    Chili Queso Dog
    Ebony S.

    A fairly new establishment with an amazing outdoor patio. Great for football season or watching sports with family and friends. The lady at the register was very nice, patient, and helped us with our order as first-timers. We ordered a queso hotdog and substituted the raw onions for grilled ones, which was surprisingly no extra charge. Fries are not included with the hotdog, so we ordered those separately, and the order is enough for two or as a shareable side. The frozen margaritas are 7/10, mighty flavor, small kick!

    My husband and I we are suckers for some good burgers and the burger joint just recently opened up near us and we were so thrilled! Absolute enjoyed both the burgers and we cannot wait to go back! The Fire burger lives up to its name, it's spicy and juicy, the pattie is cooked to perfection. The Rodeo burger is a seasonal item, it's your classic bacon, bbq sauce, cheddar cheese with caramelised onions combo and it did not disappoint!! We also enjoyed the Mac&Cheese and the bacon parm fries was chef kiss! Next time we go I definitely want to try their shakes!! Definitely recommend this place and best part they have various locations all throughout Houston!

    I love Burger Joint, and I'm so happy they finally opened a location closer to me. I had been craving a burger for about a month, so it was the perfect treat after Lent. I ordered my usual Classic with fries, and as always, it was absolutely delicious. My sister and dad tried the Smoke Stack burger for their first visit, and they were really impressed with the flavor. Overall, we had a great lunch and are so excited to have this spot nearby now

    Haven't been to burger joint in so long. This was their opportunity to shine at a new location on Gessner. Sadly they did not shine. The experience stunk. Ordered 2 burgers well done, mac and cheese, chili queso fries. Cashier messed up. Charged regular fries. Had to go back and get the order rang correctly. Burgers were not well done and had pink. Asked for tomato and pickles to be added to the fire burger. .25 cents for tomato and .75 cents for pickles is highway robbery. One burger had hell of lettuce. How about you put the right amount of lettuce and give me a damn pickle? Burgers packed in small 5x5 white box. Can't get them out without getting your hands covered in sauce. Mac and cheese ICE COLD. No flavor other than sliced processed American cheese. Chili queso fries packed deconstructed. I appreciate the fact if you all started with giving me hot fresh fries BUT that wasn't the case. Cold fries, cold chili, cold queso. Had to heat everything up in the micro. I do my best to shop local and give business to the community rather than going to chains BUT five guys is better and you can get 5 TIMES the pickles for free!!! AND A WELL DONE BURGER.

    Came in today to place a to-go order and was shocked to find my "medium" classic burger served like this. The center was extremely undercooked and appeared raw in multiple areas. I've eaten here several times before and have never had this issue, which made it even more disappointing. Unfortunately, I had already eaten part of the burger before realizing how undercooked it was. This was not what I would expect from a restaurant serving burgers, and it left me both disgusted and concerned about food safety.

    I've been going to The Burger Joint Heights for a long time and love their burgers. I wanted to check out the new Memorial location because it's close to my house. I was underwhelmed. The burger was nothing like the ones at the other location. Small, thin, dry, and undercooked. Toppings were scarce. The burger in the photo was "medium well". The fries were good but definitely the bottom of the bag because they were all very small pieces. Parking is difficult with a very small lot behind the restaurant. Service was acceptable. Seating was good with a mix of high top tables with stools and regular tables and chairs. Prices were high in my opinion. With other more reliable burger places around, I doubt I'll be back.

    Rodeo Burger
    Chris F.

    This was my first time going to this specific Burger Joint (duh it opened within the past couple of weeks) and overall the experience was pretty much identical compared to the other locations in Houston. I ordered the Rodeo Burger substituted with a veggie pattie and the bacon on the side (I'm vegetarian but was with my girlfriend) and a side of fries and queso. While I did enjoy my burger overall, Ive always had issues with both the structural integrity and the taste of the veggie pattie. The pattie ends up stretching and breaking apart really easily, which honestly would be fine if it tasted good. My burger also ended up having bacon on it, because it was hidden underneath the cheese I almost didn't catch it. I'm sure they would've offered to remake it if I asked, but I ended up just picking it out. The fries were really crispy which I always enjoy, but there were some that tasted somewhat stale. Not sure what happened because out of the entire tray it was only around 5 of them but I thought I should mention it anyways. Service was friendly and expeditious as always, and the place was clean as a button, so no issues on that front. In terms of atmosphere, this might be a bit nitpicky, but with it being outside and so close to a feeder road the sound of traffic was pretty jarring for a laid back outdoor venue. Full disclosure I did go during rush hour so that definitely played a factor in it all, but I've gone during rush hour at their other locations before and it hasn't been an issue because they're located along less busy roads.

