Average service. Great taste and super generous portion sizes (enough to share.) Bread is definitely fresh made and meat is definitely Angus beef. Definitely add to your list of local spots. read more

I have been to the Fraz and Grand Lakes locations. I ate a burger at the Franz location, got sick with diarrhea and vomit, my husband had diarrhea after eating one of their chicken wraps. I really should have known better after walking in and it was warm and muggy, and the bathroom was kinda ran down grimy. Finally decided to give JLB another chance but decided to go to a different location. Walked in and was warm and muggy, the young lady at the register said she could turn on the fans, I was like yeah great idea . I went to the bathroom to wash my hands while my daughter and husband finished ordering, I came out and told her never mind we were not eating there and that the bathroom was disgusting. Also, I looked at the fans and thank goodness she did not turn them on! The dust was so thick and would have ended up getting all over everyone eating. What is it with the Katy locations A/C and bathrooms?! Is every JLB like this? I'm just trying to find a solid burger place since our move here. I'm just gonna stick to Old School Burger from here on out. read more

The Cajun fried fish and shrimp is really good. Wish I had taken a picture but I devoured it so fast that getting a picture never crossed my mind. I've also had their burgers which are always fresh and good. Great service as well. read more

great service and delicious burger! It seemed a little disorganized when we went in to order at the counter but, in fairness, we arrived around 230pm so perhaps some staff had been cut due to lunch rush being over. Food was great, the people on the line were very friendly and we wouldn't hesitate to return and try other menu items. read more

I decided to give this place a shot ! I stay near by so wanted to support what seemed like a mom and pop shop! I got the fish sandwich. It was 7.8/10 . I ordered Cajun but I don't think they gave me Cajun !No season was on there and no spice to it I love the crispness , the tartar sauce and the fries were great ! The avocado was fresh as well ! The inside was very clean Service was good . I'll double back again and try the regular burgers . The only con I will say is the prices are high . 31 for 2 ppl is a bit much . He messed up our order for one so we had to pick all the things we asked not to have on there off ... GO SUPPORT THOUGH read more

Overall a great experience. I was in the area and have been wanting to try this place out. Plenty of parking spaces in the plaza (for now until more businesses open), clean area both inside and out. Friendly service but seems like it's just one guy running the restaurant, whom I believe is the owner. Good foot traffic restaurant where I see more pickup orders during the day than dining-in. Avocado burger with fries and drink was delicious. It's clean kind of burger. Not oily and made with real angus beef. I like their sour dough bun and how huge it is! Steak fries are delicious and not overly salty - just the way I like it. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Their chicken wrap was also a nice pick. Crispy chicken with plenty of lettuce and jalapeño. A tad watery but not bad, reminds me of deli shops in NY and MA. Would I come again? Definitely. I even recommended it to friends later on in the day who also live in this area. In case anyone is looking for a job, they are now hiring! read more

Food was hot and not greasy at all. It was delicious and flavorful. I would suggest ask for tartar sauce when ordering so that you don't forget like I did. read more

We tried this restaurant establishment today for take out. I had the double cheeseburger and my wife had the bacon cheeseburger with house cut fries. 1/3 pound angus patties were huge and accompanied with an in-house soft fluffy potato bun with cheese baked on the top. Very flavorful and filling, I left off any sides so, to enjoy the taste of the beef. The burgers are a little bit on the pricer side however, they are well worth it in terms of quality and size. They have another location in Fulshear where we have dined in before. I was truly satisfied that all the food was still hot and fresh when my wife arrived home. 4.6 miles round trip. Stop by and try them out, you won't be disappointed! read more

