    Cowboy Burger Combo
    William B.

    Amazing burger and fries. The cowboy burger has sausage and cheese and an amazing burger on a slightly buttered bun that is fantastic. The burger by itself will fill you up. The french fries were fresh and extremely tasty. No need for ketchup or anything else.Because this meal was delicious just by itself. You'll need to pay before you get your order and then take a seat afterwards. This is a homestyle family run restaurant. It's clean and meat and very popular with locals. The exterior is not much but the food and service make up for the exterior.

    Decent burger but not worth the hype. Not made to order. Over priced in my opinion. Yummy but not special. Only outdoor seating.

    Inside

    To start I almost missed it driving by. A small establishment off the side of the road. Has an old diner/ burger joint feel to it as you walk in. The service is polite and very welcoming. The music is awesome because I like old 60's/70's music. You walk in and head to the counter, order and then they assign you a table. I ordered the Mad Mack. About the size I thought, and I'm sure just as messy. The fries are well seasoned. I was correct the burger was fantastically messy. I will say I was not impressed as I was hoping the taste. The menu says Mack season or sauce, I tasted nothing more than the grease. I tasted a lot of salt on the burger which could have been from the bacon but still I think there was an excess. The fries were the best part of this meal, and to be honest the fries were not that great. They were not fried the way I prefer but for some they might be great. I liked the atmosphere, the service, and the potential of what could be here. Now, I only had one meal. From what I seen was people coming in and ordering their favorites. So, maybe check it out and get something that may be good. I will have to come back at a later date to order and try something else, I'm hoping my review will change.

    Double Cheeseburger
    Kent R.

    So glad my wife snagged me from the house to go get lunch today at Mad Mack's!!! Been craving a solid, homemade kinda burger and they sure as heck got it here!! Cute little mom and pops in the south/southeast area of town. Customer service is above and beyond. Super kind and polite. Very sweet people!! That alone would get me back. But then my massive, double patty, bacon and jalapeño burger arrived and I was blown away! Huge, hot, juicy, just delicious!! They said to me "once we get ya, we got ya." Well, they got me 100% going forward!! Everyone needs to swing by and give this place a shot. Oh yeah, they're pretty dang fast too.

    We always seek out an independent place and again, we were not disappointed. Fantastic food and most of all friendly folks!!

    Very good burgers!! I had the cowboy burger, it didn't have too much sauce on it so it wasn't dripping everywhere. We also had the bacon cheeseburger and a grilled clucker. Big portions and all very tasty!

    Hickory Burger

    After walking through some missions while in SA, we were looking for a place to eat- and previous yelp reviews did not steer us wrong. Right when we walked in we were greeted. I'm assuming the couple working are the owners and they were super sweet and friendly. We ordered two bacon blue burgers, two hickory burgers- one we added a fried egg to, a hot dog and a kids grilled cheese. The food came out super fast and was fresh. Definitely will add this place to our list to return when in SA.

    They have keto buns!!! But it's hit and miss, i've gone a handful of times where they didn't have…read morethem or times where the bun is extremely small. But they do lettuce wrapped, still not the same though. The service is always great since I have the extra modifications. The ambiance is nice, we are able to hear each other speak even though there are tv's playing. I'm a sucker for their bistro burger and the cucumber cup as a side.

    FIRST TIME VISIT!…read more Woohoo! Been looking for chili cheese fries and happened upon a review for this place boasting fries with a homemade chili so we HAD TO stop in tonight. THE LOCATION: on the very end of a string of businesses in a strip mall that I've never been in before, so that was cool. Lots of parking, that'll never be an issue. And right off the 410. THE MENU: Burgers, dogs, Mexi-style munchies and a variety of frozen dessert-type items like shakes, frozen fruit concoctions and Italian ice. THE STAFF: I wasn't overwhelmed with a warm welcome and smiles, at least from the guys. Lol! They should really work on that. There was a sweet gal who ran out our food orders and she was great. THE FOOD: I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich deluxe with tots and a sweet tea. The grilled chicken was juicy and cooked well and the bun was lovely, slightly sweet and toasted. Overall, the sandwich could've used more flavor, like a creamy bbq spread and cheddar instead of the "Swiss" cheese that tasted more like American cheese. But overall, 7/10. The tots were extra crispy and the guy who took my order didn't take heed to my request for ranch. I was too lazy to get up again so I settled for ketchup. The sweet tea was nicely sweet and fresh, I'll be sipping this in my dreams. The hubby ordered the bacon cheeseburger with chili cheese fries and an Oreo cookie shake. The burger looked good and he ate it quick, so there's that. This guy can EAT so it surprised us both when he slowed down fast after eating that burger. Lol! He kept saying how filling it was, but then he also killed a large shake before the food arrived, so there's that. He ate most of his chili cheese fries, leaving me a few bites to sample. Not bad. I order a Coco Haven frozen dessert to go and omg is this thing delightful! Vanilla ice cream and coconut Italian ice (?) with a blue snow cone-like syrup drizzled throughout. I loved the texture of what I believed to be Italian ice. Smooth and flaky, a perfect icy dessert. OVERALL: decent eatery, the hubby said we can go back (LOL!) Shockerrrrr! But I recommend the staff tries harder to make customers feel welcomed and comfortable. The next visit will be telling.

