JC's Classic Slider w/ Onion Rings
Andrew M.

Every time I come I get the two Sliders. I LOVE the Sliders because it is the perfect amount of food wile I can still eat the amazing Onion Rings.

1. JC's Classic Burger
Ricardo J.

We came here today looking for a good greasy burger post-Saturday night overindulgence. The atmosphere and the service were good, but to be honest, the sides were better than the burgers. The regular fries were well cooked and came out straight from the fryer. The onion rings were very peppery and the batter was delicious. The batter didn't stay on easily, but it was well worth the struggle. The spicy curly fries were perfectly cooked, and also came out piping hot. All in all, a decent experience, but not one to run back to. It is nice, however, that they have good bar and a great atmosphere, both of which are very rare in Coppell.

Killer Burger
Santanu S.

Before arriving at the restaurant, I noticed the online menu did not have a cheeseburger. I was prepared to customize the JC's Classic by adding cheese. Fortunately, I noticed the signage for the Killer Burger, a triple-cheese bacon burger with their special sauce. When I also ordered the Nutella shake, she had to check with the kitchen first. So, I did not expect problems with my order. After a significant wait, I wondered if my shake would be delivered with my food. Just then, another employee notified me their milkshake machine was out of order. The news surprised me because the other employee had checked with the kitchen. Since I had no drink, I went back to get a refund and order a soda. After a short wait, the same employee who took my order returned to the register. She told me my credit card was not required, so I will see if a refund eventually appears on my statement. The Killer Burger was decent but also messy. Although I enjoyed the blend of the Swiss, American and Pepper Jack, the sauce hid their taste. The bacon strips would definitely please those who prefer theirs very crispy. By the time I had my last bite, half of the sauce dripped all over my hand.

The works
Cat N.

I got the works burger with jalapeño, mushrooms, bacon and American cheese well done. The burger was big. I asked for well done fries and everything came out good just like how I asked. The fries were good Service was good and location was convenient! Would come back again

Onion rings!
Pamela S.

Great local restaurant! Friendly staff and good food! Especially tonight the onion rings! Lots of fun's games to keep the kiddos biliary and lots of TV's to keep up to date on sports!

The Works
Robert C.

Went here for lunch today and the burger was awesome. I love that the onion rings appear to be hand battered. I had the works which has mushrooms and Jalapeños on it. Very delicious and will definitely go back.

I was absolutely craving a great burger and shake for lunch and didn't want to drive too far. So I pull out the Yelp, pointed to Coppell and JC's popped up. Then jumped in the car and off I went! It was pretty easy to find in Coppell. I wasn't crowded and was early in the lunch period (around 11:20 am) I had already looked at the menu and ordered the Classic Burger w/ American cheese, fries and a chocolate shake. Paid by card (appreciated the clean pen/dirty pen process for COVID safety). Then I played Yelper and looked about the place as I waited on my order. They have a nice patio, a game room, a giant dinosaur, and LOTS of Big Screens on the walls. Tables of varying heights, a bar and lots of booths. The Bar serves adult beverages and with the near by booths, looks like a great place for an after work get together (when COVID is not an issue). The Game room looked like something kids to young adults would enjoy. My order, hmmmm. Not a big crowd, so all should be great, right? The hot food (burger and fries) came out but shake wasn't made. The counter person dumped in the shake base into the machine and was unsure how to make a shake. 3.5 minutes later, the woman in back made a chocolate shake. It was more of cold chocolate milk. The Hershey Chocolate syrup she put in was a little too much. The burger and fries were well packed. The burger was quite good and the lettuce, tomato and pickles were of good quality. The bun was fantastic! The fries were not that great. Thus 1/3 of the order was really good, 1/3 (fries) were okay and 1/3, the shake was terrible. 2 Stars may be generous.

Nooner slider
Trinh T.

