    After a night on the town, my go to will always be a hot juicy smashburger. Hotline Burger has been on my radar for weeks and I was excited they were opened. I ordered their hotline burger- a class double smashed delight with pickles, grilled onions, cheese and their smash sauce. The garlic parm fries were an amazing add. This day was run by one lone wolf but he was very nice and everything was made to order and served fresh. Will def visit again.

    I drove by this location while heading to Chinatown, and I made a note to swing by because the vibrant colors truly intrigued me This is a walk up and order at the window type establishment. The menu is listed above the window, and while there aren't dozens and dozens of options, all their offerings sound delicious. I was actually town between which burger to go with I believe there was one attendant inside, but he was helpful, professional, and efficient. I was given a conservative eta, and the food was ready before then If you want to sit and eat there are a few lovely purple covered picnic tables Some tips: Definitely get the snack fries. They give a hearty amount of fries and the sauce is incredible. I also thoroughly enjoyed the Hotline Burger. Looking online it looks like they do catering if you want some delicious foods ordered for work, the big game, a party, etc Cheers!!

    Yes, yes and yes!!! I do love some Hotline Burger, and I was craving it mid-week and wanted to get off my healthy kick for the day. I have been to the Hwy 6 location several times, but hadn't been to this one yet, and the day was nice out, so I decided to give it a go. This location does not have indoor seating, but they do have a patio outside with covered tables which was nice for a day like that. I ordered my food at the walk-up and waited, not too long, and before I knew it, the bag was secured, and the food was ready to be inhaled! I got the Hotline burger, single patty, which was just enough, and some parmesan fries. Everything was super hot, and fresh, and with every bite, I just devoured more and more. It is really hard to go wrong with a Hotline burger when they have consistently stayed consistent. Yep, I said it! They have sustained consistency every time I go, and that is what makes me love them so much!

    This was our first time trying Hotline burger. We always love supporting local businesses! I am so happy we gave it a try! The burgers are delicious! Cooked perfectly! You can taste good ingredients down to the pickle! I ordered the jalapeno burger! Fresh jalapenos and dressed perfect! My brother ordered the classic burger. Now can we talk about French fries!! YUMMY YUM YUM!! I ordered the hot garlic parm fries, my brother ordered the cheese fries. Thin fries cooked to perfection! The seasonings are really good and different! If you are in the Sharpstown area it would behoove you to stop in and be wowed!!! Support Local

    my bride couldn't wait to eat the fries, so they were half gone by the time they arrived at the house

    Been curious to try this burger spot out in front of Strake Jesuit and St. Agnes and finally got the chance recently. While it doesn't seem like there is too much dining in here, I must say the smash burgers are excellent. The fries are very crispy, even after a good 20-30 minute ride home. This place is located on the outskirts of Chinatown on Bellaire and serves as a nice alternative to the predominantly Asian food along the street. Prices are in line with other premium burger joints. We will definitely be back in the near future!

    Only 3 tables for an outdoor dining

    Thomas doesn't like tomatoes. So, don't ask for it. Smashed burger is a trendy dish, I didn't know that. I'm so glad Hotline opened their 2nd restaurant in Chinatown. I was here during a foodie meetup event last Saturday. My friends already ate. So, I ordered mine to go. Well... it's only takeout anyway. I took mine home and I jazzed it up with more vegetables. I'm a picky eater. I have to have vegetables on my burgers. Eating this crispy patty made me want to fry an egg and add extra crispy to the texture. I like the simple concept and the standalone restaurant separate from the rest of the building at Bellaire Gessner Shopping Center aka Fiesta Plaza.

    JR. HOTLINE BURGER

    Hotline Burger is such a hidden gem!! The building formerly housed an ice cream joint which never seemed to be very busy anyway so I'm happy that Hotline Burger took its place! I generally only eat Asian food in this area but after a long beach day, we were craving burgers. Much needed sustenance! We got the junior (1 patty) hotline burger, the regular (2 patties) patty melt, along with the smack fries. Everything was so good! I'm not crazy about onions but their caramelized onions in the burger and over the smack fries are so yummy and it compliments the smack sauce well. The burgers were perfectly charred. If you like smash burgers, I think you'll love Hotline! There is a drive through but it has been closed the last 2 times that I've been. I wish it was open though because I don't prefer to get out of my car if I don't have to (especially in this Houston heat). There are 3 picnic tables out front but they were all occupied the first time I went so we had to eat in the car which got a bit messy.