First things first - the pictures do not do it justice, the portions are GIGANTIC. The burgers are the size of the entire full-size to-go box (you can't even fit fries in the same box, they take up the whole thing), you are 100% getting the quantity for the price. I really wanted to like this place; however, the taste was just not there for me. Average fries that don't beat chick-fil-a, while the patty melt and burgers were large, the taste doesn't beat whataburger (which would be my burger benchmark for the cost). The food taste itself is somewhere in between Sonic and Whataburger even though I believe their ingredients are fresher. Ordered: Chill-cheese waffle fries, Patty Melt, Angus Beef Burger Would I Recommend to Try? No Would I Return? No Ambiance- 5/10 Food Taste- 5/10 Service- 8/10 Date Worthy- 3/10 Value- 8/10 read more

I've heard great things about this place and we finally took a trip for lunch. As soon as we walked into the restaurant, my daughter noticed that it looked just like Joy Love Burger. I confirmed this with the guy behind the counter that this is what JLB stands for. Instead of going with the huge burgers that we normally order at JLB, I had the fried pork, my daughter had the wings, and my wife had a chicken wrap. My wife enjoyed her chicken wrap, and I liked the fried pork, but the wings were a little bland. Portions are large, I have two big pieces of fried pork and took leftovers back. I do like the fact that you get a small salad, fries, and a drink with a combo order. You can also order different dressings and sauces when waiting for your meal. The barbecue sauce was good for dipping my fried pork into. Self-serve drinks (Pepsi products). They will bring your food and sauces to your table. Good service. Great little lunch place. We may return next time for their famous burgers. read more

I made mistake on my order and called the store right away to see if they can fix it. The person on the phone (rude) said she can't fix it and I have to do it on DoorDash. There's no way to edit an order after you paid for it. It was just an easy fix. My other orders didn't come with any condiments. read more

A long review from someone who had given them 5 stars in the past and always enjoyed my experience there. We are very good customer who eat here a lot (take-out, delivery and dine-in). However, it just takes one truly bad experience, to lose a good customer, so I'm changing my review to a 1-star and won't be back. The true test of a great restaurant is how they treat their customers when things aren't perfect, which happened to us. We are in our 80's and my husband is a veteran with advanced cancer, so it's not easy for us to dine-in as much as we used to, so we were really looking forward to eating there and not having it delivered. On June 6th, the girl at the counter was inattentive. We aren't very mobile to get up and get items ourselves when we are being ignored. We ordered three dinners, including fish dinners and asked a couple of times for tartar sauce. Finally we asked our granddaughter who was with us, grabbed what we needed from the counter. However, at this point, our food was no longer super hot. It would have all still been fine, but our shrimp/fish dinners were very greasy on this visit and my granddaughters fish was not cooked all they way through, so she didn't eat it. Not wanting to embarrass my granddaughter, I took the fish to the counter to show them (yep, walker and all). The cook came out and loudly told me in front of other customers (so much for not embarrassing my granddaughter) that is was cooked fine and we just let it get cold (it was cold because she didn't want to eat raw fish). When I asked for the manager, he said he was the manager. When I asked for the owner, who we always have had lovely interactions with, he said he was the owner's son and then told me the fish was cooked just fine and he would be glad to go back to the kitchen to get a raw fish to show me what a one looks like. It was extremely disrespectful. At this point, I suggested he just refund the raw fish portion of the meal, which he refused. So I went to go back to my table and said that's fine, that we would just pay and take our business elsewhere, at which point he tossed $9 on the counter at me. It was incredibly disrespectful. Every restaurant has an off meal now and then, but when a customer shares a bad experience, it's a great opportunity to problem solve what went wrong. Was the oil too old or not hot enough? Did it not cook long enough? But that didn't happen. I thought his father (the owner) would be mortified by such poor behavior and I didn't want to post a negative review (so much for that), so I called several times to speak to him. I was told 3 or 4 times he was too busy or not there. I tried one last time and he was very polite, but rather than problem solve or apologize for an "off" meal, disrespectful behavior or bad experience, he offered excuses for the undercooked fish, poor service, and his sons' behavior. Even worse, he told me that he had gotten the messages, but was too busy running a business to call me back. So now I understand. It comes from the top. They have enough business they no long need to stand behind quality or customer enjoyment, and they can be disrespectful to an 85 year-old couple, who decided to treat their granddaughter from California to their favorite restaurant. They will do just fine without our business and life goes on. Time to go find a new favorite fish and chips restaurant! read more

