Yummy food! Queso was okay, not my favorite. I had the Firebird and added whipped blue cheese and red onion. Blue cheese was so yummy. So was the Bandit Ranch. I wish the fresno aioli was a little spicier, but I have a pretty high tolerance for heat. Neat little place, industrial/diner feel. Great happy hour. Melody was our server. She was super sweet and helpful. read more

Sept 4, 2026 Came in from Galveston and sat at the bar. We had queso and chips. The queso had ground beef, pcs of avocado and pico --soo good I had a on the rocks margarita, didn't like the taste at all I got the "Marvin Zindler" cheeseburger; "EYE WITNESS NEWS!" (what he always used to say before his news cast began-Houston KTRK TV) RIP Marvin This burger had bacon, cheddar fried onion and jalapeño pickle chutney--medium rare. My friend had the "Bodacious" hamburger sliders, came with two. Hers had bbq sauce, a whole grilled jalapeño, smoked jalapeño mayo, bacon, crispy onion and American cheese Their beef is sourced from cattle from 44 farms in Cameron TX and when I say, those burgers were juicy and delish...THEY WERE The beef was so flavorful. We didn't see onion rings on the menu so that's why we got the queso, but as we were eating other patrons got some. I was so disappointed cuz, I wanted some. The bartender said they're not on the menu because of the fryer ...they have to do something (I can't recall) in order to make them. Oh well...EVERYTHING we ate was fantastic. The regular margarita that I got (no salt on the rocks) just was tart not smooth so I don't know if its the mix or the tequila (or both) Bartender female black hair and bartender white male VERY sweet and down to earth Support local business Support local farmers read more

This place came highly recommended to us for burgers, so a group of eight of us went there after work. There were plenty of long tables that comfortably accommodated our group. Our waitress was great. She brought us water, took our orders, brought out the food, and kept up with refills without us ever having to wave her down or wait very long. One of our coworkers has food allergies and wanted a burger, but there wasn't any allergen-bun available. He ordered the brisket chili and thought it was good, but wished it was a main meal not a side item. I ordered the Royale with Cheese without spicy ketchup, but arrived without ketchup and mustard. I found it to be really salty. I even removed the bacon, but it was still quite salty. Ketchup and mustard might balance it out. Four stars because everyone else in our group enjoyed their burgers. read more

Heard many good things about Rodeo Goat. We were so excited to try before heading to the FIFA Fan Fest. It was a hot summer day, so we opted for indoor seating. They have fun burger options, however we were quite disappointed in the quality and lack of flavor. Marvin Zindler: 6.8/10 The meat was dry and overcooked so when you bite into it, it crumbles. It needed more sauce. Inspector Clouseau: 5/10 The burger was sitting in French onion sauce which made the bun soggy. Very messy and hard to eat with your hands, had to end up eating with a knife and fork. We ordered side of fries with each burger, and opted to upgrade one to chili cheese fries. When the food was brought out, we had a side fries and a whole, large order of the Cheese Fries Surprise. However we saw a customer behind us with a small order of the cheese fries surprise. I just felt our server should have clarified the size with us. So be aware when "upgrading" your side fries. Overall, this burger joint was a let down and not for us. read more

Apparently Rodeo Goat is a Texas chain but as chains go, this is a good one. Rodeo Goat is a burger joint but on steroids, and amphetamines. The burgers and fries were phenomenal, and the toppings range from typical to insane. We had a table of 7 guys who had spent the day drinking beer and attending an Astros game, so I was slightly buzzed upon arrival. So of course we started with more beer. They had probably 15-20 brews on tap and most of them were local. Then we pretty much ordered all their fries. There were regular fries, sweet potato fries, chili cheese fries, cheese fries with jalapenos and bacon....at this point I sound like Bubba Gump. For a burger I got a Whiskey Burger. It had a blackberry jam, candied bacon, cheddar and a bourbon mustard. Delicious! All great beer drinking food. So why only 4 stars instead of 5? Well, I may have been drunk and just thought everything was great. read more

We wanted some good burgers and found great reviews here. The place seems packed all the time especially during the weekend. Plenty places to sit indoor and out. We ordered Ranch House Burger, Marvin Zinder burger, The Empire Burger and Bodacious in a bowl. As well as two side orders of fries. Healthy portions to fill hungry bellies. Burgers were cooked to liking. Mine was juicy and flavorful. Service was great our server was friendly and made sure we were taken care of.

