    We had a great meal at this cute little burger shop out in Katy. We had went at an off hour so there were not many customers at the time so we got to chat with Rocio. It sounded like she and her mom own the restaurant. It has been open for 3 years. The menu is quite impressive and we can't wait to come by and try more thing's. I was pleasantly surprised with this Katy find. Handmade patties....nothing better.

    Honest reviews as ALWAYS ! very nice inside , love the old school R&B , the vibe and the graffiti! I'm from Chi town so I felt at home The lady at the front was so sweet and very helpful . She was very attentive . The district burger was 9/10 !! Very juicy and big . The quesadilla was good as well fries were cool ! My ONLY complaint is prices. If you're gonna be old school keep prices affordable. Paying 44 dollars for 3 burger no fries , a kids meal and a shake that was good but it was the best milkshake for 5.99 . Kids don't care so he ate it.. But overall go visit its worth it just wish companies understand that fries should be included with all burgers . Paying $20 for burger and a fries is wild . It was empty in a Friday so may if they do special or maybe adjust prices more will be able to afford the Goodness I don't have a lot of $$ so this was a unexpected amount of money for food with no fries

    Old school diner vibes for sure. Very clean. Quick and awesome service. Burgers were GREAT!! Juicy, seasoned well. Buns toasted perfectly. All around great burgers. Will be coming back.

    You get the idea...

    The first time I reviewed this restaurant, I was focused on pupusa but subsequently have been back for the hamburgers, which are absolutely wonderful. As well the service is incredibly efficient, friendly quick pleasant informative in summary. It's a wonderful dining experience. It looks a bit akin to a cafeteria style restaurant in terms of ambience, but that really does not detract from how good the food is. Frankly, the hamburgers are absolutely incredible and I would encourage everyone who is reading this to at least give them a try. I've had several different kinds of hamburgers with all sorts of accoutrements, and every one of them has been just wonderful. I would highly highly recommend this restaurant

    This place is really unique; I haven't had quite an experience like this. I don't have a photo of the interior; however, there is a stark disconnect between the seating in the restaurant and the "bar" area. I am sure there is a story behind how all this happened, and I can tell the restaurant is doing their best, but it all results in an identity crisis. Are you a restaurant that serves food in plastic trays lined with paper, or are you a restaurant with wagyu beef and truffle burgers? I'm sure there's a way to meld the two, but this place doesn't quite pull it off. Very weird ambience. That being said, I don't care much about the ambience, or the service - which was awesome. There was one guy working the whole floor and he was extremely friendly and helpful. Quick, too. The food mirrors the ambience - great and well executed in some areas, fast food drivel in others. Let's start with the burgers - I got the mushroom Swiss, and my love got a double. We were asked how we wanted our patties cooked. Didn't matter, it all came out well done. DESPITE THAT, the burgers were well seasoned, juicy, hot, and the buns are toasted and taste homemade. These burgers WILL give you pause at the first bite. Nicely done. The fries are clearly bought in, and are nothing special. I got mine with brisket on top and while it was a nice addition, wasn't very good brisket or very bad brisket, just okay. The bbq sauce seems bought in and generic also, but it was all very hot and fresh, which I appreciate. I got one al pastor taco. The most flavorful aspect of it was the corn tortilla - the meat was dry, unfortunately, and I wouldn't order it again. I am so glad this place resonates with so many people, but $60 for two people for this - I find the tuition is quite high for what you get at Old School Burger.

    Our waitress was really great. Friendly and attentive. The inside was very clean and nice. I got a burger with blue cheese and other stuff on it (forgot the name) it was okay. The meat didn't really have any flavor tasted a little burnt. The burger over all lacked flavor. The buns where good though, toasted but soft 6/10 Torta was good. Didn't fall apart and had good flavor. Could have used a little more beans 9/10 French fries 10/10 Pupusa: bean, cheese 10/10

    The service was awesome. The food is hot and fresh. We especially like the barbecue burger.

    Had a chance to visit this restaurant again last night. Very satisfied with the personal attention to detail. Burgers always come out made to order with minimal wait time. Not every restaurant can serve you your burger and fries with the consistent cook on both. Hot and fresh, go out and support this family owned business. I promise you you will love it.

    Amazing!! Always hands down amazing! Delicious food no doubt, we love the delicious flavor, serving size, service and the consistency of their product. Never disappoints!! On our recent visit we had pupusas, brisket fries, fire and cheese burger and the mushroom and Swiss cheese burger!!! Sooo good!! Music was on point we had so much fun listening to 60,70,80s greatest hits. Oh and to top it off, we had a savory churro shake and vanilla shake!!! Phenomenal! This is a great burger place!! We highly recommend this place!!

    Awesome gooey jalapeño queso burger and crispy sweet potato fries. Excellent staff, and big portions. Thanks Santiago!

    Mushrooms, Swiss burger sans the swiss
    Susan H.

    Lady that helped us was very sweet. We went at lunch time and she said that they were slower than usual. Our party of three ordered chips & queso, the deluxe burger, bacon avocado burger, mushroom & Swiss burger, fries & onion rings. The queso was nothing to write home about. The burgers were delicious, huge & juicy. French fries & onion rings were good as well. Most definitely will be back for more.

