My first time coming to this spot. I was surprised that their menu items were named after gangsters & rappers. Like i said; my first time! But i loved it. Clean facilities, good atmosphere, great food! I had a Notorious Burger with fries, and it filled me up! Mos def recommend.

Delicious burgers and good selection of craft beers. Had the Bulger and Smashurger (2 patties). Very pleasant servers. Nice outdoor seating which is better than sitting inside which is a little drab. Great spot for a bite before a movie at Cinepolis.

Got a chance to eat here. The name lives up to the food. I ordered a Borky Big. The pork and bbq sauce was awesome and the huge pile of fries made this beyond a full meal. The wait staff was great.

The Cuban sandwich at Notorious is the best!! My daughter ordered a pulled pork sandwich which was also delicious. On a prior visit the hamburgers were excellent. No worries about under cooked meat as all burgers are cooked only one way.

Went to try this place out because it was highly rated and I must say I was definitely NOT disappointed. The customer service was completely on point! I want to give a big thanks to Christal (probably did not spell that right) for her excellent service. She was very attentive and very polite, which made my experience there that much better. I highly recommend visiting this establishment!

An incredible spot to chat and eat. The food there is great! Every bite fills you with butter and the juices of meat which in help the fries are not like any other fries. Delicious and marvelous work from the cooks. A restaurant I would like for everyone to try at least once. The price is perfect for its quality and uniqueness.

It’s been a while since I’ve been back to notorious burger, yet again it hit the spot! I ordered the blackened blue and it was so good! I love blue cheese on my burger. I got mine medium, I love a little color in my burger. The prices are average with many other places, but this place is worth it all! Next time I’m crazing a burger I know where I’ll be going!

Solid sports bar. (Especially, for watching University of Arizona games. GO CATS!) Lots of TVs, high top tables, booths, patio tables, etc. Food quality is above most other bar/grill establishments. Fun female-friendly cocktail menu. Will return often.

Great burger, chicken sandwich was all batter. Service was good but kitchen was very slow to prepare the food. Fries were excellent.

Nice little burger/bar joint. We had the crusted curds as an appetizer. They reminded me of mozzarella sticks. Very good, but overpriced. The wife had the Philly Mob, which was very good. I had the Youza Chicken, which was also very good. I enjoyed the cole slaw, but my wife found it a little spicy. The fries were just okay. They have indoor and outdoor seating, and offer a decent selection of beers. Service was great.

On my quest for the best burger in SD SO SORRY but the Notorious burger was near tasteless. I shared the blackened blue burger it had more flavor with arugula but still the meat was tasteless. The fries were oily and limp. Hopefully others will have a better experience. Ps. I’m a french fry lover!!

I was looking for a local place to grab a burger, beers, and watch the baseball game on TV. This place sidn't disappoint what I was looking for. Small and intimate indoors but large patio if coming with a big group. Bartender, Nas, was extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the beers on tap. Delicious burger (Blackened Blue) and they have Pliny the Elder on tap (chef's kiss).

Great burgers. I had the Lil papa, good and nicely cooked medium as requested. Also had the crazy fries, those are delicious. My friend order Capone burger, I preferred that one more as it had a lot more going on versus just bbq sauce on Lil papa burger.

The burgers were great. The customer service was very slow. They have a good selection of beers and the menu is very tasty. Our server never once came back to check on us or refill drinks. The place was empty when we arrived.

Had a Blackened Blue burger last night which was phenomenal. My side of choice was salad , which comes with a delicious White Balsamic so Tonight I tried a Greek salad which looked and tasted amazing until I discovered under that feta, the cucumbers appear to have the center ( best part) Eaten, not cut. There’s one cut slice . The rest were clearly biten . Why would the best part be removed at all? Just gross. Wasn’t sure how to rate because it was otherwise not bad but the White Balsamic on the house salad was tastier.

We used to absolutely love this restaurant and looked forward to bringing friends and family to enjoy a delicious burger and beer. Today we were excited to go for lunch on a beautiful Saturday afternoon. My husband and I were seated on the 2/3 full patio and were told the waitress would be by in a few minutes. Twenty minutes later, the waitress had not approached us; not even, "Hi, I'll be back to take your order," or anything like that. At this point, a young, white couple was just seated a couple of tables away from us. The waitress approached them within minutes of sitting down. We were appalled and left immediately. It's extremely disappointing. We have had so many amazing memories with family and friends at this restaurant. I'm sad to say we will never return to this establishment. Goodbye and good luck, Notorius!

Just had dinner here recently, & wow that service was just horrible. 2 young women service where you just felt unwelcome. Very rude and short. Made you feel like you were unwanted there. No customer service. More like a hurry up type. Place wasn't even busy. The whole family felt the bad vibe. Nothing wrong with the food itself. #bring back chicken& waffle Then again just our experience
