Kale salad!

I came here with my yoga training group and let me start by saying I’m not a burger person or fast food person. Our mentor who loves Ⓥ burgers said this one beats Honeybee and Mr. Charlie’s. I had the one healthy thing on the menus - the kale salad - and it was great. The retro vibe is worth the price of admission.

Okay burgers, okay fries

Incredibly delicious chicken sandwiches!!! Would not get the cheeseburger again ever as it was not impressive but the chicken sando made up for it and I will always get that when I go there. The chicken was pretty realistic and for a second I panicked 😅 fries were just fries but the special sauce was amazing! My soda was also super syrupy and too sweet.

Pros: All plant-based, Cute merch, Cute interior

Cons: Pricey

The United States of Hamburgers

My first meal on US soil since 2019. Thanks for the soft landing. The Strawb Milkshake was the highlight, fresh whole fruit on top and more chunks blended inside an Oatly based soft ice cream sugar magic package. Might have been sprinkles too, Idk. Felt like a dream.

To be clear, this is junk food, but in the best way. I ordered the burger even though Impossible is a bullshit company only because I wasn't alert enough after an eleven day ordeal traveling from Asia to notice the fried chicken sando. Mercifully, it was a slight and unobtrusive patty, because too much of that stuff I find revolting.

The basket of fries and tots was enough to feed six kids or one fat ass like me. I chose the habanero sauce which was sufficiently spicy to keep me from being too remiss for having landed back once again the United States of Hamburgers.

Hopefully, these mofos take over the world and we can rename it The United States of Monty Burgers. Maybe just a fluke, but I asked the awesome cashier if she was vegan and the answer was yes for which she received a well earned cash reward. Good burger indeed.

Pros: Oat Milk Shake, Open late-ish, Employs vegans

Chicken Sandwich is the best

I don’t care much for burgers so I ordered Charlie’s Chicken Sandwich and it exceeded my expectations. You get a thick piece of plant-based fried chicken in a soft, sweet brioche bun that’s slathered with Veganaise. It comes with pickles. I ordered mine with lettuce and tomato for a little extra. It’s a messy good sandwich so grab plenty of napkins. The Strawberry Milkshake is made with Oatly’s, vanilla soft serve and strawberries. They served it with a straw and a spoon to scoop the strawberries that sink to the bottom. Monty’s is great before a Dodgers game (it’s near Dodger Stadium.) or really anytime you are craving a chicken sandwich, burger, fries and milkshake. My one complaint is that they don’t offer a more healthier options than the one Caesar salad on the menu.

Pros: Excellent chicken sandwich , Good service , Tasty strawberry shake madwith real strawberries

Cons: Costs more than your average fast food joint, Limited parking

Good burger indeed

I had a classic single burger, it was good. I got plenty of potatoes with my order. I appreciate that they do 50/50 fries and tots. I got a 1/2 strawberry shake, awesome portion. The shake was my favorite, could’ve gone with a regular size easily! Apparently their soda is house-made, I don’t drink soda, but it seemed appealing!

Pros: 100% Plant-based, Basic menu, easy to decide

Slow & Stale

Online ordered a meal and a shake just to wait around half an hour inside the place. It was seemingly very disorganized with handing out the wrong items, several people trying to do different things, and just lack of general order. When we got our food it was cold and tasted like it had been sitting for a while. The French fries were average and the shakes were good but really nothing special. I appreciate the idea behind it but they used the worst dairy free cheese, bad taste and consistency. Maybe we just came on a bad night but it was so expensive that I don’t think I would try it again.

Pros: Completely vegan

Cons: Expensive , Poor customer experience , Bad taste

Best vegan burger that I have ever found!

This was my first time coming here, but I have been following them on IG for ever. Their burger was amazing (bf let me take a bit). This is the best option. The chik’n sandwich was good, but not that convincing. They give a ton of fries, well seasoned, and crispy/soft at the same time. The food is always made to order. The ambiance was wonderful! I loved the neon lights, the music, and how friendly the staff is. You can get free pins and stickers to show support! Highly highly recommend!!

Pros: Vegan burgers and chik’n, Tons of fries!, Their haberno sauce!

Cons: The chik’n wasn’t as good as the burger.

Delicious!!!! But slowwww

Definitely gotta love all the options, all the salt, all the sugar 😋 I think the fries could be better- they’re a little soggy. Also we waited for a really long time- definitely feels like this should be more of a fast food situation. But of course will be back for more plant based deliciousness!!!!

