    We are creatures of habit when it comes to ordering from Hercules. My hubby really likes the pastrami sandwich and I just love their patty melt with grilled onions. We will usually alternate which one we order and split the sandwich. Plus we also REALLY like their zucchini fries with the ranch dressing - but every now and then we also like to get the onion rings. Both are really good and we'll served. A couple of notes: * They are usually good at putting the ranch dressing in the bag, but do not leave until you have opened up the bag to make sure you have it. That is a 'must have' if you order the zucchini fries! * And we don't like to order the pastrami sandwich too late in the evening (after about 7pm) because we have done that a couple of times before and felt like we just got a sandwich of the tiny pastrami bits and scraps.

    First they tried to charge tried to charge me $35 for two orders of chilli cheese fries with pastrami. When I questioned them about the price the lowered it to $23. When I get home I noticed there wasnt much pastrami on top. They put extra extra salt in my food, I didn’t notice till about halfway when my fingers started to tingle and I was very thirsty. The second order was the exact same. This place is empty for a reason people stay away!!!

    First time here and last. Ordered an egg burrito and a 16 ounce coffee. Total was $8.19 asked to add guacamole total went up to $11.42. Gave the guy my card charged me $12.01. I hadn’t noticed until after he gave me my card and he walked away. He came back to the window when the food was ready, and when I asked him he gave me the breakdown three dollar charge for avocado, and when I asked them why the price difference between the 1142 and the $12.01 he said they charge a fee. I feel cheated and feel like the service fee for using my card debit card by the way should have been disclosed beforehand. The coffee looks like it’s a 12 ounce coffee not a 16 ounce coffee like they advertise on their menu. Coffee was given to me with no cream or sugar. He didn’t even ask Burrito bland never coming to this place again.

    The sauce on the chicken sandwich keeps getting sweeter but I love the chicken it's delicious. The fries are hearty. The rest of the food is overpriced.

    A standard hamburger, fried zucchini and a pineapple Shake cost me $19! It was a lot of zucchini but not worth $19!

    We spotted this place today 6/23/2023 about 6pmish, it wasn't here when I was growing up. But it's absolutely delicious!!! Amazing food!!!! I'm at a loss for words it's so good. I could only eat 1/8th of my food. It was such an awesome portion!!! We ordered the Hercules Fries, Regular style fries, and onion rings. The taste is just absolutely amazing!! Customer service in drive threw was patient and courteous, I didn't get his name. The Hercules fries look similar to a fry I got somewhere else, but is so much different. The taste is different and in a good way!!! I look forward to coming back to try other food on the menu. Check this place out!!!

    Friendly staff, they have Family packs with either regular or Jr burgers. We get the Jr pack as the Jr burgers are a decent size. 5 burgers, 5 fries and 5 small drinks for under $20. Always fresh. Breakfast is good. Prices are reasonable for a place like this. Drive thru landscape is really nice and ok for full size pick up tricks. They have picked carrots, pepper bar when dining in or picking up. Haven't tried many items but overall a decent place to eat.

    Stopped here on our way home from Newport. We went thru the drive thru, super friendly service, they were very busy inside so it did take awhile for us to get our order but we'll worth it. Burgers are great! Yummy onion rings. Can't wait to stop by again to try something else. Looks like they have great breakfast.

  • 1/5 Robert W. 1 year ago on Google
    They dont honor their online special adds. They changed my order without me asking and acted like it was my bad. The burger they did get correct was great but the interaction with the employee who changed the order has soured me from ever going back.

    Oancakes were good. Ordered the steak breakfast . Ordered medium and came extremely well done. Like a peice of leather.

