"What could I possibly say that hasn't already been said about this iconic place? Picked up my kid from Burbank Airport and I asked him if he was hungry. He says, "I could eat." I say to him, "Say no more. I know a place." Decided to stop for an early dinner (around 5pm) to avoid that tangled mess affectionately known as the Hollywood Split. Food was amazing, staff is friendly, attentive, and don't smother you by constantly checking in on you. Food service is quick and the portions are generous to say the least. I went with the "Original" Big Boy and it did not disappoint. It came with a salad and the burger was served with fries on the plate. My son, whom had never been there, said that his scrambled eggs and hash browns were perfect. Yes, they have breakfast all day and my son is as vanilla as vanilla can be when it comes to food. In short, if you want to get some good food after a long flight or just want to experience the cool vibe Bob's exudes, then do yourself a favor and pop on in, grab a spot at the counter or wait for a booth. You won't be disappointed."

"Old school diner chain filled with nostalgia. I had never been before, however my dining partner remembers the chain when they were located all over California. It was a great blast from the past, and definitely worth the experience by itself, as demonstrated by the long wait (45 mins) and a wedding party at 7pm. We both ordered the burgers, with a soda and cup of chili. The food was average, somewhat mediocre. Neither here nor there, not bad nor good. I think I'd go back and try something else, and maybe have a more positive opinion of it. Server was very sweet and provided good customer service, although she forgot a few things (including bringing our bill). However, I chalked that up to the fact that the restaurant was completely full with a waitlist. Long story short, burgers are okay but may recommend trying something else. Review is mostly for the nostalgia. And don't go during peak times."

"Our favorite place in LA! ❤️ Bob’s Big Boy always feels warm and welcoming. Amazing food and outstanding service every time. Huge thanks to the incredible team — especially manager Robert and servers Gaby and Ravyn. They are friendly, attentive, and truly make this place special. We keep coming back and highly recommend it! ❤️"

"TL;DR: Classic diner with real charm, fast service, and better food than the big chains. After several visits, I’m sold. The room is welcoming, tables turn quickly even on weekend nights, and service stays friendly. Breakfast plates and waffles are always great, and the Super Big Boy combo is signature for them. Cherry Coke with syrup is a fun add. They really are just a reliably good diner that beats a lot of diners on flavor, pace, and vibe. Deserves high ratings. Pro Tips: • Peak hours get busy, but lines move. • Order waffles or chicken and waffles. • Get the Super Big Boy combo. • Late night is relaxed and quick."

"I have enjoyed Bob's Big Boy for decades. Occasionally, you might see a celebrity there. Bob Hope himself used to eat there often. It's a good experience, especially if you have friends in from out of town. And number of movies have been shot there, which is kind of fun, but the building itself is the star. The food is typical 1950s diner style and they always get it right. I enjoyed the super big boy combo and the chili size with spaghetti, but there are lots of other options. Their soups are good, too. A lot of the employees have worked there for a very long time and so they know their business. I appreciate the comfort food and especially the atmosphere. Bob's is always worth a visit. Its iconic!"
