The Scene
Only open for lunch, this former bus depot now serves up burgers to hordes of hungry locals and curious tourists. Inside, a counter offers a few stools, but most folks stand in line to score a table on the patio. To keep diners cool during the hot months, Tyler's provides misting machines, but an icy glass of homemade lemonade will usually suffice.
The Food
Tyler's makes its famous burgers using fresh, high-grade beef. The thick and intensely juicy patties are topped with cheese or chili, then gently set between two impossibly light, freshly baked buns. Indulgent, yes, but even actress/thigh mistress Suzanne Somers is a regular and even has her own signature bun-less creation. Vegetarians get the obligatory gooey garden patty made with brown rice and cheese. Whatever you order, be sure to side it with a small bowl of cole slaw--crisp cabbage bathed in a light sweet cream sauce that zings with black pepper.

This is a wonderful place, the food is excellent and the staff friendly. The prices are high but well worth it. Great place to watch people. If it was more resonable we would eat there more.

I grew up in Philly (land of the cheese steak) and lived in New York and then L.A. and San Francisco over the next 30 years. I've eaten hamburgers from coast to coast and no burger I ever ate was as delicious, fresh, tender and tasty as Tyler's. Everything is prepared fresh that day including fresh ground high quality beef, fabuloso, heavenly rich and creamy cole slaw and potato salad. No left over grease for their fries. FRESH, FRESH, FRESH and delicious. And, YES, the service is slow, but if you're looking for fast....go to McDonald's. If you want the very best of the best and don't mind the wait for high quality burgers and all the fresh sides, then TYLER'S is the place you've been looking for. And they put out fresh cold water for pets. For all you in a hurry people, there's a McDonald's and Burger King just blocks away. I'm sure they'll serve you up some greasy prototype burgers real fast. LOL.

While the food is comparable to anything out there the service leaves much to be desired. The servers help those who they feel will tip them well while ignoring everyone else. The bus staff seems to be a bit more helpful than the owner. If you are looking for a place to waste time dont mind the heat and slow service give tylers a try, Otherwise avoid it like a bad cold. They have frys that are greasy buns that are hard and the meat is undercooked while keeping the grease to drip off like ice cream on a hot summers day. This place should be sold to someone who wants to live up to the hype about the name because its so bad its just a shame.