    HOT AND GARLIC PARMESAN FRIES
    Judy C.

    LOVED THE FRIES!!! Ordered via their website about 5 minutes ahead and was ready within 5 minutes of waiting in the car. Got the BBQ burger and really liked the flavors. It had bbq sauce, crispy onions, pickles and American cheese. The bun was pillowy and the combination with everything paired really well. Also got two side of fries which was the Hot Fries (almost tasted like spicy ramen seasoning) and Parmesan Garlic fries (really tasty and smelled like Wingstop). One of the most crispiest fries I have ever tasted! Really great job. They had the option of drive thru, but this day I went I guess it was closed. Parking - You can park within the Confucius plaza and walk up to order/pick-up the order

    Don't sleep on this tiny smash burger joint! Honestly I wasn't sure what to expect but the burger is delicious! I ended up getting the hotline with no cheese/add jalapeños. Wow! I think it's the combination of the sauce/pickles/onions that did it! This was a solid burger and if you're thinking of trying this place, you definitely should. It lives up to its rating! Also there's plenty of parking and short wait time. The guy working there was also friendly.

    Literally nothing bad to say about this place at all. Stumbled upon this gem while in the area and I absolutely did not want the typical drive thru at a traditional fast food restaurant. Walk up window at this location and the cutest Cali style patio. The menu is solid and not overwhelming which I love! I ordered the patty melt, the bbq smash (both junior) and the parm fries. All great choices. Cooked well and crispy. The fries were amazing and not greasy which is something I also loved. The drinks are purchased separately and a little expensive. It's located right next to a grocery store if you want but totally just an idea. For myself and my daughter for lunch I spent exactly $26. I will absolutely try their other location near me on hwy 6. Will return

    Came after hearing such great reviews from friends. I have been wanting to try this place but…read morebecause it is only a breakfast spot, it has limited hours. I loved being able to see them make the rolls in front of you. The ambiance is super casual and there is limited seating inside. The service was quick and the food came out in under 5 minutes even though they were quite busy. I got the egg pancake and the tao rice roll to share with a friend and both were great! The egg pancake was crunchy and steaming hot. The egg with chives was delicious, and I liked the filling of the hot dogs, lettuce, and chili oil. (7.8/10) The tao rice roll was my personal favorite. The pork floss, lettuce, Chinese sausage, and white sauce paired so well all together. The rice was perfectly chewy and the portion was generous. (8.8/10) Both of these were super filling and reasonably priced (under $13!). For the price point you really can't beat it. I would love to come back and try more.

It was easy to eat and the insides were packed with flavors. I also tried the dumplings and they were hot and fresh. These had just the right amount of soup inside of it. However, the meat did seem like it was too chunky. Service was a little slow for the dumplings but quick with the rolls.

    Lazy Dog was one of my favorite stops during our Houston trip because it was the only restaurant…read morethat gave me my own menu. The patio is huge, comfortable, and very dog friendly. There was plenty of room for pups to spread out, and I saw dogs enjoying themselves both outside and inside the restaurant. It felt like everyone was welcome. Naturally, I ordered from the Pup Menu. I chose the grilled chicken and rice bowl, and I can confidently report that it was excellent. Fresh, simple, and completely disappeared within minutes. The humans seemed happy with their meals too. They ordered a strip steak, salmon, and a salad, and I didn't hear a single complaint from their side of the table. The staff were incredibly friendly and made a point of welcoming me as an actual guest instead of just someone's dog. Between the dedicated dog menu, the spacious patio, and the warm service, it's easy to see why this place is so popular with pet owners. If you're visiting Houston with your dog, Lazy Dog is an easy recommendation. Dogba's verdict: Five paws. Excellent chicken. Outstanding customer service. Finally, a restaurant that knows to hand me a menu first.
