Hodad's Downtown

We missed lunch on our way to San Diego, so we did a quick search for burgers and came up with Hodad's. Great choice! The burger was huge with fresh and tasty toppings. Onion rings were a little ordinary, but the little wedgie fries were tasty too. The Rock and roll bar looking interior was cool too and the servers all friendly.

The food here was delicious! We were recently visiting SD and finally got the opportunity to try! The burgers are delicious and huge. We ordered the wedges along with onion rings. It was a lot of food. Definitely will be returning whenever we are in that area.

Woow the burgers and sides were huge and super tasty, amazing! The food was way more greasy than necessary but if you don't mind that I definitely recommend! Staff was very friendly and the vibes were very positive.

Visited Hodad's during my first visit to San Diego. This is very funky and trendy place that didn't disappoint. I had the recommended Guido Burger 🍔 and this burger is not for the faint of heart. It included pastrami, burger patty, cheese and toppings upon toppings. Highly recommend but remember to pace yourself...it's a marathon not a sprint!!! We also finished off our meal with an order of half rings and fries. Cooked and seasoned to perfection. Will definitely visit again when back in San Diego. Try it and you won't be dissappointed!

This place checks off the big 3. Great food, friendly servers, with a really cool atmosphere from the music, to the movie choices on the tv in the corner and the stickers over just about every inch of the place. Bring a huge appetite because the portions are monstrous and the flavors are so good you will try to eat it all! The onion rings and shakes are a must. The burgers have tons of fresh toppings. You will not go home disappointed no matter what your order here.

Funky(in a good way) place to enjoy an outstanding burger. The place is adorned with license plates from all over and stickers everywhere else. Eclectic (again in a good way) music playing with excellent, helpful service! I had the double bacon burger with avocado(their biggest burger) with a 1/2 order of fries. The burger was massive (yes, I did finish it but not gonna lie, probably shouldn’t have) but the flavors were excellent and the high-quality ingredients were obvious. Will definitely dine here again… cool vibes, excellent service and outstanding food!

Hodad’s is amazing!! I went there while visiting sand Diego and the vibe is EVERYTHING!!! The service was super cool the waiters totally matched the vibe and I loved looking around the wall at all the license plates and the food was honestly spectacular totally recommend!!

Hi y’all, so that was my first in a Hodads & I discover this restaurant during my road trip. I tried the famous Guido Burger (in double, I was really hungry), if you look for some pastrami and delicious beef it’s definitely the perfect choice. But take it in normal if you’re not a great eater or you’ll don’t finish it. With that. I got these oignons rings, and The most delicious than I’ve eat in my life. I was about to try this restaurant during my trip cause I’ m content creator Follow me on Instagram : @mr.chacal For some travel & entertainment contents. During your meal, you receive an autocollant than you could scotch inside of the restaurant to participate of the inside decors. Pretty cool to remember your Dinner like that.

Came to this place about 13 years ago and it didn't disappoint again. Triple D spots are a hit or miss but Hodads is a hit. The energy in the restaurant is infectious. The gentleman who greeted us was awesome and we had a "cool shirt off". The music is blasting and people seem to be enjoying themselves. Try to sit at the window if you can it's fantastic. The food was pretty good. The ranch tasted a little off for my son and I, but the onion rings were delicious. I'm not an OB ever but both times I've been I ate at Hodads.

I've heard some good things about this place so I decided to stop by in the downtown location. I have to say the area is not the business but once you go inside, the staff is friendly and welcoming. The interior is cool and has such a retro vibe. I got the mini single burger which wasn't so mini. I had a feeling it was going to be the size of a regular burger. My bf got the single cheeseburger. We got some onion rings as well. We both enjoyed our burgers but believe it is pretty pricey for pretty regular tasting burgers. They were good but nothing that special about them. But at least the burgers are a good size.

Enjoyed this place -- good burgers, good fries and onion rings, friendly staff, and fun decor and vibe inside. Has a good selection of beer. The milkshakes looked huge. Would recommend and go back again.

