“ Seen Alex Cotrell post on tiktok and went the same day. Food is definitely a 10. Service was great from what I had seemingly I ordered online from Toast. I seem to have been the only one to figure out how to order online so I didn't have to go inside and wait. ”
“ Whoa, ok, For The Win, your cheeseburgers are delicious! It's crazy because I didn't even get a chance to eat this while it was hot and it was still wonderful. Got the double cheeseburger with pickles and it was the perfect amount for me. Delicious from the first bite to the last. Not greasy or heavy feeling at all. I ordered via self-service kiosk which was super easy. Service was fast and the people working there are very friendly. ”
“ Best smash burger. No one compares, and they offer gluten free buns! ”
“ I stopped by this burger place this morning to get lunch. I been to For The Win in Glendale before so l already knew what to expect. I arrived earlier than when this store open because I know the plaza this place is in, has limited parking spots. So when I came, the plaza was not busy at all so I got to pick a parking spot if my choosing. When they officially open, I walked inside and place my order. I got the cheeseburger single patty with no onion or pickles with fries and a chocolate shake. I also got double cheeseburger and added bacon to it. While the man working the grill was preparing my food, I just took a seat at one of the table inside and waited. I was their first customer of the day and the only customer when I was there. It took about 10 minutes for my burgers to be ready and I left to eat it at home. The chocolate shake was delicious and I usually don't order that. I ate the bacon double cheeseburger first and man was it heavy. I could barely finish it because it's a lot of grease and there was no lettuces or tomatoes in the burger. The fries where crispy, seasoned well and great. I was so full after eating the double cheeseburger with bacon that I couldn't even eat the regular cheeseburger so I gave it to my mom. She liked how the burger tasted. ”
“ I had the chance to check out For the Win for the first time. It’s located in a small shopping plaza off of Sherman Way where there’s a lot of food spots and more. It’s a small clean restaurant with indoor dining and 2 staff members that I could see. Both of which were very nice. I arrived around 3pm on a Monday and there was only one person there ordering but as I stayed more customers were coming in. I ordered the cheeseburger single patty burger, Brussels sprouts, and a Topo Chico drink. It took about 10 minutes to make as they make it fresh which is good. I took the order to go and couldn’t wait to dive in! Right away I noticed how big of a serving the Brussels sprouts were which was great. I took a bite of the burger which had tantalizing flavors that danced on my taste buds. I really liked the special sauce on it and wish I had more for dipping. The Brussels sprouts were good but I normally like to have my Brussels sprouts sweet with honey or tangy with balsamic. These were just a bit greasy but still good. Next time I will definitely try the fries though. ”
“ Found this place on Instagram and decided to check them out. I ordered a bacon double cheeseburger, fries, and a can of coke. Total was 19.40 and worth it! The bun had the SBA (soft bun action) and overall flavorful. The fries were crispy and the fry sauce...Amazing. Took it to a whole nother dimension. I will definitely make another visit... ”
“ Damn good burger and then some. The smashburger craving satisfied!!!! I order mine without onions but saw that if you order with onions they smash them into the patty. The meat was flavorful, good portion size with the crispy edges, cheese perfectly melted between the patties and the bread, bread super soft without being soggy. This burger is definitely for the win! They have a good sized parking lot and about 5 tables inside if you want to eat there. ”
“ One of the best burgers I’ve ever had, even if it’s a bit on the pricier side. I got both types of fries, and if I had to choose I actually liked the sweet potato fries a little better. Chocolate milkshake was solid. ”
