I'm really surprised at so many negative reviews. El Cap makes a great homemade burger. I think too many people have gotten used to fast food burgers and don't know a good burger when they get one. They are juicy, not... (more)

This little hole in the wall was a great date! My hubby and I are foodies, I will admit this. So, when he took me here I was apprehensive. The waitress was so nice and the burgers were just how we wanted them and the flavor... (more)

I have gone to El caps for over 30 years and today was my last visit. Each time the burger gets smaller and the price gets larger. They actually now charge for lemon slices 25 cents with your over priced drink ( no free... (more)

I was born in St PETE in 1964 - my folks brought me here in the "early days", & it was a treat for my sisters & myself to visit then. We moved to California in 1978. I just returned home this year to live (FEB 2009) & started... (more)

This place is horrible. Call me stupid, but I went twice just to make sure I wasn't dreaming about this horrible burger experience. How this place has a reputation for having a good hamburger, I will never know. First,... (more)

Go here! They grind their own hamburger meat daily. A St. Pete fixture for over 20 years- small place but you will leave satisfied- best burger in town. Check out their chicken wings too, you wont be sorry!... (more)

I lived in this town for an eternity without having an El Cap burger. I could live another eternity without one. As I drove past the other options on 4th St today, something drew me here- maybe all the times I was invited... (more)

I have been there at least 3 times...in the last 5 yrs. Once with my sister and a couple of times for takeout orders. Honestly, I am originally from San Francisco. The people in St Pete haven't a clue what good food is. I... (more)

I dont understand some of these reviews at all! How anyone can complain about the burgers here and the cost is beyond me! I'm not even much of a burger person so I almost didnt try one the first time I went. I'm so glad I... (more)

What a disappointment. We have been going here for years and it WAS the best....NO MORE. Burger with everything and fries, how hard could that be? The meat was grey in the center and tasted like the stuff you got back in... (more)

What a joke. Forget the hype. This dirty little grease pit has lousy service, lousy hamburgers and charges for refills. Oh, and the fries are nasty as well. And don't get me started on the cleanliness (or lack of) in... (more)

Juicy burger on a cheap bun makes this one of the best in the bay area. They grind their own meat daily which makes the difference. Their own recipe for the spicy mustard is outstanding but you have to make sure you order... (more)

I have had many a burger and I must say, this is definately one of the best. They do charge for everything, but in this day and age I can accept that. For under $20 my husband and I had burgers, fries and beer... ICE COLD... (more)

We decided to check this place out after seeing that their burgers always seem to be listed near or at the top of any Best of the Bay type lists, and though we were in for a real treat. Eh, not so much. The place is dirty,... (more)
