Delicious - Edit
This was my first impossible burger experience and I was quite impressed. The burger itself was amazing, and the fries were pretty [censored] good too (I ordered them with cheese). The staff was very friendly as well.

Was so excited to come here, worth it! - Edit
I was visiting LA for a convention, but I had to make some vegan food trips, and Monty’s Good Burger was on my list. It’s only been open for about a year, but since I’ve been vegan for about a year now from being vegetarian for years, this place felt iconic to me.
Read moreThey serve Cali-style burgers but vegan, basically similar to In-N-Out. They use Impossible burgers and Follow Your Heart cheese. They are topped with lettuce, tomato, house pickles, caramelized onions, and they house sauce on a potato bun. It’s everything you would expect in a fast food burger, but vegan.
The staff is very friendly and cares about their customers and the food comes out fast and you can see them prepare everything as well. Since the place is small, people line up by the entrance way. There is also seating outside which are the blue and red benches, but they have seating inside away or at the kitchen area.
They also have their own brand of organic sodas and they even have milkshakes.
I highly recommend this place if you’re looking for a classic burger joint but vegan!
Pros: Friendly staff, Everything is prepared fast and fresh
Cons: Small space

Kinda worth the hype - Edit
Super fast service even though it was Saturday and busy. The burger was pretty good, the cheese and house sauce made it awesome!! Next time I’d be more inclined to try their secret menu, I think the bun was too big for the burger masking the taste of the rest of it

Fantastic burger joint - Edit
This tiny burger place has just a few menu items but they are phenomenal. Service was really fast despite how busy it was. Everything was vegan. They had 5 different dips including multiple flavors of aioli. Loved the 1950s diner vibe too.
Read morePros: All vegan!, Fantastic food, Fast service
Cons: Kind of pricy, Small space, so it might be hard to find seating

Impossible isn’t vegan - Edit
I had no idea they were selling the impossible. The impossible tests on animals. Everything is overpriced. Wasn’t a fan of the burger but the milkshakes are delicious

Warning. Use of Animal Tested Ingredient. Not vegan. - Edit
UPDATE! Monte’s exclusively serves Impossible Foods burgers. While these are plant based, they are NOT vegan. The company tested their product on animals to bring it to market faster. Monty’s has their heart in the right place, but they need to drop Impossible Foods like a bad habit and switch to a company that cares about animals.
Read moreShakes and fries are vegan as far as I know.
Cons: Expensive, Parking can be a challenge, Burger’s special ingredient tested on animals

You grew old and tired of it - Edit
My guess is it’s so fatty that makes it easily seen as “delicious” (???). The burger was tasty and juicy, but after a few bites, you grew old and tired of it. I ended up took big chunks of the patty out. But I’m a weird eater so don’t trust this review.
Read morePros: tasty & juicy, 100% vegan, ethical?
Cons: long waiting line, too oily/fatty, only good for takeout

Best vegan burger - Edit
Got the single with tots and strawberry shake. The burger was the best vegan burger I've ever had. Even my non-vegan partner agreed. Got the tots with onion aioli sauce. The sauce was better than I expected. The strawberry shake blew it out of the park. It was absolutely delicious and had chunks of fresh strawberry in it. My daughter had the chocolate shake but it wasn't as good as the strawberry. Only downside was it's very expensive!

Vegan Fast Food - Edit
I ordered a single burger, tater tots with house dipping sauce, and a chocolate vegan milk shake at this cute little 12 seater fast food joint. Delicious. I did not think the 2.0 was noticeably different than the first Impossible Burger.

Very good - Edit
This is the best rendition of the impossible burger Ive tried. The location is pretty cute and tiny. The special sauce is a bit too sweet for me and the bun was a tad too thick. The loaded fries were alright. Its just fries 1000 sauce fyh cheese onions. Next time I’d just get tots or fries. Its not cheap, but i get it, the ingredients are more expensive. I’d come back the next time im in LA. Worth a trip!

Be Patient - Edit
The burger was just soo thick from bread and cheese it was hard to taste anything else. I'm not a fan of the impossible burger and I just had a few bites of my friend's, but I had a loaded grilled cheese and loaded tots which were super good. I'd return just for those. The wait to order was around 25 mins which really sucked, but after that, our ticket time was about 5 mins which was nice. Unfortunately, it's super tiny inside and it's just one massive [censored] funnel. You can hardly move in there. You also leave smelling like cooking oil which I hate.
Read morePros: All Plant Based
Cons: Expensive. Long order line time. Parking.

Love the burger - Edit
The food was delicious, but it was so busy that we stood in line for 20 minutes before we could order. There weren't any available seats so we got ours to go.
