I really like this place. The people were very friendly and I like the atmosphere which is old collectible Coca-Cola stuff. If you're there by yourself I should just go in with the petite french fries as I got the small which was actually a large I would hate to see what a large is. The burger was cooked very well. These are Onion burgers which means they have grilled onions cooked onto the top of the patty. It was pretty good but the prize were the hit they were amazing. Also pellet ice if you're into that sort of thing.

Cute little diner with a 50's theme atmosphere. They flat grill their burgers and have a separate area for you to dress your own burger with ketchup, pickles, jalapeños, etc. There are different size burgers, I got the smallest size with a small fry and a regular drink and it was eleven dollars and some change. The burger was well seasoned and tasted great! My fries were a little soggy, but still good. They reminded me of the fries my Grandma used to make for me as a kid. We got there right before the lunch rush so it was quiet, but right about noon the line was backed up to the door! I would recommend trying this place if you haven't!

I've been coming to Dan's 30+ years. I definitely miss the old location just for the nostalgia. The onion burgers have always been the best and unlike most things they haven't changed thank goodness! Thanks for deliciously consistent!

The absolute best burger on all the south side! I would put this in the category right below Nic's grill in OKC! Great burger with tons of flavor! Price was a touch high but didn't mind after the first bite! I don't mind paying a bit more for quality! The staff was friendly and a lady who I presume was part of the managing staff was very friendly. They even told us about their grab and go breakfast section that starts at 5am for them hard working folks! I will certainly go back! Thanks Dan's!!!

Dan's is now serving Breakfast. Dan's is back!!! After closing the location on Western & 84th, they are in a new location at 104th & Western. The new location is great!! Cokeacola deco is all shined up and in place. They are fully staffed and fully stocked with all the favorites. Their menu remain the same, burgers and a few sandwiches. You don't have to have a giant menu when you nail the things you do so well! Thank you Dan's the onion burger was perfect!

We just finished lunch here at Dan's and it was delicious! Although the hamburger I had was not a true Oklahoma onion, i.e. patty smashed into the onions, the grilled onions on the burger were lip smacking good! My wife had the BLT and it was fantastic! The bacon was thick and smoky and plentiful! What a sandwich! We both had the fries that were handcut, hot and awesome! Be aware of the sizes. We order two "petite" fries and we could of got on with a single! The vibe of the restaurant was coke cola with memorabilia all over! Service was awesome and fast! Will come back when we are in the area!! Loved it!!
