Pie'n Burger

Nostalgia feeling mom and pop burger joint. Feels like out of 1960’s. Burger was juicy and has that homemade feel. Bit pricy. Sides ok

I was very excited to try this restaurant after seeing it on YouTube (Food Insider and The Try Guys). Drove 40 minutes just to visit this place. Ordered a beef cheeseburger, chocolate milkshake, fries, and apple pie for dessert. The milkshake was solid. But the burger and pie was just ok. It was not bad by any means but it wasn't as good as I expected because Food Insider hyped this place up as the best cheeseburger in LA. When it came time for the checkout I was told that this is a cash only restaurant which annoyed me right off the bat but I didn't say anything because there are other places that have this policy as well. I ordered 4 slices of pie to go because I wanted to try out different flavors. Got the pies and came home. When I opened the bag, I realized I only got 3 slices of pie. Confused, I called the restaurant to see whats going on and I wondered if I accidentally only put in an order for 3 slices instead of 4. Turns out I did correctly order 4 slices but they made a mistake and only put in 3 slices but I was still charged for 4 slices of pie. I requested they give me a refund for the one slice of pie I didn't get. I was told that I would need to come back to the restaurant IN PERSON to get the refund in cash or if I come back as a customer I can get a free slice of pie. I explained that I lived quite far away and I also may be moving soon (which is true, I am tentatively waiting on a job offer from a different state) so my visit would probably be the first and last time at the restaurant. So I asked if they could send me the money electronically with Venmo or something and they still said no because they have a cash only policy. Needless to say, I was beyond annoyed. I just gave up and hung up the phone. The pie is only $6 per slice so it doesn't break my bank or anything. But its the whole principle that is so upsetting for me. I feel like I have been robbed of my money which is essentially what happened. You expect me to drive all the way over to you guys again which is almost a 1.5 hour drive round trip just to get a $6 refund? It'll cost more for the gas to drive there. Very disappointed.

First time coming to this place. Was told it was a must go so don't know how it eluded me. Been around a long time right next to the California Institute of Technology. Has booths to sit down in as well as tables. The menu changes during the day so make sure you get there early enough if you want breakfast, or consequently late enough for dinner. I went at lunch and got the tri tip sandwich 🥪. Was absolutely delicious, got the fruit bowl as well, which is also large and full of pineapples 🍍, strawberries 🍓, grapes 🍇, etc. And ended it having Pumpkin 🎃 Pie topped with their homemade whipped cream. Tasted like my grandma use to make back in the day. Staff was fun and engaging as well. Will be going back and recommend for anyone. Didn't get photos of the food this time, which is odd for me.

One of the best burgers around. The in-house thousand island sauce is so delicious on the burger. The chili cheese fries were just ok. They could have had more cheese and a bit more flavor. I think I'd get just regular fries next time. But the burger was soooo worth it!
