Some friends kept talking about the burgers at the Friendly's we honestly didn't know what to expect. It's a whole in the  wall joint and says pizza outside- but it's the burgers that were amazing! Super reasonable in price.
There isn't really a place to sit so we walked down to Fall brewery, got ourselves a beer and enjoyed our burgers. I think what makes the burgers amazing is the seasoned meat as well as the soft bun. Think of a vamped up MC Donald's McDouble. Nothing like it. Definitely a Must try and the pizza was great too. Super fresh. Wait in the line. You won't be disappointed.

Ok this place is awesome. They only make their burger one way! Their way, delicious! My top 2 or 3 smash burger in SD. So I'm originally from NYC and a total self admitted pizza snob. This joint's pizza is of the highest quality, amazing pizza. It goes right into the family's weekly pizza rotation which is very limited. Pizzeria Luigi's, the friendly, Long Island Mikes and Bronx Pizza. Very happy I came in for a burger and a slice. Will be back often. Great joint!

A total boy's bar - great for a quick burger and a beer.  If you like loud rap music and good prices, this is your spot! Not a family restaurant but fun for younger folks in the neighborhood!

Great flat burgers they are a little greasy but @ $7 you can't beat the price. Has an underground feel like a hole in the wall but with attitude! Great place to grab a beer and listen to some trending music. The pizza I would eat it at the location only once I got the pizza home it was dry cause it's so thin but the pizza is the opposite of the burgers with hardly any grease. Keep in mind you don't get any toppings on the burgers they come as is cheese patties and onions and bread they don't have any mustard or ketchup also as a heads up.

Never had a smash burger before, and I'm glad I came here to try one for the first time! Ordering was quick and easy. Definitely a bar/club vibe at night.

I passed by this joint for so many years and I seriously regret never going in. Please don't be like me.

Came here on a Halloween bar crawl night after some drinking, and they recommended their burger.

I will never forget this greasy burger. Sometimes, this is what's good for your soul. You order at the counter, and find an empty seat. Sometimes it does get busy, so you're left standing. I don't care if I'm outside in the street eating this burger, it doesn't matter.

The time I was there, it was very rowdy inside, in a good way. This is definitely a celebrated neighborhood joint.