First time here & omg it was off the chain Amazing. The onion rings were a huge hit. The burgers are MASSIVE so come hungry. Its so good

Yeah, I believe the hype now! Food: 10/10 Service: 10/10 Ambiance: 8/10 Can't say enough great things about this place and burger! So glad I was able to try it during my visit to SD. Yes, it's pricey, but I think worth the stop to try. Grab a beer and that's how you have a good time here!

The place is very dirty, they never cleaned the windows, I couldn't see the street outside while I was sitting there. The tables and chairs are veeeeeert sticky and disgusting. The burgers looked fried because of the excessive use of vegetable oil, the fries were too old taste Won't be there again because they didn't hire anyone to clean the restaurant

People were friendly, but the burger was just alright. Good size. Full of toppings. But not super tasty in terms of meat. Onion rings had a great dipping sauce. If in the area and wanting a burger, I'd head to bottle rocket a few blocks away.

Holy cow. That was awesome. Guido burger was amazing. And then the onion rings were perfect. Now the price is steep, but one of the rare times where it was totally worth it. Already looking forward to next time.

Tried Hodad's for the first time and went for the double bacon cheeseburger with onion rings. First off, the onion rings were fantastic--crispy, flavorful, and just what you'd hope for in a side. The burger itself had good flavors, but I'll be honest, it was a bit of a challenge to eat. It was incredibly sloppy, with toppings and sauce oozing out with every bite. I ended up losing a lot of the burger as I was trying to enjoy it. I get the sense that this is what Hodad's is going for--a messy, over-the-top burger experience. Overall, I'd give it a 4 out of 10. The flavors were on point, but the messiness made it less enjoyable for me. If you like your burgers big, bold, and a bit chaotic, Hodad's might be right up your alley.

Best burger in so cal! Service and ambiance were cool. Staff was very nice. The prices were great value. Looking forward to coming back.

I recently had the pleasure of indulging in the best burger I've ever tasted, and it was an experience worth sharing. This culinary masterpiece featured a juicy, perfectly seasoned beef patty, cooked to perfection with a slight char. In the outside and a tender, flavorful interior. Topped with melted cheese, a lot of crispy bacon, fresh shredded lettuce, ripe tomatoes and a dollop of delicious sauce, every bite was a harmonious blend of textures and tastes. Ask for grilled onions. The soft toasted but held it all together. Accompanied by a side of frings (Fries and onion rings) this burger was a true delight for the senses and an unforgettable gastronomic adventure. Paired with a house blonde beer and you'll be in a heavenly state of mind body and soul. Oh and the service was great! Even recommended other brewery's afterwards. 5 stars all around!!

Arrived right when they opened and was seated right away. You choose a seat then they take your order. The menu is fairly simple. We opted for a pastrami double cheeseburger to share between two people. Our food came out quickly and was fresh and hot. The fries/wedges were outstanding. Crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The burger itself was heavy but tasty. I didnt think the pastrami added anything. I would just get a regular cheeseburger next time. The burger was about $17. Overall good vibes and good food. Not the best burger ive ever had or even top 5 but still tasty. The fries are elite!

This is the spot for massive, messy burgers. So good, and the onion rings are on point. It's super laid-back, but it can get pretty crowded and loud. Definitely worth the wait if you're craving a killer burger. Service was excellent.

Meh! First off fair warning this place is insanely loud , and sticky. There is a large group of aggressive homeless people directly across the street. Food came out fast. Strawberry milkshake was great. I got the Guido burger. Juicy but that's where it stops. I found the flavor profile fine but not like BAM, and the bread just melts away due to the wetness of the burger. Onion rings were alright.

Hodad's, it's been a while.... Their OB OG location was one of those places that I remember from back when I was in San Diego the first time. Though the memory is hazy, I still recall the long line, huge burgers (and onion rings), and iffy bathrooms. It was one of the must-go-to spots if in SD county. Fast forward a decade (or more), and there are other places that go big or even bigger with their burger, so it was about the time to give Hodad's another go and see how it measures in post-COVID 2024 on a recent San Diego trip. For one, the downtown location is not as busy. As a matter of fact, they were fairly slow on a Sunday evening and we were seated immediately. The parking is still a B, but not as impossible as in OB. Knowing better, I went with "mini" bacon cheeseburger, which is (of course) not mini by anyone else's standards but Hodad's. Add some Onion Rings and this is still one of the best burgers you can find anywhere. One thing missing to make this meal a wrap is beer. And Hodad's is now a brewery as well. Not sure if they contract brew but their Local WC IPA surely hit the spot. Not the best beer in SD (obviously) but very decent nevertheless. At the end of the day, I can only conclude that Hodad's still has it. The burger scene has evolved and there might be bigger and fancier places than Hodad's now, but for that authentic SD experience, this is (still) where it's at. I can only hope that it's not another decade to the next visit...

