Hopdoddy Burger Bar

Today's lunch was @hopdoddy! I am spending about a week in California with @grouchoporx and her boyfriend! This is where they took me as soon as they picked me up from the airport. Apps: Parmesan Truffle Fries Crispy Brussel Leaves with Hot Honey and Sage Main: El Diablo Burger Tillamook Pepper Jack, Jalapeños & Habaneros, Caramelized Onions, Spicy Salsa Verde, Chipotle Aioli, Lettuce, and tomato. After not eating since first thing this morning and flying for 6 hours, this hit the spot! Everything was so good. The fries were perfect and I dipped them in their chipotle ketchup. The brussels sprouts were crispy, sweet, spicy, and had amazing flavor. I have always loved the crispy brussels sprout leaves thay come off when they are roasted in the oven. This was a whole bowl of them! The burger was SPICY! 🌶 It tasted great. I am glad I had a glass if beer to wash it all down with.

Tasty burgers, great fries, and refreshing lemonade! 👍 The prices are absolutely fair. I'm not entirely sure about the portion size differences for the fries, but the large one is definitely enough for a full-grown adult. 😋 For reference: the regular fries with toppings seem like a standard size, while the sweet potato fries 🍟 might already be the large portion? 😅 Hard to tell… Bottom line: The overall experience was great – definitely a place I’d recommend!

Hopdoddy is great every time. They have a variety of burgers, chicken, a good Ahi burger, a couple veggie options and its all good. It's a bit on the expensive side, especially with fries, but worth it. Food is always fresh, cooked to order from high quality ingredients. This where I like to go for my birthday: a big burger, sweet potato fries, and a boozy shake. Staff is friendly and it's very clean. One of my favorites.

We have been here multiple times and it is the best burger and social hangout place in PV! We ordered Mother Nature (pasture raised beef with running egg) and Cadillac Wagyu (with bacon). I like the latter slightly better since it’s juicer and more flavorful. The fries are good too but wish they can be a bit less salty.

Quick service bar with burgers, fries, and alcohol. The food options are creative and unique, like brussel sprouts or distinctive burger toppings. The ambiance is fine as a bar, but it's family friendly.

I always love coming to Hopdoddy Burger Bar for my go to El Diablo burger it’s consistently delicious. The habanero and jalapeño really give it that perfect kick. The truffle fries are a favorite too, especially paired with their tasty dipping sauce. Every now and then, I’ll grab the sweet potato fries for a little sweet finish. The vibe is welcoming, and the staff is always friendly and attentive. Definitely one of my top spots when I’m craving a great burger.

I have been to several Hopdoddy locations in Austin, Texas, and absolutely loved them. So when I found out there is a Hopdoddy in LA not far from me, I really wanted to check it out, and it didn’t disappoint. It was just as good as the other locations I’ve visited. I ordered the classic burger with cheese and a truffle fries. The fries were really good - crispy, flavorful, and topped with Parmesan cheese. The fries is what I really love here. it tastes better than in other fast food chains. The sauce the fries came with was delicious too. The portion was pretty big, enough for 2–3 people to share. The burger was great. The beef patty was big, juicy and tender, and all the ingredients tasted fresh. The bun had a slightly sweet flavor. The price is pretty good for this burger. The restaurant itself looks great, it super clean with plenty of seating. There are lots of tables inside, including some with sofas, there is a bar in the center, and they also have a nice outdoor patio. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and they cooked everything pretty quickly. Overall, I had really good experience. Probably one of the best burger chain in the US. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to get some good burger.

