Cassell’s Hamburgers - Multiple locations

Since 1948, Cassell’s Hamburgers has been serving LA families premium hamburgers that are ground daily in-house using the original grinder, cooked on the original crossfire broiler and are made into patties via the original press. Cassell’s original location is in Koreatown’s historic Hotel Normandie and features a classic '50s breakfast menu, a variety of milkshakes and malts, a coffee bar, homemade pies and a fully stocked bar. (They also have a location downtown and at LAX.) The burgers are outstanding, but if littles are in the mood for something different, we highly recommend the DFC Fried Chicken Sando—yum!

Covid Update: While the downtown location is currently closed, you can order for pickup and delivery from the Koreatown and Rancho Park location. There's also a take-home DIY Burger Kit, so you can cook up your own patties for the fam.

Bill’s Hamburgers - Van Nuys

A Valley institution since 1965, Bill’s Hamburgers stand in Van Nuys serves up some of the tastiest burgers, with 93-year-old Bill still working the counter. There's nothing fancy-shmancy here—no wagyu, no truffles, no lettuce sourced from sustainable farms. Just good old-fashioned beef patties (with lettuce, tomato, onion, pickle and ketchup), on buns cooked to absolute juicy perfection, plus a bag of chips on the side (Bill’s doesn’t do fries). 

Good to Know: Bill's is only open from Tues.-Fri. until 4 p.m., and it's cash only.

Covid Update: Open for outdoor ordering and curbside pickup; masks are required and patrons must stand 6 feet apart.

Monty's Good Burger - Multiple Locations

Just as all beef patties are not the same, so too are plant-based Impossible patties. (Preparation is key!) If you've tried one of these environmentally friendly meatless burgers in the past and thought, meh, then you definitely haven't been to Monty's. The all-vegan spot (with multiple locations) serves up perfectly cooked Impossible burgers with vegan cheese, grilled onions, lettuce, tomato, pickles and house sauce, all on a fresh-made potato bun. It's so good that no one will ask, "Where's the beef?" Of course, no burger joint is complete without shakes and fries and Monty's delivers on that front too, offering fries (and tater tots), plus dairy-free shakes that are as good as the real thing—maybe better. 

Covid Update: Open for takeout only. Contactless checkout and no-touch hand sanitizing stations available.
