Hippo Burger with onion rings.
Stacey S.

They are located in a small strip center closer to the Lyondell plant off Sheldon. You order in the back have a seat and they bring it when it's ready. The employees were friendly and helped make suggestions. Three people- everyone got burgers but different sides. Onion rings were thick slices and fried in more of a cornmeal battered. I think they would have been better is a more flaky batter. The chili cheese fries were lacking. I was just craving that "ballpark" vibe hoping this would deliver and it didn't. Idk how to make that better ‍ the regular fries, although seasoned needed more salt. Everything delivered was as ordered. Hot and fulfilling. The burgers were big and the meat patty was substantial. Not a chain burger for sure. I will return but will try the spicy crispy chicken sandwich, tator tots and the wings. I'll keep you posted The agua Fresca machine was down. But would have loved to try the Pina. Until we eat again....

Yes, now for the 5 stars and why? Location, location. Buns upside down as usual. Spacious shopping area with enough parking. Drive-thru or Dine-in. And the outside patio, nice and Big! Big interior as well and better than the other locations I've tried. Buns on burger aren't soggy here. Noticed, they medium toast there buns to keep from being too wet in the clear container. Smartttttt. Sweet potato fries my usual, soooo good. Mushroom burger on point. And the Crispy Chicken Burger, Bussin'. They never use to have any fried Chicken Burger but now it's here and tastes so good. Guess people like me, had to mention it in the past. Burgers still Huge. No shakes this time for me. This is my favorite location now with what meets everything in a business for burgers, and what I like.

If you want a good big burger go try out hippo burgers. You won't be disappointed. I ordered the bacon cheeseburger with fries and the burger is so good . I also like the buns they use so yummy. Fries are delicious and not soggy at all . Everything is freshly made. The staff is friendly and they keep the restaurant clean. I've ordered the garlic fries before and they taste great.

Nutella Shake

This place has some good burgers! I'm so happy it's down the street from me and I don't have to make a far drive to get a nice tasting burger. *The staff that took our order were pretty nice and understood everything we wanted or didn't want on our burgers. *This location is always clean, and I love that they tend to decorate on theme for the coming holiday. *The food was fresh and hot, and came out to us fairly quick. These burgers are so good and they're pretty big! They have a great taste and are really up there on good burgers list lol The Nutella shake is so yummy too! It wasn't too thick so it was drinkable and it wasn't overly sweet but you can definitely get the Nutella taste! This is definitely a place worth trying!

Cookies and cream shake

I am so glad this came to my neighborhood because my wife and I used to drive to the Humble location for burgers. Hands-down is one of the best burger places in Houston. I am glad they are trying to put their footprint down so people could taste these wonderful burgers that are homemade.

Shoe leather disguised as a chicken sandwich.

Burgers are decent, but if you enjoy eating shoe leather, order the Hippo chicken -- disgusting. I tried eating the chicken sandwich, but just couldn't stomach it. Store refused to refund my money which was unbelievable! I'll never return.

What a relief to go in a place that sells seafood, but you don't end up smelling like seafood!…read more Wheew! Most LJS's reek of old seafood grease. They just scream dingy and dirty, but really wanting some seafood without paying an arm and leg, I decided to stop here--especially since the LJS/Taco Bell combo had received 5 stars. Parking is incredibly spacious along with a drive thru, but remember--this is an express location. Some of the items you may see at other stand alone stores may not be available. However, from my observation, the menu was just as diverse as any other LJS I've been to. The only concern I had was if they offered the same specials as the standalone LJSs. I saw no window advertisement on the store, so I waited patiently to ask the crew member about a televised special. I was delighted to know that they did. I ordered my food and took in the scenery of the restaurant which is quite inviting. If I hadn't had school work to complete that night, I would have dined in. Even the restroom stalls are clean, spacious, and well stocked. One of my favorite areas of the restaurant is the condiments bar where they allow you to get as much ketchup, malt vinegar, cocktail sauce, etc you desire. Now, I'm not saying take two fist fulls and make these people have to fill their bins every 10 minutes, but when you dine in, you shouldn't have to get up and wait for items such as ketchup and forks. I think most of us are quite capable of doing so without stealing a restaurant blind for extra forks and spoons. Only drawback is the location. Getting out of this place headed towards the freeway will involve some creative driving. Quite busy little section with a bunch of businesses smashed into a block or two in Wallisville causes traffic in the area most of the time. In any case, if you find yourself in the area, this LJS should appease your dining needs.