The Playa Vista Hopdoddy location is our go-to spot for dinner whenever we catch a flick at the Cinemark next door. The staff makes us feel like family. They're genuinely friendly, attentive, and they even come table-side with their handhelds so we can skip the long lines when we want to order another round. Their rewards app is also one of the best I've ever used. We visit so often we've reached Legendary Status, which comes with fun perks like a free Burger of the Month and the occasional bonus like free fries bowl or a birthday shake! Speaking of the Burger of the Month, it's usually creative and worth trying. They're not all hits, but when they are... wow. I still dream about the Breakfast Burger they had this summer. Slap an egg on a burger and I'm all in! My husband is a big fan of their goblets of beer and I enjoy the occasional boozy shake (decadent and dangerous in the best way.) My only wish? A nice Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc by the glass to round out the drink list. It's the only reason I've rated them 4 stars instead of 5! Chardonnay just isn't my jam, and unfortunately beer upsets my stomach these days. All in all, Hopdoddy Playa Vista nails it on food, service, and hospitality. Definitely one of our go-to neighborhood spots.

I've been here several times with my wife, and we came back for a date night. Service stood out this time. Our waitress, Autumn , was kind and attentive, guiding us through the menu with care. We started with the Hot Honey Brussels Sprouts. She had the sauce served light and on the side, which made the dish perfectly balanced instead of overpowering last time was so hot couldn't enjoy it. My wife had the kale salad with beef, exactly how she likes it. I went for the Cadillac Wagyu burger, no bacon. It was excellent, especially after traveling overseas and craving something satisfying. We split regular fries and sweet potato fries, both done right. Everything from the food to the service felt consistent and thoughtful. Hopdoddy continues to deliver a strong experience. Rating: 4.7 Burgers

Don't have any pics because I haven't been here in a few months but man, this burger joint is bomb!! What I usually do is order a burger myself and so do my buddies and we'll share a portion of their fries. Wish I still lived close by but will make my way back here when I'm around!

Quick service bar with burgers, fries, and alcohol. The food options are creative and unique, like brussel sprouts or distinctive burger toppings. The ambiance is fine as a bar, but it's family friendly.

Overall pretty good experience. The establishment is in a convenient location with free parking. You can buy groceries or do some shopping after a big meal. The food: - I got the classic cheeseburger. Take great and was cooked medium rare- just right. Very large. - the Truffle fries were good too good. Wish I was crispy as McDonald but not everyone can be goated. Recommend get two dipping sauce. Service : - 5/5 we got our order and they brought the food over pretty quickly. Friendly and speedy. Ambience: - chill af

Update: new item is the buffalo chicken lollipops! Very good buffalo flavor and juicy chicken. Easy to eat and good for sharing. I also noticed the honey sage sweet potato fries upgraded! The fries are skinnier so they're much crunchier and taste even better than before! Service is always wonderful and my go to spot for casual dinners with friends.

absolutely phenomenal experience here all thanks to veronica. she has the sweetest most radiant energy out of any server i've come into contact with. i would come here again just to make sure i was served by veronica. 10/10 recommend. plus the food was great, had the cadillac burger and was filling. the parmesan garlic fries with their sauces was the cherry on top. whatever you do, go see veronica. you won't regret it

Had the Shishito Wagyu burger and it definitely lived up to the hype. The meat was juicy and rich, and the shishito peppers gave it just the right amount of heat without overpowering the flavor. Everything tasted fresh and well-balanced. The place has a laid-back vibe and the service was on point. Pro tip: Ask for the truffle aioli on the side--goes perfectly with the fries or even a dip for the burger. I'll be back to try more.

Salted Caramel shake was amazing and taco style fries too. So many burgers to choose from.

The smashed wagyu burger was insane and truffle fries 10/10 !! Definitely coming back!! Veronica was so sweet & made the whole experience even better with her amazing energy!

First time trying Hopdoddy and it was great! I ordered the El Diablo burger as I like heat! The meat was cooked perfectly and the bun very good. The Jalapeños added a nice kick. I would definitely order from Hopdoddy again!

Myquesha greeted us with the loveliest smile and instantly made this a great dining experience. We came in just after 5pm today (Friday) and enjoyed the El diablo, Thunderbird, Sweet potato and regular fries. We were seated right away and our food was brought out nice and hot. Thank you for the great service!

