PRO TIP – a double is more like a quad (see pics). So if you are worried about not getting enough meat with a single or double they add enough to equate it to regular thick style burger single or double. Kinda like a Cuban sandwich that has many slices of meat it’s like that. Unbelievable juicy and greasy which I enjoyed thoroughly. Stringy onions were elite. The loaded fries were great seemed to be higher quality cheese than the in and out animal fries. Over really expensive but worth it for special occasions.

Don’t get me wrong, the burger was pretty decent, but the price is just absolutely absurd for what you get. Got a double cheeseburger with jalapeno and bacon and it was over $17…for maybe 1/8 lb smash patties, barely any bacon, and a few jalapenos? Honestly, the most unsatisfying $17 I’ve ever spent. Would need about 3 of them to fill me up. It should have been like $8, $10 max. Absolutely crazy. It’s a shame, cuz its pretty good food, but I will never be back for these prices.
For reference, this is what you can get from The Melt for the EXACT SAME PRICE! Compare that to the other pictures from For The Win… It’s pathetic. You can get 3 times the meat, twice the cheese, 4 times the bacon, onion straws, and more for the same price elsewhere and actually leave full. There’s literally no reason to go here…

Complete let down burger was just all right I asked for no pickles and wanted to add bacon well I got pickles and NO bacon and it was not busy at all one other person so no excuses if you pay for bacon they should probably give you bacon. Burger was very greasy also french fries were decent a little over salted. For the Win should be ashamed of there first San Diego location these guys just don’t care and they need to start because they definitely have better burgers down the street

After a 5 mile run on Mission Beach a cheeseburger and Dr. Pepper hit the spot. Really into smashburgers and have been hearing good things about For the Win. Bun is soft and balances the seasoned patty. Cheese is perfectly melted and onions have a nice crisp. Single patty is enough for lunch but double would be better for dinner or if you want to enter a food coma after. Fries are crispy and seasoned well.
Went right at 11AM and Johnny the cook checked in with me and we talked about burgers in San Diego. Kudos to Johnny for cooking and amazing burger and friendly customer service.
FYI Outdoor sidewalk eating, only 2 tables. I don’t like to take burgers home and eat them fresh right there.

For the price I would expect better. 17$ for a burger that didn’t even fill me up. If you like grease and a ton of salt this place will hit all the right buttons. Burger tasted good but the salt really overpowered the rest of the flavors.

Ordered 2 double cheeseburgers, both came with 1 patty even though I paid for 2 doubles. I asked for no pickles on them and both came with pickles. I asked for lettuce to be added to them and neither had lettuce

I ordered this through Postmates and received something drastically different upon delivery.
This is TECHNICALLY, a Bacon Cheeseburger…barely.
I ordered two Bacon Cheeseburgers and both had a single sliver of bacon to qualify then as “Bacon” Cheeseburgers.

Stopped here for a burger after going to the beach and it was delectable. My girlfriend had the triple and I had a double cheeseburger. The bun was so soft and buttery, and the meat was seasoned perfectly. Even my sweet potato fries were salted just right.

22 minutes and counting for a burger… I ordered a single burger. There were only two people waiting for food, and no wait to order. 15 minutes later and … Nothing. I asked, and they told me my order was coming up. At the 20 minute mark I asked again and… Still “coming next”. I told them I was cancelling, but they didn’t know how to issue a refund so took my phone number to have the manager call me. That process took 2 minutes, and my burger still wasn’t ready. Either the manager issues a refund tomorrow or I’m calling my credit card company.

Will leave you wanting more, I got a single patty as I wasn’t too hungry but wanted to try it. Will definitely get a double next run. I nevered plan to come here as probably many people do only because its in a very busy road in PB, no parking. We went to the pier with the kids and walked here. If you’re in this area amd want a burger, this is it!
