Papas cheeseburger
Sarah G.

Wanted to try a new burger spot and decided to check out Pappas Burger after seeing so many people praise it. I ordered the Pappas Cheeseburger with sweet potato fries for curbside pickup, but when I arrived, my food had already gotten cold even though I was early. I called to let them know, and they were super apologetic and immediately prepared a fresh burger and a new batch of fries for me. I really appreciated how they handled it, and I ended up enjoying both the burger and the fries!

Came here after our cruise, my partner has been here but not me and the kids. Get here early, because it gets really packed in there. You order at the front and they sit you and they drop off the food. My burger was delicious. I got buffalo sauce on the side and omg so good with fries. The kids got strawberry and vanilla milkshake and both said it was tasty. The service was amazing and you pay at the end after your done eating. Overall, this place is great. I would recommend this place.

This has been our go to spot for premium burgers for years! I can't believe it's been seven years since I've done a review but nothing's changed. The service is still top-notch and they're serving some of the best burgers in town. These are the best burgers in town bottom line.! I did the review today because our waitress Zan and the new manager Yvanna did an outstanding job today! The place was extremely packed but damn doing such a great job we were able to get sat down and our food came out quickly. I've never seen this pack. They did such an amazing job, the entire staff. This is what prompted me to write the review. Everyone knows Pappas burger has the best burgers in town. Bottom line. But I wanted to highlight the customer service today. Zan and the manger Yvanna are simply top notch! Great food and great customer service!

We were in the Galleria and craving a burger, so we decided to try Pappa's Burger-best decision we made today. Wife and I both got the cheeseburger, and it was one of the best we have had in Houston. Service was great! Glad we got there when we did. When we left there was a line waiting to be sat. If you are in the area craving a burger, it's worth the wait.

Chile Cheese Queso Philly Cheeseburger

Stopped on here for a birthday dinner for the gf and was pleasantly surprised. I have had Pappas Burger previously via pickup and it was fairly good, but in person is so much better. The atmosphere is like a cozy older burger joint with decent music and TVs on for entertainment. Staff was super friendly and helpful with menu. The freshness of all the food and ingredients were great. The queso and chips were great!! I ate majority of them prior to getting my food and finished after eating my meal as well. The Nashville hot sandwich could be a bit spicier and is about a 5/10 on the spice scale. The one thing I did not like in the meal was the slaw. Not enough sauce, way too crunchy, feels like just eating cut up cabbage. The fries and ranch were also delicious. Gf ordered the Philly Cheesesteak burger and was her second time, and same thing, a great burger in person. She was able to swap for sweet potato fries as well and enjoyed the whole meal. For her birthday the waiter was able to offer a free dessert and she choose the handspun vanilla shake which was delicious. Overall, outside of the coleslaw, amazing experience and will definitely go back to Pappas Burger.

Chicken Cobb Sandwich

This is my first time visiting this restaurant, and I was quite impressed with the quality of the Food, the service in the overall quickness from ordering to receiving my food. The ambience is more of a casual diner setting. It was packed in there for a Sunday evening. Al burgers will cook me well and I ordered a burger and added an egg and bacon with some grilled onions. Also ordered onion rings and a sweet tea. The sweet tea is not overly sweet. You can actually taste the tea. The onion rings were really crispy and flavorful. They're the shoestring size on your ring so you got a good crisp and onion and every bite. The burger was better than what I expected in the size of it was so huge. I could not finish my food. I highly recommend to try this place if you have not tried it before you will not be disappointed with items.

Nickel Burger with Sweet Potato Fries!
Roxann S.

We love Pappas Burgers! This is by far one of the best burgers you will find in Houston! (And that's saying ALOT!) It's my husbands favorite food, and this is his favorite place for a burger. We went for his birthday recently and they did not disappoint. It's a cool Diner type vibe with a relaxed feel! It is counter service, but they are at your beck and call every minute. A server is in charge of your table when you are seated. The chips and queso are so delicious as well as the fried pickles too! If you're in the mood for this type of food, don't look any further! Excellent place!

