I'm a lover of non chain neighborhood burger joints. This is a great example of the unique differences of places like this all over the country. They are all a little different. We will be back.
Not sure what I would do without this go to local favorite burger place around! A Nipomo staple! Are you guys available on DoorDash?
In my opinion as a Food Critic I want to dispel some of the uneducated, fast food level eating of all the unsophisticated palette of those who have compared Little Jocko's to corporate fast food. The Steak sandwich was delightful, and one may want to add some mustard or steak sauce. The Pastrami sandwich was also prepared well, for a six $ sandwich it was awesome. The fries were quite tasty. However I would ask for mine to be crispier. As for the bread LJ's uses, it is not about the bread it is about the meat, and they use a local bakery, as do many Central Coast restaurants. I look forward to my next visit. I have added pictures of today's meal
Little Jockos is a classic. They've been serving the local public for generations. Perfect place to go after a little league game or during a work day or work weekend on the property. Order ahead and take home or eat there. Little Jockos is legendary.
