    Old fashioned hamburger
    Calondra B.

    This location is one of many in the Houston area. It's small with no frills, delicious meal orders are brought to your table by friendly staff, and a definite neighborhood favorite. Parking in front of restaurant located in the shopping strip. You'll feel right at home here. Clean one person women's restroom.

    Chili Cheese Burger
    Brian J. R.

    What a burger! (Nope, can't say that.) For real, this is one of my top burgers. I always get the chilli cheeseburger and it's never let me down. My daughter got a standard cheeseburger and rated it 86/10. Do not ask me to make sense of that rating. She loved it though. The food is made fresh to order fast and the dark wood and kitsch of the decor reminds me of an old tavern mixed with an uncle's den. Always awesome.

    a bacon and lettuce sandwich

    Yes, I'm giving this kinda divey burger joint 5 stars... only because I can! So close to my house I'm not sure why I've never been here, but now I know and I'll be back... I ordered a bacon burger with guacamole. First, the burger patty is pressed on the flat top to give in a nice crust, but it's not overcooked. Still had some Pink, as it should. The bacon was generous, and cooked perfectly and crispy.. and the guacamole was just how I'd make mine. The bun was fresh, and grilled, both sides.... came wrapped in paper. Franch fries came out hot and generous, and ready for salt. My only negative is the ketchup definitely isn't Heinz, but it's fine. I did get food envy when I saw an order of onion rings come out... , I guess next time.

    Small mom & pop burger shop. Owners and employees are friendly. The atmosphere is quaint and homey with signs and memorabilia on every wall. The food is fantastic. I've been here many times and never been disappointed. The burgers are big, messy and absolutely delicious. The fries are perfectly done, thick straight cut. I personally like to add a bit more salt on top as they tend to be slightly under salted for my taste. If you stop by Miller's be sure to grab plenty of napkins, and come with a big appetite. You're gonna need 'em. Four star, not five because of cleanliness. The place is by no means filthy, but the tables at times can feel a little grimy.

    7-12-2014 We've eaten a burger here once a week for years.  In our opinion Stomps and then this place have the best burgers in the area, but Stomps is too far away for routine eating. Tastes are all different but I don't like their chili, so I don't get their Frito Pie which I love or their hotdog.   7-8-17 Update:  When you eat at the same place week-after-week year-after-year you burn out.  So we've been getting our weekly burger at Burger Nation for more than a year.  Burger Nation's burger is good but we decided to come back and try one here again.  These are better.  As a result, we've returned here for our burger. 5-28-18 Update: Pop Top burgers is their competitor.  We now alternate between Miller's and Pop Top. 2-29-2021 Update: We no longer go to Burger Nation. And, we don't go often to Pop Top anymore, mostly because they moved and are too far. Our new competitor to Miller's is Mia's Table. They make a good burger and we've been going there more than here lately. ___ We've Eaten Out Every Meal for 30+ years

    Millers is my go to place for burgers in the area. Food is great and consistent. The place is quiet and has plenty of room for the amount of people I bring, typically four to eight.

You pick your own ingredients similar to…read more5 Guys, and they have some nice Asian twists (like the green scallion aoili and kimchi relish, which I recommend) you can add that help change up the flavor, but is still distinctly a burger.

They also have a daily math problem that you can solve for some candy which is literally so Asian -_- brings me back to high school math class

To start off with a positive, I thought the falafel patty had a really great taste and was absolutely the highlight of the burger. But outside of that the burger and the toppings I ordered just didn't work as well as I would've liked. I ordered my burger with mushrooms and sauteed onions, both toppings I know I absolutely love from making burgers at home and from other spots, but neither added much. At first I was worried that the falafel was overpowering them both but upon eating them by themselves they just lacked taste. We also got the scallion aioli on the burger and I never got a hint of it at any point. All in all, the burger was very much mediocre outside of the patty. We also got fries with the burger and while they absolutely had some potential they were extremely over seasoned. Any appreciation for the seasonings in a vacuum was immediately overshadowed by how salty they were. We also ordered the Sambal Mayo as a dipping sauce and while it did help subdue the insane salt level and overall tasted quite good, upon writing this review I found out by looking at their online menu that it contained some amount of shrimp. This information is nowhere to be seen on the ordering slip and wasn't mentioned when I handed it over to the person working at the cash register. And while I definitely accept some level of responsibility for not doing my due diligence and asking or letting them know of my dietary restrictions, it's still an extremely frustrating thing to have happen as both a vegetarian and someone with a mild shellfish allergy. If for whatever reason the online menu is out of date or I missed an obvious indication of it containing shrimp somewhere I am more than happy to edit my review.

All in all, a very satisfying burger experience. If you're in the mood for a legit smash burger and happen to be wandering POST Houston, this one's absolutely worth stopping for.

The burgers are big enough to share if you are doing a burger & fries because as you can see in the photos, it is so much food, definitely paying for quantity over quality here.