    Update to first review below, rating updated from a 3 to a 5 star (drinks & bartender would get 10+…read morestars if we could rate that high): Saturday night: Went back for after dinner drinks at the Downstairs (a "speakeasy" throwback, look up the history of the place to see why). Drinks were AMAZING! Bartender Rob made the best Negroni I've ever had. I asked him to use whatever gin he thought best--result was an artistic smooooooth full-bodied drink. Told him when I was done I'd lick the glass if it wasn't considered so uncouth for a 'mature' lady like myself to do so Hubby's Buffalo Trace bourbon old fashioned was also outstanding. Rob was the bartender last night who did such a great job, and his work was even better tonight. We highly recommend The EsquireTavern for excellent cocktails. We love the long wood bar and high copper ceiling upstairs, but love the intimate speakeasy atmosphere downstairs even more. We'll definitely be back every time we're in San Antonio! First review, Friday night: Drinks were great (Manhattan and Bourbon Old Fashioned). REAL drinks, no complaints at all about those. And the bartenders were very friendly and helpful. Those aspects of the Esquire get 5+ stars from us. But the appetizers were not good, close to inedible. It was about 8:30pm or so, so maybe they were getting ready to close out the kitchen but the chalupitas with chicken tasted like rubber, and no flavor at all. The seafood platter had something in it that was breading with shell inside, but no meat of any kind. We couldn't figure out what it was supposed to be. The shrimp was good and the fish was good but those other things... We'll always love the drinks, the long wooden bar, and the ambiance at the Esquire Tavern, but we'll eat somewhere else and come here for before or after dinner drinks. (See update above to this review for when we returned the next night for after dinner drinks.)

It tasted great and it made me excited to come back and try the other options they have! The curly fries were also seasoned well and very crisp. They might've been a bit understaffed because there was no one at the register when I walked in so I had a wait a minute or two before receiving service. But when she took my order and gave us our food she was super nice. The food also didn't take long to come out either. I very much enjoyed the outdoor area I sat at with my friends. The cars driving by were a bit loud but my friends and I still enjoyed our time and the flowers around the area were very pretty. Highly recommend and I need to come back here!!

    This is an official Local Favorite of mine! Dogfather is in a really low key location, and when you…read morewalk in the vibe is completely chill. My partner and I went on a Sunday morning just after 11am and there were already people coming in to eat. It's popular for a reason! I've eaten here a few times and had a very consistently good time, but this review will be about my most recent visit. We visited on a rainy day, but luckily we were able to snag one of the inside tables, we ordered at the counter and our orders arrived very quickly. I got the Ratchet dog which is a beef dog with queso, hot Cheetos and fried jalapeños. Dogfather uses quality dogs and buns for all of their gourmet dogs. I found the Ratchet to be meaty, salty with just right amount of spice from the jalapeños. My partner got the Pop it like it's hot, but removed the jalapeños. This was good but lacking a bit of flavor, however she and I both agreed that was on her for taking the jalapeños off the dog. Both dogs were extremely tasty, and we devoured both. I also got an order of curly fries loaded with their chili and cheese. For me, these did not have to go as HARD as they did. The chili they are using at Dogfather is seriously good, with a slight tang and a good amount of spice. It thrills but does not take away from your meal with too much heat. Very tasty. My only feedback is that Dogfather needs a larger space! There's a good size outside seating area, but for times like today when it's raining people need some coverage. They're doing it right and the crowds want to come! As I have stated this is a local favorite. If you live nearby, make it a regular spot. If you live in San Antonio, do yourself a favor and make a trip over at least sometimes. If you like hot dogs you won't go wrong.

He even showed us around and introduced us to his family and staff, which made us feel right at home. The food came out quickly, and the burger was fantastic--but the true STAR OF THE SHOW was the bread. Think Hawaiian rolls, but softer, fluffier, and sized for a burger. These burgers were no joke: meat, cheese, grilled onions, and a secret sauce--and honestly, they didn't need anything else. The grilled onions and sauce were the perfect compliment, and you could taste every flavor in each bite. The drinks came in cans. I didn't notice a fountain setup, so that might be why. It would've been nice to have a cup with ice, but I didn't ask, so maybe that's an option. Overall, this place is definitely worth a try--and we will be back!