4 stars as service was great. Fun vibe in place but I think food wise they rely too much on previous hype. Burgers are not seasoned well and were dry. Ingredients were ok. Nothing special. Fries were delicious. The coating on onion rings is a weird texture. Expensive and not worth it. Too many other burger places around. Time to step it up.

We weren't sure about going here when we seen all the windows blacked out but as soon as we walked in it was like ahhhhhh.. such a cool atmosphere and was greeted with a smile and service immediately. We've experienced the other location but this one is by far the best. The tater chip strips are amazing!(I totally feel like all other chicken strips are just wrong after having these) The guido burger is mouthwatering and definitely worth the cost. It came with a healthy portion of mini potatoe wedges having the best flavor. This is a go to place for sure! Thank you for being you Hodads!

It's been MANY years since I've been to Hodad's. This place has left an everlasting impression on me, but I haven't been back because of how saturated the one in PB is and the one in downtown is just surrounded by homeless. Food is still consistent! My bacon cheese burger was so delicious and juicy! We got the frings to share and it was huge. A party of 5 could share this. Service was consistent and our server was super nice and checked on us frequently.

Excellent and fast service, damn the in tap beers are soo good! I think I found one of my new fav Hazys (HESHER) I always forget just how damn good these burgers are with how many we have in the area. The decor inside the Resturant is so fun and I really love the stickers and license plates all over the walls

Same old Hodad's but in downtown San Diego. Spacious, but it is not a large establishment. It is not located in the best area, as there are many homeless outside and parking can be an issue. Service was a bit slow for us, but still pretty on point. Burgers were good and so were the onion rings! I feel the burgers are pretty good, while the two signature menu items the blue cheese burger and the guido are above and beyond everything else...

Hodad's is such a chill place to dine at, plus it's Guy Fieri approved LOL! Their hamburgers are tasty and you need to order their milkshakes - they sure give you a big portion!! Other than that, I Highly recommend their onion rings and french fries! You can order BOTH- just tell the waiter you want to order "Frings."

Hodad's you don't have a designated spot for parking, and it does get busy in downtown; but there are meters and paid lots so I won't be bothered by one minor inconvenience. THE BURGERS HERE ARE NEXT LEVEL! Probably one of my top 5 burger spots if not top 3. Used to be a local to San Diego and the ocean beach or downtown location both always impressed. A malt is a decent size and shareable; or more than enough for the ice cream/shake lover. The blue jay is my fave even though I don't like blue cheese the one used here isn't bad tasting. If that's not your style a mini or regular size cheeseburger, hamburger, or bacon cheeseburger all hit the spot. Fries are potato wedges Onion rings are good too both with ranch of course :) A good must try spot in San Diego and when I visit now and time allows it's definitely in my list of places I gotta potentially eat at. Curious about the chicken strips lol but the burgers hands down 10/10 Oh and the wall is decorated with custom license plates that differ between both locations.

Came to the Hodad's location in downtown SD, inside is very artful with a bunch of license plates, pictures, stickers, etc. My girlfriend and I were seated right away and our server was super chill and even asked if we wanted to sit inside the car! I ordered the guido burger with a basket of fries and it was reallyyyy good. The pastrami is cooked perfectly and it's filled with a good amount of sauce. The basket of fries/wedges was also really good, thick, crispy, not soggy or unflavored at all. However, the patty itself I noticed was thin and not too juicy I felt like the pastrami took over the patty and whole burger. My girlfriend ordered the single cheeseburger with blue cheese and they definitely filled the burger with blue cheese as you can see in the picture lol. The onion rings were also really good, super crisp, tasted fresh, not soggy on the inside. For the chocolate malt, nothing too special it's a good chocolate malt with syrup. Overall, the burgers and basket of fries/rings are flavorful and huuuuge. A single patty burger will fill you up for sure. Definitely a cool spot to visit!!

