Norm's Hamburger Burbank Reviews
Norm's Hamburger is a local burger joint and Burbank staple since 1985. It is a true time capsule with its letter board menus, vintage cola signs, and wood panel walls. Their burgers are fresh and made to order and their prices are some of the best in town. It was $11 for their double cheeseburger combo, which cost less than McDonalds combos and comes with fresher food and more generous portions. The staff is friendly, the food is fast, and the the atmosphere takes you right back to the 1980s. A few things to note: Ranch and salsa are 50 cent extra. Also, the drive through is a little unorthodox. Instead of ordering at a speaker, you call them on the phone using the number posted in the drive-thru lane.
Very old-school diner vibes and I love it. Their breakfast burritos are packed and I love supporting raza 💪 delicious food and their fresh salsa is so good and packs a good punch. Would love to come back and try their other items. Thank you guys 🙏
Love this place so much. High quality food at reasonable price in classic diner low key atmosphere. The breakfast burrito and Salsa is insanely good
I absolutely love this place, I particularly love their amazing Breakfast Burritos. I usually get Bacon and Sausage and it has Never disappointed. I started coming here in 2017 and at the time The Breakfast Burritos were like 8.50 and now in 2025 They are only 10.50! This means it's only gone up $2 over 8 years which I love! Staff is always happy and helpful and Service is quick:) I recommend calling in your order for pickup especially for morning runs:)
1) Food: I ordered the BLT with extra tomato; it tasted great and had the perfect texture. I paid ~$8 for it. 2) Service: The staff was able to carry out my order quickly and efficiently. 3) There is plenty of both indoor and outdoor seating, but it's a little hot inside even with the big fan.
Your classic hole in the wall spot, it’s been a staple of my time here in Burbank. Definitely love getting their breakfast burritos as well as the gyros. It’s a definite spot to choose if you’re looking for a well priced eat it up later location that doesn’t have much of the hoopla that a fancy place will charge you twice as much for.
Norm's isn't much to look at. Don't let looks fool you. I've passed by this place for years. "What a dive." Boy was I wrong. My daughter and I stopped here today for lunch. It was after peak lunch hour, around 1:30PM. It was crowded and there a line (good sign). The place was clean, no trash or greasy floors, sparky stuff was properly sparkly(good sign). There was a A rating in the window (good sign). My daughter and I got in line and noticed there was laughter coming from the kitchen(interesting). The cashier served two patrons and knew them by name(cool). While ordering our food I noticed that kitchen and prep areas looked clean(nice). The cooks were fast, efficient and smiling(nice). My daughter ordered the avocado, bacon, cheeseburger with fries and onion rings. I ordered a gyro and onion rings. We took our drinks and sat outside expecting to be called. Our food was brought to the table by a nice, polite young lady with a pleasant smile who bid us, "Enjoy your meal."(big surprise) The Food. First, there's a lot of it. Second, it's very good. The onion rings do not come from a bag. They are made fresh, from scratch. The meat in my gyro was grilled beautifully with nice crispy edges. The veggies were cold, crunchy and fresh. The cucumber dressing was either homemade or high end jar brand like Marie's. My daughter is a huge fan of a competing burger joint on Glenoaks and Magnolia. Same type of operation. She says her burger beats theirs hands down. It was well cooked, bacon was crispy, avocado perfect and veggies fresh and cool. Fries were hot, not too salty and the onion rings have already been mentioned. Normally I'd stop here. The young lady who brought our food came out later and asked us, "Is everything all right?" What burger joint does that? Five Guys. Islands sure. Not sure about Fuddrucker's... but a little Mom n Pop burger joint? This place is special. I'm going back. I want to go to a joint that knows what I order and says, "Hi Jack." Smiles and looks happy to have to have my business. I think it deserves 5☆'s. Sure it's older and a little divey and worn at the edges. IT'S CLEAN. The staff is not only friendly, they laugh. The customers laugh. They know their customer's names. They smile. They're very polite. They could give in n out lessons. They're fast but through. The food is delicious and you get everything you pay for. The prices are better than mainstream burger franchises. You can sit inside or outside. I felt good giving them my patronage. I want to give my return business. I want to take my kids there.
I love the food here. Breakfast is amazing. I just wish that the lady in front would have a better attitude. Every time I order it feels like she is rushing you and with attitude. Never says thank you.
I wasn't impressed with the burger. The burritos looked good and so did the teriyaki chicken. They also have breakfast specials that sound good. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Try them and see what you think. I will go back for the burritos. I did go back and had a chorizo and egg breakfast burrito, very tasty. The green salsa is delicious.
very basic. its cheaper than other places but definitely get what you pay for. its doable in a pinch.
Well… This morning was last straw for me. After waiting 20 mins for 2 breakfast burritos to go. I go and ask what happened to our order. After two mins of 5 guys behind the grill arguing they didn’t know. They find the ticket way off to the right and no one says anything to me like. Hey sorry. We missed your order but hey we’ll knock it out. These guys not realizing I speak and understand Spanish. Basically got back to pumping out the to go orders. I leave the fully paid for burritos go across the street to World of Empanadas and get good service and more importantly good customer service. Norm’s quality of service and customer service has been in a decline for bout 9 months now. Norms you’re dead to me. World of Empanadas Hello.
"THEY SPIT IN THE FOOD GUYS," I live like 50 yards away from this restaurant and wish this wasn't the case. After I asked about the quality of burgers and if it's real. The lady cashier up front said it's good and its real beef, but we don't spit in the food like the others do. I just looked at her like really did she just really tell me that. Hmmm. Yeah Ive even gotten sick from food poisoning at another location before.