Repeat visit but hadn't been here in a while. Remembered their burgers being good so here I was again. What I didn't expect but should have these days, is how much smaller the burgers were at about the same price point. The Classic burger with cheddar and the bacon and Magic Shroom with pepper Jack cheese burger were yum but so tiny vs before. Shared the fries which came out lukewarm and meh tasting. You have chipotle and regular ketchup for dipping them with. Chipotle's kind of meh too.. a bit too strong and acidic for us. The ginger and hibiscus lemonade are yummy but on the sugary side so we watered them down a bit. Servers who brought our food seemed like they didn't really want to be there. The location and the option for beer on tap are probably what many like about it. But the vibe just seemed blah overall. This is a once in a long while place vs. a must have. Parking on the street preferred in the neighborhood even though you'd have to walk a bit. There's a parking garage but validation is only offered for the grocery shoppers.

Hopdiddy never disappoints. They came out with new tenders which I had to try - overall they were just ok, super oily and bready with limited meat. Service was great, we got our beers and food super quick even though it was really busy. Super vibey spot with friends or a casual date!

I just had a terrible customer experience here. Ordered my food and they didn't bring it to me. I had to go up and grab it and they said oh sorry we're just waiting for a time to go bring it to you. It was sitting there for over 20 minutes. The food was cold and the fries were stale.

We have been here multiple times and it is the best burger and social hangout place in PV! We ordered Mother Nature (pasture raised beef with running egg) and Cadillac Wagyu (with bacon). I like the latter slightly better since it's juicer and more flavorful. The fries are good too but wish they can be a bit less salty.

Hopdoddy!!!! I'm super disappointed with my order tonight look at the avocado that you put on this salad and have the nerve to send that out to a customer. The avocado is rotten. You want to charge $18, $19, $20 after you add on different things and then you send out rotten avocado. How disappointing. So, I paid for a meal with avocado that I couldn't eat. Shameful!! My other complaint is that you give one handful of salad! You guys are the worst and I will not patronize your establishment any longer. We work too hard for our money to get skimped on like this. Do Better!

ove and beyond! High quality burgers (tried 4 different and left satisfied with each one) great crispy fries and they serve right size margaritas and have a full bar. You can order right away with a cashier and choose sit yourself but have still restaurant service and great music! Great place to invite family or friends for burgers, definitely recommend it.

This casual spot features a variety of tasty burgers that are hard to resist. I especially love their margaritas, a perfect pairing for your meal. They offer a happy hour with a slightly different menu and prices. You order first, then find a table; the service is fast, so it's usually easy to get seated. The atmosphere is lively and sports bar-like, with TVs for watching games, plus comfortable indoor and outdoor seating--complete with heating for cooler evenings. Parking can be a bit tricky, but there's a parking lot with free validation, making it convenient.

I was craving a burger while I was in LA and wanted to give this place a try. I saw their special Brazilian Wagyu burger on the menu and it looked promising. The burger patty itself was cooked to perfection. Super juicy medium rare. However, the red pepper salsa sitting on the bottom bun made the entire bun extremely soggy. It was also too sweet for the burger. The panela cheese was too thick and heavy for the burger. The meat/cheese ratio was extremely unbalanced. The chimichurri was a nice touch. I also enjoyed the truffle Parmesan fries. Overall I rate the burger 6/10. This rating is purely based on the combination of ingredients in the burger, not the quality. I will definitely be returning here to give another burger a try.

Best burger ever so I don't know why they never pop up in any of the top ranked burger lists ever! Customer service is great for the most part. I like the interior of the store as well. They have comfy seats.

Big bowl of fries-well seasoned and hot! $9.90 The Doddy Melt-two smashed beef patties, Swiss and American cheeses, and sautéed onions on rye. My dream burger! $18.30 I didn't even register what the other five people in my party had. I was in hog heaven. Finally juicy, tasty fast food!