Their burgers, fries, and onion rings are worth the drive looking for parking around downtown.

Upon arriving my co worker and I were greeted/seated quickly. The server was really nice and he helped us with explaining the menu. The style of the restaurant is like a cool and fun burger shop. Stickers covering the tables and lots of pictures and decor within the restaurant. The food was good it's a classic burger and the fry's were chefs kiss‼ I will definitely be back great service and food

A San Diego staple. The food at Hodad's is always good. This location is conveniently located downtown close to where I live. It has all the charm you'd expect. The only reason it's not a 5 star review is because unfortunately there are better burgers downtown. Hodad's a great old school diner quality, and sometimes that's what you want but in a city with so many options it gets a little lost. The price is also a bit high for the quality.

Hodad's is a great San Diego joint that pays homage to the surf culture and serves up some delicious food! It's been a few years since I've been to this location and it was surprisingly not too crowded at lunchtime on a Friday. It's a laidback place with stickers and unique license plates lining the walls, not to mention one of those classic CA surf vans that you can sit in. Food here is delicious, the burgers are large and packed with delicious goodness (I had to smash it down so it would fit in my mouth). I highly recommend getting everything that it comes with to get the full flavor. The fringes (onion rings & fries) are amazing - fried to crispy perfection and comes with BBQ and ranch dipping sauces. Note that The fries are more like potato wedges. I have also heard that the milkshakes are amazing but I unfortunately can't have icecream so I'll take everyone else's word for it.

Happen to be in downtown for comicon and after 8 years find myself coming back here. Such a great place very chill free and relaxed environment. All the servers were just nice and easy going and in such a great mood. The burgers were nicely sized even though they do add a lot of onions but well worth the money. The chicken sandwich was also really good and reputable to most places around. They also have a good beer selection I tried one of there Mexican lagers brewed locally and it was amazing. My son just loved the place.

We tried this as a mini-DDD road trip. The place was empty at lunch time which surprised me as a DDD place. The ambiance is cool subway eclectic. I had the Guido Burger that Guy Fieri had. The Pastrami was way too salty and killed the burger. The wife had the Blue Jay burger and that was pretty tasty. All in all, just a meh. Hope they make it.

Went to Hodad's before a concert cause it was surprisingly empty for a Friday night, guess cause of the holidays. I ordered the single w onion rings. The burger was delicious and the onions rings crispy n yummy. I understand everything is expensive now but $20 and a tip for burger & rings is a bit steep.

Hodad's is an excellent spot for burgers and milkshakes. They're always consistent in terms of quality and although it might seem pricey, the portion sizes are huge. Service is relatively quick and the food is made fresh. I usually get a bacon cheese burger and a side of frings (onion rings and fries best of both worlds). Highly recommend sharing one of their milkshakes since you'll probably be full from the food. I've also tried the Guido burger (inspired by Guy Fieri) and that thing was a heart attack but worth it. There are a couple of booths and tables for customers and I also quite enjoyed the skater/surfer/SoCal theme with punk rock music playing in the background.

What can I say about Hodads. Excellent grunge place to go to. Outstanding burgers amazing out of this world. Chocolate malts and spectacular onion rings. We went to the downtown San Diego location, and the service was outstanding. Getting to the door can be a little bit of an obstacle course with the amount of homeless people, all along the streets leading to the entrance. It is well worth the gauntlet that you have to go through to get to the front door because of the outstanding food and the terrific customer service. I highly recommend going to Hodads if you've never been and returning if it's been a while since your last visit. Make sure you order the chocolate malt with your burger. You can thank me later .

This stop has been years in the making for my wife and I. We are big DDD fans so this was a dream come true. The ambiance was immaculate. Punk and reggae music pumping. The service was quick and attentive, everyone was extremely pleasant. Now to the food.... Good Lord. This is a top 5 burger I've ever had. Everything was well seasoned and hot. The bacon patty is a nice touch as it gives you bacon in every bite. They pile on the fixings so be prepared. We did not try a beer as we were nursing a bit of a hangover but the burger set us right. Couldn't recommend more!

