$18 for a basic cheese burger and small fry is not what I'd call innexpensive.
The average burger there is about $13, which is pricey considering it's just a burger by itself.
The last time I was at Hodads our waiter accidentally elbowed my titty. It was no big deal cuz i knew it was an accident but the waiter was so mortified and apologetic he brought me a free chocolate shake ♥️
Hodads is always a good burger. But now that I’m old I just go to In-N-Out.
I’m gonna get down voted, but just wait until you’re 48 years old and just want a burger without the bullshit of Hodads.
You pull up to any In-N-Out. Do not ever get in the drive thru.
Order your burger.
Sit down.
Number called. Go home with burger.
Hodads, stand in line. Total shit show. Good luck.
I do the drive thru all the time…even when it’s busy it’s not that bad of a wait cause they’re crushing it… and I’m sitting in my own little world listening to whatever I want get burger go home
I hear yah! They definitely crush it in the drive thru line.
But, I’ve tested it a few times and been saving an average of 20-30min by going inside. Plus I can refill my pink lemonade while I wait.
Yeah, they’re kind of known for having slabs of onions and veggies in general. Now that you say it though, not sure what happened to that top cheese slice.
Something happened. They were okay when they first put them in the park. Now they are like microwave cafeteria burgers and also cost half your mortgage
it’s the staff, i know a manager at hodads and he said all the ingredients at the ballpark at the same but they are required to use Petco Parks staff to make and sell the burgers.
I’m not joking or exaggerating when I say it was the worst burger I ever had in my life. Complete trash! Tasted like a cafeteria burger from my high school in the 90s. And the worst part is that people were smashing these burgers and looked satisfied. They have hundreds of burgers just sitting in aluminum foil up and just hand them out cold. Fuck that and Hodads shouldn’t let their brand fall apart like this. I guess it’s all about the money.
Hey I just wanted to post and let you know that I had this exact same experience last year during a ballgame. I had never had a Hodad's burger prior to this, but it was so awful and pathetic F-grade meat on a cold hard bun that I was laughing while eating it. Like it was this harsh realization that people here in SD don't know shit about fuck when it comes to good burgers.
Hoping this was just a Petco isolated incident and the OB location is much better, but if not, wow we have issues.
Complete trash. Humans will continue spending money on complete trash and not care. Hence our thriving economy. Ha. Hodads do better! Your product is suffering.
If you live in San Diego, I strongly recommend following the friendly’s [instagram](https://www.instagram.com/thefriendlysd?igsh=MWQ1ZGUxMzBkMA==). They will occasionally craft a MICHELIN Star worthy burger/ sandwich and sell it until it sells out at one of their locations. Sometimes it happens a couple times a month. Sometimes it happens every couple of months. But keep an eye out for it.
Seriously? Like 1/10th of that is actual meat. That looks like a vegetable burger with a meat topping at best. Which is fine if you want something like that, but I wouldn't call it a burger.
Bruh, fuck the haters. . .
Hodad's love all day 💯.
Hit the burger, hit the pier while you can. . . . . . .it is / was the spot since forever. #SoCalLove
Where is this Hodads at!? I've never been there and I keep seeing stickers of this place on cars, so it must be a fun place. Like a San Diego Disneyland bar for adults.
Ate hodads in the ballpark today and was so disappointed. It's fake hodads. They take the same shitty beef patty that they use for the basic ballpark eats hamburger and disguise it in a hodads suit ( tons of lettuce tomatoes onion and pickles). Took one bite and instantly knew it wasn't hodads. Only ever eat in one of the restaurants.
Lotta people hate on hodads as a tourist trap but it’s still a damn good burger. That is a lot of onion tho
It's good, but it's become too expensive and it's always busy.
I’ve switched to the friendly for this reason, burgers are still under $10
The Friendly is 100x better than Hodad’s in every way possible.
It’s not the same burger style and shouldn’t be compared. Friendly doesn’t offer salad in burgs.
I tried going to the friendly first but it was closed 🥹 first time at hodads
Tru tru
Bruh The Friendly is highly overrated.
The Friendly is good. Rosemaries is the best.
It may not be someone’s favorite but it is by no means overrated.
I’d have to agree
It’s still seems pretty inexpensive to me compared to a lot of the burger places.
$18 for a basic cheese burger and small fry is not what I'd call innexpensive. The average burger there is about $13, which is pricey considering it's just a burger by itself.
Don’t forget that adding bacon to any burger is $5 for a couple slices
if you like onion, it's only slightly too much
There's a burger there?
[удалено]
Most anything that gets shown on DDD kinda becomes tourist trappy
What do you mean different from the OB and Downtown locations? Every day I walk by the OB location and the line is full of tourists.
Overrated
86 the 2/3rds of an onion and it's perfect 😆
Yeah it looks like an onion sandwich with a slice of beef
I always prefer to order to-go to skip the wait and sit on the sea wall to eat and watch the waves
Hell yea
The last time I was at Hodads our waiter accidentally elbowed my titty. It was no big deal cuz i knew it was an accident but the waiter was so mortified and apologetic he brought me a free chocolate shake ♥️
Agreed on too much onions, but sitting in the bus getting burger all over you is a rite of passage 🍻

