Way past good... – This places is wonderful! I first discovered the deliciousness that is Willie's after a mock trial competition my Sophomore year of High School, when we went to grab some burgers after a late night. After that I was in love with the Slammer, and later Hammer 3, and I love nothing more than to wash it down with a large Cola. My one, miniscule complaint about the joint is that you feel kinda like a slob if you drop anything on the table, which is a feat in itself with the Slammer, but it's so worth it. On a ... read more

great chlil very close 2 pinks in L.A – There n back again, or my trip to willie's chiliburgers I had heard that there was a hamburger joint in Sacramento faithfully reproducing a pinks or Tommy's chili experience. There almost is . The chili is a near knockoff of pinks chili which is great, but the hot dog n burger experience is off the mark. The staff is using microwaves to heat the hot dogs, burgers, n chili. The chili is a little to thick, needs less flour. Needs to be served hotter "not more spicy" hotter temp. The toma... read more

Benn going for year – I read the other reviews and being a local of Sacramento I must tell you I have been going to get hamburgers here for years since I was 14 in fact and I always take people who have never had the joy of this great timeless place.

This den of burger iniquity serves up such messy,delicious fare that it asks diners to make cleanliness a virtue. – The Scene Willie's is different from any other burger joint around. It's cleaner. So clean, in fact, that in addition to its scrubbed-down black and white checkerboard floor, Willie's has mounted paper towel dispensers on the walls, encouraging its customers to be as spic-and-span as its staff. The Food These juicy burgers, top-notch shakes, yummy fries and tamales--yes, tamales--served with hot chili, tomatoes... read more

Chiliburger – They have a fairly good knockoff of a "Tommy Burger" (If you are from L.A. you know what I'm talking about. My only gripe is unlike Tommy's which is always excellent, it can be hit-or-miss here at Willies, sometimes you get a great burger, sometimes less. The folsom location seems better (and with Sudwerk's on tap, it's worth the trip).

Good grease!! – Gorged myself on the best hamberger that I have had in a while--the Hammer 2 with pastrami and bacon and shared the onion rings, which were to die for with two other people. I can only afford to splurge on the calorie overload once a month.
