I usually love this place. Not sure what happened today. Ordered online for pickup. Decided to sit at the bar and order a drink while I wait for my pickup order. Place had very few customers. They must have forgotten about the drink and online order completely. Took so long that I canceled the drink and asked for my online order which apparently had already been ready for a while. Other than that staff is nice. I usually love this place.
I recently visited The Counter Park Place restaurant and I have to say, I was blown away by the quality of the food. Although I had been to this location before about 6 or 7 years ago, I was excited to give it another try. And I'm so glad I did!
Although the burgers are a bit on the pricier side, the quality of the meat is exceptional. As someone who always loves to create their own meal, I was thrilled to see that The Counter offered a create your own burger menu. I decided to go for the Organic Bison as my protein and opted for a 1/2 lb size. I chose a Brioche bun and topped it with American cheese, and selected extra cheese for good measure. For sauce and dressing, I went with a combination of Thousand Islands and Mayo, which was absolutely delicious.
For toppings, I went with Caramelized Onions, Dill Pickles, and Roasted Grape Tomatoes, and also added Guacamole as a premium topping. The combination of flavors was incredible and everything tasted so fresh.
To accompany my burger, I ordered the Sweet Potato Fries, which were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. They were the perfect side to go along with my delicious burger.
Overall, I highly recommend The Counter Park Place restaurant for anyone who loves a good burger. The quality of the ingredients and the attention to detail in the menu options make this restaurant stand out from the rest. I will definitely be visiting this restaurant again in the near future!

Wow, there were so many free options to customize my burger!.. With different burger types, like bison, and some cheeses at additional charge. There was so many other burgers, sandwiches, sides, and shakes to choose from. Overwhelmed by the selections available, I decided my first try should just be a margarita and cheeseburger on the regular menu. My burger was perfect medium rare, juicy, and trimmings so fresh. French fries were deliciously crisp and hot. My margarita was Perfect, Perfect, Perfect! The drink price was almost half compared to other OC restaurants, and it wasn't even happy hour yet... I would have gladly paid more for my perfect drink! The hostess seated me right away, drink came in 10 minutes and lunch at 20 minutes, and manager checked in to see if I was enjoying my meal. Friendly and attentive staff was very good. Definitely coming back to this gem.
Good service. I ended up coming here because the Postino wait was too long. I was surprised by how good the burger ended up being. Pleasant surprise after the terrible burger I had at Hangar 24 a few weeks ago. Relish and Bourbon BBQ sauce were not my cup of tea at all. Gross.
Had a great experience here. Aside from meats and cheeses, all other toppings are available free of charge. There are many exciting options ranging from croutons to eggs. The 1 lb burger turned out to just be two half pound patties, which is not as exciting but definitely better for the flavor.
The downside to this was parking, the night we went and time the parking lot was a disaster. We ended up parking in the structure which was packed as well due to the attached gym.
The burgers here are solid as well as their chicken sandwich. The fries are skinny but they do have an option for tator tots. Service was spot on and order came out quick. They have a full bar and specialty drinks as well.
First impression; they sat us at a booth, cushion was torn (see picture). Menu is a bit overwhelming, strawberry lemonade is delicious. Waiter was quick to refill drinks. For a burger joint, food took longer than expected, now I am full from my second lemonade. Burger was good.
Delicious burgers and amazing service. We come here whenever we crave burgers.
Tasty! A little slow service but burger was solid. I prefer my burger a little greasier and a little more “worked in” with the ingredients fused together but nevertheless, this is a solid burger. Good ingredients, condiments, sauces, infinite choices really.
That bacon onion jam thing was 🔥
The best burger ever. Really high quality one.
I recently had a great lunch at The Counter. The chicken wings was delicious, juicy and flavorful. The service provided was attentive and friendly, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The overall dining experience was fantastic, and I highly recommend The Counter for a satisfying meal.
Visiting from Dallas. The food was delicious. I would definitely eat there again next time I visit Orange County.
We received excellent service here. The ability to customize your burger is awesome. And with additional patty options, the higher price makes it a viable option. I tried the impossible burger and despite the extra cost, it was delicious!
