    First time Burger Boy experiencer and I will gladly admit that it exceeded my expectations. Most fast food burgers are available simply to fill your stomach for cheap. But the good ones make you crave it after you've left. Being from the Austin area, sadly, Burger Boy is not available. But luckily, we made time to visit this location after leaving SeaWorld. The service we were provided immediately after entering was top notch. Smiles, welcoming hospitality, cleanliness, and all around great attitudes. Looking at the menu, we were also very happy, since everything is very reasonably priced. However, the most important thing is the food and how good it tastes. And yes, the food was extremely fresh, and delicious. I don't know if we got lucky or if all Burger Boy locations are like this specific one, but Burger Boy is awesome. The shakes, fries, and of course the burgers were all damn good. We'll definitely be back next time we're in San Antonio.

    We visited San Antonio and decided to try Burger Boy. They have a nice patio to eat outside and plenty of room inside. We enjoyed our burgers with crinkle cut fries. The strawberry shake tasted like strawberry shortcake; it was delicious. Service was great, we will return on our next visit to San Antonio.

    For a fast food restaurant, they serve up a pretty darn good burger. Ordered a double burger with large fries and a drink. Two large juicy patties topped with tomatoes, onions, lettuce, and added some mustard from the condiment bar. Burger was a bit salty though. But one of the things that made Burger Boy stand out from the rest are there.....crinkle fries!! Yes crinkle fries. None of those skimpy thin shoe lace fries. These are thick, not soggy, with a good crisp. Good burger, clean establishment, fast service, and reasonable prices.

    Quick, easy, delicious! Left our hotel after a nap in search of something fast before a rain storm. We realized our intended destination was a little too far, as the storm worsened. The flashing lights on the sign at the intersection caught our eye, so we pulled. I ordered a "junior boy" ,all the way, with cheese and jalapeños...idk if I was just exhausted/starving but it was delicious. I feel like I ate it in 4 or five bites and i never finish burgers. The jalapeños were a perfect addition! I like when patties are thin and the bread ratio matches. I tried an orange creamsicle shake which was super subtle in flavor. My husband had a banana shake and added caramel- tasted just like banana pudding! My little one tried a fruity pebble shake, he enjoyed the taste but not the crispy crunchy pieces. The employees took my order CFA style outside in the drive thru line with hands free umbrellas. They were so kind and without attitude. I wish I had more pictures. This place isn't somewhere I'd go out of my way to recommend, but if you're in the area and searching for a quick bite to eat then this is it!

    Sometimes you just want a good old fashioned, no frills cheese burger. Burger Boy is it! I've had the over the top cheeseburger with all the toppings, but often times you taste everything but the meat. Burger Boy satisfies the craving for a burger where the meat is the star of the show. Caramel milshake was fine. Not the best, but serviceable. Overall, solid burger and I will he back soon.

    Architecture mixes nostalgia and contemporary design. Does it? Is my view subjective? Maybe. But there's awesome burgers inside.

They serve a variety of burgers, sandwiches, wings, dogs, desserts, and meals include either a side of tots, fries, cucumbers with chamoy and lucas, or corn in a cup. Other sides are available as well. This trip since we craved for burgers, ordered: Bistro burger- wonderfully seasoned and cooked, served on sourdough, with avocado, grilled onions and mushrooms, mayo. One thing that should be added, the works, I felt it would be even better with the addition of lettuce, pickles, and tomatoes. I ordered the cucumbers sans chamoy and lucas. I appreciate simple veggies. Mexican burger- excellent! Juicy burger with cheese, jalapenos, pico de gallo, bacon and the works. The tater tots had a nice and crispy outer texture as it should. Overall- very good. Tasty, reasonable, clean, and great service. We'll have to make sure to come back sooner!

The food was not the best especially for the price. The drinks on other hand were amazing. My server Marah toke great care of me. Attentive, funny, and well knowledgeable.