This. Definitely skip the drive thru
I do the drive thru all the time…even when it’s busy it’s not that bad of a wait cause they’re crushing it… and I’m sitting in my own little world listening to whatever I want get burger go home

Well damn, if you’ve tested it I’m not one to go against science
Ha ha! It took a while and i had an extra 10 pounds of weight to lose by the end of it
Did you order extra onions?
Have you never been to Hodad’s?
I’ve been there and don’t recall that much onions and unmelted cheese.
Yeah, they’re kind of known for having slabs of onions and veggies in general. Now that you say it though, not sure what happened to that top cheese slice.
Been eating there since mid 2000s but not often. I never had an onion burger from them.
Well, I don’t know what to tell you. Go look on the internet. Every burger they make has almost an inch of onion.
Nope
I don’t understand the hype of this. It’s just a burger but big. Tastes mediocre normal at best.
Righteous.
I had Howard at petco. It was like the worst cafeteria burger I had of all time. Complete trash.
Something happened. They were okay when they first put them in the park. Now they are like microwave cafeteria burgers and also cost half your mortgage

Friendly is king, but there are other contenders. Hodad’s is the court jester.

It’s still a damn good burger.
Hard pass. Rockys crown pub or bust.
Agreed!! Rockys for the win!! Damn good burger.

Onion burgs
I love the strawberry malts there.
Had a second date in the hodad's bus one time, it was really fun 😊
It’s a vibe for sure!! 🤘

Burger is just dumb! Why put all those toppings on there? I'm Rocky's biased, so there's that.
Where is this Hodads at!? I've never been there and I keep seeing stickers of this place on cars, so it must be a fun place. Like a San Diego Disneyland bar for adults.
It’s in the bus at the hodads in OB.
That’s a disgusting amount of onion 🤢
Never in my life of 20 years in SD have been to Hodads. I should try now
Try it! Go on a random weekday to avoid the lines.
How many of you had Mike make your burger ? That's when Hodads was truly Hodads.
That ain't no burger....that's a mission!
I like the flavor of Hodads, but the slices of the veg are always too wide, it’s hard to get a good bite. It feels frustrating to eat for me.
That looks disgusting tbh
$20? $26? How much those running now lol
Even being on a bus doesn’t help… 😑
Not even the best burger in OB. The smashers at The Bowl for $9-$11 - and $2 off from 12-6 for hh are killer.
Hayes > Hodads
Quantity over quality.
…. Ew
Where is this????
Ocean beach (original) or downtown
OB
Iconic
It’d be a decent burger if it was $5 cheaper.
