Vaka Burger - Tustin

In a nutshell: small and overpriced. For $11 dollars not including tax and tip this burger shop merits a critique. Ordered the Big Cheese Burger. It was not big. It was somewhere in between a Happy Meal Cheeseburger and the McDonalds Value meal menu cheeseburger in size.At the $11 dollar price mark, the burger has to be good right? It has to be better than your home BBq'd burger, the Habit, In-N-Out, The Cut, Mooyah, right? This is the only way justify the price and taste per gram in the burger landscape wars of OC. In-N-Out/ the Habit are clear winners. Compared to another $11 dollar range burger, The Cut and Mooyah are clear winners. As one new customer that will not return... in a burger market where you only survive if you can develop a loyal base... this burger shop needs to make some changes. Until then, I'm going elsewhere for a burger.

DO NOT GO AND SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS!!!! THEY DONT PAY OR RESPECT THEIR WORKERS

Wonderful service the food texture is great I really encourage you guys to come and visit this location

Vaka Burger was featured on the morning news a couple of months ago. Ever since then, I've been wanting to try it out. It is located in the corner inside the Mess Hall. I got the OG Burger with Fries. The OG burger comes with julienne romaine, Russian dressing, a beef stock tomato, yellow sharp cheddar cheese, red onions, and ketchup. However, I asked for no Russian dressing nor ketchup. I also didn't eat the top bun. My burger was still juicy and flavorful. The fries were good and crispy, too. My two-year old almost ate the entire portion by herself. They were twice fried 1/4 shoestring fries. We can't wait to come back to try their Brie, Truff and Vaka burgers.

Located in Mesa Hall another great place to while waiting for your car to be charged at the Tesla Supercharging Station. Decided to try their Vaca burger and their fries (an added on for $1.99). They provided garlic aioli and ketchup for the fries. Garlic aioli was good garlicky while the ketchup is on the sweeter side. I believe it was homemade. We were recommended the Vaca burger. The burger was good the onion ring in burger was slightly soggy (not as crunchy as I had hoped) and it felt like it was missing some sauce. Overall it's a good place to sit and munch on something while waiting. It was quiet at the time we went but I can see it being a great place to hangout with friends esp on weekends
