    CHEESE FRIES SURPRISE
    Robert A.

    The location never disappoints when looking for a filling burger. Its heavy if you pair with fries but worth the calories. Service is always on point even with new staff and fits into the EaDo vibe. Not far from the baseball stadium with a short walk.

    Apparently Rodeo Goat is a Texas chain but as chains go, this is a good one. Rodeo Goat is a burger joint but on steroids, and amphetamines. The burgers and fries were phenomenal, and the toppings range from typical to insane. We had a table of 7 guys who had spent the day drinking beer and attending an Astros game, so I was slightly buzzed upon arrival. So of course we started with more beer. They had probably 15-20 brews on tap and most of them were local. Then we pretty much ordered all their fries. There were regular fries, sweet potato fries, chili cheese fries, cheese fries with jalapenos and bacon....at this point I sound like Bubba Gump. For a burger I got a Whiskey Burger. It had a blackberry jam, candied bacon, cheddar and a bourbon mustard. Delicious! All great beer drinking food. So why only 4 stars instead of 5? Well, I may have been drunk and just thought everything was great.

    We wanted some good burgers and found great reviews here. The place seems packed all the time especially during the weekend. Plenty places to sit indoor and out. We ordered Ranch House Burger, Marvin Zinder burger, The Empire Burger and Bodacious in a bowl. As well as two side orders of fries. Healthy portions to fill hungry bellies. Burgers were cooked to liking. Mine was juicy and flavorful. Service was great our server was friendly and made sure we were taken care of. Casual place to talk, laugh and even scream when a game is on

    There is a paid parking lot across the street, or you can try to find free street parking. Side note, do not leave any valuables in your car as my friend's car was broken into. When you walk into the establishment, no one will seat you, so you'll need to find a table yourself and a waiter will come by shortly after. Service was pretty good, and everything I ordered was absolutely delicious. I literally have nothing bad to say and would highly recommend giving this place a try. 1. Inspector Clouseau Burger: If you're a fan of smash patties, this is the one. The meat was incredibly tender, and the onions added so much flavor. The dipping broth on the side oddly tasted like a rich and delicious beef soup, which made it even better. 2. Fries: So crispy, flavorful, and the perfect portion size for two people to share. 3. Churro Goat Balls: The name is pretty self explanatory. They were super delicious and basically like warm, fluffy bread balls. I'm so happy I got to eat here for dinner and can't wait to come back!

    Rattlesnake (sangria margarita) is absolutely amazing, one of my favorite cocktails ever and decently strong Nanny Goat was one of the best burgers I've ever had. Cheese fries surprise also amazing and insanely huge portion Lots of street parking and paid parking lots nearby. Fast and friendly service, would definitely come back. Great place for both lunch and dinner/chill night with friends

    When planning out me and my friend's itinerary, we were trying to find a food spot that would be close to Truck Yard and I just happened to come across Rodeo Goat on Maps, and it didn't disappoint! Their burger menu was great, and had many different loaded burger options, which I loved! I ended up getting the Sugar Burger which came with the patty, candied bacon, grilled peaches, caramelized onion, and jalapeño jam. The peach was a great addition and added a faint sweet touch to it. The burger also came with a huge side of fries! If you're a burger fan, I would definitely recommend this spot, because there's burger options that would satisfy anyone! It is also right next to Truck Yard, so perfect dinner spot and then you can hop next door for drinks! I also thought service overall was great, and the ambiance was very casual and relaxed.

    Super good burger and ambiance. Food came out immediately, so fast service. Solid rodeo theme commemorating Houston Rodeo performances. Not a ton of beers in the draft selection, but they do have some dark ones--if you like (512)'s Pecan Porter! Smaller burger, more stuff going on flavor wise. Good things. Unexpected things... The blue cheese burger ("luv ya blue")had a strong clove and other spices in a coleslaw that was very delicate and delicious, in a brioche bun, with a really juicy beef patty. The clove was a curveball, and it was a really memorable, perhaps even bright tasting burger.

    CHEESE FRIES NO SURPRISE

    $4 Moontangs ALL DAY when the Astros are playing (normally $9). Great drink that is not overly sweet. Super smooth consistency. 1/2 price fries ALL DAY every Wednesday. They have 1/2 or full orders of fries btw. The food and service were both phenomenal. Fries are fully loaded and covered is gooey cheese. Absolute guilty pleasure! The bun holds up to the burger and all its toppings. Everything tastes fresh and homemade. My only complaint is they forgot the jalapeños on my fries and my salad was also missing the hard boiled eggs.

    During a conference my coworkers and I walked here. When we walked up we were a bit confused as to where to go because the hostess station is in the far back of the restaurant. We had a great time here as the weather was perfect to sit outside. Our waiter was great even though he disappeared after we got our food. I loved the different options of burgers and I chose the one with the blueberry compote. The bun was toasted and soft and meat was cooked to perfection. The fries came hot and crispy in some places. If I was back downtown I would come back hands down.

    The burgers are on the smaller side here but I love the selection! It was my first time here but the friends I came with all generally agreed that the burgers were smaller than they remembered (not sure if there's been a downsizing over time or if they had larger portions from other locations). I went for The Luv Ya Blue, which had great flavor and texture from the bleu cheese slaw. The waiter recommended it cooked Medium Well. I also ordered the Salted Caramel Pretzel milkshake and saw stars with how good it was- I would come back for the milkshakes alone. The pairing was also suprisingly good. There's decent street parking and a paid lot across from the restaurant. Sit outside during the cooler nights, the patio is spacious and they have a few games like Ring Swing and Connect Four. I do wish the portion sizes were a little bigger but this is a great place for a fun date night or a casual outing with friends. I'm already looking forward to my next visit! - Ambiance: 5/5 - Food: 4/5 - Service: 5/5

    Super laid back place with friendly staff. There was plenty of seating when I went. Really enjoyed the Sugar Burger that I got, with the grilled peaches and bacon inside. It came with a good amount of fries, which I substituted in sweet potato fries. Great spot, would definitely come back again if I'm in the area!

    NEW FAVORITE BURGER PLACE!!!!! First time visiting and we were blown away. Loved that it was inside & outside. There were fun games for everyone to play with such as Hook & Ring and giant Connect 4. DOG FRIENDLY!!!! Our server Morgan was awesome and gave great recommendations. We got the Bodacious burger, Billy F Gibbons burger, & Homemade Goat Chips. Morgan gave us a sample of the goat chips before we decided to order them. Highly recommend this place!!

    Service was amazing. We sat at the bar, the employee of the month is exactly that and for a reason. Both ladies behind bar were working so hard and doing it well. Our bartender was amazing and attentive. We got the loaded fries with brisket chili, I'm not sure we would get these again. We expected a BED of chili to where we could scoop it up and eat it, I ordered this as my meal so I was a little sad when there was not enough chili to actually eat, it's a thin layer of chili, a ton of fries (which were so good) and then all the fixins. I think it's good it tasted great, it just wasn't exactly what we expected on the chili side of things. My husband got the Hot Bastard burger and loved it. It looked gooooood too! I ended up getting a mini slider for some protein and that burger was . Come for the burgers & maybe stay for the fries too We watched sports, watched the people outside too haha. Outdoor seating and games available. Cute spot. Will be back!

    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

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.
