Hyphy Burger - Review - West Oakland - San Francisco - The Infatuation
"The giant yellow Hyphy Bus (plastered with “this vehicle will gas-break-dip”) parked outside lets you know you’ve arrived at this West Oakland smashburger spot. Whether you were born here or just got off a plane at OAK, you’ll be fully consumed by the hyphy era theme the moment you enter the parking lot and hear Dru Down, The Jacka, and P-Lo blaring through the speakers. There are only two burgers on the menu, each with crispy edges we could easily find inside of a Lay’s bag, layered with globs of creamy (and appropriately named) “You Feel Me” sauce, and grilled onions on squishy potato buns. Round out any order with the only two other options on the menu: fries and a Fruity Pebbles or Oreo shake thick enough to defy gravity. You can go through the drive-thru or easily sit down inside—and for night owls, there are plans to extend hours until 1am.

This one keeps things simple with grilled onions, american cheese, pickles, and “You Feel Me” sauce that packs a creamy punch—purists, go for this one. photo credit: Julia Chen Burnout Burger Just as good as the Hyphy Burger, but with two types of cheese (american and pepper jack), plus pepperoncinis and jalapeños for an added bite. Fries Thoroughly salted and crisp on the edges. No meal here is complete without them. photo credit: Julia Chen Oreo Shake Even if you’re not someone who goes feral for frozen desserts, this will turn you into a certified shake person." - Julia Chen
