Best Burger in Sacramento · Sacramento, CA
The Squeeze Inn built its Sacramento cult on the 'Squeeze with Cheese' — a burger topped with a mountain of shredded cheese that melts onto the griddle and fries into a giant, lacy 'cheese skirt' hanging off the bun. Guy Fieri's 'Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives' helped make the messy, crispy-edged creation nationally famous.
A Sacramento original dating to 1977, the Squeeze earned a devoted following for a burger unlike any other — proof that a single great idea, done relentlessly, can define a hometown favorite.
Each Centurion Award is a dated record tied to one year’s evaluation — earned annually, never carried over. Open a year for the full citation and verification details.
Awards run one calendar year and renew only if the business clears the bar again. Selection is by published criteria, never for sale.

If you’ve put in the years, you may already clear the bar. Evaluation is free, private, and never for sale.