We arrived about 10 mins after opening. Only two other tables were occupied at that time. It was mostly full, except for bar seating, by the time we left an hour later. Everyone's description about the location and interior is pretty spot on. Beachy feel and stickers everywhere. The menu is simple and easy to choose from. They have a separate beer menu which include local brews. I had a hard time deciding between mini or single burger, but ended with a mini bacon cheeseburger. It was the perfect size us since we shared everything. My partner got the Blue Jay burger and it was pretty large. We also added a basket of fries and a basket of onion rings. The burgers were cooked well and very juicy. I got it with everything on it because that's how I believe a burger should be eaten. The bacon patty was out of this world - crispy and available with every bite. The blue cheese spread on the Blue Jay Burger was a little overpowering. It would have been more complimentary if they had used half the amount. Fries and Onion rings had the right amount of crisp. Overall, a solid burger joint and great recommendation from Triple D's. If I were to revisit in the future, I might just go with the BLT.

This was my first time at Hodad's and let me tell you ... they did not disappoint !!!!! We waited about 5 mins to be seat, surprisingly it was a lot of people there on a Monday. Our waiter was very friendly and patient with us. All the items on the menu seemed sooo good !! It was definitely hard to pick an item to try. After a little deliberation, I ordered the mini bacon cheeseburger with pastrami ! My food was AMAZING!!!!!!!! Full of flavor and grease like I like it !!! The French fries were absolutely fresh and piping hot !!! The ambiance was very welcoming ! Very energetic ! I loved the stickers and license plates as the decor. Definitely reminded me of a Triple D place by Guy.

One of my fav burger joints when I lived in SD. I like this spot over the OB location because it easier to get and parking is just as challenging. If you love bacon this is the spot for you. The bacon burger has an entire bacon patty added to it. Even the mini bacon burger is so big I have difficulty putting my mouth around it. We usually order the half Oder of frings and shake but we were not that hungry. They also have beer here which goes well with the bacon burger. There is also the Guido burger created by Guy Fieri which also good. The BLT is good if you want the all bacon experience. The Tuna sandwich is ok if you are not in the moot for meat. Hodads is a must try spot if you are in San Diego but and really hungry.

So glad we found this established burger joint in downtown SD. The atmospheric is very youth oriented with stickers everywhere and rock music playing loudly. I knew it was only gonna get better when they brought out this monster chocolate milkshake with a big scoop floating on top. The burgers were perfectly well done and the steak fries were almost perfect. The service was pretty quick. We all left thoroughly stuffed.

Good vibes and better burgers. Their bacon is amazingly done; they boil it and then cook it with the burger.

No trip to Gaslamp is complete without a visit to Hodad's! It's my favorite spot for onion rings. Their burgers are delicious as well - my husband and I love the Blue Jay (even though I don't even like bleu cheese!). Super easy to call in / place an online order (when available) and the staff is always friendly at pick-up. Their fries (potato wedges) are good as well - super filling & perfect the next day after a night out ;)

Met with a work associate for lunch at the downtown location. Street parking on a weekday a bit hard to find. Promptly greeted and sat in a booth. Our server quickly approached and took our drink order. No beer this round, but got a soda water in a glass. I ordered the single cheeseburger with bacon. Huge. And very good. Place is very colorful. Recommend while in SD.

This place sells vibesss. The music goes hard and it's loud, so not the most family-friendly spot. Parking is street parking, so you will face the same problems you get in the rest of downtown San Diego, plus there are a lot of homeless people around. The portion sizes are huge! I didn't understand why they had mini burgers before, now I do. I ordered the double cheeseburger. It was a solid burger and fairly priced. My partner has the Blue Jay burger and it was gigantic. The layer of blue cheese was, dare I say it, too much. He couldn't finish it because of how rich it was and he loves blue cheese. The onion rings were also delicious - crispy, flavorful, you don't lose the onion. The malted strawberry shake was also big, just a tad too thick, completely undrinkable out of a straw. I see why this place is so famous, though I wouldn't go out of my way for it.