There is a paid parking lot across the street, or you can try to find free street parking. Side note, do not leave any valuables in your car as my friend's car was broken into. When you walk into the establishment, no one will seat you, so you'll need to find a table yourself and a waiter will come by shortly after. Service was pretty good, and everything I ordered was absolutely delicious. I literally have nothing bad to say and would highly recommend giving this place a try. 1. Inspector Clouseau Burger: If you're a fan of smash patties, this is the one. The meat was incredibly tender, and the onions added so much flavor. The dipping broth on the side oddly tasted like a rich and delicious beef soup, which made it even better. 2. Fries: So crispy, flavorful, and the perfect portion size for two people to share. 3. Churro Goat Balls: The name is pretty self explanatory. They were super delicious and basically like warm, fluffy bread balls. I'm so happy I got to eat here for dinner and can't wait to come back! read more

Been to Rodeo Goat a few times now and it's easily one of the cooler burger spots in town.. Location in EaDo is great (A favorite stop around plenty of bars in the area), it was a packed house when we visited for a World cup Saturday night, high energy.. Lots of creative flavor combos and add-ons to choose from, the meats are seasoned well with a variety of sauces to choose from. Fries were just okay but they got a full bar. What's not to love? Plenty of indoor seating with high tables and some outdoor patio bars. It's a fun atmosphere and definitely a more modern/trendy vibe, and service was surprisingly very efficient considering how pack it can get. Overall, it's a fun spot to grab a burger and a drink, especially if you're looking to escape the heat while bar hopping or after a Dynamo game. Would I drive across town just for it? Probably not... But it's definitely a popular local spot for a reason, and I can see why people keep coming back. read more

Rodeo Goat - CHEESE FRIES SURPRISE - Burgers Near Me - Houston, Texas

When planning out me and my friend's itinerary, we were trying to find a food spot that would be close to Truck Yard and I just happened to come across Rodeo Goat on Maps, and it didn't disappoint! Their burger menu was great, and had many different loaded burger options, which I loved! I ended up getting the Sugar Burger which came with the patty, candied bacon, grilled peaches, caramelized onion, and jalapeño jam. The peach was a great addition and added a faint sweet touch to it. The burger also came with a huge side of fries! If you're a burger fan, I would definitely recommend this spot, because there's burger options that would satisfy anyone! It is also right next to Truck Yard, so perfect dinner spot and then you can hop next door for drinks! I also thought service overall was great, and the ambiance was very casual and relaxed. read more

Rodeo Goat - Burgers Near Me - Houston, Texas

Super good burger and ambiance. Food came out immediately, so fast service. Solid rodeo theme commemorating Houston Rodeo performances. Not a ton of beers in the draft selection, but they do have some dark ones--if you like (512)'s Pecan Porter! Smaller burger, more stuff going on flavor wise. Good things. Unexpected things... The blue cheese burger ("luv ya blue")had a strong clove and other spices in a coleslaw that was very delicate and delicious, in a brioche bun, with a really juicy beef patty. The clove was a curveball, and it was a really memorable, perhaps even bright tasting burger. read more

Always a favorite spot before or after sporting events. Great selection of burgers to appease all plates, and we don't need to talk about how good those fries are. Service is always friendly. I love the monthly battle of the burgers. Fun and creative way to make sure we keep coming back in for new menu items. My go to recommendation is the Nanny Goat Burger. Supreme. read more

