutely insane and famous West Side Burger served with a hot dog, pastrami, topped off with an egg and all its condiments is enough to feed two people.
Their orange chicken or chicken chowmein is served in a big platter and is so delicious I can’t even begin to describe how much I love it.
They even make milkshakes from the ice cream that they sell there. You can choose from a variety of different flavors such as: strawberry, butter pecan, chocolate, cookies ‘n cream, vanilla, strawberry shortcake, cherry, and much more!
Do I recommend this place? ABSOLUTELY.

Man! Really good lunch! Fast too. They griddle the bun and the ice cream is out of control!

This place is my kind of spot. Hard to find a fast food place in Fresno, that has Chinese, Japanese, Mexican, American and Ice cream being served all in under one roof. Sure, it might be in an area where you might have someone come up to you, begging for some change or a burger, only for you to see them hop onto their Benz and drive off. But once you’re inside, you have countless options of what you can order!
I have come here several times, for lunch during work since it is right off the 99, near the downtown area. Each time, the food has been really good. The teriyaki beef or chicken, is pretty loaded, and actually tastes better than a few other Japanese restaurants I have dined in. They are not stingy with the teriyaki sauce, so feel free to let them know whether to add more or less for your order.
The burger meal I tried, which I think was called the «Snack Combo» was greasy and pretty big which I like. It is basically a hamburger patty, with a sausage link. More of a «light» version of the popular «West Side» burger. Burger was pretty tasty but a LITTLE too much on the seasoning which made it kind of too salty, and the fries were OK. It was your basic crinkle cut frozen fries.
Local, family owned place as well, so it’s always good to show up here and support.
Oh, and they accept debit or cash only. Debit has an extra $.50 cent charge added on.

Tried this place out the first time today to see what this Westside Burger was all about. Well, the Westside Burger was pretty good. Gotta give them credit for creativity coming up with the idea to put a slice sasauge, egg patty, and bacon strips on top of a beef patty to give you a new exotic like hamburger taste. The Westside Burger although big is slight smaller then the Dog House Grill Double patty Monster burger, however I think the Westside Burger taste much better. Calorie wise, you won’t mistake this burger for something you would get at the Heart Attack Grill Las Vegas but more in the range of a McDonald’s double Quarter Pounder or the Carl’s Jr six dollar burger meal.
As far as saying this place is better tasting then Foster Freeze, In and Out, or Five Guys, be hard pressed to say that. Since they use frozen patties like 99% of all the burger places in Fresno, so there’s nothing too distinctive about them to give them a special five star rating. This is expected, because the best burgers are the steak burgers which are freshly made when you order it, and are only available at the more upscale restaurants.
The restaurant is very clean, good customer service, and relatively fast at getting your order. The price are pretty much on par with every other hole in the wall burger joints in Fresno, not too expensive. Definitely be back here again for lunch, to try out their triple or four patty burger.

Been here a couple of times, but I always forget to check in or even leave a review! But here’s my input. This place is not what you expect it would be! I barely «dine-​in» nor do take out from business from the «westside» because of an incident years ago. But my best friend from Clovis area referred this place and I know I had to give it a try.
Location: easy to find
Store front: easy on the eyes
Lobby: very clean
Staff: friendly and family owned/​operated. Love the ambience.
You can see the grill so you can watch them cook your food right in front of you and it’s always made fresh. Love their customer service the owner is such a cute and sweet man. Hilarious also he was cracking jokes with me. a first from every place I’ve been too.
I won’t try any of their signature burgers one because it looks too good for my health. Lol but I’ve been told it hits the clogging stage of your heart good taste. My all time favorite would have to be the chicken teriyaki. Mediocre food but I love it and it tastes better than most «Japanese» places that do serve/​offer it on their menus.
Recently and during my pregnancy I’ve craved nothing but processed burgers or burgers that remind me of elementary school. And this place by far always hits the spot! I’d recommend this place to anyone that’s willing to try and drive. It’s far if you’re not from this side of town like I am, but I’m sure the food will tell you other wise.

