    Flip 'n Patties (Just the Burger)
    Patrick L.

    We visited the Understory and played a few rounds of ping pong. After playing, we were hungry. The only place still open around 8 pm was Flip'n Patties. They are located on the lower floor with big open spaces and shared with other food stalls. I remember visiting the food truck when they are just starting years ago. They have an interesting mix of fusion Filipino food. I remembered liking their food. We ordered the Flip'n Patties burger and jeepney burger. They were huge with a thick patty. For their namesake burger, it also came with a fried portabella mushroom on top. Jeepney burger came with longanisa patty on top and tasted sweet. We were glad that we skipped the fries as we were stuffed after eating those burgers. Both of them are delicious and highly recommended. They also have rice pates with different combination of meats. Service was quick and friendly. We waited for our food at a nearby table. They call your name when it's ready. You also have an option to sit at the counter and watch as your food is made. Look forward to checking out the rest of their menu next time we are in the area.

    Delicious Filipino fusion burgers. As part of Understory food hall downtown, there's plenty of seating as well a handful of seats at the counter. Seating at the counter you get a front row seat to the vibey upbeat atmosphere where the Filipino cooks clearly enjoy infusing flavor into the burgers. The generous sized burgers are tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. If you order a side of fries, you end up with a mountain of food. It's a little on a pricey side, but on par with the offerings from Understory / other offerings downtown of that caliber.

    Fast and friendly service and the food is deeeeeelicious. Love that I can get Filipink comfort food downtown. Lechon kawali plate is my favorite, but they have alot of other options.

    Flip'n Patties is a Filipino-American fusion restaurant with two locations in Houston. The menu has several Filipino-influenced burgers with bao for buns! One can also order a garlic rice dish, chicken wings, or fries! There is plenty of variety. When I dined at Flip'n Patties there were several menu items that were unavailable because they had run out of certain ingredients - aka. Rice and mushrooms. But, what I did order was delicious! I ordered the Puet burger - Wagyuru beef, diced pecan smoked pork butt, sautéed onions, provolone, house blend mayo, and FnP tang sauce. It was flip'n good! Paired with the Flip'n fries (which I got upgraded to a large for free thanks to the Friday special), I had a HUGE and tasty meal. The fries were massive, crisp, and covered in shredded cheese and banana ketchup aioli. Let's just say, I shared with a friend and still had lots of leftovers to bring home. The service was great. Kiko was very friendly, gave us suggestions on what to order and got our food out to us fast! The food hall was pretty empty when I went, but this could have been because it was the week of Christmas. There was plenty of seating. The area was kept clean, but there were cleansing towels to wipe down tables at the trash cans, if necessary. Note: This location is in a food hall downtown in the Bank of America building. Be prepared to either pay for parking in a garage or spend time searching for street parking (which you will still have to pay for at the meter if it is before 6PM). I was able to park in the Bank of America garage and get my parking validated by Flip'n Patties, but that was only because it was after 4PM.

    Flip n' patties was one of the few burger places that caught my eye with its uniqueness. They add a Filipino twist to their burgers and have some special cultural diahes as well. I thought their location in memorial was too far but they actually have a location in downtown in the Understory. I didn't know what the understory was before but it is actually really nice inside with a ton of entertainment such as ping pong tables. I got the puet burger which is an akaushi beef patty topped with marinated pecan smoked pork butt, caramelized onions, provolone, mayo, and flip n patties tang sauce. That day I also learned that puet means butt. I got a side of flip n fries as well. They were loaded with shredded cheddar, spicy sauce, banana ketchup aioli, and cilantro. The beef patty could've been more moist but the smoked pork butt was perfection. It added a lot of flavor and was much more tender. I could eat a burger with that to replace my beef patty. The fries were really solid as well. They were cut thick and the sauce was actually a bit spicy. The portion size was really big as well, enough to feed 2 or more people. I also tried the lechon kawali and it was pretty good. It had a crispy exterior with a lot of fat inside and it paired well with the mang tomas sauce. One of my friends got the chicken pupu plate and I didn't try it but it looks like it would smack. My other friend flip rolls (lumpia) and liked it but they thought it was small. Overall a pretty solid place and a lot of options. Parking in the Bank of America parking garage is only $8 on the weekend and it's elevator goes straight to the understory

    The food is all right for a quick office lunch. The waiting time for food preparation is kind of long. Like the new renovated environment.