$4 Moontangs ALL DAY when the Astros are playing (normally $9). Great drink that is not overly sweet. Super smooth consistency. 1/2 price fries ALL DAY every Wednesday. They have 1/2 or full orders of fries btw. The food and service were both phenomenal. Fries are fully loaded and covered is gooey cheese. Absolute guilty pleasure! The bun holds up to the burger and all its toppings. Everything tastes fresh and homemade. My only complaint is they forgot the jalapeños on my fries and my salad was also missing the hard boiled eggs. read more

During a conference my coworkers and I walked here. When we walked up we were a bit confused as to where to go because the hostess station is in the far back of the restaurant. We had a great time here as the weather was perfect to sit outside. Our waiter was great even though he disappeared after we got our food. I loved the different options of burgers and I chose the one with the blueberry compote. The bun was toasted and soft and meat was cooked to perfection. The fries came hot and crispy in some places. If I was back downtown I would come back hands down. read more

The burgers are on the smaller side here but I love the selection! It was my first time here but the friends I came with all generally agreed that the burgers were smaller than they remembered (not sure if there's been a downsizing over time or if they had larger portions from other locations). I went for The Luv Ya Blue, which had great flavor and texture from the bleu cheese slaw. The waiter recommended it cooked Medium Well. I also ordered the Salted Caramel Pretzel milkshake and saw stars with how good it was- I would come back for the milkshakes alone. The pairing was also suprisingly good. There's decent street parking and a paid lot across from the restaurant. Sit outside during the cooler nights, the patio is spacious and they have a few games like Ring Swing and Connect Four. I do wish the portion sizes were a little bigger but this is a great place for a fun date night or a casual outing with friends. I'm already looking forward to my next visit! - Ambiance: 5/5 - Food: 4/5 - Service: 5/5 read more

NEW FAVORITE BURGER PLACE!!!!! First time visiting and we were blown away. Loved that it was inside & outside. There were fun games for everyone to play with such as Hook & Ring and giant Connect 4. DOG FRIENDLY!!!! Our server Morgan was awesome and gave great recommendations. We got the Bodacious burger, Billy F Gibbons burger, & Homemade Goat Chips. Morgan gave us a sample of the goat chips before we decided to order them. Highly recommend this place!! read more

Service was amazing. We sat at the bar, the employee of the month is exactly that and for a reason. Both ladies behind bar were working so hard and doing it well. Our bartender was amazing and attentive. We got the loaded fries with brisket chili, I'm not sure we would get these again. We expected a BED of chili to where we could scoop it up and eat it, I ordered this as my meal so I was a little sad when there was not enough chili to actually eat, it's a thin layer of chili, a ton of fries (which were so good) and then all the fixins. I think it's good it tasted great, it just wasn't exactly what we expected on the chili side of things. My husband got the Hot Bastard burger and loved it. It looked gooooood too! I ended up getting a mini slider for some protein and that burger was . Come for the burgers & maybe stay for the fries too We watched sports, watched the people outside too haha. Outdoor seating and games available. Cute spot. Will be back! read more

Walked in at lunch time as part of the ACHE convention that has 7,000 attendees and they were busy but had things under control. Nice outside patio and large welcoming indoor area too. I sat at the inside bar. My order was taken in quickly and came out in just under 15 minutes. The burger was very good, know that when you order a burger that's all you get. I ordered the sweet potato fries and they were cooked perfectly but were over salted to me. I knocked some of it off and they were fine. The burger was juicy, the bun was soft, and the egg was cooked just enough to not create a total mess but enough to add the creaminess. read more

