Burgers are superior quality and taste. These are specialty burgers. We've been coming here for four years. It's been #2 on our list of the best burgers in S W Houston for some time. Hidden at the very end of a strip center behind Sub Zero / Wolff Appliance Showroom. Today I had the Italian Burger. Exquisite flavor. Scored Appearance 5 of 5; Taste 4.75 of 5, Quality, 5 of 5, and Value 4.75 of 5 = 19.5 / 4 = 4.875. read more

This was a complete disappointment. I've had a gift card for this place in my wallet for quite some time just waiting for an opportune time to use it. Knowing that it's older, I scanned the code on it and checked to see if it was still valid. The card said it still was. So I navigate over and arrive to see a sign on the door that says 2025 complimentary cards are no good. My card wasn't strictly a complimentary card instead it was a $20 gift certificate, in fact I'd still have to pay some money after using the gift certificate to get a burger and fries as a combo cost about $25. I walk up and ask about the card, and I'm told that it's no good. To add a bit of insult to injury, I was asked if I still wanted to order ‍ read more

Ordered Taxas burger with sweet potatoe fries and pineapple shake. The burger cooked to order. I like a non smashed burger. When you bite into it you get a piece of meat that you can chew. I enjoyed it immensely. Service was prompt and efficient. read more

The Burger Palace - I had the Vietnamese burger. - Burgers Near Me - Houston, Texas

A solid three stars. Although the place was recently retouched, the vibe is outdated and not very appealing. The bar is too high for the chairs, and sitting at the bar you're about three feet away from a huge TV. Not sure who would find that comfortable. There is also a strong smell of sewage from the restroom. I had the classic American burger and fries. The meal comes with a soft drink. I don't think that's necessary, it's giving fast food. But the food itself is actually tasty. The burger was well done but still juicy, the fries were thin and crispy. I'd recommend this for take out probably, but not necessarily for a sit down meal because of the smell. The service is a refectory friendly and quick, no complaints. read more

Hidden in the corner of a strip mall, Burger Palace both fascinates me and perplexes me for being a place that one would never expect in the Galleria. If one wasn't looking, it's a little too easy to miss. It's not exactly run down, but it's certainly far from being well maintained. The vibes are on par was something I'd see on on Kitchen Nightmares, and it got to a point where I genuinely considered that I was being pranked or trolled on a TV show. When I first arrived, it was empty. It was so quiet that I actually thought the place was closed but one of the owners (?) came out slowly and was at the counter. While I perused the menu, I couldn't help but notice the interior is falling apart. There were holes in the ceiling, water dripping in different parts of the restaurant (#1), drooping light fixtures, holes in the ceilings, and lights that were obviously out. The tables were a bit grimy and it got to a point where I decided while looking at the menu that I was going to do takeout instead. The Man behind the counter seemed a tad off. He moved at a snail's pace and was grunting constantly. It reminded me of a movie character or something out of a cartoon because it felt so exaggerated yet. This only added to the vibe of the place, which was starting to feel incredibly random. I ordered a handful of things: their Swiss bacon bleu burger, the ultimate grilled cheese, a trio of their fries (truffle, rosemary, and sweet potato), chicken taco, and pulled pork taco. An older Asian lady was preparing the food and by the time everything was ready, I was so starved that I had contemplated eating it on their outdoor patio. I eventually found an outdoor table nearby with my dining companions and we dug in. And to my surprise, the burger was tasty. The medium rare was on point and the bacon with bleu cheese was quite good. The same went for the fries, which were all crispy and well seasoned. My group found the tacos to be the least appealing, as the meats weren't up to par and generally left a lot to be desired. While it wasn't what I had expected on both ends of the spectrum (dingy decor, tasty food), this is still an experience that is as memorable as it gets. I wouldn't rule out a return in the near future just to see how thing are going and hopefully to be the recipient of some of their other burgers that I've yet to try. __________ (#1) Turns out the plants were collecting water. Wow. read more

Fresh, fast and friendly!! Met the new owner and manager and they are great! This is a quaint burger place. The Texas burger with fresh jalapeños was awesome. The Wagyu was excellent. The bun and all the fixings were fresh and just a clean burger that held together nicely with fresh flavors. I went for the cake, but the sides for burgers were quite a few options that sounded great. It is small and quiet, and the service and ingredients make it a go-to for me. See you next time!! read more

