Goldburger

Tucked away on York Boulevard in Highland Park, Goldburger has become one of LA’s most talked-about burger spots. What started as a humble Silver Lake pop-up in 2019 has grown into a full-fledged phenomenon, with the Highland Park location opening during the pandemic and a second outpost in Los Feliz following in late 2021. The vibe here is casual and unpretentious—exactly what you’d expect from a neighborhood burger joint that’s laser-focused on doing one thing exceptionally well.

The burgers at Goldburger stand out in LA’s crowded smash burger scene for their sheer substance. These aren’t the paper-thin patties you’ll find elsewhere—they’ve got real heft to them. The namesake Goldburger comes stacked with melty American cheese, caramelized grilled onions, tangy pickles, and a secret weapon: their house-made garlic-mustard aioli that ties everything together. For something more indulgent, the LA Special piles on thick-cut pastrami that would make any deli proud.

This is the kind of place where you walk in hungry and leave completely satisfied—possibly until the next morning. It’s perfect for a solo lunch mission or grabbing a quick bite without breaking the bank. The curly fries are an essential addition to your order, arriving hot and impossibly crispy.

Whether you’re a burger purist or someone who appreciates creative takes on the classic American staple, Goldburger delivers exactly what it promises: honest, delicious burgers that punch well above their price point. Just be prepared for a line during peak hours—word has definitely gotten out about this place.