We had a long night at a wedding the night before and were craving a big juicy burger before driving back home. We were looking for a dog friendly spot with a patio as well. Rodeo Goat delivered! Patio is super spacious with a lovely water feature. They have a few games for you to borrow and play as well. It wasn't very busy as it was a Monday so there was plenty of street parking. You download the app and it's cheap at about $1.70 for an hour. Our waiter was quick and very honest about all our questions about the menu items. Much appreciated! We started with the Texas Caviar. Decent portion size and comes with plenty of chips. It wasn't bad, but needed some spice. I ended up adding some of the habanero sauce that came with my burger and it was perfect. For burgers we went with the Billy F. Gibbons and the Bodacious. Apparently the Bodacious is one of their popular burgers. For the Bodacious we added an extra patty and extra bacon. It came out ENORMOUS! Also with a side of Hand Punched Fries and I asked for extra Trailboss Habanero Sauce on the side. We like it spicy! It is homemade, flavorful and definitely has a kick to it. Added Monday bonus...they have $3 Moontang all day on Mondays. We had never heard of this and decided to give it a try. Not bad! A refreshing frozen moonshine and orange drink. Slightly sweet, but not overdone. Needless to say neither one of us could finish pie burgers ha the Bodacious was insanely massive. I probably would get the Billy F. Gibbons again. It wasn't bad by any means, but needed a lil more flavor for me. Too much bread. But we are definitely coming back and trying more burgers. Loved the staff, atmosphere and very reasonable pricing for massive portions. read more

This place is a go-to for a solid burger in the EaDo area! I've been here about 2 times already and both times I was super pleased with what I got (I don't quite remember what I got in the picture). As someone who doesn't typically pick burgers as their meal of choice, especially when going out to eat, I'd always agree to come back here because of how good the food is. Service is usually pretty quick to take your order, but when it's busy it is a bit harder to feel attended to and flag down a waiter (which is completely understandable). This is an extremely casual spot and is great for pre-game meals. Parking is a bit tricky because of the location. You can get lucky with street parking or park in the metered lot across the street. I'd highly recommend this place as a must-try for burgers in Houston though especially if you find yourself in the area. read more

This place lives up to the hype so much that I had no issue going again when a different friend asked to go!!! Both nights I came it was easy to seat ourselves at a table and get served. Inside is great but they have great outdoor space with that ring game a lot of bars have. All the servers were super nice. The first time I got the river oaks cc and the second time I got the royals with cheese which I loved more than the river oaks!!! The beef was delicious and I loved the jalapeño spice. We got the cheese fries both nights which is a massive platter with plenty to share!!! Overall loved my experience and would highly recommend. read more

My husband and I came here for dinner. When you come in, you sit yourself down to where you want to sit and a waiter wait will come to you to take your order. There's an indoor and outdoor area. We order the rip wheeler and sugar burger in a bowl because I'm trying to keep a low carb diet. I actually like the rip wheeler more. It's very savory with a nice texture and ratio of ingredients with a slight coffee after taste. the burger in the bowl was decent. The leaves were not soggy or oily. The onion rings were amazing. They were huge and crispy! Our waiter was very nice and quick. This is a good place for like a casual date or a casual family meal especially if you want to have burgers for dinner.

Loved Rodeo goat. I have tried over 30 burger places in the Houston area and Rodeo Goat ranks in my top 3. Burger was good. Seasoned pretty good with fresh ingredients along with the patty.

I am now obsessed with the Moontang! I don't usually go for a frozen cocktail but the Tang of it all intrigued me and I absolutely adored the artificial nostalgia of it all. I had the hot bastard burger with a veggie patty and they aren't messing around--the spice level is serious but so good. We had several kinds of fries for the table and it was all delicious. Will be back soon to sit on the patio with a couple of Moontangs. read more

I ordered the kid sliders, a side of fries, and a strawberry lemonade. We also got the Whisky Burger with a side of fries and a BL Texas for the drink. Sliders were good, fries didn't have any flavor whatsoever. The Whisky Burger had a berry compote that didn't mesh well with the mustard so we should've asked for it on the side. The setup of the restaurant wasn't great. Sitting on stools either across the table from your plus one (or if you had a party of 3 it was 2 on one side of the table and 1 person on the other side) was just awkward. read more

