I ate here a few years ago and loved it and wondered why it took me so long to return. I ordered the Schwack Burger with cheese. It was big and delicious on a soft, slightly toasted bun with sliced tomatoes, lettuce, and red onions just the way a really well made burger is supposed to be. The service was terrific: super friendly woman at the cashier and an equally super friendly woman who brought the burger to my table. Very nice staff. The ambience was super chilled and friendly. And the price of the cheese burger was $11.50 --- which nowadays and in Dana Point is pretty amazing. Great food, great service, chilled vibes, great prices. I'll be back again soon.

Whoever the cook is now is nailing it. The Al's burger includes real thick cut bacon not that thin see-through crap at other places. The fried onions and then add the spuds cooked properly with a crisp not al dente. Well worth the price when you think about it.. Services just fine... Food even better

The staff were knowledgeable about the menu and helpful in guiding our order. We ordered the ahi burger, vegetarian burger, Shwack spuds, and the kids chicken sandwich. The whole family loved their choices!

The food was delightful. We finished our meal with some spicy bloody Marys with just the right zing, which I adore. I chose the bourbon brisket sandwich for my main course, and it was a real treat. The brisket was incredibly tender, melting in my mouth with each bite. On the side, I had the shwack spuds, which were wonderfully crispy and added a perfect crunch. The service was also top-notch; our dishes arrived promptly, making the whole dining experience all the more enjoyable.

Amazing burger. My husband constantly says on his top three burger. We generally get a big al with double patty and add avocado and share that with their spuds. So amazing. Highly recommend. Great hot wings also.

Need everyone to understand one thing. If you want a ridiculously good burger after a surf/workout, this is your place. They call their fries spuds, which are FIRE. The food usually comes out fast and hot. We go here probably 1-2 times a week depending on if we're home and not traveling. One of our favorite spots. A very surf vibe inside as well. This is not your fine dining restaurant so if you're looking for that, this isn't your place. This is an order up front and they bring your food out to you. They have a great selection of burgers, sandwiches, and other things. Love Shwack. Cheers.

My boyfriend and I stopped by for lunch the other day and it was pretty good! We both got burgers and fries. The cheesy bacon fries, the ranch, and the shwack sauce are the highlights of our meal. We enjoyed our burgers too but for some reason they weren't too flavorful. I really needed to dunk it in sauce. The fries are crisped to perfection and sooo yummy. I loved them with the nacho sauce and ranch! Our food came out fairly quick and we overall enjoyed our meal. I would probably come back to try something else! Last time I was here was years ago and I think they only had burgers but they have a big menu now.
