    This place came recommended by a friend here in Playa Del Carmen. I love the 50s theme, but the place was not as clean as I thought it would be. By that, I mean the floors and tables were not wiped down or really clean. It wasn't filthy or anything. The service was good until the food came out and we were eating. I noticed the cook came out and started talking with the server. Next they were focusing on me and laughing. I felt like maybe I looked up and they were in the middle of a conversation that didn't involve me until I looked again. This time they were clearly pointing and looking at me while laughing. I instantly put my food down and told my guest that something is going on. We paid the bill and left. I pray they didn't do anything to my food. The unprofessional, and obvious disrespect has me sad. I love and treat every human with fairness and I'd never make someone feel uncomfortable in my business or personal space ever. NEVER EVER EXCEPT RACISM, CLASSISM, OR DISRESPECT FROM ANYONE. SHAME ON YOU.

    This fully vegan burger place is not bad. They do make their own Pattie's so that's a plus. Reminds me of In-N-Out burger but just vegan.

    Delicious, simple vegan food with a cute 50s vibe. The snickers milkshake alone is worth the visit!

    We ate here 3 times when we were in Playa. Sooooo good. Chicken sandwich and loaded fries was the best.

    Such a cute little 50's themed restaurant. Staff is very friendly and the milkshakes are a MUST.

    Great little burger place!…read more Thick, flavorful patties and a variety of different options on the menu. My husband got the double meat angus burger and I got the hawaiana burger. Both burgers were delicious. You can watch the chef make the burgers in front of you fresh on the grill. The waiter was quick and friendly. They have beer, your regular bottled beverages (soda and water) and they had tea as well. Their green cream sauce has just the right amount of kick and goes great with your burger or fries. It's open air but has a nice breeze that comes through the back area. We will definitely come again!

    I hesitate to write this, because the Burger House already gets pretty busy as the night goes on…read moreand I'll just have to wait longer as more people show up there, but here it goes. George (the owner and hardest worker there) deserves it. He's the guy behind the grill, if you want to know who George is. This is my go to cheeseburger restaurant in Cozumel. I have to go there at least once every trip. I have followed George from the first place I knew of that he had, which was a very primitive lean-to "shack" next to the Las Anclas Hotel nearer downtown, to the current location on Xel-ha. The place he is in now seems to be my favorite though. There is quite a bit more room for him to create his burger masterpieces now. There is also more seating area and part of it feels like you are in a jungle setting. And you can tell business is good because of all of the new employees. Glad to see it. So for this trip, I had to make sure it was still in the same place as before. It was. It's actually a little closer to my hotel now, about a mile walk, so that was good. I took the walk after dinner, but still wanted some onion rings when I got here. They were great, as always. They serve a small dish of dipping sauce that has an initial spicy "bite" you will feel in your mouth and on your lips for a few minutes, but the taste makes you want more. The onion rings were just as I remembered, and as I write this, my mouth is actually watering just thinking about them. After a nice cold coca-cola to cool me off, I said thanks to George and his server, and I was on my way. I knew I'd be back for a cheeseburger another day of the trip. That day was Wednesday. Note that he is usually closed on Monday and Tuesday, so don't go then. I had seen another guy at my hotel, who I had been diving on a boat with, order a cheeseburger at the hotel, so I told him about the Burger House. Afterward, he decided to go with me. Well we arrived rather early, probably about 8pm, and were able to find seats pretty easily in the back behind the grill. I placed my order for the Traditional and my friend ordered something that I wasn't paying attention to. I also ordered another order of onion rings to share this time. The food arrived, and the burger on my friend's plate was three hamburger patties high, probably close to about six inches high. It was huge. I really didn't think he would finish it, but to my surprise, every bit of it was gone by the time we left. He said he liked it, and I wouldn't think otherwise, because that was a lot of cheeseburger and I would never imagine anyone eating that much of one and not liking it. Mine was good, as always, too. So were the onion rings again. The spicy sauce for the rings also got a surprised reaction from my friend as well. That stuff complements the onion rings in a good way. Don't pass it up. So the check came for the two cheeseburgers, two orders of fries, an order of onion rings, and two bottles of soda, and it was $340 pesos, about $17USD. Not bad for all we were served. So I'll be back again next time, likely with more people to introduce to the restaurant, like I've always done in the past, but I just hope everyone else reading this review goes at a different time than I do, so I don't have to wait for mine. Good job, George and crew. Keep it up and we will see you again.