Always great burgers. I hadn't been there in years but no complaints. Service was a bit slow but the burgers and sweet potato fries were tasty. It was very busy for lunch. Now you order in front, grab Seat and they confirm your order at the table, kind of felt like double ordering, but I was there for the food! It was very loud and had TVs playing sports, kind of a very easy going vibe.

DELICIOUS. IF YOU WANT A QUALITY BURGER PLEASE GO HERE!!! Now the cheeseburger was $17.95 but it was huge and very good. The fries were cooked perfectly and we had a good time here

I love the Burgers from Pappas BBQ so I had to finally check out the Pappas Burgers restaurant. I went simple with the Cheeseburger but let me tell you this burger packed a punch with flavor, you can't go wrong with steak based burgers, apparently they source their beef from next door at Pappas bros steak house. Our server Valentine was excellent he explained everything about the restaurant and the menu and had our drink refills on par. We will definitely be back.

Do you offer curbside service?

Yes, they do.

Is there a drive thru?

No, there is not a drive thru, you must go inside to pickup or curbside.

Why are the prices so high?

Considering it is a Pappas restaurant, they use top quality and fresh ingredients. The same reason 5 guys is expensive. They deliver large portions with unlimited sauces/ingredients. Want extra blue cheese crumbles? Free. Want a large side of ranch… 

Are the burgers grilled on a flat top or over a flame/charcoal grill?

On a flat surface

Super popular burger spot in Houston - but is it worth the hype?…read more It is a build your own burger concept with fast service. Food comes out quickly and you are able to modify it however you want! There are coloring sheets for children and wifi. Lots of seating to eat (both indoor and outdoor). There is a soda fountain and water that is self serve. Definitely a place to hang out with friends/family and grab a quick bite to eat. loved the SWEET SOURDOUGH as the bun since it was slightly sweet and had a nice squishy like chew. The sourdough element really gives it that tug that I love in bread. the patties are thin, lacy, and smashed. Nicely salty and seasoned. for the sauce I would recommend the SCALLION AIOLI since it was warming and garlicy adding a really nice punch of flavor. the SWEET POTATO FRIES were a delicious side (crisp, piping hot, tasty). Overall I have not much to knock burgerchan on - besides their lack of lettuce wraps as an option haha but they do offer your burger on a bed of lettuce. they also have super fun unique milkshakes like vietnamese coffee, black sesame, etc (I'd try that next time). lots of sides and protein patty options in case you don't eat beef. they also have chicken, turkey, and falafel.

Was gonna hate on this place but was pleasantly surprised. 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. The burger itself is cooked surprisingly well, though I would probably go with the classic brioche bun next time rather than their suggested sourdough (felt more like a toasted sandwich) bread. 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

I rarely get the chance (or give myself permission) to indulge in a proper smash burger, so when I…read moresaw people casually walking around POST Houston with this thing in hand, curiosity got the best of me. I went with the Double Good Burger at Johnny Good Burger, and honestly... it was surprisingly good. Perfectly smashed patties with those crispy edges, juicy inside, and well-balanced flavors that didn't feel overcomplicated. Sometimes simple just works--and this definitely did. The fries deserve their own shoutout: extra crispy, hot, and downright addictive. No soggy sadness here. I kept telling myself "just one more" until the tray was mysteriously empty. 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.

I wanted to LOVE this place because it had the "Good Burger" reference in the name. However, it was…read moreone of those good for one time places. Service was mid, and I wish the workers gave as much effort as they put on their phone to customers. We ordered to-go, yet lacked necessities like napkins & silverware for multiple meals. The patty melt burger was tasty & the tangy secret sauce leveled up the entire burger (highly recommend). 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.

My husband's chicken club sandwich with regular fries was also delicious! We got the order within 10 mins, didn't take too long. They have big patio seating, clean indoor seating, some arcades to keep the kiddos (or me) busy while waiting for the food. There are plenty of self-service condiments as well. Clean bathrooms, good amount of parking. This is one of my new favorite place for burgers!