    Update to first review below, rating updated from a 3 to a 5 star (drinks & bartender would get 10+…read morestars if we could rate that high): Saturday night: Went back for after dinner drinks at the Downstairs (a "speakeasy" throwback, look up the history of the place to see why). Drinks were AMAZING! Bartender Rob made the best Negroni I've ever had. I asked him to use whatever gin he thought best--result was an artistic smooooooth full-bodied drink. Told him when I was done I'd lick the glass if it wasn't considered so uncouth for a 'mature' lady like myself to do so Hubby's Buffalo Trace bourbon old fashioned was also outstanding. Rob was the bartender last night who did such a great job, and his work was even better tonight. We highly recommend The EsquireTavern for excellent cocktails. We love the long wood bar and high copper ceiling upstairs, but love the intimate speakeasy atmosphere downstairs even more. We'll definitely be back every time we're in San Antonio! First review, Friday night: Drinks were great (Manhattan and Bourbon Old Fashioned). REAL drinks, no complaints at all about those. And the bartenders were very friendly and helpful. Those aspects of the Esquire get 5+ stars from us. But the appetizers were not good, close to inedible. It was about 8:30pm or so, so maybe they were getting ready to close out the kitchen but the chalupitas with chicken tasted like rubber, and no flavor at all. The seafood platter had something in it that was breading with shell inside, but no meat of any kind. We couldn't figure out what it was supposed to be. The shrimp was good and the fish was good but those other things... We'll always love the drinks, the long wooden bar, and the ambiance at the Esquire Tavern, but we'll eat somewhere else and come here for before or after dinner drinks. (See update above to this review for when we returned the next night for after dinner drinks.)

It's been a few years since I've been by; so, I was truly looking forward to getting something. I chose The Brat & tots (plain). I was very happy with my choice. The gentleman greeted me immediately. I thought it would take me a minute, but, as I stated, I chose The Brat immediately. I'm a little high strung from my age, so people kinda chuckle. It's cute. I make me smile. They put the perfect amount of mustard on it too! See the photos, but it comes covered with cabbage & crispy fried onions. It is amazing. I was able to get a whole 1/3 of it eaten before my body shut down. Tot wise, they were hot & perfectly fried! I like to dip mine in ketchup, but they offer you various other dips as well. So, I got ranch cuz, um, of course. Also, I really like their soda brand. I can't remember it, but it's a dia de los muertos skull for the logo, but I love their roots beer, which was my beverage of choice today. It's really a nice little place to just come in & sit & enjoy a yummy hotdog alone, or with family/friends.

My partner and I went on a Sunday morning just after 11am and there were already people coming in to eat. It's popular for a reason! I've eaten here a few times and had a very consistently good time, but this review will be about my most recent visit. We visited on a rainy day, but luckily we were able to snag one of the inside tables, we ordered at the counter and our orders arrived very quickly. I got the Ratchet dog which is a beef dog with queso, hot Cheetos and fried jalapeños. Dogfather uses quality dogs and buns for all of their gourmet dogs. I found the Ratchet to be meaty, salty with just right amount of spice from the jalapeños. My partner got the Pop it like it's hot, but removed the jalapeños. This was good but lacking a bit of flavor, however she and I both agreed that was on her for taking the jalapeños off the dog. Both dogs were extremely tasty, and we devoured both. I also got an order of curly fries loaded with their chili and cheese. For me, these did not have to go as HARD as they did. The chili they are using at Dogfather is seriously good, with a slight tang and a good amount of spice. It thrills but does not take away from your meal with too much heat. Very tasty. My only feedback is that Dogfather needs a larger space! There's a good size outside seating area, but for times like today when it's raining people need some coverage. They're doing it right and the crowds want to come! As I have stated this is a local favorite. If you live nearby, make it a regular spot. If you live in San Antonio, do yourself a favor and make a trip over at least sometimes. If you like hot dogs you won't go wrong.
