M & G Burgers & Beverages, Fairfax

I'm trying to locate a girl who used to work (old girlfriend) at M&G in 1962, her name was Judy and she lived in Novato at the time. Any info would help, magarter@comcast.net Also I've eaten at the M&G many times, just an ok place to grab a burger.

Barely average food, disgusting Caesar salad. We ate here on Sunday 3/17/08. If the food had been made this way in 1962 when this stand claims to have opened, it is a mystery how it has stayed open. The Caesar salad was made with romaine bottom ends (the part you would throw away if making a salad), bottled dressing, minimal cheese. Hamburger meat was obviously a frozen patty from who knows where, and not properly seasoned or cooked. You can generally tell a good hamburger place by the smell, but this had only minimal char odor (it should have been a warning to stay away), and the burgers had only faint charred taste on oversized bun, with a small piece of lettuce. Buns had a faint odor of having been stored too long, and were not toasted on bottoms . Of course they were out of organic beef (despite the sign on the roof). One wonders, in view of the overall lack of quality, if it were ever there. If you think it is impossible to ruin something without cooking, think again. Soda was watered down and not very good either. Crinkly fries were good, and the only thing we had that was. Help could not be bothered to give forks with the salad and it took repeated requests to get. Obviously interrupting the staff cellphone calls. If you want a good hamburger at a stand, go to In-n-Out or Phyllis'. I read Mark Escobar's comments as to his restaurants. In view of his comments about quality food and ingredients, one wonders if he is on vacation or sold his interest. I can't imagine how he would like the food of the quality we were served. If you want further reviews, check the ones at yelp.com as well.

M&G's is the best palce for quick fast in and out food. Their burgers are great. The veggies burgers are tasty. They have a special sauce that is good on their fries. The staff is always friendly. The kid in the area love to go here. Our son eats there at least once a week. He likes their chicken burgers.

Never been to the one in Fairfax but I stumbled upon them today in Larkspur on Magnolia. Great old time burgers and fries. Nice plain toasted bun and quick friendly service.

Yummy, a great place to blow the diet. They have organic burgers too.

m&g is easily the best burger place in marin. nice and simple, and theres a little of everything in every bite. i like the bacon cheeseburger cause they use killer bacon...