This place never disappoints. The food is great, the customer service is great and they validate parking. The truffle brussels leaves and Parmesan fries are so bomb! They both come with a side of truffle aioli that is delicious. We also got a classic burger and added jalapeños and the bacon jam burger with the bacon jam on the side which is served warm.

I've since updated them +1 star to 3 stars overall. After re-consideration, their normal burgers are quite good, although expensive for a single burger, even though the happy hour sliders are still poor, basic, and decent. Price = Above average / service = below average / cleanliness = average / parking = 1 hr. validated lot Now, it pains me to rate a bad review for Hopdoddy given my last experience with them was amazing. However, similar to many restaurants as they continue to grow or time passes by, Hopdoddy has fallen dramatically. Let me explain...first, they used to have an amazing happy hour where the entire food menu was half off for a short time given how good of a value that is. I believe that used to be 3-4pm. The stipulation was that you only can take advantage of this at the bar. Unfortunately, it seems this is no longer the deal. Now, it is a measley single food option of sliders that reduces from ~$14 to ~$7. Take a look at my photo on how sad of a sliders and this is the only option now. I would not pay ~$14 for these poor sliders. They are far smaller than it may seem in the photo as well. Why is it that restaurants need to lose the values and what they were known for in the beginning of time. This is what happened to Chipotle as well; however, they are getting slightly better from creativity recently. I might have to say...goodbye Hopdoddy.

We hadn't been to this area since we lived here years ago and this was wildlife marshland. We barely recognized it. How sad, but I digress.. The food and service was excellent! The young lady that took our order was super helpful and patient with our indecisiveness. Parking - we parked in the first level near the elevators and escalators and this saved us some stress (upper level was more hectic). Easy peasy. We had to pay $6. We forgot to ask if they validate, but I think they do since we also made a purchase at Whole Foods. Food: Side portions are definitely shareable! Brussels - 5/5. Although a bit salty they were great Sweet potato fries - 5/5. Sage + hot honey Parmesan fries - 5/5 Burgers - Cadillac & bacon jam cheeseburger- 5/5 Mini shakes - 5/5 Prices were pretty steep but for the area it's to be expected. Our food was $75 for 2!! Great for groups b/c each person settles their own bill. With all that, we will be back!

So I've been to the El Segundo store, this store a couple of times, and a store in Austin TX. They have all been consistently good. I've tried various burgers including the Buffalo Bill bison burger. They have been good, juicy, tender with tasty sauces and very good buns or toast. My wife gets the chicken burger to her liking, and it has also been consistently good. Our one irritation is that the audio is so high that it's hard to carry on a conversation. One solution is to eat at an outside table. Service is adequate. The drink machine is hard to figure out if you want water. Hopdoddy has given us a good alternative to our other choices, and it's great that they are available in other states.

Combined with the service, I gave it a four star. The food was good, the milkshakes look really good (I didn't try). The service was great.

Food I got the Ahi Tuna burger and overall the flavor was pretty good. The tuna was nicely seared on the outside and rare on the inside, so the tuna flavor came through. The fillings of the burger were really good especially the crunchy nori that just lifted the seafood flavor of the whole burger. I would just say that I was a bit disappointed with the actual construction of the burger since the inside kept falling apart and I would have to keep rebuilding it, and I would say the same for my friends who ordered actual burgers too, and theirs kept falling apart as well. The sweet potato fries were really good and crunchy, but I'm just a sucker for good sweet potato fries Service/Ambiance The restaurant gave off like a higher end but still casual style burger place vibe, where you order from the cashier and they bring the food to you. The staff were nice and we got our food pretty quick.

Great burgers, fries, cocktails & shakes! I love Playa Visita date nights so this place is perfect. Staff are so friendly & accommodating.

