★★★☆☆ 3.0 Kal Meyers · Feb 2026

This place serves burgers that arrive looking like they could bench-press your car—the size of manhole covers - impressively massive, the kind of patty that makes you question portion control and your life choices But bite down and… yep, disappointing Sahara-level disappointment. The only moisture at the table is your tesrs. The patty has been grilled so long it’s basically auditioning for a role as ancient beef jerky. It's been cooked and smashed to the exact hydration level of a Saharan dune on July 4th at high noon. We're talking desert-dry "I forgot what moisture tastes like" territory It's so overdone it could double as a hockey puck in the Stanley Cup finals—if the puck had the personality of a sad, $24 regret Pricing remains a crime scene: - Double bacon cheeseburger: $24 (yes, y

I've heard of this place for several years but never quite made it there. Either it was closed or I was working. Regardless, we finally had a chance to go on a chilly Saturday. We could see that it was busy with all the cars outside. Let me just say, the wait was all worth it! The burgers were huge and perfectly made. The meat was sooo tasty and the veggies were fresh. Unfortunately, the pics don't do it justice. Be sure to bring cash, and plenty of it. Food is pricy.

Loved this burger place!! Don't expect great decor or ambiance just great food!! Gigantic burger left no room for the sides but that didn't stop us from trying their fries and onion rings!! The meat is so delicious!!! Everything was great!!! If you are a local expect a large lunch rush because our winter Texans love this joint!!!! Can't wait to come again!!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Gabriel Findlay · Feb 2026

Its not bad but its not great especially for the price. The meat doesnt have much flavor. Its just a standard burger prepared a little differently. The fries are decent but not a reason to come here just for that. Payed 70$ for two double cheeseburgers, one single cheeseburger and two 5$ fries. If this price was cut in half I would give it a higher rating but its just too much money and such a long wait for a burger that doesnt have much to write home about. My mom actually hated it and she eats mcdonalds if that means anything. She did not like the texture of the meat.

This place is iconic, and even though there's no sign anymore, you can tell this place is a hotspot. Meat quality was excellent, and the size of the burger was immensely satisfying. Top that off with buttered and toasted buns, tasty fries, and a vintage atmosphere that's getting harder to find as the years pass by. I would definitely come here again (but earlier!). Be prepared to wait a while if you come in after 12, but you'll be glad you stayed.
