    The works with cheese fries

    The wife & I decided to give this place a shot. The inside of the place leaves something to be desired. I was a little hesitant to try it after walking in. It's a whole-in-the-wall, greasy, old school hamburger joint. The service was great. There was one guy taking orders inside & thru drive thru, bring food out and cleaning up. He had great customer service. My wife got the original with onion rings and I got the works with cheese fries. The burgers were very good. Really liked the shredded cheddar cheese vs sliced. The onion rings need more seasoning. The cheese fries were great. Overall a very good meal. If you're in the mood for cheeseburger this is the spot.

    Well I am looking for lunch, view from the window reveals Lee's Hamburger stand. Checked reviews and this is a local favorite, gotta try that. A few attempts to get a parking spot and looping the crowded block at noon was adventuresome. Finally landed and went inside, cool little spot. Placed my order, an expensive burger, fry, shake lunch, makes 5 Guys seem reasonable. Food was good, the burger had shredded cheddar, kinda had a taco feel to it. Not bad, just not what I was expecting and not my personal favorite. Fries were perfectly cooked and shake was a hand made ice cream and syrup concoction that was fabulous. Would go back just for the shake, like I would make at home, but for the 6 and a half bucks I could have made a pitcher of these and had money and ice cream left over. Nice change of pace for a fairly common lunch order but a little out of my range for a daily stop.

    I was really excited to try this burger joint since it has been around for a while. However, I was disappointed. I order a burger and chicken nuggets. Starting with the nuggets, not seasoned and tasted like they were previously frozen. The burger was not seasoned at all. I will try one more time to see if maybe I ordered the wrong burger.

    Dishonest about the size of the party they serve on Togo orders. I guess the figure they can get away with it when it's a to go guests. They lost a customer with their dishonesty. No way I was given an 8oz burger.

    Double, the works.

    Burgers are consistent and employees are generally polite and helpful. The bathroom is hit or miss but the burgers are onnnnn poooooiiinnntttt!!! and cokes from there taste especially good too. Recommended. Get the one with cheese and add patty. Bustin!

    This is an unassuming little burger joint on the corner of N. Arnoult, passed it a million times. But I don't usually eat red meat. So when I do I just have a particular craving, satisfy it and done for several months. So a few days ago I wanted a burger. Not a $20 nasty flat burger like I had at Atomic or the used to be so much better in Atlanta Shake Shack, but a burger, juicy, not too seasoned, few normal toppings--a burger. And ahhhhhh the Yelp gods sent me to Lee's. They have a few types of chicken sandwiches but only fries and onion rings for our veggie and vegan friends. Four or five main burger styles, all under $10, quick drive thru with big print for all to see. And you know what else? A damn good burger. Yup. Worth every penny.

    After a major fail at Buds Broiler. I made my way to Lee's. Consistency is the key word when it comes to Lee's. A soft bin and a thick Patty is all I needed today. The burger was juicy & simply perfect. The service is fast & its just something about the fresh chopped onions that can't do any wrong. I highly recommend checking this spot out no frills but delicious & simple

    The burger was big, but did not have a good flavor. Meat wasn't seasoned well. I was disappointed.

    It's rare to step into a restaurant before the doors open, an almost behind-the-scenes experience…read more You get to see what makes people tick and who they really are. In the restaurant business, we all have a switch: once the doors open, it flips. Until then, you're seeing people exactly as they are. This team is genuine. Hands down. Yes, I know, I'm technically here for a king cake. Standing in line for a king cake from a famous fried chicken company almost feels satirical. But watching the entire team sit down together for a meal an hour before service told me everything I needed to know about the leadership and the values of this company. People matter here. You can see why the sandwiches are as good as they are. You can feel why the king cake is worth the wait. This team operates like a family; kind to one another, intentional, and connected. The food is made with care because the people are cared for. I'm not here to review the food (which is phenomenal) or the king cake. I'm here to review the brand. This is the kind of business we should be proud to support as a community. Keep it up.

    With its humble beginnings from a food truck to several locations around southern Louisiana. Please…read morerefer to the website for locations. We went to the restaurant in New Orleans (Metairie). It is off Veterans Blvd. It is on the right side as you are driving east. Please be on the lookout. Otherwise, you might pass it by. Tends to spring up and drive by. We almost missed it. This is a fantastic location! Kinda tight and almost missed it. Parking is very limited. If you get discouraged you cannot find a good parking spot. I believe you may park on back street? Do not hold me to that. Worst case, you can always get your order to go. It was our first time. We were curious about and not many restaurants offer fresh made pork cracklings. Usually you have to buy it at a local market or know someone. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They briefly went over a few recommendations. We started with of course, order of adobo fresh pork cracklings. Adobo or traditional** crispy pork belly, adobo sauce, topped with garlic peanut rub Southerns Queso burger - 6 oz. beef patty*, pickled jalapeño, queso, beer battered onion ring with order of fries. Tender meal - Choose your spice level. 3 jumbo chicken tenders, fries, and tender sauce. (Mild) Southerns Original Chicken Sandwich - Choose your spice level. Boneless chicken thigh, Yuzu aioli, slaw, housemade pickle. (Mild) I was curious about the Phuket Sauce. So I got an order too. This tastes great! Not spicy at all. Do not let the pepper fool you. It has a little kick but not spicy at all. All are well seasoned. Few of them you can choose your spice level. We all washed down with fountain drinks. They do offer catering services and possibly call ahead ordering. Please reach out to them for options. If you are in the mood for something different but great food. Give them a try if in the area.

    This was my first time ordering from Parish Grill. I ordered via Uber Eats and picked it up myself…read more The restaurant is really cute and clean with a lot of parking. The staff were super friendly and accommodating. The wedge salad was nicely presented and tasted twice as good. It's actually half a head of iceberg, which is usually not what I'm used to when I order this kind of salad to go--the boxes usually aren't large enough! Very nice surprise. Generous amount of toppings as well as you can see in the photo. The pizza was also very good: crunchy crust, generous amount of toppings, and perfect temperature. It's probably the best cauliflower crust I've ever had. I was tempted to order something sweet, but I decided to behave myself. There's blueberry cheesecake Maybe next time! I will be back!! PS...My photos could have been better. Sorry!

Seriously, one of the best burgers I've had. I kept repeating out loud, "omg, this is so good" every time I took a bite. We also ordered the Cheesy Bacon fries and they tasted like a French fry version of a potato skin, which was amazing. Very small dining area (especially for my Mother-in-Law who uses a walker), but overall a great experience. I will 100% return. P.S. if the owner or manager reads this. We had Layla as our server, and she was super sweet. My Mother-in-Law was having a really difficult time getting from her chair to her walker, and she stepped in to help. We really appreciated that, so thank u, Layla!

The biggest negative for me is that this is a smoking bar and while they do have a HUGE space that usually makes the smoking not such a problem that changes fast during the peak Friday nights when they offer their 2 for 1 burger special when it gets so smoky that I can't handle it. My visits during the weekday seemed quite pleasant but the crowded weekends just get far too smoky for me unfortunately. The burgers and ribeye steaks here are fairly priced and better than you get at many far fancier and way more expensive restaurants. I've eaten a LOT of steaks and enjoyed plenty of good steak nights around the New Orleans area but the ribeye here is by far one of the best I've had anywhere. The service at the bar and at the tables is quick, friendly and overall just a great experience. This is some of the best bar food I've had anywhere and just one of the best options for a great steak and burger at a great price anywhere.
