"Burger lovers rejoiced when Sonia Hong reopened Irv’s Burgers in a new Santa Monica Boulevard location in 2022. The original walk-up window, stools, and off-white tiles resemble the old space, while communal seating inside a glass side room adds to the charm. The beloved Irv’s burger is available, and a pared-down Just For You burger with Thousand Island dressing and thick pickles on a seeded proprietary bun. They even added some new options like thin-shaved pastrami sandwiches, hot dogs, tuna melts, and simple salads." - Mona Holmes
"Legendary Route 66 stand Irv’s Burgers has been reborn (and reconstructed almost identically) by longtime chef-owner Sonia Hong and new partner Lawrence Longo. The signature Irv’s Roadside Single Burger is pressed to order and comes topped with American cheese, Irv’s sauce, lettuce, tomato, pickles, and onions on a toasted bun. The towering Big Irv comes with pastrami, a hot dog, chili, and more on top. Expect weekend lines as diners pile in for this classic LA burger. What to order: Irv’s Roadside Single Burger, or make it a double" - Eater Staff
"Irv’s Burgers is back. The legendary Route 66 stand has been reborn (and reconstructed almost identically) by longtime chef-owner Sonia Hong and new partner Lawrence Longo. Expect weekend lines for these classic LA burgers, served with a sear but not too thin. Want to step things up? The Big Irv comes with pastrami, a hot dog, and more on top." - Rebecca Roland, Eater Staff
"Irv’s Ice Cream will sell festive ice cream flavors that will complement the Latin vibes, including cold and sweet treats like chocolate peanut butter brownies and brown butter pecan flavors." - Ernest Owens
"The cheeseburger special inspired by the acclaimed film The Menu doesn’t depart too significantly from Irv’s regular burger, but the little details make this something worth seeking out during the month of January while it’s available." - Eater Staff
