This is my second time trying Sylvester's Burger and both times have been amazing! The girls working the front counter were super friendly, took our order correctly and brought it to our table. The food was great super fresh and tasty! We were also impressed at the speed at which tables and dishes were cleaned. We will definitely be back again soon!

This place was so good and intriguing we had to come back the next day! Starting off, you walk in and the place is fully decorated with pictures of people on the wall that have completed the 5 lb burger challenge ($69.95, free if you can finish in 30 mins) to people celebrating their birthdays. The workers were all very nice and attentive. The outdoor patio had multiple table/bench seating for parties of at least 6 each. The inside has plenty of room as well. My friend had gotten the philly and he said it was really good (although being his first time, it set the bar high for him) and my other friend and i got the desperado 1/4 lb along with sweet potatoe fries and regular fries, and MAN everything hit so well. The burger was filling and the fries were so crispy. The next day my homies came back because they were interested in the seasonal special shake "pumpkin spice shake" and the mushroom bites. My friend tried the grilled chicken sandwich, and you can tell it was freshly grilled. We had also gotten the strawberry shake and more sweet potato and regular fries. Idk if they home make their shakes but it sure tasted like it. You can see fresh blended fruit in the strawberry shake and you could taste it in the pumpkin spice shake. This place just hits the stomach in the best way possible. I also like how everyday of the week they have specials (see the pics) perfect for people trying to save money. This is a must spot stop traveling through the area. Hopefully we can stop by again soon

Good hometown comfort food. Definitely one of our favorite places to eat. Bacon burger, Hippie Burger, and their Cajun Chicken salad are a must. Honestly, any burger you get here will be AMAZING!!

Great service, friendly and fast. The mushroom burger was absolutely fantastic tasting a bit messy but fantastic nonetheless!! Can't wait to go back next time we're in town again!

I've been coming to Sylvester's for a few years now (both the locations in Los Osos and Atascadero, I haven't gone to the location in Oceano) and I can definitely say that they're a pretty good spot for burgers and salads! The store is located near city hall, and has plenty of seating around. The staff is pretty chill and laid back, and very helpful - both on the phone and in person :) . OKAY THE FOOD: I usually get either the desperado burger or the california burger, but for today's visit, I had gotten the 1/3 lb. California burger with regular french fries. It was pretty delicious, however I was in a big food coma after this meal. I love their strawberry shake here, but sometimes the pineapple shake is perfect for a super hot day. My boyfriend loves their tri tip salad and their sweet potato fries here, so I also recommend it! Side note: We've ordered the 1lb burger before, and we could not finish it despite splitting it between two people. Definitely a bang for your buck!

Not sure why Sylvester's average rating isn't great, we really enjoyed our burgers AND the fries We ordered inside and enjoyed our burgers on the front patio ---California burger: the buttery toasted Ben's crunch really added to the texture of the burger ---fries: perfect crisp on the outside and soft creamy inside NOTE: they have a different special everyday

Stopped in Atascadero to get gas and drove around what we thought was the downtown area only to pass by Sylvester's. The view of the park from the restaurant and the outdoor seating caught our eye, so we decided to check it out. Staff and Service: - Order your food at the register and they'll bring your food out to you - Both gals we encountered were so kind and friendly. They were helpful with sauces (asked us before we had to ask) and had really positive attitudes Food: - California Burger: comes with pepper jack cheese, veggie toppings, and Sylvester sauce. I ordered my burger in the smallest size (3 sizes available for all burgers) and it was a great size. The Sylvester sauce was tasty as well. The lettuce was fresh and crisp, the extra pickles I ordered were great, and I appreciated that the red onion wasn't in thick chunks like a lot of restaurants do - Old Fashioned Burger: ordered with the Sylvester sauce on the side and this burger was also tasty. - Fries: seasoned so well, were the perfect temperature, and had a great texture (I did see some of the other reviews after eating here and was shocked because I really liked the fries and didn't get any cold fries). Miscellaneous; - Great views of the park and city hall from here - Parking available via free street parking - Outdoor and indoor seating available - great for small or large groups - Soda fountain and milkshakes available (I wish I had the appetite for a milkshake also as they looked delicious!)

If you're looking for a filling & delicious burger, Sylvester's is the place to go! The staff were very friendly and gave great recommendations. Our food came out super quick. The garlic fries were super flavorful and the burger was HUGE. The ice cream machine wasn't working so we couldn't try their milkshakes, but we heard those were amazing as well. Overall, I highly recommend Sylvester's if you're looking for a casual & quick lunch spot with large portions!