    Salted fries, should be No salt
    Stephanie B.

    Burger was just like made from my own grill. Juicy and medium cooked! Very good! Dont like they charges to add lettuce and tomatos But kids meal was big! Ordered regular fries with No salt and came With salt. ‍ Not much, but still don't pay attention to that detail. Regular fries are hand cut , love that...sweet potato fries are ok. Love all the TVs on the patio was a perfect place to sit today. Was out of Coke Zero. :( Manager came around and apologized for the soda and fries and offered to bring more.

    Classic Smash Burger

    The queso fries was delicious. The classic smash burger was good too. So glad this location finally open. Dennioson provided great service. Raul who took our order was great too

    Classic Hand Cut Fries
    Cassie C.

    Loved this place! Such a fun atmosphere. Outdoor seating with lots of TVs, they have an in between seating which is technically inside and covered but you're close to outside and then they have a fully inside seating with a full bar. The burger was really good, my husband got the kimchi burger and really liked it. Fries are classic, no special seasoning but still good. The chocolate shake was good, not overly sweet or overly chocolatey. The only thing I was disappointed in was the ranch :( I love a good restaurant ranch with my burger and fries but this wasn't it. We will definitely be back to try more things!! The parking is slightly limited since the taco stand is opening next door soon, it is kind of hard to get to because of the location. The service was great, very friendly you order at the front and they bring it to you.

    Chicken sandwich, added American cheese- sandwich is BIG

    This was my first time visiting the Burger Joint on Gessner. I placed my order for pick up curbside. I received a text after I arrived and checked in stating they were working on my order and then I received a notification when my order was ready, I waiting for someone to walk my order out but no one came outside so I sent a text that I was curbside, still no one came. So, I walked inside to check on my order, but there was one person at the counter server those walking in I waited a minute to try and ask her about my order but did not get her attention. I must say that the inside is spacious and they also have a patio. I then saw a sign on the other side of the room that said "pick up orders" so I walked over to see if my order was there. It was two bags there and one was my order so I just took my order and left. No one was there to assist me so really anyone could've picked up my order. I got home and I have to admit the food was great, fries a little cold and the bacon sauce came out the side. But, I requested no tomatoes on my chicken sandwich and what did it have... tomatoes! This was a definite minus for me as I'm allergic to tomatoes and if I had not checked, I could have had an allergic reaction so this is why I'm giving three stars.

One thing that really stood out, and I haven't seen many restaurants do this -- is that they offer you a small sample of the food before you order. That little touch made a huge difference! It helped me decide on the right heat level for my chicken and narrow down which sides I wanted. Such a simple gesture, but so thoughtful. I ordered the H-Town wings with the hot honey sauce and a side of their homemade ranch -- and WOW. The wings were incredible, and that ranch? Delicious doesn't even cover it. I also ordered the leg and thigh Korean style, and while the flavor was amazing, it was a bit too saucy for my taste. I hate sending food back, but I knew I wasn't going to eat it -- so I did. And let me tell you, they handled it with such grace and kindness. No attitude, no awkwardness -- just genuine, outstanding customer service. That right there says everything about the kind of establishment Tumble 22 is. I couldn't even finish everything (portions are generous!), but the leftovers reheated perfectly in the air fryer the next day. I will absolutely be back -- especially for those H-Town wings. Go try them. You won't regret it!

If you don't have very many locations aren't exactly established yet in the city you're trying to plant in, and a patron comes in and says it's their first time, some recommendations and signature dish items would be nice to hear. There were a lot of staff on this Sunday afternoon, but didn't really see there was much effort into the overall experience. The food station was dirty and messy, there were gnats flying around our food where we were sitting, and when we got our zeppelins, it was drenched or drowning in the dressing and th overall sandwich was overly salty because of it. I ordered the Mediterranean Cobb and held off on the blue cheese and subbed feta. The grilled chicken literally was so chewy and tasted like rubber I had to spit it out and then pick the rest of the chicken out, this place is NOT cheap. Quite pricey for a large sub stuffed with a salad. If you're paying $15 for a sandwich, you expect to get quality ingredients. The chicken was not edible. Staff just stood around and would chit chat, not really attentive or maintaining the restaurant very well. I'm willing to give it another shot maybe and try their salad...but I'd heed on the dressing and ask for it on the side.
