    Juicy, greasy great bacon cheeseburger. You can also see the fantastic grill chicken salad.
    Tim H.

    This is a great place. The environment is so comfortable and inviting. Busy location which is great for people watching. Jorge was great. He took our order with a smile and the order was correct. The food you can tell it's fresh. Great, great burgers. I got the double meat peperjack bacon cheeseburger.

    First timer, impressive menu options, relaxed atmosphere, great service and friendly staff. Had a pepper jack cheeseburger with bacon and pickles. You add your own mustard, mayo, or ketchup at your table. Choose your bun style, if you don't, you'll get the poppy seed bun. Choose between a 1/3 pound or a 1/2 pound patty, which are cooked medium unless you specify. I got the shoestring onions which were good, but greasy. I'll be back as there is other menu items I want to try.

    What's not to love about a Dallas burger icon: Chip's Old Fashioned Hamburgers!?! Since moving to the Dallas area in the 1980's, we found Chip's to be a consistent burger joint. Sadly, we're usually not south of LBJ very often. But when we are and it's mealtime, it's always a sure thing. From the poppy seed toasted buns, solid burger patty and fresh toppings, to the awesome crispy tater tots- Chip's is a winner!! Note that parking can be tight, so it's best to come not at a prime meal time. They are doing some alley construction right behind the restaurant. We found a spot right out front at 1:00 on a Sunday, so we must have hit it right. They have a front screened in patio. Enter through the door off the side parking lot (it's painted Entrance on the building) to get to the ordering line or you can work your way in through the patio. For a solid burger experience, check out Chip's!

    Been a customer since the 1980's starting at the Harry Hines location. This location on Lovers Lane is a classic burger place. The order process is organized and efficient. The menu is expansive and able to satisfy different tastes. The burger is fantastic. The sesame seed buns are a must. The meat is premium grade and perfectly paired with fresh vegetables. Your first bite confirms the term " old fashion " is in your hands. French fries are golden brown with the right crunch. Atmosphere and vibe are conducive to relaxed dining. Parking is a challenge due to alley construction. If you haven't eaten here - Go ! If have been - Go again! One of the best burgers in DFW.

    On the left is their version of double lettuce.... On the right is my version (I got more lettuce on the side.

    **** Critic's Review... Sad **** Although the food quality is tasty, the issues and poor cleanliness will keep me away. My Burger: Good size, meat to the edges of the bun, a traditional big burger. I kept it simple... 1/3 lb patty cooked medium, cheese, crispy bacon, double lettuce, and ketchup. Flavor score: 8 of 10 However, when I ordered cheese, I was not asked which type. They offer several cheeses and I was testing the cashier. Sadly, the cashier picked American without saying anything. There was no ketchup on the burger and the lettuce was so minimal, you could barely see it in the center cut photo (left half) - not even close the 2x I ordered. I was able to get a side of lettuce which I used on the right 1/2 of the center cut photo to demonstrate what I expected. Not a good order fulfillment. Overall: 3 out of 10 for bad construction. Onion Rings - thin cut: What a delicious blast!!! Ate every one!!! Delicious! Score: 9 of 10 Fries: I asked for extra crispy "so they snap". I was told it could be done. Sadly, got so-so medium cooked and not really crispy at all. Only ate a few with ranch... about 8-10 fries in all. Sadly, just ordinary. (Do not expect crispy.) Score: 4 of 10 Chocolate Shake: Perfect thickness to get through a straw without being too runny. But that's only when you first get it. That fact is gone within 6+/- minutes. It's served in a thin plastic cup - not styrofoam to keep it cold. (Stupid mistake!) Would be better to be thinker and colder to last longer. Lost it's consistency 1/2 way through it. Score: 3 of 10... (but flavor is 9 of 10.) Bar $16 for a class of cheap Chardonnay that costs $14 a bottle retail is a bit much per glass. Get water and drink at home. Bathrooms: Not good - sadly disgusting. Go before you arrive! Friend said she had flys all over the seat in there and "wanted to be anywhere else!" Score: 2 of 10 (I would give a zero but I didn't go in the women's bathroom and see it personally.) Music: They play country music a little too loud to chat easily. (Really? Is this a burger joint or BBQ place?!?) I was ready to move a few tables and start 2-stepping! Classic 60's-70's wold be a better match to the decor. Atmosphere: Visually fun... but the walls are the cleanest part of this place. Our table was sticky from the first time I touch it! I went to wash my hands and wanted move tables, but she said no. Seemed to only have had crumbs brushed on the floor all day long between customers - never wiped down with cleaning solution and a rag all day. (And in the 90 min we were there, customers came and went but I never observed a table wipe down!) Ugh - the floor was rancid throughout the dining area... 20-30 foot area of visible old sticky spills from the day all over the 'main walkway'. You could see gross areas so noticeably it was easy to step around the small spots. I told staff it needed to be cleaned now and in the 90 minutes we were there... no one cleaned it. (Lazy standards!) Accountability it at the top!!! Needs a new GM! Also, 6pm on a Monday night there were only 3 other tables while we were there. At a minimum, that should have been 8-10 tables. Seems people have noticed what I see and are silent voting by not going back. FYI - I asked for a to-go portion of lettuce in a sealed container. Although airtight, 15 hours later, the lettuce was mostly brown. Not very fresh or if the sack was opened that day... it's the cheapest available. (Many places I test for lettuce to-go can last 15+ hrs staying fresh... and Tex-Mex places are the best!) If the tables, floors and bathrooms are this gross... what will you find in the food storage areas, freezers and refrigerators?!? (Did they get a segment on "Kitchen Nightmares" with Gordon Ramsey?!? They definitely qualify from what I saw!) Overall Score = 2 stars Unfortunately, if everyone has my experience... it's only an overall 2 star (and that's being generous!) The food is tasty - but I'm now scared of what I'm eating there. Today... you are not getting yesterday's food.

