Casual joint dishing up specialty burgers, fries, and shakes, including vegan options.
"The burgers at Trophies, a casual counter-service spot on Fairfax, fall into the “fast food-style, but way better than fast food” category. They come with thin, juicy patties topped with American cheese, plus classic toppings like diced onions and pickles. The menu is small, with just three different burgers, the best being the Spicy BBQ Bacon, which comes with spicy barbecue sauce, chilies, grilled onions, and bacon. If you like your burgers equal parts salty and spicy, make this burger an immediate priority. If you’re a student, be sure to head over on weekdays to take advantage of the “After School Special,” which gets you a classic burger, fries, and a drink for $12." - brant cox, sylvio martins, nikko duren, garrett snyder
"The burgers at Fairfax’s Trophies Burger Club start with a brioche bun, to which a patty made of brisket, ribeye, and NY strip is added. The classic burger comes with American cheese, ketchup, mustard, diced onions, and pickles, while the Trophies burger swaps ketchup and mustard for dijonnaise, and adds in shredded iceberg lettuce." - Rebecca Roland, Eater Staff
" The Meal: After School Special, $12.48 Everything at Trophies, a fast-casual spot on Fairfax, costs under $10. Their short menu involves what you’d expect to find at an old-school burger joint: cheeseburgers, hot dogs, fries, and milkshakes. But their all-black space is made to impress people who wait in lines for streetwear. Fortunately, service is pretty quick on weekdays, which also happens to be the best time to try their After School Special—it comes with one of their delicious burgers, crispy fries, and a fountain soda to chase it down.

"Trophies is a new order-at-the-counter burger spot on Fairfax from a former Burgers 99 chef. Considering that place makes one of our favorites in burgers in the city, expectations for Trophies were high—and it delivered. The burgers fall into the “fast food-style, but way better than fast food” category with thin, slightly greasy patties topped with American cheese and other classic things like diced onions and pickles. The menu is small with just three different burgers, and our current favorite is the Spicy BBQ Bacon, which comes with spicy BBQ sauce, chilies, grilled onions, and bacon—an ideal meld of heat, sweet, and salt.