JC's Burger Bar is a regional burger franchise that focuses on quality burgers, shakes, and now brews. There are several locations throughout DFW & this location has a full bar. Add some TVs, great service, and you have a winning combination....on paper. My Overall Rating - 3 Stars (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Return) Atmosphere - Located in a strip mall in Coppell, JC's is nice, open and clean. It's counter service, so you order at the counter, grab a seat, and wait for your order. Bonus - this location has a full bar with plenty of TVs. If JC's is trying to create an atmosphere for game day, they have succeeded. 1 Star. Service - Fantastic people here. We had a large group and even though it is counter service the staff checked on us & even refilled our drinks and beers. 1 Star. Food - I wanted to love the burgers here, but unfortunately, I only sort of liked it. I ordered the Nooner & The Works in slider form. Maybe I should have ordered the normal size burger because the patty was very thin & dry. The Nooner had a fried egg which helped give the patty some much needed moisture but both sliders were a letdown. Also, the buns for the sliders reminded me of dinner roll buns. Great at Thanksgiving but the yeast rolls weren't my taste. Next time I'll try the normal burger. 1/2 Star Will I Return? - Maybe - and if I do, I'll order one of those awesome looking shakes and a full size burger. The atmosphere & service are great so I feel a return is needed. 1/2 Star My Yelp Rating Scale (Sum of all parts): 1 Star - Atmosphere - Is it a cool dive? Perhaps an upscale place? No matter the type, atmosphere plays a big part and I'll give a star if I like it or thinks it has great charm. 1 Star - Service - You can have a great meal with bad service. But that's also what can make a five star joint drop to four. It's important to the dining experience that service is great and on point. 2 Stars - Food - I'll award up to two stars for the food, since this is the main reason we dine out. Sometimes the extra star is given for value, but it's really all about the food. 1 Star - Will I come back? - If I know for a fact I'll return, I'll give this a star. A place has to make an impression for me to return. Each Category can be given up to 1 star except food (2 stars) because I consider all these categories important to the overall dining experience. I will sum them up to provide my final Yelp score.

Spinach Salmon Salad and onion rings
Dana K.

I've been to this location many times for the bar atmosphere, but this was the first time I've brought coworkers for lunch. All three of us were happy with our orders. Salad was good sized and salmon portion on top generous. Onion rings are hand dipped and always a winner here. Both burgers were cooked the way they asked and sweet potato fries cooked to a perfect crunch. Coworkers asked why I hadn't brought them here before and asked for it to be added to our lunch rotation of places to eat. It's a nice atmosphere, clean and a top notch staff. Coppell needs to hang on to this place and we'll definitely be repeat customers.

The Nooner with Onion Rings
Cassie B.

The burger and onion rings are very tasty. If you want a quiet atmosphere, come around 5pm. People start coming in after 6pm. It's a nice place and they keep it very clean!

8. Jalapeno Sausage and Cheddar Burger
Brandon L.

Very much enjoyed this place! Looked fairly new when I went and had a cool vibe to the whole place. Lots of TVs and a couple of outside games to enjoy. Patties are fresh, which make the burgers much more delicious. What put this place over the top for me is the fact that they had curly fries, and on top of that spicy curly fries! Not many places have curly fries nowadays. Good place if you're in the area.

Side salad
Richard S.

The place is a very lively and energetic place to get a burger if you are in the mood for something a bit more exciting than the run of the mill burger joint. The interior is new and clean. There are plenty of seating options including booths, large tables and outdoor seating. There is a bar on one side and a few games in the back. You walk in and order at the counter then seat yourself. The food is delivered to your table. The drinks are self serve and include the typical sodas and iced tea. FYI you need to get cup tops from the cashier, not at the drink area, as I eventually found out. There is a complimentary ice cream machine . The menu has a lot of variety including beef burgers, turkey, chicken, salads, tacos, and the usual sides. The beef burger was Ok. It was overcooked a bit and lacked seasoning, in my opinion. I selected grilled onions and grilled jalapeno for an upcharge but there were hardly any on the burger. The turkey burger was better but be aware that it is different than the typical turkey patty : it seems fresh ground and has a good amount of seasoning. If you want a more clean taste then go for the grilled chicken. The cashier was friendly but he didn't know the size of the burger patty and he didn't realize that chicken soup was on the menu.

a sign for the restaurant
Don R.

