If you want an iconic San Diego burger experience, Hodad’s delivers exactly what it promises.
The service matches that beachy rhythm too, so settle in, loosen up, and enjoy the ride.
The giant milkshakes are part of the legend for a reason. They’re thick, massive, and basically a dessert and a workout all in one. Don’t skip it.
The Blue Jay — a bacon cheeseburger piled high with blue cheese and grilled onions — is a standout. I saw someone complain the onions were cut too thick, but that’s kind of the point. You gotta know what you’re getting into. A Hodad burger doesn’t do subtle. It’s stacked high with generous layers of lettuce, tomato, pickles, onions, and their secret sauce — a messy, glorious flavor bomb that somehow all works together in pure bliss.
If you’re a beer drinker, the michelada’s are on point as well.

My goodness, this place was awesome! My dad’s friend recommended that we eat here while in San Diego. Literally the best burger we’ve ever had! So delicious! The onion rings were delicious also. So crispy and the batter was very tasty. The atmosphere was cool too. Music you could sing along with and license plates hung all over the walls.

The prices are frankly on par with the other beach eateries. But the quality is fantastic! Wife got a “mini” bacon cheeseburger. The mini was a lie… pictured lol. But, those are the ones that are fun and to your advantage. I got the Guido burger as a pastrami addict, and it did not disappoint! We also got split onion rings and fries. My wife claims the fries are some of the best she’s had – which probably is true since i don’t like fries – and I rather enjoyed them.
Overall a great spot worthy of its reputation! If you’re feeling a little frugal the mini burgers are great value as they’re double the size of any fast food burger and also twice as good.
The burgers are a little messy but not ridiculously so – and the staff is very friendly. Will definitely return!

Overall good experience.
My first time there – but those who took me love the place and the food.
–
We waited about 10-15 minutes to sit – which apparently isn’t that bad cause usually the line is huge…
–
Service took a while to take our order. Once we ordered food took a while to get to us. The onion rings and fried took even longer to come to the table. So we had the burgers but no fries to go with it for a while ♀️
–
The taste was okay – nothing too crazy. I loved that the bacon was crispy but it was chunked up in one place and not properly spread out on the entire burger. The burger was very thin. The onion was cut way too thick- i took it out. The ratio of patty size to onion size didn’t make sense.
–
Onion rings were good. Sweet onion and friend to perfection. Fries were wedges – crispy on the outside (not too crispy though) and the inside… meh.

Super atmosphere, it was recommended by a friend and did not disappoint. I had the bacon cheese burger. MASSIVE amount of fries and onion rings to share. We each had a burger abs split the fries. It was $75 for dinner, wouldn’t do it everyday (huge burgers), but with the trip. Paid for parking, got some food, quick 3 minute walk to the beach. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
VERY FRIENDLY STAFF! Made is a great dinner.

There is a reason this place is famous for their burgers and were featured on diners, drive ins, and dives. AND in the shows #10 burgers ever! Saying this place is so good isn’t enough. The burgers are flavorful and stacked and we only got the single. We also got their chocolate shake which was delicious, you get icecream on top! The atmosphere is so fun, very beach surfer vibes. It has music going and difference license plates hung up. Not far from the beach either so a quick walk if you take it to go. Service was quick and very friendly. Definitely recommend! I wish this place as closer to where I live! You can also get merch if you want.

The iconic burger joint in OB! Great food and atmosphere, though a little pricey. Yet the fries are bomb and th onion rings are perfect crisp, great portions too. My wife has known them for a long time and I used to hit up when I was skateboarding in town. Always a good grab.

If you are looking for a local burger joint, this is the place! The staff are super friendly and service is pretty quick. I appreciated the different burger size options: mini, single or double. This was my second time here and I will definitely be back each time I’m in San Diego! The atmosphere is very fun with lots of old license plates as decorations.

The burgers and shakes are amazing! The portions are huge, the milkshakes are flavorful, and they throw a heaping scoop of strawberry ice cream on top of the shake; the burgers are delicious, some of the best burgers I’ve had in south Cali. The only letdown is that it gets a little crowded and parking is a nightmare. It gets busy and hectic, staff are very welcoming and friendly.

This place was suggested by our Uber driver. This was one of the best hamburger places I have been too. I would highly recommend it if you are visiting San Diego. The food tasted great and our server was amazing. Plus being right next to the beach made the atmosphere perfect. Especially if you sit facing the outside. 10 out of 10 place!