Service was horrible! We walked in and first 2 people, then an addition 5 other groups both for take out and order I . They ordered after us and we received our food 1 hour after we ordered. We were last ones to leave and were asked multiple Times if there was a problem. Yes, the problem was we waited for our food an hour and it was awful and wasn't even what I ordered. Worst experience ever in a new town on vacation! I would never go back read more

The Burger Palace is well worth your time to visit and enjoy a delicious burger and fries. I was very impressed with how amazing and delicious the food was. The fountain soda is also on point. The staff was very friendly and took my order right away. The food was seved quickly and is much more food than I expected. I had to grab a to go box since it was hard to finish all the food. Be prepared to take large bites the burger is that big. Also try to come early or later since lines can get crazy during normal lunch hours. The inside of the restaurant is very nice. It has a cozy feel with a wood finish on almost everything. Stop by today and try this palace for yourself. read more

The Burger Palace - Number 2 on Special Menu. Bacon Cheeseburger With Everything Including Carmelized Onions and Side of French Fries - Burgers Near Me - Houston, Texas

Where do I begin? Arrived around 11:45 and the closed sign was in the window, however I saw people moving around inside. Went in and they were in fact open. Had to go to the counter to place an order, that's fine. There were three people in my party. The waitress brought over items for two people. About 10 minutes later, she came to ask if an order had been placed for me. It had, and the food was paid for already. She asked what I ordered and if it had mushrooms on it. By this time, I couldn't remember the exact ingredients. She went on to say they had a large party yesterday so they were out of things, and that the placed open late this morning because she got there late. Finally, she said that they didn't have my burger on the receipt in the kitchen. About 10 minutes later, my food arrived but the burger was pink (I specifically asked for it to be well done). I waited for a bit, but the waitress never came to check on us. So, I took my burger to the counter and showed her the pink meat. Her response: it took you10 minutes to notice that? At this point, I was over it and asked for a refund. Hopefully it'll come...since she couldn't provide a receipt indicating the refund. read more

We went today for the first time and the experience was very underwhelming. While the burgers had a good flavor, there were lots of issues and errors. Ordered a Greek salad that was advertised as romaine, onion, feta, cucumber, tomatoes and olives. I got an arugula salad mixed with spinach and romaine, white onion, cucumber and tomatoes. No clue what the dressing was, not Greek. I questioned if the order was correct. They later brought feta on side but no Greek olives but the entire thing was off. The arugula itself was wilted and seemingly not good, had to be picked out. None of choices were on our plates/burgers (asked for added avocado, was initially missed.... Asked for Parmesan to be added to fries, not added- no clue if charged)....Meals took a long time to arrive, even though the business was slow. The staff was nice but there were just too many errors for a $25 burger. read more

I was desperately searching for some cow protein after being vegan all week. Yesterday was a hot day and being out in the sun at a festival all day caused me to crave for burgers. I pulled in at my usual burger place parking lot and started searching for something better. Looking at my bookmarks on Yelp and found The Burger Palace was in my area. Driving here was a breeze, especially at night. Cutting through few fancy restaurants in the parking lot. I parked right in front of The Burger Palace. It was 30 minutes before closing. I was so glad I wasn't rushed or reminded of such. There was one other customer in the restaurant. Waitress took my order. I didn't want anything with cheese to begin with. So, I decided to have a Vietnamese fashioned burger. Mmm... Wagyu Burger!!! I was very surprised to see the thickness of the beef patty and freshness of the bun. The mayonnaise was sparingly dressed on the bun with an open face. I asked the jalapeño to be in the side, which made the plating exquisite. The pickled shredded carrots was the center of the attention while the bun and burger fulfilled my taste buds. Overall, I had a wonderful dinner meal. read more

Thoroughly decent burger (tried the American Classic) but far from my favorite in Houston. The truffle fries had a good flavor but could have used more crisp. The menu had ample burger choices and plenty of non-burger options to choose from. read more