    Flip 'n Patties is quality Filipino fusion food in Houston. It's not the typical, authentic Filipino food that I'm used to eating, but I guess that's the whole point of it being "fusion." Service is great, and food is very flavorful. We ordered the chicken pupu plate and flip 'n fries. The chicken was crunchy, sweet and was a perfect complement to the spicy, umami fries. Pro tip is to add the chicken on top of the fries to make it loaded and an explosion of flavors. I'm pretty picky about my fries and these fries were the fresh version, like Five Guys/Wing stop fries. They were soft on the inside and crispy on the out. Overall, recommend this place especially for a cheat meal. We'll be back to try their burgers.

    Located in the food court at Understory in downtown Houston, my friend and I decided to eat here since we had passed it on the way to and away from the restroom (lol) and my god, the smell was hard to pass on. I never usually eat Filipino food but always knew they made food with great flavors. My friend and I settled on the mini kamayan, and like everyone else said, it definitely feeds 3-4 people instead of the 2 people stated on their menu. What a great value! The rice had a buttery/garlicky taste that was oh so good. The different meats within the kamayan all had their own flavors and textures. I was extremely impressed that I liked all of them. My favorite would probably be the grounded patties. The kamayan also comes with a sweet and sour sauce and gravy that compliments the meats. Shoutout to the workers there that night who really took care of me and my friend! They were the sweetest and had great energy.

    So I'm working downtown now in the BoA tower and Understory below our building in the tunnels has some pretty great lunch options. I decided to try Flip'n Patties as I remember from when they were just a food truck, but never had the chance to try them out. I'm a burger fanatic and have very high expectations. I do try to limit my carbs, but was craving fries this day, so I opted for the burger as a salad and I'm happy this was an option for any burger. I got the Pogimelt salad and my fries of course. The fries were perfectly crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside, salty and just what I needed! My enjoyed the Pogimelt salad although I couldn't finish it. The patties were a bit larger than I usually like, and could have been a bit better with a little more caramelization, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. The service was friendly (I ate at the counter), and I will definitely be back! If you happen to be downtown, I'd definitely stop by Understory to give them a try.

    Staying in a hotel a few blocks away and decided to try this place. Amazing!! We tried Mimi Kamayan - which is not mini- and loved it. Fresh cut fries are also very good. Highly recommend by us- and the other customers who we chatted with. Grandmas chicken pupu was super good.

    Great good. Fast service. Love every bit. The burger I got reminded me of the Shack Stack at shake shack. This was much better. So much depth of flavor. Amazing burger. Must try. Burger was huge.

    Lechon Kawali Plate
    Melena S.

    I was introduced to this place during a tunnel tour and they said it was some of the best Filipino food in Houston and has been named that for years so I knew I had to try it. The pictures were beautiful and the idea of lechon kawali had me firm in this decision for this place for lunch! I got a lechon kawali plate which included garlic rice. I thought it was good but very salty. Too salty for me to finish tbh. But portions and prices were excellent. I hear the burgers there are delicious so I'd come back to try them.

    Food was amazing and the customer service was top notch. We entered the restaurant and we were…read moreimmediately greeted with kindness. Definitely recommend checking this place out!

    Super popular burger spot in Houston - but is it worth the hype?…read more It is a build your own burger concept with fast service. Food comes out quickly and you are able to modify it however you want! There are coloring sheets for children and wifi. Lots of seating to eat (both indoor and outdoor). There is a soda fountain and water that is self serve. Definitely a place to hang out with friends/family and grab a quick bite to eat. loved the SWEET SOURDOUGH as the bun since it was slightly sweet and had a nice squishy like chew. The sourdough element really gives it that tug that I love in bread. the patties are thin, lacy, and smashed. Nicely salty and seasoned. for the sauce I would recommend the SCALLION AIOLI since it was warming and garlicy adding a really nice punch of flavor. the SWEET POTATO FRIES were a delicious side (crisp, piping hot, tasty). Overall I have not much to knock burgerchan on - besides their lack of lettuce wraps as an option haha but they do offer your burger on a bed of lettuce. they also have super fun unique milkshakes like vietnamese coffee, black sesame, etc (I'd try that next time). lots of sides and protein patty options in case you don't eat beef. they also have chicken, turkey, and falafel.
