I will always give this place 5 stars whether in Houston or in Austin, cause P. Terry's will always…read morebe delicious and awesome! They kept the same retro vibe of the ambiance throughout the whole restaurant, from the dine-in to the drive-thru, they kept everything the same. I love it! Came for their 21st Birthday and had the Birthday Combo, which was the Double Cheeseburger, Fries and Birthday Shake, and everything tasted great! Double cheeseburger tasted great and was very filling, the fries were crispy and had a great taste, the birthday shake wasn't too sweet and all tasted good!

Having taken a rather LONG time to build a very...unique building the entire neighborhood was abuzz…read morewith the opening of PTerry's. We waited for the grand opening to die down and make our way to sample the fares. Trying a new burger joint is a crucible with me. I start with the lowest common denominator. Cheeseburger and fries kids. Upon arrival there are 2 lanes. Outstanding for a large amount of traffic which at 6:37 PM (I am nothing if not a dork) we arrived and made our first order. Mine was the reg Cheeseburger, no lettuce, no tomato, add onions and pickles. Side of "fries". I usually customize at a fast food place to ensure a fresh made delivery, but again, for the first venture into the unknown, I adjust for the lowest common denominator. Failing to get this right is like trying to tie your shoe with both hands tied behind your back. In the dark. Darkness fell. Our lane had 2 cars in front of us. No problem correct? Problem. We waited. And as we waited for the 2 vehicles in front of us to get their food. No less than 5...yes...5 cars that came in the lane adjacent to us had come in AFTER us...gotten their food...and left BEFORE we even got to the window to pay. I was now weary. 1 vehicle was handed 4 bags of food. I get it. You ordered for a crew. Have them pull out of the lane and spot them while continuing to carry on with additional orders. Not sure if this is policy, or inexperience in industry methods. Anyway... Fortunately, Abraham greeted us at the window. A delightful young man. He greeted both me and my wife with a huge smile courtesy and even called my wife "ma'am". His parents dun good. Spotting the doggy cookies in a jar, I inquired if I may take one home for my monster king shepherd. He didn't blink an eye and grabbed one for the pup and even took time to ask questions about her. Great young man and great service, Abraham. Get a raise already. The food. Well...this is the interesting part...I don't have much to write. My wife and I actually discussed it...and for the first time...we were blank. It was just...an hamburger...from a fast food restaurant. Obviously not a "fresh cooked patty" as the experience cook can spot the dry marks of a cracked piece of ground that has been sitting there...I got plenty of pickles...about ¼ teaspoon of this "special sauce" and literally counted...4 yes...4 little squares of diced onion. I literally made my wife count them to confirm 4 little squares. No problem. With my knife skills I chopped up some at home to add on after the initial taste. Generic Sysco bun. That's literally it. It was just an fast food cheeseburger. Beats the snot out of Micky Dee's and Burger Kang, but falls short of Wendy's. My wife noted if she were caught short and just needed something for the kids...she would stop here after grocery shopping. But not a making a special trip saying "Damn...I'm CRAVING P Terry's". It was just an fast food burger. Couldn't taste the "special sauce" (mayo, ketchup, pickle juice/vinegar, salt) at all. Fries. Don't bother. They are flaccid par-cooked potato sticks with no browning or salt. 80% went in the bin. Sadly...this DID fall WAY short of Micky Dee's. Back to back taste test of the "Pterry's ketchup"...90% sure it is repackaged Heinz. Which is not a bad thing as Heinz is the superior ketchup to all ketchup. We both agreed Wendy's has a better burger and DEFINITELY better fries. But for $11 it is priced well. Just hope this location does not fold. The building is made out of solid concrete, thus the year long build and uglier than sin. Also if you have a big truck. Take the outside line or you will be hopping the curb. Someone didn't measure. Welp. I take back paragraph 6 in hindsight. I did have a lot to say...without really saying anything. This review is like that person you talk to next to the hotel bar on a business trip. You can do it for hours...and not remember a damn thing they said. Wait...did I just simile and metaphor at the same time? TLDR time kids!!! Location? It is close. It is an eye sore. And it is built like a concrete s**thouse. Meh. Staff? Amazing. Abraham, Looking at you my friend. Well done young man. Food? Utterly forgettable. At least it was reasonably priced to ingest calories when I do not feel like cooking...THERE!!! I found what I was trying to say!!! --- That only took 755ish words...Come on post Gen X-er's...learn to write. What...I don't remember a damn thing we just talked about. See what I mean? Rock solid 2 stars.