I've known about JC's Burger Bar in Coppell for a while, but hadn't gotten over that way to give it a try. I finally made time to try it out and wasn't disappointed, but I was surprised at how much more they had to offer than the typical burger joint. The menu offers a variety of specialty burgers (including a gluten free bun option!) as well as appetizers, chicken sandwiches, soups, salads, tacos and shakes, so there's likely something for everyone. The restaurant is larger than most burger joints, including a number of outdoor tables, a bar area and multiple televisions to watch the game. There's also free self-serve soft-serve as well as a small arcade in a separate room in the back. If you're looking for something new and have little ones, don't let the bar scare you off, as it's definitely more a restaurant vibe than bar. On this occasion, I had the opportunity to sample the Jalapeno Sausage & Cheddar Burger and the BBQ Bacon Burger. We also opted for the onion rings. Their burger is a single patty - probably 1/4 pound with good flavor, that you can tell is fresh-cooked, and the bun and toppings are all good. While soft, the bun didn't fall apart, which I appreciate. Although the burgers were good, what really won me over were the Onion Rings! Crisp, not chewy, and a crunchy, peppery, well-seasoned breading. These are probably my favorite onion rings that I've had in the entire Metroplex. I may be back just for a plate of onion rings and a beer - be a good gameday snack! There are also so many other items on the menu - including some pretty good-sounding shakes! - that I'll have to make my way back sometimes soon. JC's Burger Bar is definitely a place I'd suggest if you're going to be in the Coppel area and, if you're on the East side, they also have locations in Mesquite and Richaardson.

A relaxed atmosphere outside, we enjoyed the view. Our server was quick to greet us and bring us menus (though they DO have a QR menu available on every table). I asked about the beers on draft, and ordered one that was suggested (and was happy with it). We frequent this establishment, so knew what we wanted! The Brad Sham and the Bodacious Burger! We added some goat chips too! Of note, they have a rotating burger battle that is always fun to see, and try. We didn't get one this time, but am always up to try one. It makes each month an adventure in burgers! I love this place, and if you like burgers, beyond the fast food style, you will also love this place.

This was my first time here, and we had actually spied the current Burger Battle online before we arrived. It was a tough call, but Hatch chile season only comes around once a year, so we went with the "Hatch Me If You Can" burger with chiles, queso and tortilla chips. DELISH. But the real star of the show was the Cobb salad. It was loaded with goodies -- goat cheese, bacon, avocado and more -- but the absolute BEST part was the tempura battered jalapeños. WOOO-EEE. Those things were tremendous! And hot tip: there's a happy hour with $6 sangrias (I think they're called Rattlesnakes?). Whatever they're called, they were YUM. And yum again. A couple of less-great notes: the bathroom was kind of annoying. TP was out in every stall, and ladies, can we all agree that if you have to scoot back over the toilet in order to shut the stall door, the stall is too small? There is plenty of room in the bathroom, so that was a frustrating trip to the loo. Another hot tip: get the sweet potato fries! They seem to be less frequently ordered, which means you're more likely to get them hot. We were initially delivered someone else's order, and before I realized it, I did have one of their (cold) fries. Overall, a really tasty meal with some standout items. I'd definitely come back -- especially for that Cobb salad and those jalapeños!

We hate being "those people," so we turned around, got back in the car, and started searching Yelp for somewhere else to go because we honestly had no idea what to do next. We're here for a conference, and I had been SO excited to eat at Twisted Root. I lived near the Dallas location for years and have missed this place so much. Tonight, though, we were tired, hungry, and honestly at the end of our ropes after a really hard week. As we were sitting in the car trying to figure out where to go, someone who I'm assuming was the manager came out, knocked on our window, and told us to come inside. I honestly almost cried. We told him we were completely fine getting our food to go, but he insisted that we come in, sit down, and eat. The entire team was incredibly kind to us, and I don't think they could possibly know how much that small act of kindness meant in that moment. In the last seven days, we've lost two family members, and we're all reeling a little. I had to be at this conference, so I brought my husband and kiddo with me because I didn't want to leave them alone and because I thought all of us could use a little fun and togetherness. Today had actually been a good day, but it was exhausting. We got delayed leaving the hotel for dinner, and when we realized we had missed our chance to eat here, I was genuinely so disappointed. Except apparently we hadn't. I know letting a family come in five minutes before closing and serving them burgers and fries may not seem like a huge thing. But tonight, it was huge to us. We needed that burger and those fries in more ways than your team could have known. Thank you, Twisted Root. You guys have officially earned forever-favorite status with me. And please come back to the Austin area someday. But maybe think Liberty Hill/Leander/Cedar Park. Just saying. Most importantly, your Coppell team deserves ALL the love. Thank you so very much for the kindness you showed our family tonight.

I liked that they serve the veggie toppings on the side so you can customize it exactly how you want. Just a heads up: burgers are cooked medium by default unless you specify otherwise. Overall, everything tasted great, but the portion was pretty filling--I only made it through about half of my burger. Prices were reasonable as well: $11.50 for my burger and $4.50 for my side salad.
