88 Giant Burgers To Go

Great burgers, the best in the area. Once and a while the staff is a little rude and the place looks a little dirty but is still great food for a good price.

Great burgers — terrible service and efficiency. It took well over 30 minutes to get our meal and we weren’t the only ones. They weren’t even starting peoples’ orders until at least 15-​min after they ordered. From what friends say, the service used to be a lot better.

Prices are great! Little crowded but worth the wait! The Jack was totally amazing even though they were out of Chicken

Just left there. 1÷1÷16 ~2:00. Took so long to get the burgers. They finally put down the patties 10 minutes after the order was taken. The service. Holy moly was it awkward to be in there at some points. The girl with the pony tail, black t-​shirt and headband had THEE worst attitude ever. like EVER same with the red head I felt bad for their coworkers. The girl with the tinker bell tattoo behind her ear killed it. She was super nice and got shit done despite the other girl telling everyone what to do when she didn’t even know how many scoops go in a malt. Sheesh. Anyways. The burgers look good, headed home to eeatt (: The two stars is for the awkwardness and attitude from the girls at first. Oh shout out to the French fry guy that came out to save the day too (:
Sheiiit.

For about $ 10 per person, you’ll get a delicious burger, a milkshake and enough fries to last a week. Ordered the Double Cheese with grilled onions again, consistent and delicious.
Everyone should make a stop at 88 Giant Burgers To Go. 5 stars for an emphasis on «To Go».

Great burger. Shitty staff. We are locals and ended up walking out of the place today. Last few months have been like this. For now we’ll get our burgers elsewhere.

The best burger and fries I have eaten since moving to California… enough said. Go there…

I went camping with a big group at salt springs over the weekend and one of the fellow campers were raving about some burger place on the drive out that we would stop at.
Leaving our camp around 1pm, I was already starving and thinking «these better be the best damn burgers I have ever tasted» and already dreaming up my ultimate cheeseburger dream. I was ready!
We pulled up to a basic burger shack along any highway. Walked in to a small area with just bar seating that faces the grill, fryer, and shake machine. I was extremely pleased to see they only have American cheese as the choice for the burgers. There are other items such as hot dogs, chili, chicken sandwiches, but I knew what I came for! My boyfriend agreed on some fries to share, a small was perfect for two hungry adults and a toddler. He had even surprised us with wanting to share a chocolate milkshake made with real ice cream. Which knowing Bud, that is a rare thing to order sweets along with a meal! The chocolate milkshake was by far the best I’ve had in a really long time, or maybe since it has literally been years since having one, it was the best ever! Our food was ready so we went back to the truck to devour it. The French fries were perfectly fried, golden crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. But the burger, that glorious cheeseburger that you dream it to be when you are craving a burger, it was AMAZING! Fresh, grilled bun, fresh veggies. Flavorful flat top grilled meat. And two incredibly melty slices of American cheese. Not to mention, the burgers were HUGE! I was able to share mine with my son and be satisfied.
We definitely know where to stop for a bite to eat when we are out that way again!

Working up here on the Butte Fire
Went to 88 on a tip from a local a few towns over.
Amazing burgers enough said.
Only order the small fries they are a meal by themselves.
Small open grill with counter and a few tables outside.
No frills, great service, awesome burgers

I’m very picky with my burger. This place is simply amazing. Make sure you order ahead of time while coming down the mountain. Bee coming here for a few years now.

LOVE THEIR BURGERS Plus, a community-​minded business. Bless you for feeding our firefighters, etc.

Walked in and waked back out. The stench was disgusting…

Yuck! We tried 88 burger for the first and last time. The staff is super rude. The girl at the register looks like she partied a little too much last night and was extremely unprofessional. The fries tasted like mushy cardboard. The were cold and needed to be fried longer. I asked for onions on my burger and got a sliver of an onion. I don’t know why people say this place is so amazing… rude staff and poorly cooked food. Won’t ever come again and I live 10 minutes away.

I agree with most the other reviews here… The burgers are great, portion size is generous. Staff is not nice. Usually this would get a 4 star review because I’ll put up with staff for good food.
But the place is absolutely disgusting. Order your food with your eyes closed and take it to go. Not only is it dirty., I watched an employee wash her hands after handling money., 2 seconds under water, no soap. And the refrigerator case is visible from the front… The door was open the entire time I waited for my order. You know the contents are not staying cold enough. Not to mention the dirt, grease and flies. I actually ended up not eating much even though it tasted good., gross

On a diet? Then stay far, far away. You’ll gain 5 lbs here but it’s totally worth it.
Their shakes, cheeseburgers & cold Dr. Peppers are the best, even better than Moo Burgers down the road in Jackson.
88 Burgers is the real deal. Yum!

Loved it! The hamburgers were awesome and great customer service. The only thing they had no fries because the deep-​fry was broken. Will be going back this weekend to get the frys! And I read other comments about the gal cooking. She did a great job. We walked in at the same time as quite a few other groups and she handled it like a burger ninja!

So I guess I should just say this place is so good. We plan our ride home from Tahoe around this place. The funny thing is that so many others do the same. First of all let’s start off by saying I always get a double cheeseburger. It’s two patties and four slices of your choice of cheese: American, Swiss, Monterey Jack or cheddar. I’m sure the grill being seasoned for so many years adds to the amazing taste of the patties. Patties are neither thick or thin just perfect. Fries are huge. At least three to four people can share an order. Everyone comes here for the burgers which they should, but the hotdogs are pretty good. We have never had a bad experience here and we have been here more than twenty times. Do yourself a favor and make it a point to come here. If you’re a burger fan, then you’ll love this place!

Thumbs Down – way way down!!!
Food was quite good as described; service including courtesy was appallingly awful! Cook (Lauren) was rolling her eyes visibly twice (!) as another customer was getting his order coordinated. Then she made a rude obscene hand gesture behind a server where she probably thought it couldn’t be seen. Our burgers when prepared were literally slapped down I front of us by this same cook, without a word! Then they’d forgotten to prepare our chocolate shake AND fries, which we’d paid for, and we had to ask for it – and other surly cook reluctantly had to make them. It was so bad it became funny, but clearly they are not expected to be even barely polite! And didn’t care. We were there more than a half hour before closing, but watched them do their best not to get many more orders.
This place owned by the bigger Italian place next door; sorry to see that their sloppy service looked stellar by comparison. We won’t be back, as a peanut butter sandwich would be preferable! If they were our employees, involuntary turnover would be instantly occurring…

Not happy at all… Well, we have been going here for years and it’s always been the best, excellent burgers and even more the best fat big fries ever!!! However we just ate there today and they changed their fries, not only were they skinny like shoe string fries, they were over cooked and were hard as a rock! I’m so mad about this and not sure if I will return unless they switch back to original fries. Don’t mess with a great thing!!! Oh and maybe you should answer your phone and make it easier on your costumers

You have the basic burgers: onions, lettuce, tomatoes and a patty between two buns. At 88 they got these basic hamburgers except they are anything but basic: two buns clutching your fresh onions, crunchy lettuce, refreshing tomatoes and sizzling patty.
The taste that results from 88’s hamburgers are inexplicable. A picture is worth a thousand words and yet that is still not enough.
I hypothesize that the burger taste far superior than any of your common fast food places because it is a small (seemingly) family owned place.
However it is because they are a small (seemingly) family owned business that the place is a bit small. I wouldn’t recommend the claustrophobic to wait inside.