    Veggie Burger with Sweet Potato Fries
    Michelle C.

    I'm not a huge burger person, but when I did do get some, I always get a veggie burger. The burger itself was good. The quality is up to part with its value. The sweet potato fries were whatever, I wouldn't get it again. I do recommend the poppy seed bun though! The interior is very spacious and there are plenty of seats to dine into. The cashier was nice as well and helped me decide on the two options I was interested in.

    The table with the food
    Havah S.

    The service was good. The man behind the counter was friendly. I placed my order and then sat down and the food came. The order was for a buffalo burger (medium rare), fried dill pickles, and fried mushrooms. The food came out very quickly, and when I cut the burger in half I realized that the burger was undercooked. I had ordered medium rare but the burger was rare. It was warm just on the outside and cold one inside. I didn't want to complain so I just ate it, however I didn't really enjoy it. The fried mushrooms were really good. The ambiance was nice. The experience in general was a good one, but I do feel I wasted my money on the buffalo burger. I was hoping to try something new and really love it. Maybe at another point I'll try a buffalo burger and like it.

    Hamburger with cheese, poppyseed bun, fries and ranch
    Kaysha K.

    Came here with some friends after a choral concert. The poppyseed bun on the hamburger was like a cloud, so delicious! I also got a side of fries and ranch, which were also great! The service was quick and friendly. Ambiance was old school burger joint, nothing too fancy or frilly. The only disappointment I had was that they didn't have milkshakes available that night, so I'll have to come back another time and try one! They also have a bar available for of-age adults to grab a drink

    OMG I love this place. Amazing food, retro tunes, and charming burger joint vibe. When most everything in north dallas is bland corporate chic, it's nice to find a place that has its own character

    I stopped at the North Beckley location after an appointment. I want sure what to expect since the reviews were kinda all over the place. I liked it. Great fresh fries, good burger and the poppy seed bun is a fresh bonus. The up charge to add toppings seems high but I love me a fried egg. It's worth a try

    Pretty extensive menu with some pretty interesting looking burgers!!…read more I got the Hot Bastard and sweet potato fries. I just got the burger as it came, it seemed like it would be good as is. And it was! Had a spicy kick as you'd expect. It was very busy when I was there so there was a bit of a wait for orders to be taken and for the food to come out however, again, it was pretty packed so I'm not gonna begrudge anyone some delays when things are busy. I sat outside as it was a nice evening albeit slightly chilly and I didn't have a sweatshirt or jacket but that's my own fault. I'd definitely go again but I would also definitely get something other than the Hot Bastard - not because there was anything wrong with the Hot Bastard it's just the are so many good looking burgers on the menu I want to diversify!!!

Order-to-Entree: 17 Minutes I easily found a table for two and there's ample indoor and outdoor seating. We got our beers pretty quickly, and our main courses came decently quickly as well. The burger was juicy and the sweet potato fries were solid. They've got an amazing diverse burger menu and I can see why it's a local favorite. Would definitely come back again.

This unassuming restaurant tucked in a corner of nondescript row of stores has stood the test of time. My first review of the place was in 2013. Here it is 13 years later then it is still going strong. I went for lunch with the family on a snow day. You order at the counter and they bring it to your table. No numbers, they just remember who you are. I always get combo number 1 and add sweet potato fries. The prices are great and not much more than McDonalds but the difference in value is significant. The burgers are not thick but this time I noticed the double burger (#2) is just a couple of bucks more than the the single patty in #1. Note to self for next time. Although the patty is thin, the flavors work. The burger comes with lettuce, tomato, onion, and mustard. No ketchup, you add that yourself. The bun with sesame seeds always comes out piping hot. Sweet potato fries are crispy and not greasy. The combo comes with a drink for $10.99. That's a deal. I hope they stay in business another 13 years!

If you care more about flavor than atmosphere, this is the spot.

    Chip's Old Fashioned Hamburgers is an old school hamburger joint that is a landmark in Dallas. You…read morecan get an poppy seed bun burger and shake with a large side of Dallas history. The neighborhood may continue to change around it, but Chip's remains the same. My Overall Rating - 4 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return) Atmosphere - Chip's has an old school, nostalgic feel. The restaurant has an iconic sloping roof with a yellow outdoor exterior and a big green sign with its logo. Inside, there are plenty of booths, a bar, and even outdoor seating. Chip's has grown and expanded over the years but to me that adds to the nostalgic charm. 1 Star. Service - Chip's may have invented counter service. Upon entering, you look at the menu posted on the wall and place your order. You'll get a number (or they'll ask for your name), and you grab a table, and when your food is ready it comes out. Fast, efficient, and the staff was super friendly. 1 Star. Food - Chip's is known for its poppy seed hamburger buns. While it's pretty and tasty, the most important part, the patty, is pretty average. Honestly, there are many other great burger joints in Dallas. On the other hand, the fried onion strings are a must order for your side. While I wasn't a fan of the burger, the fried onion strings saved my meal. The Oreo and Fresh Banana shakes were also a nice cold, creamy, sweet ending to my meal. 1 Star. Will I Return? - Yes. I hope Chip's never changes.

The food is very messy and oily so make sure you bring some hand sanitizer. They packed in a lot of napkins as well. The burger itself was just alright, was a little cold for me though so not so sure how long it was waiting. The lettuce and tomato was a little on the soggy side. The meat itself was just alright.
