Welcome to the Golden Ox Burger, an enticing hamburger restaurant nestled in the heart of Pomona, California. If you’re on the hunt for a casual yet delectable dining experience, look no further. This place serves up an irresistible array of mouth-watering burgers that will have your taste buds dancing with delight!

The moment you step inside Golden Ox Burger, you are greeted with a vibrant and laid-back atmosphere, perfect for food lovers of all ages. It’s a cozy eatery where the aroma of sizzling patties fills the air, drawing you in with anticipation. The menu, bursting with flavor-rich options, will leave you both excited and hungry.

Start your culinary journey with a side of their famed Chili Cheese Fries with Pastrami, a true showstopper that Jaime Ceballos raves about on TikTok. He describes it as “very good” with “excellent portion”—and we couldn’t agree more. Pair that with one of the house burgers, and you’ll understand why this spot is a community favorite.

If you're in the mood for something more substantial, consider their Steak Sandwich Dinner or the mouth-watering Chicken Tender Dinner, both priced under $20. The flavors burst through with each bite, providing not just satisfaction but a delightful dining experience.

For those who enjoy lighter fare, the various salads—from the fresh Green Salad to the heartier Asada Salad—are fresh and flavorful, making them a perfect complement to your meal or a satisfying stand-alone choice.

But let’s not overlook the tempting beverages. Their creamy Shakes ($9.99) are a must-try indulgence to cool off your taste buds, rounding out your experience in the sweetest of ways.

Golden Ox Burger has garnered rave reviews from customers, many of whom express how every bite is pure bliss. Elizabeth Anderson couldn’t contain her excitement as she describes their food as “absolutely amazing!” and suggests it’s a “must” for anyone in the area. Meanwhile, L. Cher gave the spot his seal of approval, further emphasizing its appeal.

However, not every visit has been flawless—Teresa L. shared her disappointment over burnt bacon during a breakfast visit, a reminder that even the best establishments can have off days. But this is a small hiccup in an otherwise celebrated experience.

So, if you're in Pomona and looking for a delectable burger spot bursting with flavor and character, make your way to Golden Ox Burger. Each visit promises a new taste adventure that will keep you coming back for more!

Saw a video on tiktok about the Golden Ox. Had to try it out. The chili cheese fries with pastrami is very good. The portion served is excellent. The burgers are also very good. Next time going to try the pastrami burrito.

I come here for breakfast or sometimes lunch. They have good prices and good food. Today, I ordered an egg and bacon breakfast plate, and I was disappointed because they burnt the bacon. It tasted like I was eating wood chips! Next time Golden Ox, don't burn the bacon! Lot's of homeless around there too, so be careful.