"If you find yourself going to Burger-Chan on a Monday just to realize they're closed, The Burger Palace is an alternative that will make you understand not to make that same mistake again." I came to this establishment to honor National Cheeseburger day. My first choice is Burger-Chan, unfortunately they're closed on Mondays. So since Burger Palace was walking distance, I decided to give them a try. It is a mom and pop shop and wait times and service can take a hit on battle weary owners. The entire place is ran by the owners and the FOH staff is the co-owner. NGL, he's got to have one of the most mean lookin faces I've ever seen in the service industry. He's a man of few words and clearly, being welcoming is not his strong suit. However, during my experience, his level of service was sufficient, barely. The Burger Palace touts itself as a 'Stylish burger spot featuring Akaushi beef patties cooked-to-order & dressed with gourmet toppings'. 'Gourmet burgers' seem to be used to separate its burger meals from your traditional fast food joints. However you can find 'gourmet' toppings the norm these days. Despite touting Akaushi beef patties, you can hardly tell any difference of it from any other gourmet burger place. Again, its leaning towards the norm to have specifically branded/graded beef. The faculty itself has seen better days. Trying to capitalize on the contemporary, modern interior décor, the faculty is musty and grime seems to be creeping in the nooks and crannies. It is a few degrees above comfortable level and humidity is noticeable in the air. The abstract color tables, weird looking statues and dilapidated hanging chandelier doesn't blend well with being a hamburger joint. I elected to get the Texas Cheese Burger. The brioche bun was good and it came adequately topped with fresh jalapenos, grilled onions and cheddar. Size wise, it is a tad bigger than average but it did top me off, just barely. Overall its a satisfactory and good cheeseburger (Does not come with fries), but at $13, its a tough sell. I got the parmesan and rosemary fries to share too, but it also came in at a hard-to-swallow price of $7 for a basket. The Burger Palace's prime time was probably around 10-12 years ago. It's seen better days as newer and more modern/casual places have Burger Palace beat. One such place is Burger-Chan which is literally across the street within walking distance. I feel The Burger Palace's days are numbered. Despite lacking in good service and higher than normal pricing, The Burger Palace does offer a decent burger. However its not enough to bring me back for a second try. Things overall were just 'Ok'. If you find yourself going to Burger-Chan on a Monday just to realize they're closed, The Burger Palace is an alternative that will make you understand not to make that same mistake again. read more

The American Classic burger (Wagyu beef) I had was good except a little burnt at the bottom. For $12 I was expecting a little better and maybe a side to go along. I had to pay for a side and the Greek side salad was nothing to brag about. Service is okay. The food came quickly. I went during lunchtime and it looks like it has seen better days. I was honestly a little taken aback when I walked in because of how empty and divey looking. read more

I came in for a quick lunch when I was in the area for a conference. The Burger Palace was within walking distance from my hotel, and was tucked in a corner of a shopping center. The exterior of the building did not look out of the ordinary, and the interior appeared to be quite jaded, with a 1980s feel to it--although it is clear that the place began operations well after that time! I took a seat at the bar area--it does not appear that they serve spirits and mixed drinks at The Burger Palace, but there is a beer selection on the menu. It appears that there was only one person working and running the entire operation the day I visited. The server offered me a menu but was not too chatty, as he had other tables to tend to. I took some time to look at the menu and placed my order--an American Classic Burger, Truffle Fries, and a Diet Coke. The drink arrived in a can along with a glass filled with ice, so obviously no refills at The Burger Palace. After some time, the burger and fries arrived. The American Classic burger was presented well with a side of ketchup. It was a basic cheeseburger on a (I presume) brioche bun with a good quality (kobe) beef patty, American cheese, lettuce, tomato, onions, and a unique sauce. The truffle fries were fried in truffle-infused oil, and was perfectly crisp. Overall, the meal was wonderful. Aside from the quirky decor and understaffed service, I had a wonderful lunch at The Burger Palace and would certainly come back if the opportunity affords it! read more

The food here is really good. But the service was poor with the owner looking annoyed at my entrance when I entered. There are several TVs not on, music was very loud, dining area was messy and dirty and soda fountains were out. I order the below burger and rosemary parm fries which were very good. The owner/server was coughing a lot, didn't hear very well and took a long time. He argued with me and other customers over our bill. I ordered a soda but never received it. Not wanting to wait, I took a can of Diet Coke to go. At least it was cold. Bottom line, I felt uncomfortable and the atmosphere and service took away from the food. read more

