In Short
Skyline's nostalgic '50s-style decor of Formica counters and Naugahyde booths and bustling, no-nonsense service are true to its "burger and shake" drive-in heritage. Families and young couples come for its signature dish, the Skyline, a lean burger towering with lettuce, tomatoes and onions. The fries and onion rings are crisp, but the real draw is the malted milkshakes in hot fudge and mint chip. More fountain specials include the sexy butterscotch sundae.

This was possibly the worst burger I've ever had. The patty was thin, the fries and onion rings were greasy. Basically the hike up the mountain in the fog was not worth the food we got. The price was cheap and the shakes were ok, but the burger sucked and wasn't worth the drive.

I love driving up to this old drive-in atop Skyline Blvd. It has been around since the 40's I believe. They have comfy red booths that fill up quick for lunch. This place is a local favorite. I love the strawberry shakes but they usually offer many seasonal flavors. Like stepping back in time.

If you like overcooked, greasy burgers with no taste beyond the grease then this is the place for you. Ironically the other menu items fare better than the burgers, but to rate this the best burger against Heathman, Castagna and many others is simply ludicrous. Even Helvetia Tavern, which has slipped in recent years, offers better burgers and better fries. Sorry but don't believe the hype on this one.
