Porkchop Sandwich Combo
Rodolfo O.

This place is a great gem in an area scarce of good restaurants. Great burgers indeed. Fries are so good. They were so fresh and hot I had to wait just a bit to eat them. Service is a bit slow around linch time so get the order earlier. The place is small but very neat. This place could use a bigger sign.

Chili dog with no chili

I went yesterday evening and it was a few people dining in and the phone was ringing nonstop. I was sketchy bc the way it looked but I've learned the best food comes from holes in the wall. The young guy with the red hair took my order, he had a great personality and we talked crazy to each briefly...I ordered a cheeseburger and a chili dog. CHEESEBURGER was delicious as hell!!! I mean seasoned in every bite very good the CHILI DOG idk about that it wasn't nasty but it wasn't no chili in sight I even looked to see if it was in the damn bag NOPE so I probably will skip that but I will return for another burger bc it was FYE and while I was waiting on my food the young man who took my order was eating and offered me some of his fries...I definitely took them he's funny... A family run establishment and I love it!!! So get there and get a burger!!!

I ordered a cheese burger and fries with a slush. It was ok. I always like to support black businesses so I'll try something else the next time I go.

Super beefy nacho
Third Street E.

The food wasn't bad. Just not as good as I hoped. The chips in the nachos were stale as can be. Fresh chips and they could have got an extra star. The bacon cheeseburger was heavier than I expected. I think it had bacon. It was supposed to have bacon. I'll look later. The prices on the menu need updating. Other than that in sure I'll be a customer again eventually. On the hint for the best abd cheapest mom and pop burger spot. This place is worth trying.

Welcome

Great place to eat in the neighborhood and the prices are good reasonable it's not very big for large parties of people but they have solid menu so there something there for everyone

Cheeseburger
Ivan Z.

If you're looking for a delicious burger in this area, come here. Forget the fast food places. I ordered a cheeseburger and it was everything I wanted. Fresh beef, no premade frozen patties here.The staff was so friendly. I love supporting locally owned businesses. If I'm ever in this area i will definitely come back and try some more things from the menu.

This is exactly what you want from a little local burger joint. Great food served in an unpretentious setting. Fantastic burger!

A great burger spot coming from someone who doesn't eat lots of burgers so take that how you'd like…read more When you walk in you take a clipboard to customize your selection (beef burger, turkey burger, fish, etc.) and then take that to the register to pay. I had opted for a beef burger with a side of chili cheese tater tots to share. The burger is quite large and filled generously with whatever add-ins you check off so it was very filling for me. I went with two 2oz patties, but considering the size, I'd opt for a single 2 oz patty if I go back. For my burger I also added scallion aioli which didn't have a strong green onion flavor but was still nice and added creaminess to the burger overall. The tater tots were super crispy, and the chili cheese topping was nice. I had gone shortly after they opened and it wasn't super busy but it started to quickly fill up around 11:30-12. Decent amount of tables and good parking situation outside

I was extremely excited to give this place a shot and, after failing to try it about a month ago…read moredue to them being out of falafel patties, I finally got to try it this past weekend and honestly I was very much underwhelmed (I even called before going to make sure they hadn't run out of falafel patties this time). To start off with a positive, I thought the falafel patty had a really great taste and was absolutely the highlight of the burger. But outside of that the burger and the toppings I ordered just didn't work as well as I would've liked. I ordered my burger with mushrooms and sauteed onions, both toppings I know I absolutely love from making burgers at home and from other spots, but neither added much. At first I was worried that the falafel was overpowering them both but upon eating them by themselves they just lacked taste. We also got the scallion aioli on the burger and I never got a hint of it at any point. All in all, the burger was very much mediocre outside of the patty. We also got fries with the burger and while they absolutely had some potential they were extremely over seasoned. Any appreciation for the seasonings in a vacuum was immediately overshadowed by how salty they were. We also ordered the Sambal Mayo as a dipping sauce and while it did help subdue the insane salt level and overall tasted quite good, upon writing this review I found out by looking at their online menu that it contained some amount of shrimp. This information is nowhere to be seen on the ordering slip and wasn't mentioned when I handed it over to the person working at the cash register. And while I definitely accept some level of responsibility for not doing my due diligence and asking or letting them know of my dietary restrictions, it's still an extremely frustrating thing to have happen as both a vegetarian and someone with a mild shellfish allergy. If for whatever reason the online menu is out of date or I missed an obvious indication of it containing shrimp somewhere I am more than happy to edit my review.

Classic case of "I drive by this place all the time." Today I decided to finally try it on a whim…read moreand could not be happier with my decision. First, the parking lot entrance is blink and you'll miss it, tucked narrowly between the carwash and the cafe on Washington, but parking is surprisingly ample. The husband and wife owners are lovely people. The inside is very comfortable with a very old world cafe ambiance. The burger and fries are clearly made to order and incredibly well made. The burger was nicely seasoned and perfectly cooked, the vegetables were fresh and crisp, the burger sauce was really nice without being cloying or overpowering, and the bun was nice and soft. The fries were those nice, thick, crispy on the outside soft on the inside diner style seasoned fries. The pastry offerings, which I was told the wife bakes herself, look excellent as well, as do all of the coffee drinks. I'm very excited to come back and try their cafe offerings.

The burger itself looked like a burger you'd find at many places, but the flavor was "elevated." The burger was made to order and did take a few minutes to come out, but was worth the wait! There is plenty to do here. You can enjoy a cold one , you can lounge around in comfortable chairs, or you can play a game -- your choice. If you're in the Washington / Heights / downtown area, this place is worth a visit. (They also have parking.)

Champ Burger is an EaDo staple that I finally had the opportunity to check out for lunch. Coming on…read morea Mon at 1230pm, this place was packed! Love seeing the lunch rush though because you know it's gonna be good. Ambiance wise, this place is very chill. No indoor area, just order at the counter, get 1 of their outdoor patio tables or take it to go. There was a line to order, but service was very fast. Burger wise, this place is just a well executed classic burger. Big, juicy, fresh toppings, honestly nothing to complain about. The onion rings were some of the best that I've had recently, and I ordered their "Texas size steak sandwich" to go as well for dinner, very filling. I'm so glad I finally took the time to try out this EaDo gem. I understand why they've been a Houston burger staple for so long now. I'll definitely be adding this place to the list in my burger rotation, enjoy!

After trying a number of different burger spots it definitely wanted to come here again and make sure that it was living up to my previous experience. Just happened to get there at the right time there was nobody waiting and as soon as I placed my order and grabbed a seat, I turned around, and there was a line of approximately 20 people waiting to order. The seating is all alfresco. I ordered a steak sandwich with fries and a drink. The fried steak was tender and moist and the fries were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The service was friendly and helpful, answered all questions.
