    I have been coming to George Burgers for as long as I can remember. This was my dads favorite burger spot and it soon became my own. The burgers are tasty and the fries are always fresh (home made feeling). The chili cheese fries are also one of my favorite!

    If you’re looking for a classic burger joint, than this is the spot. I can remember back in the early 80s When my dad used to take me to George Burger. There was an auto repair shop next door he would go to and bring me along for lunch. Back then, it was across the street from their current location and on a dirt road. There was no freeway exit at Las Posas and it was very different. But the burger I had for lunch today was just as good as I remember back then. I think it’s the seasoning on the patty, i love it. And the bun is delicious. Quick and easy from the drive-through for a great lunch. Friendly staff that made the food just right. Nostalgia at its finest when I eat at George Birger in San Marcos. Thanks guys!