Best seafood I have ever had. Straight off the gulf and they are pure hard workers. Some of the…read morebest grilled salmon I have ever had.

Finally we were seated...I was noticing the hostess did acknowledge another party several times smiling and chatting as we waited for someone to notice we been just sitting there. We are non white and ugh this is Baytown, smh. Finally realized this might be the reason! I must say it's EXPENSIVE for cold/ bad food and Horrible SERVICE. We stood waiting for a table about 6 mins or so while the hostess was passing food to other patrons/ and chatting . Finally she the hostess attended in seating my self and three others. She was not polite looked at us pissed off and seemed agitated. I must add we were the only ones in line and it was not crowded. OK , so We were finally seated. It took 20 mins or so before our order was taken. We waited for 45 minutes for our food to be given, and it was cold, not even warm! I asked the hostess also waitresses helper , for an item, yes the one who seated us ... she rolled her eyes and sighed. Clear agitation/frustrated. I told our actual waitress that not only was the hostess not hospitable (RUDE) but our food was cold after the long wait they were supposed to be cooking it. It didn't arrive hot. She said we can reheat the food and the hostess is just overwhelmed. How do you take that out on the patrons... I am paying for my services, my food... and myself and my party are the ones who suffer the wrath.. So At this time as we'd been waiting a VERY long time...we ate the cold food...and accepted the fact we were just give the worst service. For $85 for crappie food and very poor service it is what it is. Just won't ever dine here again.

I even went the other day and got the 15 piece and turned it into 2 small meals. Delicious! I appreciate the fact that the tails are removed so you don't have to deal with taking them off. The shrimp is cooked nicely and the seasoning is tasty. I don't like the fact that if you order in the drive through, you then have to go park on the other side of the building and wait for them to bring your food out. Yes, cooking food takes a little time, and I appreciate the freshness of it... but if I'm the only person in line, I don't want to pull around and park to wait for you to meander out the front door with my food. I want to receive my food at the window which is why I used the drive thru in the first place. I understand that they may be trying to keep their drive thru times down or they don't want other people to be waiting as long, but that's not the customers problem. I have worked in the food service industry before so I know there are challenges, but I just don't like every single time being asked to go park and wait for my food. That's why they lost a star. Full disclosure, I have never been inside this particular location. I have only used the drive thru, so I can't speak to the the cleanliness of the inside or the bathrooms. The employees I have dealt with at the window have been very kind and helpful which I appreciate. I used to frequent Long John Silver's when I was younger. Those little crispy bits have been fought over by my sister and I many times growing up. They're still a favorite and I think probably one of the most iconic things about Long John Silver's in the first place. The fried fish filets are still just as good as they always have been, but now with the grilled options it's even better because there's something for (almost) everyone. If you like sea food but want something fast and affordable, I'd say try it out.

Disgusting! Found a piece of hair in my food, and the two rude employees didn't even bother to…read moregreet me when I walked in. Just stood there with an attitude like I was a problem. Never eating here again!

Ordered a 2-omelette Shasta Veggie Scramble with no sides because I wasn't in the mood for a side…read moreand bread. It had cut up veggies and cheese and it actually wasn't bad. I had read some reviewers stating that the food was bland, but my guess is because they are so used to very seasoned/salty foods. I, however, eat fairly healthy and rarely eat out so this was actually not too bad. It wasn't salty and within my ballpark of what I would normally eat at home. The rest of my party enjoyed their meals as well with one having bacon and hash browns, others having eggs with cheese, and pancakes. They had also stated that the coffee was delicious. The waitress was very nice and helpful. The inside of the restaurant is what you would expect from a diner. Not overly decorated, but seating was comfortable. The restaurant also has a shop where you can purchase stuffed bears and desserts, such as cream pies. I was tempted to try one, but thought maybe at another time. Hopefully will return again in the future to try another dish like a sandwich.
