Main Street Burger - Los Gatos

Happy holidays everybody! What a great time of year... for eating! Let's jump right into this yummy burger place in Los Gatos (just over the hill from you, Spencer!).

Main Street Burger


Right at the start of downtown, this place is right next to Willow Street Pizza. Besides burgers, they have chicken, fish tacos, hot dogs, salads, onion rings and ice cream too. Even breakfast eats too. A real American cafe.


You order at the counter and they give you a buzzer, so no table service. That's okay with me! You can get a soda at the million-choice soda machine. You can watch the cooks make your food. You can sit at the high tables by the windows and watch the world go by.


I got the Nirvana Burger ($10) with cheddar, bacon-onion jam, lettuce, tomato and Sriracha mayo on an egg bun. As you can see, I couldn't wait to take a picture. But where's the pickle? They didn't ask us how we wanted our burgers cooked, but this one came out medium and was good. The bacon-onion jam is so delish. I could eat a whole bowl of that stuff. I would be sick, but it'd be worth it.


The Idaho Fries ($2.75) were super yummy - skinny like I like them. Crunchy outside, soft inside. Very tasty with the mayo side we got to dip them in. Burger and fries heaven!


She got the Side Burger ($5), which was supposed to be smaller, but it was close to the size I got. Maybe the bun wasn't as large? Either way, she got her burger fix sedated with this - a great $5 deal.

I'm calling this place's burgers as good as In-And-Out, but with more choices for toppings. They have Bacon & Bleu cheese, Mushrooms & Swiss and even the fabled "heart attack on a plate" - two grilled cheese sandwiches as buns for a double-cheeseburger. Eat at your own risk!!

Scores out of 10:
Food: 8
Service: n/a (but they did give us a dip for free)
Atmosphere: 7
Value for price: 7
Overall: A solid 7.25
