Gott’s Roadside


With a vision to serve the finest classic American roadside food in a friendly and fun atmosphere, the Gott brothers, Joel and Duncan, began Gott’s Roadside, formerly Taylor’s Refresher, in 1999. Gott’s Roadside is a different kind of burger joint. Serving juicy cheeseburgers, great hot dogs, incredible fries, and hand-spun shakes alongside crispy mahi mahi tacos, Chinese chicken salad, and a renowned ahi burger, their versions of these American roadside favorites and California classics are made-to-order using fresh, locally sourced ingredients. In 2006, the restaurant received the James Beard Foundation Award, the most prestigious food and beverage award in the country, designating them as one of “America’s Classics” and solidifying their iconic status.
