I heard about Hodad's on the Tonight Show as Guy Fieri told Leno his five most favorite burgers in the USA. Since I fly to San Diego monthly, I finally got a chance to go there a couple times. The burgers are lucious, the shakes are a felony, and the sides are good too. The burgers and fries are so... More

There is always a long line at Hodad's to get in so we had never gone before. Saw that there was a short line the day that we were to leave so gave it a try. Got to sit at the coveted window seat. Good experience.

Six Canadians went for the best burgers EVER!! We tried everything from a single cheeseburger, to a double bacon cheeseburger with added pastrami, to a shake and a malt too! We have NEVER had such a pleasant/memorable experience as we did at the original Hodad's! Thanks to Food Network recommendation we had to try this one! Stop by, you won't... More

We drove from the airport directly to Hodad's and it did not disappoint. The waitress kindly directed us to share items because the portions were huge. Milkshake, burgers and onion rings were all great. Kids loved the atmosphere, plus it's a short walk to the beach.

The burgers here are really good, but if you want to skip the meat they make a really good cheese sandwich. My favorite is cheese, tomato, and pineapple. So good!

Another DDD place. This one was a hit. It was everything we expected. The atmosphere is worth a visit. All kinds of surfing memorabilia on the walls. They even have a VW bus booth. The food is simple, yet AWESOME! Fantastic burgers! The staff are great and work hard to make you happy.

This place is great! It's in the heart of Ocean Beach (just a block or two away from the ocean). We sat on barstools facing the street and watched the eclectic crowds walk by. First, the service here is great. The people are friendly and helpful, which is not always what you see with hip restaurants. My wife and I... More
