The food was really good & fresh. We ordered Hamburgers, Fries & Chicken Strips & it's all made as you order. There is no inside seating, only 3 tables outside. Most orders we saw were "to go". Bummer they are only opened Monday-Friday. We are definitely coming back 😋

The quintessential Mom and Pop Burger joint. I had the Jalapeño burger meal and enjoyed it immensely. The fries had a good flavor to them as well. A very good value and a delicious meal. Staff was friendly and I look forward to my next meal at Scott’s.

I just went today with my boyfriend and we loved it! We ordered the triple fatboy combo, a pastrami rueben, a double bacon cheeseburger, and a side of chili cheese fries. It’s cash-only with outside dining. The lady that took our order was really nice and so was the man who handed our order to us. The sandwiches were great!! Like sooo good 10/10!! The buns used on the burgers are really good quality and hold up well and have a lovely bite to them. The burgers themselves were large and delicious!! The pastrami rueben was also super flavorful. The chili cheese fries were decent but not my favorite (I prefer Willie’s) and our fries from the combo could have been a little hotter, but overall we throughly enjoyed this place. We also ordered an iced tea and it came in one of those huge styrofoam cups. So everything is well worth the price.

Scott's Burger Shack, a staple on Franklin Blvd for many years, serves up respectable burgers and great service. This place is CASH ONLY. If you've lived in South Sac, this is one of those places that you grew up with. The look and feel is the same, it hasn't changed after all these years and that's what keeps me coming back. Only thing different, is the COVID protocols in place - you can't eat at the tables for example. These tough times haven't deterred people from searching for a good burger and that's exactly what you'll find at Scott's.

Scott's been doing right here since '82. Go Scott. It's not fast food! They cook your burger when you order it. Deluxe cheese burger very good. Maybe too much bun, next time the double. That would make it just about perfect. Four tables on the shady side to wait. Everyone I saw got it to go. It takes a little time but there's a reason hes been here since '82.