The very first thing that stood out to me was the decor inside. Very goat themed hence the name "Rodeo Goat." There were goats on the walls, pictures of goats, goats statues, and my favorite a mural of goat jail with goats standing in front of a height chart for mugshots. The decor entertained me a lot and made the place feel unique! The atmosphere outside had views of the lake and it was nice! The food was pretty good as well and very flavorful and filling. Would recommend for a chill simple American diner meal. read more

Tried Rodeo Goat and got the Bodacious Burger -- really tasty and a great value at $13. The burger was flavorful, satisfying, and definitely worth the price. It was extremely busy when I went, especially inside, with people waiting for tables and a pretty hectic atmosphere. I ordered pickup, and it was ready right away, which made things much easier. One thing to keep in mind: parking was full during that time, so I had to use the paid parking lot across the street. If you're going on a Saturday, expect crowds and plan ahead. Great burger, but be ready for the rush. read more

Rodeo Goat is one of my go-tos for burgers in Houston. It has a wide range of all incredible burgers with a high variety of flavor profiles all with super fresh and high quality ingredients. I think I could close my eyes point to a random burger and be genuinely impressed and satisfied. The fries are also delicious! Great drink specials and a really nice vibe to go and chill after work or enjoy a weekend day. The service has always been super friendly and high quality. My constructive feedback would be to have a person walk you to a table as it can take a little bit to get service as you seat yourself. It's a communication opportunity more than a complaint here. Do come to Rodeo Goat!! read more

Rodeo Goat is tucked behind the George R Brown Convention Center, on what some people might call the wrong side of downtown, but it's well worth making the effort.

Full Bar, large warehouse type facility, indoor and outdoor seating when not raining. Clean not too crowded not too loud. First and last trip, I don't like the idea of no unpaid parking anywhere near by. I ordered the Marvin Zendler minus the Onion rings My son the Hot Bastard with fry's and Rings. Due to parking situation, ordered to go. I hope it's as good when I get home as it might be eating in. I love the mixed crowd. I don't come downtown often and reminded why. Cooked to order so a bit of a wait. Server Bar tender was friendly and said they offer a Military discount. Parking kills it for me. Many may say the Burger is small, for me cut in half was enough to fill me up on half. read more

Food was so GOOD I had the burger with goat cheese I believe. Service was great I picked up my order so I didn't get to stay. They do have a parking lot in the front but this is right in EADO so there's plenty of street parking. Ambiance inside seemed less lively the party seemed to be outside in the outdoor seating. Will go back and sit down soon! read more

The server was nice -- no complaints there. But everything else? Kinda messy. First off, the drink I ordered... they didn't even have it. Cool. Happens. But then they tried to charge me for it anyway. My guy... how you billing me for a drink that only existed in theory? Then the food situation. They told us the kitchen was backed up -- fair enough. But somehow my burger came out, I ate the entire thing, and my fries were still on a spiritual journey somewhere in the kitchen. By the time they arrived, the burger was already history. That's not timing -- that's chaos. Nice server, but the kitchen and the billing department need to have a team meeting. Weak. read more

This is my second visit and I brought a guest! The burger was delicious, they had so many different varieties to choose from. I stuck with the Marvin Zindler, parking has gotten better because now they have a shared parking lot and it's only $10 no matter how long you stay. Side parking is available but that's always a challenge in Houston Tx Downtown! My guest decided to try that fry I bragged about last time except he went all out and got the "loaded fries surprise." He enjoyed it but could not eat it all at once like he thought. Lol! I stuck with a regular fry and just got then to bring me some cheese on the side. The service went well, they worked together as a team, team work.always is a plus! The Ambience was sporty but chill they had both indoor and outdoor seating which was plenty. I look forward to returning to try more burgers and there desserts. Eating out sometimes is a part of living your best life! read more