While visiting family in Houston we were excited to come across a "real" Mexican (as opposed to Tex-Mex...iykyk) taco shop. As soon as you walk in and see the Tijuana and Baja Mexico signs and decor you know you're in the right place. There's an open kitchen, allowing you to watch your carne being grilled on the open-flame grill. That charged meat smell is heavenly! Their guac is chunky and simple (nothing too fancy), hot sauces are tasty (and they have a kick!), tortillas are thin but strong -- holding the goods in just right. It's also nice that they have complimentary tasty, crispy pork rinds -- as opposed to the standard chips & salsa. Portions are ample! They definitely don't skimp on portions -- tons of meat and guac in their tacos and huge, meaty burritos! Prices are fair, especially for what you get! Their dining room is a tad small, but it's very clean and the a/c is good...there's also a nice patio outside. Service was swift and friendly. Food was good. A/C was poppin'. Parking was plentiful.

The price to food ratio is beyond reasonable, especially when put up against fast food restaurants (or just many restaurants for that matter) and can serve as a second or even third meal (assuming you don't get lost in the flavor) The staff have always been nice, so no complaints there The only complaint is that it can take a while for your order to be made, especially at peak times. Dining in is hard due to the lack of available seating (all first come, first serve), parking is very limited and you may need to park on the other side of the shopping complex. Last I ordered, there doesn't seem to be a clear way to order ahead Regardless, we still come here often and always have enjoyed the food

We're…read morefrom San Diego, so we know good carne asada and Tacos Frontera is where it's at in Houston! Definitely a taste of home outside of San Diego and Tijuana. Finding authentic TJ flavor in Texas (not Tex-Mex) was a welcome surprise! Our carne asada was grilled al carbón and you could taste the char! Juicy carne full of flavor, thin but strong and tasty tortillas (they really held everything together well), perfect chunky guac (not too fancy or full of fillers--IYKYK), and a variety of delicious salsas and hot sauces! An added bonus was the complimentary chicharrones! I'll take those over tortilla chips any day! The dining room isn't very big, but it's clean and has good a/c....there's an outdoor patio as well. Service was fast and friendly. Tacos and burritos were hefty and full of flavor. Ample parking.

Limited indoor seating, and since it gets busy we usually order to go. When I did dine in it was nice experience, feels authentic like eating a local spot in Mexico. You have the Mexican cokes available, the style of tacos has a big scoop of guac which makes them a bit unique compared to other spots that charge extra for guac. Their tacos are big too! Not the mini small taco tortillas you get in a food truck. These are big tacos so getting 2 is enough for me. I've tried their Asado tacos and their quesadillas and their quesabirrias all 10/10.

Unfortunately, my experience yesterday was so unacceptable that I will never return. When placing my order, the employee taking my order appeared intoxicated. His eyes were drooping and closing, he repeatedly paused, mumbled, and seemed to struggle entering my order. Although this was concerning, I chose to overlook it and waited patiently. After about 10 minutes, I simply returned to ask whether my order had been placed and if it was ready. I was not upset, in a hurry, or complaining. I only wanted confirmation that my order existed because the employee kept responding, "No orders, no orders," despite me showing him my receipt. Due to an apparent language barrier, I called my Hispanic husband and handed the employee my phone so he could ask the same simple question in Spanish. Instead of helping, the employee began yelling at my husband. Another employee joined in, and both started yelling while walking away with my phone. When the phone was returned, I still had no idea what had happened or whether my order was being prepared. The situation escalated for no reason. The employees began yelling at me, aggressively slammed the service windows shut, ignored me, and treated me as if I had done something wrong. I remained calm throughout the entire interaction and repeatedly stated that there was no problem--I simply wanted to know if my order had been placed. Eventually, the food was thrown together carelessly, shoved into a bag, and handed to me with obvious hostility. The food quality was terrible, and the customer service was even worse. What disappointed me most was that this entire situation was completely unnecessary. I was respectful, patient, and simply asking a basic question. The combination of an employee who appeared intoxicated, the aggressive and unprofessional behavior from both employees, and the poor quality of the food made this one of the worst customer service experiences I have had. I cannot recommend this location and will not be returning.

I've gotten the food here a few times over the last few years but the service my wife received today was ridiculous and unprofessional. Antonio was present and can vouch for what happened. My wife approached, looked at the menu, and called for my order. At that time the man in the truck pulled the tip jar in behind the window and then moved away from the window when my wife tried to order. Another person (antonio) had to take my wife's order. Bad enough. After she ordered and went to wait in the car a hispanic young man arrived, the same guy put the tip jar back out and took his order with no issue. We won't be back. We go out of our way to support food trucks and the birria ramen is good enough. The guys in the truck are even fighting, slamming items, and throwing things at each other in front of customers. This is at 3:20 PM on June 16th. One of the guys is/was bleeding and this is just a bad day all around. The food is good, the meat is always savory and juicy. Really depends on who you get cooking. Either way I don't appreciate how my wife was treated and I want to believe this was just a bad day. Things to consider. Good atmosphere and solid food truck experience.
