Bill's Burgers

Los Angeles
American Restaurant
$$$$

Bill Elwell has been cooking up burgers for 50 years in this unassuming shack, and they're <em>almost</em> good enough to make you forget all about that In-N-Out place. Treat yourself with one of Bill's bacon, pastrami, and four cheese hamburgers, and you'll never look back.

It seems that no one really knows the proper name of this blink-and-you’ll miss it, postcard-sized, Oxnard Street stand, but it doesn’t matter: what you do know is that if they’re open, Bill will be there (like he has been for the past 50-something years) and, maybe more importantly, Bill’s grill will still be there too. The perfectly seasoned flat-top adds an extra something-something to griddled double cheeseburgers that simultaneously taste like childhood and the best thing you’ve had since then. Bill, who is 94 years old, has threatened to retire soon—there were rumors during the pandemic that a sale was imminent—so now maybe is the time to go before he actually hangs his spatula up.
How to order: Walk up and order or call 818-785-4086 for pickup.
