Marty's Hamburger Stand
Inside Marty's Hamburger Stand
Marty's Hamburger Stand sits unassumingly on W Pico Blvd, serving up a slice of classic Los Angeles fast food culture with an emphasis on straightforward, satisfying burgers and hot dogs. This is the kind of neighborhood spot where the grill is always hot, and you get to watch your meal being made right in front of you, adding to the no-frills, authentic vibe.
The main attraction here is the variety of burgers and hot dogs cooked fresh to order. If you're passing through for a quick bite, the combo items, particularly the Combo Burger topped with a fried split hot dog, offer an experience that’s hearty and uniquely local. The chili and cheese add-ons come highly recommended for those who appreciate a bit of spice and extra richness. Vegetarians aren’t left out either, as Marty’s offers a veggie burger option, which fits nicely within this modest menu.
What really stands out at Marty's are the sides, especially the curly fries and chili cheese fries, which have earned a loyal following for their crispiness and bold flavors. The tater tots and 50/50 fries (a mix of fries and onion rings) round out the sides menu, ideal for sharing or pairing with the main dish.
The atmosphere around Marty's Hamburger Stand is casual and approachable, with a friendly staff that often treats customers like old friends. It’s a place where locals come back regularly, evident from the familiarity in service and steady midday lunchtime crowd. This spot feels especially lively during lunch hours on weekdays when nearby office workers and neighborhood residents pop in for a quick, filling meal.
If you're someone who appreciates watching your food come together right on the grill, enjoys classic American fast food done well, and prefers a low-key setting without flashy decor, Marty’s offers that grounded LA burger joint experience. It’s not fine dining, but that’s part of the charm — meals here are about genuine flavors and uncomplicated satisfaction.
