The Counter Custom Burgers - Irvine

Amazing! It comes from someone who usually doesn't like burgers. My husband and I went to the counter after we wanted something else, we looked at Zamato and he chose the counter. I wasn't all that tried, but why not, like I had no ideas about where to go. The counter was busy (a good sign) even so, we sat pretty fast, the server gave us the departure, how to order and then we chose our burgers, I chose the bison with a thousand island dressing, provolone cheese, pickles and French pommes. I also ordered garlic fries on the side. It took a little to get our food, which is why I couldn't rate it with 5. Once I got my burger and took my first bite I had done, I didn't drop him, it was delicious! I ate it all within minutes (I recognize) and even ordered a second later, I would not have believed that I would have made myself sick, I would have ordered a second burger. So instead of ordering another burger, I decided to stay with my fries that were also very tasty, I ate them all too. I've stuffed and very happy. We're going back. Thanks for the best burger I had in my life.

Jeff Weinstein opened The Counter in Santa Monica, CA in 2003 as one of the first premium burger joints. Since then, The Counter has opened 39 locations including The Counter in the Woodbury Town Center in Irvine. This location opened on November 20, 2007 and is still going strong with a queue of hungry patrons during the lunch hour. Ralphs is the main anchor to this shopping center, but in the middle of the parking lot, is an island of food choices like Panera, Tutti Frutti, Niko Niko, to name a few. The Counter stands out with their diner look and aroma of burgers being grilled.

Amazing burger joint. If you've never been, this place is definitely worth checking out. You can build pretty much any burger you can imagine. Good service, nice atmosphere, and a lot of different items to chose from. Also really good milkshakes!

Burger madness!. I first ate at the Counter in northern ca. I was happy to stumble on one down here and have to say I really love the place. The customizability and options for the menu really allow you to make any type of burger you want. Filling it out on the table pads honestly makes ordering so much simpler because the staff would probably have trouble with so many custom orders. Overall the burgers are really good. The service at this location was ok but could of been better. It has a good looking bar and the drinks are reasonably priced. I would definitely recommend this joint to anyone looking for a good burger. You will not be disappointed.

Great burgers, fries, onion rings. Only complaint is that the buns are too small for all the toppings you can put on the burger