My best friend and her girl recommended this place so we swung by for a fun dinner- the burgers were solid if not a little bit salty, and the fries paired well with a number of sauces that the very nice server guy brought! Two of us ordered the Thunderbird and one of us ordered the Diablo. The pretzel bun was nice and toasty and the patty was solid. Not my favorite burger but solid, I probably wouldn't come back myself but I'd come along again if someone really wanted Hopdoddy. The patio outside was really nice to sit at and the environment was quite enough to have a good time while having just enough ambience to feel like somewhere we could kick back and have drinks together.

Cool vibes! Staff were pleasant and attentive. I had a classic burger with cheese and truffle parm fries. The food was delicious. I ordered a blazing pineapple to drink. Perfect amount of spice. Great spot. I would revisit. No pics cause I inhaled the food.

Wow! Hand down winner winner chicken dinner!! Nashville chicken sammie on point! Had to enjoy a delicious beer to complement. Service was so friendly and made sure we were taken care of. Sweet and answered all our questions. Food came fast! Fries and queso were delicious too. One of my tip favorites will be back for sure. Lastly music is perfect and made the place feel right on a hot day with balsti g A/C.

I came in with my daughter for lunch after her doctor visit. My protein burger sadly came with frozen lettuce. The server informed a gentleman, who I'm guessing was the manager. There was no effort to replace the frozen lettuce or comp my burger that was not the way I had ordered or paid for. Not the kind of service you expect for the price.

Not bad for a beer! I went here for happy hour and it was decent. You order your items at the cashier and then you sit and they serve you from there. The reason for the 3 stars was because of the limited food options for happy hour. They offer only sliders in their happy hour menu which are pretty small. You get 4 sliders for $7 which isn't bad but this is your only food option on the happy hour list. I recommend just getting a beer which is 1/2 off!

Great spot for casual drinks and amazing burgers. They have happy hour mon-Thursday and you can get great deals on drinks and their sliders. I love their burgers as they have a variety to choose from and each are so unique and full of flavor. Their portion sizes for fries are large enough to share and I love the hot honey sage with sweet potato fries. A bit sweet with a little heat! Service is fast and friendly and will def be back!

There aren't many burgers that stand out. This place does both for the food and price. One of my favorite go to places with my dog (nice outdoor seating). The buns on these burgers are nice and soft. It adds to the burger instead of feeling like bread. The different homemade sauces elevate the flavors. I would choose this place over any pricey restaurant burger. They also have a nice array of alcoholic drinks to choose from including beer made around the area. The service is good and friendly. You go up to the counter to order then they deliver it to your seats.

What a great experience. They took my gluten allergy seriously and took precautions. We had our twin one year olds very accommodating for kids there's plenty of room for them to run around and have fun.

Hopdoddy Burger Bar was such a surprise! My friend and I randomly stumbled upon them while charging the EV and so glad I did. Those hot honey & sage fries are sticky and highly caloric at a G of calories but the sweet potato fried goodness is delectable. Obsessed with them! For my burger, I had the 850 calories (I love that they throw how many calories things are on their menu) $15.25 Mother Nature burger. This thing was on a tasty bun, had a big ol' egg, fried cheese (yeppppp), fat patty, crispy onions, onion jam and aioli. This thing was stacked and made two meals for me. Beast of a beautiful burger. For dessert I had the Candy Bar shake which was unfortunately the only disappointing part of the meal. It looked nothing like the advertised photos. Just looked like a normal shake. Flavor was fine but wasn't quite as delicious as I was hoping for with the insane ingredients listed - pb mousse, dark chocolate, caramel, sea salt, peanuts, whipped creams. A bit of a let down and on the carry out menu they didn't list the smaller size which I would have opted for. I'll definitely be back to Hopdoddy but will stick to the eats and skip the desserts.