Been there, done that, won’t go back
After viewing all the good reviews, I had to see for myself
1. Meat in burger was dry and without flavor
2. Double with a medium drink was in excess of $ 6
2. Do not like shredded lettuce, prefer the whole leaf
3. They charge for soda refills.
In N Out burgers are much better.

Warning! Do not come to Triple A Burger if you:
* are looking to lose a few pounds to fit into that bikini
* have a heart condition
* checked obese as a body type on your online dating profile
* walk sideways in order to fit through the door, but even that doesn’t work sometimes.
If you don’t have any of the above conditions, congratulations, you’re going to live a long life but more importantly, you get to eat one of the best burgers in the history of humankind: The West Side Burger.
A more appropriate name would be the ‘Digging Your Own Grave’ Burger. This burger is big. This burger is greasy. This burger is salty. This burger is so damn good. The West Side Burger is the Burger equivalent of an English Trifle. You have layer upon layers of heart stopping, artery clogging, button bursting goodness.
First, everything is made to order and you can see the cook or as I would call him, burger magician, methodically assemble the burger. The burger consist of a bottom bun, then layered with a big, juicy ¼ beef patty. Next comes a generous helping of pastrami. Followed by 1 hot dog split in half. And then topped with a fried egg. Lettuce, Tomatoes, go on next and finally topped with the crown bun.
My Friend, what you have just witness is the apex of human invention in the culinary arts. This heart-​attack inducing burger is worth dying a few years early for.
And this pleasure only sets you back $ 8.99 (#17) which includes the, if possible, greasier fries and a drink.
*************************************
Triple A Burger is not right for everyone. Only your healthcare provider and YOU can decide if Triple A Burger is right for you. If you have an erection lasting longer than 4 hours, you, my friend, are have having way too much fun with your food.

Do not eat here if you have a preexisting heart conditions. This food is greasy. It is fatty. It is salty. And it is damn good.
When you enter this very tiny establishment you’ll see burgers and… chinese food??? Yup, that’s right. This place is located right in the heart of the west side of Fresno, down the street from good olé Edison High School. Therefore, it is a tad ghetto. This, my friends, is from my days of youth.
The food here is made fresh to order, you can see the grill because the kitchen takes up half of the restaurant’s space. The dining room takes up one third and whatever’s left is the counter and the menu. The burgers are amazing, the sandwiches are amazing, everything is nice, greasy and delicious. However, you come to Triple A Burger for one thing and one thing only.
The West Side Special.
Walk with me, if you will, through an epic beast of a burger…
This thing packs on a burger, cheese, pastrami, bacon, hot links and… a fried egg. Top this off with some lettuce, pickles and whatever other fixings you’re looking for and you’ve got yourself all the protein and cholesterol you’ll need for about half a decade. Oh yeah, and it comes with some AMAZING fries.
When you take a bite into this monster, the first thing you realize is: «Holy Crap! This thing is delicious». It’s so good because you can actually taste all the separate heart-​clogging meats on their own as well as together. And they combine together to make like a SuperBurger or something. This baby should have a cape and some tights, no joke.
Many a man have tackled the West Side Special. And you know what, it’s actually not that difficult to finish if you’re a high school kid, or just a guy in general. It’s big, but it’s not so big that it’s a freak show. But once you finish, oh boy, take the rest of the day off. You will have the meat exhaustion.
The only downside to this whole place is that they no longer serve my favorite Cherry-​Lemon-​Lime soda that you can only get at old school burger joints such as these. Still, you could always get the milkshakes, they’re good too. I like the soda cuz they have real crushed ice (you know what I’m talking about).
Anyway, if you’re in Fresno and have the time, I definitely recommend you hit up this burger joint. It will definitely hit your heart with a lasting impression.
Cheers!