The burger was excellent. The service was good. But the price??? Oppressive is the word that springs to mind. $27.69 for a bacon cheese burger and and a small draft beer. No fries. No onion rings. Burger. Beer. That's it. They also have the audacity to tack on a "service charge" to take care of me sitting at the bar. They are at the absolute upper limit for pricing and that's why they get one star. If it had come in at around twenty it would have been okay. But just shy of thirty is, as we say in the old country, taking the piss out of the customers. Plenty of other - and equally decent establishments are charging much less. Avoid.

Goood burger loud atmosphere but fun! My burger was perfect sized my friends a was so if he couldn't fit in mouth ha.

4/29/24, I arrived there at 12:10pm, plenty of open seating. I selected the double cheese burger with American cheese with grilled onions. It took about 15 minutes for the order to arrive. It was so tall my mouth couldn't take a bite. Also, the burger was very messy. The burger tasted good. Except the hamburger bun just tore apart. 4 out of 5 stars. You have to find metered street parking. The max is 2 hours. There were lots of homeless persons in the area outside the biz asking for money. I wouldn't go there at night time. Inside was very clean and interesting. See photos.

From time to time I get a craving for burgers, maybe twice a month. We were in Gaslamp for our dinner reservation when suddenly I had this craving for a Burger, this time I wanted to try the one that I always see at Ocean Beach called HODAD'S , but we were already in Gaslamp and we weren't gonna make it in time to drive back to Ocean Beach 'coz it's almost their closing time, plus I heard that there were 2 branches nearby: One inside the Stadium and one in Broadway San diego . I chose the one in Broadway San Diego 'coz it looks like a bigger space among their branches. When we arrived I didn't really like the Vibe of the surrounding area, there weren't many open businesses around, mostly old buildings around. This is the kind of area that I will only visit during daytime, but never at Night time 'coz there's a few homeless people scattered around or laying down on peoples way walking. But the Inside of the Hodad's completely made me forget how it looked outside. The inside is Big and feels welcoming. We were greeted right away and were told us we can sit anywhere. We got the menu quick and ordered: *GUIDO BURGER *BLUE JAY *DOUBLE BACON CHEESE BURGER *HALF ONION RING The Half Onion Ring we ordered was already a good portion for the 3 of us. When the DOUBLE BACON CHEESE BURGER came it was the biggest, as in the Biggest among the burgers we ordered, I even had a hard time eating it 'coz it's big! My double bacon cheeseburger Burger was good, tender, and juicy! I would order the same Burger on my next visit. My Son's and husband's Burgers were good too, but theirs were just normal sizes, but they still enjoyed them! I will still choose this location despite of parking situation or the not so pleasing surrounding area 'coz this Hodads here is so much bigger compared to their other location. Parking is kinda hard to find. Food and service is great.

My husband and I went here on a date after watching a theatre show next door. It wasn't busy and we ended up sitting at the bar. This was a Saturday around 5:30 PM. We got our drinks right away and our food was out at a timely manner. Our server was young and when my husband asked her how the cider was she said "I don't know because I'm not 21." lol. My husband ordered the double cheeseburger and I ordered a single cheeseburger with all the comings. The food was delicious and we definitely had a good time. The atmosphere was great as it was not too crowded or loud.

Cute, grungy atmosphere. Super nice server, Josue (sorry if that's spelled wrong)! My mini bacon cheeseburger was huge! Chocolate shake also huge! And we ordered the Frings, a basket overflowing with fries and onion rings. Good food and great service, we'll definitely be back next time we're in the area.

Friends, out-of-towner here! Was looking for a good burger joint and came across this place on Yelp!! As soon as I looked at other Yelpers photos, I was SOLD. We walked right in and weee quickly greeted and sat. Our server Vera was beyond friendly and helpful, making some great recommendations. I had the keto version of the double, which was "onion wrapped" with grilled onions. CHEF's KISS!!!! This burger exploded with flavor, and was just dreamy!!! Folks, if you're in San Diego, try this place out. Ask for Vera, she was fantastic and just so very nice!!

The ambience is very relaxed and casual. The music is very good (great for my millennial taste) and the service is friendly. The hamburger is big!! I ordered a mini cheeseburger and It is pretty much a regular size in other places. The fries are also good and a huge portion.
