Sometimes places have signs that say "voted the best" hanging in the window and you never really find out what is so great about the place that would entitle it to be "the best."
The Kind Burger (TK Burger) is not one of those places. I love it! It is the best short order burger I've ever had!
There are two more locations: Costa Mesa & Huntington Beach
All three are great. I've had no bad food or service at any of them.
The TK experience begins with one or two cute girls working the register. If you're looking for the California girl the Beach Boys sang about then look no further. Next is the simple menu. Burgers and fries. You can get healthier turkey, chicken, ahi or veggie burger patties and have heard they are all pretty good but what I love is the traditional cheeseburger with everything on it, fries and a side of the special sauce.
The special sauce is a very thick version of the 1000 island dressing you might find on an In n Out burger. The comparison stops there though. TK's special sauce, meat, cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion and buns kill all competition. The buns are really awesome. I think between the sauce and the buns TK really has something unique.
The fries are thick and delicious. No soggy slinky in the bunch. They put a light coat of seasoning salt on them which is just right. Not too seasony or too salty.
Combine with a cold fountain coke, California beach girls, sand and sun and you've got yourself the perfect lunch my friend. Can't recommend it enough.
I wish there was one near Hollywood.
