Jack's Hamburgers - Santa Cruz

Their burgers and fries are very good. They messed my order up a little bit but that's ok. Not a big deal. I asked for extra lettuce and didn't get any lettuce

We were looking for a quick bite to eat and found Jack's Burgers by accident. We were very impressed on the fast service. Our Burgers and homemade fries tasted amazing. Definitely coming back in the future.

Just visiting the area for the weekend and found this hidden gem HOLY COW do I have only good things to say! My quick review? Delicious food, served by a quick and friendly staff, for an affordable price. The Food: Fantastic. My friend and I got the Swiss Mushroom burger, my partner got the Diablo. ALL of our burgers were excellent quality. The meat had perfect texture and was free of excessive grease, meaning we walked away feeling great (not sick and bloated like other burger places leave you. The buns were lightly toasted and retained a good 'fluff. ' The lettuce was crisp, and the mushrooms were fresh! We shared a lemonade which also must 've been freshly made, as hinted at by the pulp. I simply cannot praise the food quality enough! The Service: Quick and friendly! There 's an outdoor area with tables and benches to eat at, and the restaurant has an open window where they call out/deliver your order. (We chose to eat outside due to COVID but it looked like indoor seating was an option as well. For us three, we waited maybe 15 minutes tops for all our burgers. Some Uber Eats/Door Dashers came by as we were waiting and they too got their orders exceptionally fast. The Price: Incredibly affordable considering the quality. A combo meal with fries came out to be about $10 each. Compare that to other fast food places that now charge upwards of $10 $15 for a similar combo meal for significantly crappier food, and you realize how great this place is. Jack 's was truly a great find! Being from out of town, I still felt 'at home ' here. The weather was perfect on this specific day, so eating some tasty food outside and taking in the downtown scene was epic. If we pass through again on the way back to our hotel, we 'll definitely be back for Round #2!

Flying Hawaiian chicken is the best to me. Their fires are also awesome. My friends think Jack’s is the best burger in Santa Cruz.

The service is friendly and efficient. They have a wide variety of burger selections. They have salmon burgers, chicken sammich, and milk shakes. Great value and great taste. I got the cheeseburger basket and flying Hawaiian chicken sammich. The burger was juicy and had enough seasoning in the meat. The lettuce, onion, tamoto, and pickles were fresh and crunchy. I give it a 8 out of 10. The chicken sammich was really good. The slice of pineapple it came with was fresh and not out of a can it seems. I give the sammich a 7 out of 10 as I'm not a fan of pineapple touching my meats. Fries were just right. Some were crispy and had a great crunch. Some were soft and moist. And some were ever so slightly cripsy on the outside and pillowy soft on the inside.
