Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you actually want to know — no fluff

The Beef

What kind of beef do you use?

Humanely raised, from family farms and ranches that never use hormones or antibiotics. We hand-patty every burger fresh daily — nothing frozen, nothing pre-formed. The patties are a half-pound of real ground beef, seasoned with salt and pepper. That's it. No fillers, no binders, no mystery ingredients. You can taste the difference, and that's kind of the whole point.

Why does it taste so much better than other burger places?

Open flame. We grill over real fire, not a flat-top griddle. The flame chars the outside while the fat renders through the meat. It's the same reason your backyard burgers taste better than a fast-food patty — except we do it with better beef, every single day. Abraham's been doing this since '97. He's got it dialed.

Dietary & Allergens

Do you have gluten-free options?

We offer lettuce wraps instead of buns on any burger. Our fries are cooked in dedicated fryers with no shared oil. That said, our kitchen handles wheat daily — buns are everywhere — so we can't promise zero cross-contact. If you have celiac, please call ahead and we'll take extra precautions.

What about vegan or vegetarian?

We have a veggie burger and a Beyond Burger option. Both come on a regular bun or lettuce wrap. Our sweet potato fries and regular fries are vegan. Shakes are not — they're made with Mitchell's real ice cream.

What allergens should I worry about?

Our kitchen handles wheat, dairy, eggs, soy, and tree nuts regularly. We share prep surfaces and fryers. If you have a severe allergy, call us before you come in — we'll walk you through the safest options. We'd rather spend two minutes on the phone than risk your health.

Ordering & Delivery

Do you deliver?

Through DoorDash, UberEats, and Grubhub. Average delivery time is 25–35 minutes. Tip: eat the burger when it arrives — it doesn't reheat well. The fries travel fine for about 15 minutes. Shakes need to be consumed immediately.

Can I call ahead for pickup?

Absolutely. Call the location directly and your order will be ready when you walk in. Most orders take 12–15 minutes, or about 20 during lunch rush. Way cheaper than delivery too — no platform fees.

Do you cater?

We do. Burger trays, fry boxes, shake platters. Give us at least 48 hours for orders over 20 burgers. We've done office lunches, birthday parties, even a wedding once. Call either location to talk specifics and pricing.

The Fries

Are your fries really fresh-cut?

Every single batch. We buy whole potatoes, cut them by hand in the kitchen, and fry them to order. No frozen bags. No pre-cut supplier. It takes longer, costs more, and makes a mess — but the difference in taste is obvious. If you've been eating frozen fries your whole life, these will ruin you for anything else.

The Shakes

What ice cream do you use?

Mitchell's Ice Cream — a San Francisco institution since 1953. They make it in small batches in the Outer Mission. Our vanilla shake is their Madagascar vanilla. The chocolate is their dark Dutch. You can't get a better shake in this city, and we'll argue about it with anyone.