Located next to Whole Foods next to the parking structure (2nd floor). There's also street parking. HopDoddy's validates your parking for 90 mins. You place your order at the cashier and they will bring your order to you. I ordered the classic burger with an added cheese. It came a few minutes later cooked medium well as I requested. The burger was thick and juicy. Yum! My friends got fries. The sweet and spicy sweet potato fries is a must, next time I come. We all sat around the bar for lunch midweek. It wasn't particularly crowded and plenty of seating inside and out. Very nice chill vibe to get burgers and drinks. I would come back to HopDoddys.

I'm a big fan of their mini shakes ( I go for a chocolate and salted caramel combo shake) and it's absolutely fabulous. You you can make it boozy for an extra $3.50. I recommend the bourbon which you can do there or if you've got some at home have at it. Last night, I just discovered their Texas sling, which really reminds me of an adult Hi C fruit punch . Absolutely delicious!!! Two of those and you'll definitely feel something. My favorite go to burger is the Aji tuna, which was a super surprise . It actually might be one of my favorite burgers of all time. Think sushi grade tuna that is seared with all of the flavors are used to eating Nigiri ( sweet ginger, pungent, wasabi, and creamy mayo ) ..highly recommend!!

I don't think there is a burger on the menu that will disappoint!!! I love egg on my Fatburger so I thought I'd try the "Mother Nature" this time instead of my usual "El Diablo" and THAT WAS A GOOD CHOICE !! The grass fed patty was so juicy and the added avocado was the perfect Lagniappe! Paired with a Little Larry margarita and it was a good night

I was craving a burger and came here. I got the Diablo burger with a gluten free bun. The burger was so good! The meat was perfectly cooked and seasoned. I was a little nervous getting a gluten free bun because sometimes they can be super dry and crumbly but theirs was unique. It did crumble a little bit but it was tasty and it seemed like they made them in house but I could be wrong. The only con is that their online ordering portal is confusing. I selected my order, put in my card info but I didn't see a confirmation window and thought that my payment didn't go through but it did. I hope they fix this later on.

Food was okay but the service was slow compared to other Hopdoddy locations I've been to. Also there was an off-putting odor in the area which did not contribute to a positive dining experience.

Thought I would try it out, based on my coworkers reviews of how great it was. Ordered Classic Cheeseburger and fries. The burger was almost raw, and bloody, I threw it out, maybe you have to say well done? Fries were ok if you like shoestring fries. The mandatory tipping was insane starting at 18%. And they do not take cash. Won't be going back, buyer beware. My order was to go st 11:30 no crowds.

First off, our service here is always super friendly. Burgers are fresh and tasty and fries are delish. Why the 3? They recently changed their happy hour menu from the full menu to drinks and only sliders. Sorry, but for a place that seems to pride itself on allergies etc...that's not enough. I totally get you were losing money discounting the whole menu, but at least be inclusive and add fries to the HH menu. Vegetarians and GF people (huge market in LA and particularly Playa Vista!) can't eat sliders. I wouldn't be surprised if you lose more money on happy hour with not offering a few more options. Regular burger prices are also slightly higher than what the burger is actually worth. We will stick to going for occasional lunch.

These Fries Though! Get your order w your different dips Extensive menu of Food and Drinks to order from. Great location, w Plenty of seating, indoor and outdoor (for you people watching humans ) Plus plenty of parking. Enjoy!

Loved the food and atmosphere. Outside patio and great cocktails . We had a combination of burgers, chicken and tuna sandwiches.

The spicy Inferno burger was definitely pretty tasty. Strangely the fries came first and then the burger came so 20 minutes later. That was a little strange that you don't get all your food at once I didn't enjoy the burger, however, it was pretty tasty

GREAT happy hour! well, for booze at least. prices are already pretty good, but, at HALF OFF?!?!?!?!?! SOLD! HH is bar seating only, but, there's a good amount of seats. bartenders can be a little tepid at times, but, they get the job done. HALF OFF prices fix that right away. i haven't eaten here quite yet, but, the HH will have me coming back on the regular.
