Though there are many spots in town to chow down on a perfectly serviceable burger, these establishments and their burgers make burger night the best night of the week. Berlin-style döner kebabs are all the rage at the aptly-named Berlins on West Third Street. The strip mall favorite turns out endless versions of the classic German street food snack during the busy lunch rush, attracting interested locals and in-the-know Germans alike.

Peña is planning several vegetarian and vegan dishes. Matt’s wife, Tracy Tobin, is vegan, and even at the family’s Goodfriend Burger, she finds items she can eat because Peña has been intentional about meat-free options. New Haven, named for the city in Connecticut, is similar to Neapolitan pizza because it has thin crust and is cooked at high heat, around 650 degrees. The crust comes out “leopard,” says executive chef David Peña, meaning it looks like leopard print because of the charred spots. Because of that investment, the owners behind East Dallas’ Goodfriend Package and Goodfriend Beer Garden and Burger House have signed a lease to open a restaurant on Main Street, on a corner overlooking the new park. Fortunate Son will be a pizza joint with house-made pasta.

The toppings for a New Haven pizza aren’t limited, the restaurant owners say. Pepperoni, tomato sauce and pecorino cheese might be one; a white clam pizza might be another, inspired by famous New Haven pizza joint Frank Pepe Pizzeria Napoletana. The team plans to fly to the Northeast soon to visit Frank Pepe and two other New Haven stalwarts, Sally’s Apizza and Modern Apizza. Within the $423.7 million bond package passed in 2019, the square’s $24 million project includes a new city park, event lawn, pavilion, water fountain and improvements to the streets and sidewalks in the 14-block neighborhood. This Austin export has quickly become a staple of East Dallas. It fuses Asian cooking and barbecued meats — think oak grilled snap peas in a kimchi infusion and crispy potatoes with miso mustard.

Better still, they're available to be made into sandwiches, with options to throw in a bite of German pastry at the end as well. 27 great breweries and bottle shops doing craft beer pick-up and delivery in Los Angeles County. Boomtown Brewery is back, with their extensive patio seating in the Arts District, along with wood-fired tacos from Corazon LA. A Long Beach spot from the same German parent company as Wirsthaus, this garden has a lot of the same spirit and offerings as the La Brea location. Enjoy sausages made with elk or duck, and make sure to finish off with the famous apple strudel. Peña’s kitchen will also have traditional Italian dishes such as chicken Parmesan, meatball rigatoni, and clams with spaghetti.
Restaurants
Here's a list of inviting places in the Los Angeles area, broken down by region, where you can drink outside with the kiddos, ranging from super traditional German beer gardens to family-friendly brewpubs with outdoor spaces. Another staple of the Southern California beer scene is Hangar 24, and its Orange County location is very kid-friendly. The biggest draw for kids is the massive outdoor space where they can run, explore, and play. It's open for outdoor dining with ample outdoor seating though the menu is more geared towards adult tastes. However, it does offer fries and onion rings that kids can snack on while you sample the great beer selection, so the kids will be perfectly happy. The pandemic has made this already pretty family-friendly taproom and beer garden even better for kids.
Boyle Heights’ Indie Brewing is back open, with a big patio in their industrial parking lot. In addition to having some excellent flagships - the IPA Del Rey, Pacific Kölsch Highway, and Beverly Pils are all standouts - they also host the tremendous LA Taco Company on Sundays. Fall has arrived in Dallas and there’s no better way to enjoy the lower temps than kicking back with brews, bites, and good company!

Located in the hippest neighborhoods in the City (that is the Arts District and Venice, of course), Wurstkuche is far for your average German beer garden. That’s largely thanks to a menu of exotic sausages to run from the classics to a rattlesnake and rabbit variety. Homage Brewing might just be the best Southern California brewery you’ve never heard of - it’s a tiny spot in Pomona serving excellent, innovative saisons, barrel-aged sours, and IPAs. They have a few tables, and somewhat random hours, so be sure to check their Instagram before you go. Work your way through the beer taps, to an impressive elevated Texas fare and southern style pub grubs. The Jaxon cheeseburger and Boz Steak Frites are drool-worthy.

Goodfriend Beer Garden & Burger House: A Really Cursory First Look.

This Oxnard brewery has a family- and dog-friendly patio, and they make some of the best sours and hazy IPAs in Southern California, making your quick drive up the coast well worth it. Brouwerij West has a massive parking lot patio set-up, where you can drink Belgian-style ales and lagers near the port in San Pedro - we like 8 ½, their hazy double IPA, the best. This Old Town Pasadena favorite has expanded to a ton of franchises across the country.

This Dallas-based chain proves that multiple locations don’t have to mean burger mediocrity. Burger House has been serving up patties to meat enthusiasts across Dallas-Fort Worth for more than 60 years, which probably has something to do with the special seasoning used on those patties. Glendale institution Schreiner's Fine Sausages is known for its wide selection of German-style deli meats (black forest ham, anyone?), condiments, and assorted German foodstuffs. Thankfully the place also turns out a pretty tasty casual lunch, with room for grilled brats, knackwurst sandwiches, and more.
Topped with house brisket, white cheddar, chili, and grilled onion, it’s lip-smackingly delicious. If you're craving some classic pub-grub then their cactus fries, smoked cheddar grits (how long do grits last?), and spicy Nashville-style fried chicken are a few other dishes you can try out from their food menu. And their new pimento cheese-slathered burger is a winner, if you’re looking for a full meal. The Ozersky, pictured here, is a classic but it also offers the Pimento (with a healthy serving of pimento cheese), the Magic which is served on an English muffin, and the Beef Cheek. Chef John Tesar cares about little as much as he cares about the quality of his meat, so expect the best. Right in the middle of Oktoberfest’s namesake month, there’s no better time to take in a gut-busting meal of German classics.
The original location has a lovely namesake Biergarten that is open again, filled with games for kids (which is much better than the sports bar-style interior). And of course, it has very fun, silly versions of hot dogs, sliders, and more, all served on King's Hawaiian rolls—which are so delicious you'll wonder why you ever used anything else. This newly opened family-owned restaurant takes inspiration from its owner’s time living in Tuscany and her family recipes from Sicily to craft a menu dedicated to the old-world Italian way of serving food. Diners will note that pasta is made fresh daily, and while they’re waiting, they might see mozzarella being freshly pulled for service. Also, the wine list is entirely natural, biodynamic, and organic bottles from small vineyards. Their splendid patio, equipped with firepits, grassy hills, picnic tables, huge garage-style doors, and a stage for concerts and live music, is airy, spacious, and perfect to escape from the bumble of the city.
For experimental fare, Rye is the place to be on Greenville Avenue. It’s famous for its duroc pork belly lollipops and take on the Icelandic hot dog, as well as its deep whiskey list and whiskey-driven cocktail menu. The restaurant has added a chef’s tasting menu, lunch, and brunch. The great thing about going for sliders instead of a full-sized burger is that you can try a few wildly different burgers all at once. Maple & Motor has long offered one of Dallas’ favorite burgers, landing on nearly every burger enthusiast’s best-of list and even earning recognition from flame-shirted Food Network personality Guy Fieri.
Notably, Fortunate Son will also serve the Bourdain Burger, a favorite menu item at Goodfriend. The Bourdain is a double-double smashburger with Kewpie mayo, pickle, lettuce and tomato. The restaurant’s biggest draw will be New Haven-style pizzas.
