Sparky`s Giant Burgers in Oakland

The service here is fast and very competent. They know how to make a burger. Food is always very fresh and very very tasty. friendly staff as well. Just a great little place all around to grab a bite.

Great little burger shack! I love the way their tables are set up. Fast service and excellent lemonade. Good place to go after a day of hiking.

Very tasty chicken salad, extremely fast service, we were served our order after 3 minutes. Friendly staff. My dad ordered the hamburger and said it was the best he had on our roadtrip.

Love Sparky's! Fun, casual dining with delicious burgers and fixings. Yummy shakes. A favorite spot for a satisfying meal!

The food was great, the customer service needs improvement.

Place has been in business for a long time and for good reason. You wont go wrong from anything on this menu.

We had a good experience ordering takeout during the shutdown. Easy to place the order, ready on time, same quality as usual.

Burgers are great here and the fries too. Curly and sweet potato

I did an online order and it was ready on time. They had to substitute some of the fried veggies but all good and delicious nonetheless. Great mom and pops burgers, shakes, fried stuff, with good ingredients.

I have never ate here till today and it turned out to be good. Avocado burger was good but looks like they have more then just burgers here.

Fantastic little spot! Fast food prices for great restaurant preparation/taste. The burger was delicious and everything on it was clearly fresh. The milkshakes and fries are top-notch, not just the bare minimum to fill out the menu. This place was pretty busy for 2pm on a weekday, but we were able to get a seat immediately, and the service was very friendly and quick (less than 10 minutes wait).

Solid burger. Great taste and fresh veggies. Will eat again.

I'm here at least once a week because it so close to home. Easy ordering at the walk up window. Very limited seating. Portions are large and flavorful and surprisingly not too greasy.

The burgers and fries were better than average. In and out burgers are half the price though. The joint was jumping even after the noon rush. We were lucky and got an outside table. The inside tables were occupied. There is one of those unwieldy, walk-in freezer thick plastic curtains at the entrance which just added to the rather claustrophobic vibe. My friend's malted had chucks of malt in it. He wasn't pleased. I told him and my wife the burgers were better than Nation's. Friend disagreed but he's often a contrarian. Wife really liked the burgers. Burgers aren't lobster thermodore. They didn't disappoint. Too pricey and claustrophobic for my taste though.

Wow. Wow. Wow. Best onion rings I've ever had. The fried zucchini was also amazing! Thick cut and thick battered. Burgers were tasty, all toppings fresh. Prices are very low compared to the quality of food and portions.

Excellent burger... Loved the tempura dipped onion rings.

Great jalapeno burger. Very delicious, double delicious when hungry.

Employees receive oder older but not be polite to the delivery person.

Delicious food 😋 yummy best palace to get a burger 🍔

I bought an amburguesa with avocado and it came out raw but it is the first time it happens to me because there the amburguesas are very good

Grilled chicken on sourdough was delicious. Liked the light tempura batter on the onion rings. My daughter's burger was drippingly juicy.

Food was good, but when I asked for refill my soda the second time , she said that it was allowed only one time.

Another decepointed experience. Used to be a good place. 0 stars for service. I'm very big on supporting mam and pap and small business, not this one any more.

Says to order online no more phone orders..ok..so I did..got there..no order..had to wait n they still screwed it up..did not get 2 items but paid for. I stopped going there because of this but I thought OK I'm here let's give them a chance sorry Sparky you blew it again

Bacon Avacado Burger was delicious, fresh, juicy and tasty!! Love coming to this location.

Great burgers, great prices for what you get. They have the best home made onion rings. If you go with someone, share the fries. They are really large servings.

Great local spot for burgers, fries and milkshakes. Curly fries are a win.

RUDE RUDE & RUDE! If you dont mind spending your money on overpriced average food then this is perfect for you. The Oriental lady that owns the once famous Sparkys is absolutly rude. The food I ordered is not what I had in my bag when I went back the lady was like So. She was going to charge me for another burger. The old owners of Sparkys would never treat customers in this manner.

Went here for the first time after living in the area for over ten years. Cute woodsy dinner aura. Great burger joint with fish, fries and shakes.

Outstanding burger, BEST sweet potato fries....Very clean, excellent, courteous service.

Good burgers, great on an empty stomach

Great food, interesting little piece. Not a ton of seating. Has outdoor seating. Did I say the food is great?!!! They have fantastic burgers and great teriyaki chicken salads. I recommend you give them a try.

Burgers were tasty and the fries were generous. Parking was ok. You may have to wait a little because you are competing with phone orders. Will come back again if I am in the area.

Delicious, traditional burger stand, local favorite, gets busy every day, especially weekends. Great fries, home made fresh daily. Tuna melt on sourdough is also good.

Food was great! A 2nd employee is need for Uber/post pick ups...

I've gotten a good burger there. They didnt melt the cheese on my tuna melt last week. Pretty disappointing for $9

Milk Shakes Yummmmm, expensive but good. If their hamburger were Bigger, I'd come here every day and buy my dogs Hamburgers! 3 Stars I would go there again, cute seating area.

Fries are the lame bag ones but the burgers are pretty darn good.

One of my favorite hole in the wall burger joints. Delicious burgers, the sides are surprisingly excellent as well and they come with a little cup of ranch. I could be biased as I mainly come here after hiking.

The burgers always hit the spot. They also have a great variety, sweet potato fried, deep fried mushrooms, zucchini and much more. I always get a burger. It can be packed they are busy. You can eat indoor or outdoor. 👍👍

Perfectly satisfied our craving for a not-fancy grilled burger.

This is a chill little hide out for good burgers and sandwiches. With indoor and outdoor seating, you have options. There is a restroom around the front of the building so if you're eating inside, you'll have to make the journey outside. The tuna melt is on point, cheesey melt in your mouth goodness!! Add bacon & it's even better!! All the windows and greenery add a special bonus!

This is a small, well loved local burger shop at the redwood shopping center. Although tucked in a corner of the parking lot, they arranged plants and shrubs such that it looks from the inside like you are perched inside a rustic cabin out in the country. I enjoy it for this reason as much as anything else. the menu is no frills, All American burger shop offerings with some fish and fried options as well. Great prices. Fast service. Easy parking.

First time there. So sad I don"t live close by. Everything my sisters and I ordered was so yummy. Food served quickly. Interior is small but, really cozy. Definately will visit when in town.

It would be better if there was a sign to say where the lines start. Now it is whichever group starts it first either from the right or left. Makes more sense to start from the right, pick up your order and move left to get condiment, fork, straw etc...

The meat is low quality. The fries are good.

Sparky's is definitely a hidden gem nestled behind trees in a strip mall parking lot. There is an inside seating area and patio area with cute patio lighting. Orders are taken at a walk-up window. I ordered the Salmon Teriyaki and my date ordered the Salmon Steak Salad. The portions were generous and flavorful! We split and devoured the perfectly seasoned French Fries! To our surprise even at 8PM there was quite a crowd people, which speaks volumes for a random Tuesday! Sparky's is a must definitely looking forward to trying other menu options my next visit! P.S. Sparky's is a must eat when I come home (born and raised in Oakland) to visit. I share with my family and for the first time I shared with a date.

Awesome Hamburger stand in the Oakland hills. Bacon Bleu cheese Burger is to die for.💣

Possibly best burgers I ever had. If only I didn't live in Ireland! 😋😋😋