  • 5/5 S H. 8 months ago on Google
    I previously gave a negative rating to Hercules because they left the lettuce core in my salad. Hopefully they don't do that anymore. The other day I called in an order of eggs, french toast and sausage and it was delicious. The order was ready when we got there. Everything was perfect. A really nice breakfast. Thanks.👍🏼👍🏼

    Been coming to this location since the late 70's, can't go wrong with anything on the menu , food is always fresh, tasty , staff is always friendly and accomodating. Burgers , Sandwiches & Breakfast plates are all plentiful & tasty

  • 5/5 Antonio E. 10 months ago on Google
    If you want delicious food this is your spot. Best deals in town. They offer more than burgers they have a Mexican and Greek menu . Breakfast is served all day! They have the best fried zucchinis and onion rings. Family pack is only $29.99 it comes with 5 hamburger meals, you can add cheese for a few cents more . Then you can substitute a side of Fries for onion rings or another for zucchinis for only a few dollars more . Once you come try this spot. you'll definitely be coming back for more .

    Prices are pretty good! And everything is very clean. I like being able to see behind the counter and the cleanliness of the chef's kitchen. The chef even came to our table to give our dog a strip of bacon 👍

    This is the place for pastrami sandwiches! So good....the best.

  • 1/5 Leslie E. 1 year ago on Google
    This restaurant has terrible service. Every time I come they mess up my order. Today I got egg shells in my scrambled eggs. When ordering I was cut off constantly and felt rushed to order. I’m so over giving this restaurant chances to fix things but it fails everytime. The amount of times Ive had to get down to fix my order is limitless. Truly my order isn’t hard and it’s disappointing that this place disappoints so much. I’ve worked in fast food both regular worker and manager. So I know what it takes and I tried giving chances. But things can never be expressed enough. Now it’s just inconsideration and Laziness

    I have been coming here for years even before they changed to Hercules. I started coming in the early 2000 oh, and the food has only gotten better and services tremendous. The staff seems to be a great mixture of family and friends. They work all very well together. Portions are Apple, food is not greasy and is always fresh. We really enjoy the selection of diversity if anybody wants a hamburger and another wants Mexican and another feels like a gyro we can get it all in one place. Also best fries and onion rings around. Thanks Hercules

    Went here for breakfast the staff were friendly, the service was fast. I ordered an mushroom omelet to go it still hot after a 10 min drive home everything tasted great will be going back

  • 2/5 Geddesg G. 1 year ago on Google
    Drive thru lady rude and short with me. First time here and had no patience. Won't return. Sad because I now work in the area and planned to stop by a few times a week.

  • 3/5 Zach M. 1 year ago on Google
    Regular joint the ranch seems water down. Good size dishes and burgers for the price. Better than fast food

  • 5/5 MP M. 1 year ago on Google
    Really good burgers, reasonably priced, and large side of fries! What more can I ask for?

  • 5/5 Angela M. 1 year ago on Google
    Family owned and operated. Great service and extremely delicious food. Menu has a wide variety of food and beverage options for all to enjoy. Generous portions. My family have been happy and full customers for over 30 years even before it was Hercules and was SG Dukes!!!

  • 4/5 Ramon B. 2 years ago on Google
    The Place is FULL of absolute bargains. Really good values for almost everything on the menu. Though you get what you pay for in terms of service and product sources. If you're not a diet-monger this place is great.

  • 1/5 Bella M. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the worst food experiences of my life. The milkshake tasted like poison. And I showed up ten minutes after the order was ready, but they took another whole 10 minutes to give me my order. Terrible food. Not worth even a quarter of the price.

    Back in the 90s and early 2000s I was a frequent visitor to the Greek-Owned establishment known as "Lucky Guys Burger" in Santa Ana. Staffed by locals who knew the menu and food in and out was always a plus in my eyes. Hercules in my mind is like if they took the concept, doubled the space, increased the exposure, and doubled the menu items! Where some folks would say it's American fast food I'd say the mix of America, Latin, and European fast foods and homecooked items bring the perfect balance of flavor and comfort to the table. The prices are a little higher but with market inflation I understand - they're privately owned and operated with a quality standard that puts them in the same league as the "Big Guys" and their friendly staff is more than happy to give you a suggestion based on "what you're looking for".

    My husband said the pastrami tasted "off" and threw it away. He said the fries were ok, that he thought the oil might be too old. My food tasted good though. I specified no tomato but didn't follow instructions. Was easy enough to pick it off though