We ended up here because I was really looking forward to a gourmet burger from a nearby place but it was closed. Given the high reviews, even with some disclaimers, I was willing to give it a try. Long story short, there was nothing wrong per se but I won't be back. Ambience 1/5: it just looks dingy and sad inside, which I can overlook but there were multiple dirty tables with dirty dishes piled up. Even after the dishes were removed (after sitting around for 30 min), the table was not wiped down after. I was grossed out by the general un-cleanliness, and I frequently eat in Chinatown. The lights are really dim and the tables are black so it's even harder to see if the table is clean. If they just upgraded to brighter lights it'd make a big difference imo. They also had 3-5 tvs around and none were on. Service 3/5: there was only one guy working as server, front of house, busser and he moved sloooow. I knew from the number of tables sitting there looking disgruntled that service would not be fast so knew what I was getting into. He was fine but it was clear either someone didn't show up for a shift and he was covering or he didn't know all the roles. One nitpick - as the one person working front of the house, you shouldn't stop to socialize for an extended period of time. We watched our burgers sit on the counter for 10 min while he chit chatted. Our stares finally got him moving. Food 3/5: the burgers were juicy, but not medium as we requested. The buns were well toasted and crispy on the edges as I prefer. One of the burgers had a patty that was ridiculously salty. Described as saltier than salt and vinegar chips. Mine (Swiss blue) was ok but got a little salty at the end. Now the rosemary and Parmesan fries were amazing. But is it enough for me to return? Unfortunately not. read more

mixed bag... meat/bun - 5 stars! YUM! EXCELLENT! other reviewers are ON the mark about that! service - 2 NOTES: soda is by the can, fries & o-rings are frozen battered variety this place isnt much to look at from the outside, doesnt get much better when you get inside, but im not reviewing their decor, its their food im interested in. it is tucked in the very corner of a shopping center, so its not visible from the streets on either side of it. several different types of "regional" decked out burgers. i hardly ever order a burger with lots of things on it without cutting almost half of them - im picky that way. just give me the MEAT & CHEESE! but the mexico city burger sounded good ($13). it came with pepper jack cheese, tex-mex sauce, avo, tortilla strips and a cilantro-lime aoili - which i did ask to be cut. i am not a mayo fan. hubbie ordered the texas cheeseburger ($13) which comes with sharp cheddar cheese, jalapeños, caramelized onions, bacon, spicy mustard and garlic aioli - hubbie likes mayo, so he ordered his as it comes. we were asked how we wanted the meat, we both asked for pink in the center. when our burgers arrived, i cut mine in half and noticed several things... no pink, no sauce, cheese was not pepper jack and there was lettuce and some cabbage slaw on it. i also noticed that the aioli i asked to be cut had been added, then SCRAPED OFF! this is a personal pet peeve. mayo stays in the nooks and crannies, i dont like mayo, dont scrape it off, give me a new bun please. i asked about the salsa only. cook told waiter it was "in it". unclear if this meant on the burger or mixed with the meat, i tried it. that was when i discovered cheese was swiss and nope, no salsa. i also noticed it was a darn tasty burger in spite of not being what i ordered. decided asking for a redo wasnt worth it, but also slightly disappointed that the one time the flavor combo seemed good enough for me to leave alone - i didnt get that. hubbie found nothing wrong with his and we quickly put them away. meat was tasty, juicy and loosely packed. the bun was light and sweet and held up well. both of us polished off our burgers! battered fries ($5) were hot and crisp, but they were frozen battered fries so... hubbie tried to report problem in mens room to server, who was apparently not open to hearing about it and was very brusque and rude. i would advise ordering burgers to go, make your own frozen (or fresh) fries or o-rings at home. but check your burger before you head out! dining in experience just wasnt very enjoyable. read more

The Burger Palace - Counter service - Burgers Near Me - Houston, Texas

Tried this place since it was close to the hotel. I was welcomed by a friendly voice behind the counter and told I could sit anywhere. The burger came out fresh and hot off the grill. The flavor of the burger was good the blue cheese complimented the meat very well. You can tell that the burger was seasoned while being cooked so there was flavor in almost every bite. The side salad was underwhelming especially for $5.95 but hindsight is always 20/20. The place was very quiet even at 7:30 on a Thursday night but I kind of enjoyed the peace and quite. Overall good burger and since I'm here often for work I will probably be back to try other burgers. read more
