Fries were great burger sucked.
Michael L.

Old School fries were a 10! The burger sucked. Precooked reheated burger granted I got the 1/4 pound and not the 8oz but the bun to meat ratio was sad. And I love bread. Device was good. It's small so if it's busy plan on taking it out to eat.

Maaaaaaaaan. Do yourself a favor and come get a burger here! "The best burger behind bars." There isn't much seating if you want to eat here. That is okay. I ordered a half pound bacon cheeseburger with grilled jalapeños. It was hot, fresh, and fast. The picture doesn't capture the quality or flavor. Daniel, Maria, and Chris were awesome. Amazing staff. Y'all earn your ratings. Thank you. I'll definitely swing back when I'm in town again.

I asked for extra onions so my burger was off but omg! Bacon cheeseburger w extra onions!  delish!!

Must try! Heard about this place and thought, why not. It did not disappoint!! From the staff that was on point to the food & the Mexican Coke they had too! Will come again! Not pictured were nuggets that were 10/10!

Grilled Chicken Salad
Liz C.

First time here and the people and service are awesome! Not many places to sit, but it still feels cozy and welcoming. The chicken salad was to die for, very well seasoned and the fried egg and cheese added to the flavor. The 1/4 burger was huge...I will try that next time! I don't know how I missed this spot before.

Burnt bun

We hadn't had food from Harvey B's in a long time and it sounded so good to us. I called to place the order and was put on hold for over five minutes, then was hung up on. I called right back and was sent to answering with a full mailbox. Then called again and no one picked up. So I ordered online, a BBQ bacon burger and a Chili burger, Jalapeno Poppers and tots. Two of the poppers were so small hubby mistook them for tots. I tasted one and didn't finish it. Not good. Husband got order and brought it home and both of our buns were burned and my burger patty was burned, dried out, and tough enough that I had trouble cutting it with a sharp knife. I ate less than half and was done. Hubby didn't eat it all either and threw it away. The original owner must have sold this place because it was soo good but now it is abysmal. We are not going back. Awful!

What a wonderful find! This place isn't in the most savory side of town but it houses some of the best burgers you will ever eat. Walked in and was greeted by a friendly and personable young man behind the counter. He quickly explained the ins and outs of the menu and put us all at ease. Behind him you could see the kitchen staff at work making old school burgers. Nothing fancy, just good ingredients put together with care and passion. He recommended their onion rings and they were divine, crispy, battered not breaded and full of flavor. The burgers were made to order, juicy, hot and delicious. Drinks include craft options and the strawberry lemonade was spot on. The only downside of this place was a lack of seating but that was minimal given the goods.

Cheeseburger

I have NO CLUE how this place got good reviews . Our food was literally inedible. Pics tell the bulk of the issues and we ended up throwing most of our food away. From bits and ends for fries to burned chicken. Burned buns. Strawberry lemonade tasted like sugar water. Absolutely DISGUSTING

the front of the restaurant

Harvey Bs has been on my Hamburger hit list for several years now. It meets all my criteria(supported by Yelp reviews) of an old-school, hole-in-the-wall, delicious burger value. Simply stated it's a 4-star experience given those parameters. This is old east Dallas at the edge of gentrification. But,the foofoo hasnt caught up yet so, id say this is still explorers' territory. Your kids and wife driving in with you from North Dallas probably aren't going to find the charm that you do. But let's get down to the burger business. The place has years of patina on it. The M and M vending machine hasn't been used in decades but its still sitting there(turned around so no one uses it). I like that its still there. The place has the usual ephemera for a genuine hole in the wall. Random signs pulled from a strip club, mailbox made into a bird house...etc It's small and id say mainly takeout. There are about 6 counter spaces looking out the front window. I sat here as to breathe the air, watch the clientele and catch the full experience. These places are disappearing as fast as an Ice Cube in the August heat and I want to visit as many as possible before they're extinct. The small kitchen behind the register with an old flat top,some fryolator etc. Just the basics you need to sling some cheeseburgers. I ordered a double meat cheeseburger all the way which meant 2 1/4 lb patties,lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles lettuce, and mustard. I ask if the french fries were frozen or fresh. He said fresh so I got an order. I read a few reviews as I waited on my food and a common comment from a substantial number was over cooked meat. Guess what,yes,my meat was overcooked and a little dry and not as much flavor as i thought it should have. That one fact kept them out of five star territory and almost dropped them to 3. I mean if you are a burger place bring it right? The fries where good but id opt for the onion rings next time. Why? Because on my way out I was tipping and thanking them and noticed 2 big delicious batches of rings going down. This is a place you aren't going to just notice and stop. In this part of town, you have to be headed there. Id say if you love hamburgers and are adventurous, check it out. I may give it another shot, if im in the area hungry.

Order a 1/2cheeseburger and fries, one of the best burgers I've. I 100% recommend this place for a damn good burger! Took me back to my childhood when my dad would grill burgers on Sundays!

The spot
Dipesh P.

Wow. The food is great but the service and hospitality are WAY better!! We stopped by on a Saturday afternoon for lunch and had a great time. While waiting we decided to change our order from takeout to dine in because the staff was just so friendly and inviting! I got the 1/2 lb burger with bacon, cheese, and jalapeños. My son got a 1/4 lb with cheese. They originally forgot the cheese on my sons but the team was so friendly and nice and they quickly got him cheese! AND instead of just putting some cheese on it, they even reheated it so it would be melted. The gentleman that was working the register was so hospitable and nice that I have to give him a shoutout. His son showed up while we were eating and he was glowing with pride while hooking him up with a Frito pie -- which looked delicious by the way!

