Burntzilla offers comfort food, Irvine-style
By Irvine City News staff
Irvine’s restaurant scene has changed significantly in recent years. Chain restaurants are closing, replaced by chef-driven spots, often featuring intriguing Asian and fusion flavors. Many bemoan the loss of old favorites like Denny’s and Marie Callender’s, while others are excited by the evolving culinary options.
Those who want both the comfort of the familiar and a touch of culinary creativity should try Burntzilla. Born out of the success of two OC food trucks, The Burnt Truck and Dogzilla, the fast casual restaurant debuted in early 2015 offering mini hot dogs and hamburgers.
Located at Culver and Walnut, the small spot’s menu is innovative, and affordable. Sliders and Zillas are only $3 each. Order a simple hot dog, or try the Yaki Dog, which includes a spicy Cajun pork link topped with yakisoba noodles.
Next up from the Burntzilla team is Burnt Crumbs, a café offering their take on classic sandwiches. It’s coming in June to Los Olivos Marketplace. burntzilla.com