Pros: So many vegan things!, All the sauces, All the shakes

Cons: Slow service, Obviously no healthy options

Burgers are good

Burgers are good! That’s the most important part, right? Definitely agree they’re pricey. We were more disappointed with our shakes - three of us got three different flavors and none of us liked them. Mine tasted just like straight up chocolate syrup. Fries were good, nothing special. Tots were yum! Overall just fine, yaknow? I think it’s worth a try, still.

Pros: Tasty burgers

Cons: Disliked shakes

Delicious Burgers

Really cute spot, and a delicious vegan burger to boot! It's a bit expensive, though - a friend and I went, and two burgers, a side order of tater tots, and two soft drinks were about $40. We were on vacation, so I didn't mind splurging, but if it was a typical day I probably would've seen the price and skipped it.

Pros: Good Food, Friendly Staff, Cute Spot

Cons: Expensive

Unreal good but also pricey

I've never had a vegan burger like this before. The sauce couples with the burger so well – I wish there were one where I live. I'll be thinking about it for a long time to come :)

The fries were also great (and a huge portion – 1 order for two is more than enough), and I loved the strawberry shortcake shake.

The people were super friendly and I love supporting vegan businesses.

All those positive things said, I wish it were more affordable. It's very expensive.

Pros: Amazing food , 100% vegan

Cons: Prohibitively expensive

Delicious

The burgers, fries, and tots are all amazing. Their ranch is supreme. I’ve tried the shakes a few times but I think something about the syrup they use is too saccharine for me, but my husband loves it, so I guess like most things in life, it’s a personal preference.

Pros: Burgers are delicious, Super fast service, Dipping sauces are amazing

Cons: Shakes too fake sweet

Eat the kale tots

The food is good but expensive. We tried basically everything besides the different shake flavors. The kale tots were the best thing. Their sauces are also good. Do yourself a favor and get the onion aoili. The burgers are good. The loaded frys/tots both kinds in my opinion were not good. I know what they were trying to do but it just didn't work for me. We got 3 shake flavors; banana split was very sweet but good whole banana and pineapple, mocha with a cookie...but they didn't put the cookie on the shake but charged is. That shake was very rich and the cookie dough which was very good. If you eat here order online and pick up otherwise you can be standing in line for an hour. Most pickups are ready in 15min.

Pros: Messy vegan burgers, Great housemate sauces, Kale tots seriously

Cons: Costs way too much for what you get, Loaded frys not worth it, Shakes look good but tastes are hit or miss

Good Quick Food

Went by for a burger and shake - delicious! They serve impossible patties, single or double. Yummy tots with vegan dipping sauces.
Good milkshake, but they use whatever recipe it is that has a distinctive aftertaste. Pretty creamy unlike other vegan shakes, but there’s something to the flavor that’s a little off.
Overall good food and really fast and friendly service! Also very covid safe.

Pros: Milkshake, Fast, Covid Conscious

Overrated and bad tasting

The worst location and overhyped vegan restaurant.
The food tastes awful and even the shakes taste bad.
They win on social media for great photos. But just overhyped bad tasting , bad location and bad food
Would give it one star but this app is stupid

Good but a little pricey.

I tried to curb my expectations because I heard a lot about this place before I went. It was good tho. I would eat there more if the prices came down a little.

Pros: Really good location., They have a dog for their logo.

Cons: Expensive

An Instant Fave!!

I’ve been wanting to try this place ever since I watched the food insider youtube video. I tried their food for the first time on Friday and WOW 🤩 I love monty’s good burger. I have been to this location twice in the past 4 days, once on Friday and the second time today.

On Friday, my mom and I ordered the single, fries, and their house sauce. As a former meat eater, I was so surprised how close to a meaty burger it tasted, I was almost scared 😱 It’s packed with flavor and all the elements just bring everything together to make a perfect lil package of joy 😍 Today, my boyfriend ordered the dogpile fries 🍟 It’s definitely something to gorge yourself with.

Monty’s is definitely worth a try and definitely worth the money. It’s a feel good meal, especially knowing that animal cruelty has been avoided. ❤️

Pros: Lots to choose from, Filling, but not greasy feeling, SUPER YUMMY

Cons: On a corner, Parking can be hard to find if you’re not lucky