We rolled in after our morning workout and the place was packed, which honestly just confirmed we were in the right place. The ladies at the counter were awesome. I asked a ton of questions, and they didn't rush me at all--they answered everything with patience and good vibes. They even ran out of my partner's favorite salad, but then replenished it and made sure we got the size we wanted. They literally caught us at checkout to hand it over. That's hospitality. The sandwiches have street names, which gives it that real small-community feel. I went with the marble pastrami and it hit the spot after a workout. We also grabbed some drinks--this place has a surprising amount of healthy options. Enough that we walked out with a few in hand and a mental list of more to try next time. You can order to go or eat inside, and honestly both are solid options. If you see an open seat, grab it quick. Bonus points: there's a flower shop connected to the deli, so of course I wandered over and picked up some beautiful flowers for her. Perfect way to end a great visit.

I rarely leave reviews , in fact, this may be my first one, but this experience was so negative…read morethat I feel compelled to share it. I ordered two sandwiches through the DoorDash app for pickup. The app clearly stated that the sandwiches came with chips and potato salad, which is why I chose that option instead of ordering a different special. When I arrived at the restaurant, I still had to wait in line before reaching the cashier. When I finally got to the counter, she handed me my sandwiches and then told me that I had ordered chips and potato salad but had not paid for them. I calmly explained that the app showed those items as included with the sandwich. Instead of resolving the situation professionally, she told me she needed to call the owner. She then had me step aside while she helped three other customers, leaving me waiting awkwardly off to the side. When the owner finally called her back, she spoke to him loudly (almost argumentatively) about me being there and "claiming" the sandwiches came with chips and potato salad. It was embarrassing because other customers could clearly hear what was happening. Ultimately, I was told the owner said the sandwiches did not come with those sides. At that point, I just took my sandwiches and left. The entire situation felt uncomfortable and unnecessary. If there was a mix-up with the app, that isn't the customer's fault. Good customer service would have been to honor what was displayed in the app and clarify the issue internally afterward. Instead, I left feeling frustrated and embarrassed. Unfortunately, this was one of the worst restaurant experiences I've had.

Cafe Duro is a must when visiting the Lower Greenville area!…read more I recently visited this amazing European-style café during breakfast on a weekday and it was amazing. Please note that parking in this area is particularly difficult but if you come in the morning, it should be easier to find. Another thing worth nothing is that they are more of a quick standing coffee bar type of place and I definitely wouldn't recommend it for families or kids, so keep that in mind when visiting. Now to the food... They have a small but mighty menu for breakfast and lunch. For my first time I decided to try their The Monte Duro, which is a pastry style "hot pocket" with smoked prosciutto, mortadella, mustard and jam. For drink I decided to go with their Dirty Chai Latte. The drink was absolutely perfection and exactly what I needed in a warm Texas morning. The Monte Duro was cooked to perfection and packed with flavor! Both my friend and I ordered the same thing and we were both obsessed with it.

Ambiance: It is a very neighborhood coffee shop vibe. There is such cute decor inside but very…read moreminimal seating. I feel like the majority of people stand around or take it to go. The staff is not really friendly but the vibes were still peaceful. Mushroom grilled cheese: This was so yummmy!! The bread comes perfectly crispy and buttery. There were tons of mushrooms and creamy flavor. By far one of the best grilled cheeses I ever had. Banana horchata matcha: This drink was very sweet and good for people that dont like bitter drinks. I loved the banana flavor and it reminded me of banana bread. There was also a lot of cinnamon in the drink which made it so tasty.

I…read morefound this place on GrubHub and ordered several things to get an idea of the quality of their food. The large vanilla latte was excellent, no problem there. The blueberry scone was fresh and although I only pinched a small bite from it, I could tell it was moister and more flavorful than most, well done! I wanted to try the Chocolate Kouign Amann, since I had no idea what it was, lol. It was packed with chocolate, but it wasn't fresh, the wonderful flaky pastry was rock hard. And now the quiche - I wanted SO much to love it - it was bursting with ham and the pastry looked lovely. But the pastry was SO hard that I couldn't even cut into it! I wanted to eat it with a fork but had to pick it up to bite the top part, since it was like wood. And the entire bottom of the quiche was drenched - when I bit into a bite from the lower part, all this water came squirting out - every bite that touched the bottom part of it was squirting water! I was so grossed out, why was this happening? Unlike my fave place La Madeleine, they only send you a slice, so sadly that was my one and only experience with Village Bakery quiche. Really wish it would have been better, the other reviews showed promise.

There was a huge assortment of danish, butterfly cookies, and a variety of other baked goods. We debated about which ones to buy and picked out our favorites. They were delicious and freshly made. Service was great and they were very patient as we tried to make up our mind on which pastries we were going to buy. Prices were average for what you would expect for a homemade pastry shop. The shop had a comfy feel with cute tables and posters on the wall. We would definitely go back for more baked goods.Yum!

The lettuce wraps were flavorful from the pork, but the cucumber and carrots didn't have any seasoning or picking to they. Just sliced which i think was a missed opportunity. They were good and petty satisfying. My wife had the salad which she said was good but didn't really have any flavor. We like a good anchovy base so this may be perfect if you don't. The chicken came out pretty dark but it was still plenty juicy. My only real complaint is it was so dark inside. I had to take my photo in night mode. Not that big a deal but I like to see what I'm eating. We will be back to try more. It all looked so good.
