Great Burger

by StephanieVE

After having a bad experience at another local restaurant, I wandered into Tyler's looking for a quick bite to eat. They had a full menu of simple yet different items. Of course they had the classic hamburgers and cheese burgers, but they also had a nice variety of different kinds of burgers and fries. I asked for mine with just lettuce and tomato but, they got it wrong and put the sauce on there as well. I didn't mind too much, it's just not that hard to put only lettuce and tomato on a hamburger. That said, the burger was good. Really juicy and messy. The napkins they give you definitely aren't enough. Extremely casual, it's a nice place go sit and people watch on Saturday mornings.

• Pros: Good food
• Cons: Loud inside.

Three Words: Ahi-Tuna-Burger

by citigrl78

Other than the fact that this place is ALWAYS packed and slightly slow to deliver because of the traffic, I can?t say a bad word about Taylors. I was a huge fan of their original stand in St. Helena, and now I?m a huge fan of their stand at the Ferry Building. There?s no question in my mind that the ahi tuna burger is by far one of the best sandwhiches I?ve ever eaten? I used to have to drive 2 hours to St. Helena to get it, but now I save on gas $. If you don?t have an important meeting to go to, you?ve gotta get the garlic fries?an SF favorite. Shakes are great, and for lighter fare try the grilled cheese, chopped wedge salad (I like the blue cheese dressing) or share the fish tacos. You really can?t go wrong at Taylors!

• Pros: FOOD IS GOOD! FOOD IS GOOD!
• Cons: Can be a long line/take a while to get food

Dirty Handeling supplies standard burgers

by cvanhorn

By simply hanging around on a busy afternoon, I realized that the same person who cleaned the tables with a rag used his bare hands, shortly after without washing them, to move hamburger buns around the grill which toasts them. That said, it is clear management lack procedures in place to control tasks which should be seperated. I am unsure how often this disgusting event happens, but be sure to wash your bun before eating. One would come to expect high standards from such a place that charges premium prices. Eat with caution.

• Pros: Sometimes tasty
• Cons: DIRTY, rediculous prices, poor/slow service

Yummy!

by shoegal84

I work nearby so I have eaten here more than a few times. I love it. The burgers are tasty fresh and crisp, and the chili cheese fries are yummy!

I love that it is in (attached to) the Ferry Building too. It's nice to grab a burger and fries and sit outside and watch all the people walk by.

• Pros: Tasty burgers.
• Cons: Pricey burgers!

Dang good burgers, fun patio, great location

by gjagiello

I wanted to hate this place...the name and theme don't appeal to me, and I figure we already have enough burger and beer joints in the city. BUT they won me over with their burgers and that patio. The BBQ Wester Blue Ring burger is really top notch -- it's a burger w/ big chunks of bleu cheese, bacon, bbq sauce, and a crispy onion ring on top (like a $7 version of the Carl's Jr. Western Bacon). To get more time out of your al fresco experience, I like to buy a bottle of the cheapest wine on the list ($15 or so) and camp in the sun for an hour and people watch. You order and pickup from a counter, so service is pretty invisible. I've been 5 times, and they haven't made any ordering mistakes yet. So I have to recommend them! Go with some friends on a nice day and enjoy.

• Pros: The patio seating and the burgers
• Cons: Crazy long lines during peak hours

Great Food with a Great Atmosphere

by stainlessmirk

This is one of my favorite places for burgers/fries/sandwiches. They have more of a selection than most on fries, among them yam/sweet potato fries. I have yet to be disappointed with this place!

• Pros: food, atmosphere

Overpriced and not even worth the $$$

by schroeg

A $12.99 fish and chips that is not even served at the table should be substantial and well-worth it. Not this insulting mess that was 90% bread. I guess we are paying for the cutesy little squeaking coasters and the idiotic name. Yikes!

good

by food911

This place is great on value. Burgers and fries are good with lots of variety. I sometimes tend not to eat hamburger buns because they lack flavor or get too soggy, but these here don't and actually taste really good. The sweet potato fries were good. If you opt for a bottle of wine- nothing fancy- their prices are very reasonable and if bringing your own... I think corkage is just a buck.

• Pros: buns, inexpensive, outdoor seating

My Sunday Spot

by sunny312

We go here just about every Sunday and have yet to be disappointed. Nothing beats a cheeseburger, Fries and Mint-Chip milkshake on a Sunday afternoon. I admit it's not the cheapest or fastest but it's ALL worth it!

• Pros: Burgers, Fries, Shakes
• Cons: Wait time