The food was good and came out pretty quick however the reason for the lower rating is due to the lack of enthusiasm from the people working there. My son made the comment that the workers seemed not very happy to be there, he said they didn't even greet us in. He is 10! Also their trash was full and over filled, the store was not very clean. ( Soda fountain needed taken apart and cleaned, black dirty floors and lots of things out of order) The place was full and I was not the only one to notice as some of the customers were complaining as well. It needs some attention and a smile from people goes a long way. Especially when the foods not cheap and a tip is asked for. You clear your own table, get your own drink and silverware. read more

By far the best hamburger I've ever eaten! The help was friendly and the place was clean!! Highly recommend.

Burgers are great. Steak sandwich not so much. Tasted like the steakum you get in the grocery store. Would not order this again. But I would give the burger a ten. Big and delicious. read more

Portions are large here so order carefully! I ordered the JLB cheeseburger. It is the definition of a burger. The buns are made every day at JLB and I can confirm they are soft and fresh. The lettuce and pickles don't slip out of the burger when you take a bite into it. The patty is juicy and not burnt. I also ordered fries, which have a delicious flavor akin to UK style "fish and chips." They are crispy, not overly salty, with a hint of parmesan and paprika - Yum! I will always recommend JLB for a true cheeseburger experience. read more

I decided to try this place out based on the reviews. I ordered 6 wings and picked them up. The wings were fresh and hot. My only complaint is that it seems that they were cooked in burnt or dirty grease. I will try this place out again in hopes of my 1st experience being a one off situation. read more

They really do have a great burger and fries. The burger is large, well seasoned and well made. The fries were perfect! Crispy on the outside and hot and steaming in the middle. The service was good, the dining area is a little small but adequate. read more

I went today for the first time and the food and service was awesome!! 10 stars!! The guy working was so nice and didn't mind getting us the sauces we asked for or our loud and crazy kids.

My first time at JLB and I enjoyed the food. I ordered to go and I had the kids hamburger combo along with the Cajun style wings. The order was correct and ready very quickly. The burger was more than enough food. My husband had the cheeseburger combo and didn't finish his burger. Very tasty but large. The fries were crispy and really good. The wings were also a delight. I had the Cajun style with some Buffalo sauce on the side. The wings were very crispy and had a nice flavor. I would certainly go back. read more

My son and I had the burgers and the were huge portion sizes and seasoned well. The bacon and bun were also delicious!

Everyone knows their hamburgers are great, so of course, I tried their fish & chips. Also great! Perfectly fried pollock, terrific french fries and a hush puppy. Modest interior, but just great food. Careful how much you order; they are not stingy. I got 2.5 meals out of a 3-piece order. read more

The way the light hit this burger I knew it was gonna be good! It was like a harp was playing as the waitress brought it to my table. Everything about it was delicious! The bun may look like a lot but it was really light and airy, like it got it's softness from the clouds above. The patty was seasoned just right and everything was just the right proportion; lettuce, tomato, cheese, and mayonnaise and mustard. I don't do onions so I had this made without them. The fries were sprinkled with nothing less than deliciousness! And eating there, instead of getting it to go meant everything was fresh fresh! I'm a fast eater and my food was still warm to the last bites. Only thing left over were a few pleasantries of lettuce that managed to escape my grasp. This place is over an hour away from where I reside, but I'm definitely going to find a reason to get back over here at some point. Well worth the drive! read more

We went to JLB Eatery on Peek for lunch today after seeing it in this group. Very good decision...my husband had a HUGE bacon cheeseburger. Daughter had a small steak fries--she wondered just how big the large was. I had a shrimp wrap and I've decided my new favorite shrimp po boy is now a shrimp wrap. The tots were also good--none of that acrid aftertaste tots sometimes have. Highly recommend this place. read more
