    I came here with a couple of my buddies tonight and I have to say that the service here is incredible. The host, Eli Hogan, had a smile on his face the whole time and graciously waited for me to decide what I wanted to order. He even suggested the hickory burger which was excellent. He checked in on my table numerous times to see how we were doing and I told my friends that I want my son to be like Eli when he grows up.

    Stopped by after seeing the huge Google review count (over 3K). Burger is around $20—decent, but nothing really special about it. Fries weren’t that good: a little soggy and not well-fried. Their serving system is unique—you order at the front, they bring the food to your table, and you pay at the end. Still not sure how tipping works in that setup.

    I heard so much about this place and it was a complete disappointment. The burger I got was wet and gross. Not juicy, wet like a small puddle of water in it. The bread was stale and the patty had mediocre flavor. Another classic overhyped place with below average burgers. There are 100 more places in Houston than has burgers that are 100x better than this place. Don’t waste your money.

    In my personal , "Quest for the Best Cheeseburger in Houston" this place is winning the contest. I will still try others but, I will definitely be making return visits to this place...

    Chelsea was an amazing server! Thank you. Burgers are pretty good but not too out of the ordinary. We ate at lunchtime in and we chose the small room because of the noise level in the main room. But then halfway our meal, an employee sat down right next to our table to be in online training. The volume of his cell was so loud that I started having difficulty hearing my friends. This was very rude! Other employees came and went and no one noticed how loud he was. Finally another employee that was sitting next to him turned the volume down after like 30 Minutes of us listening to that training. I want to have peace and relax when I am eating, I don’t wanna be bothered by a loud voice of a trainer.
