Craving a burger while near Tomball and decided to try this place since it was voted best burger joint in Tomball in 2023. And I can see why. I had the Blank Canvas burger and it was amazing. I added cheddar and bacon and helped myself to the rest at their fixins bar. The smoke on the burger patty is what sets it apart from other burgers. I appreciated the thickness of the burger, and although I prefer my burgers a little more on the medium side, I have to say I might be spoiled from now on with this one. Also worth mentioning are their fries. Hot, natural cut and perfectly seasoned. That, and an ice cold beer to go with my burger was a win-win-win for me. Top it off with the friendly greeting and assistance from the staff will keep me coming back and bringing friends. I highly recommend trying The Tejas Burger Joint if you're ever in the Tomball area, but it's worth the little road trip if you're not from around these parts. read more

Delicious brisket tacos with lime dipped in taking. My husband loved the combo of brisket and blue cheese with the vinegary bbq sauce. Dinosaur bone with a carrot pudding like side. Fun and fast service. And finish off with some yummy chocolate after for desserts. read more

The tater tots were amazingly cooked, nice and crispy. The smash burger was good. Well seasoned. The jalapeño cheddar burger had very little flavor and the jalapeños had no spice at all. The service was good, though not very knowledgeable about their sauces and other items. The ambiance was inviting, a very back home country kitchen feel. read more

I've been caught off guard! I came to Tejas craving a burger. As I browsed the menu on the wall, I saw: NEW Birria Tacos Lately, I've tried to get in touch with my feelings. As part of this effort, I admitted that I've had a crush on birria. So I ordered the birria. When I bit into the taco, I felt that feeling deep down as if I just had just scratched an instant winner lotto ticket. I thought to myself, I'm at a burger place - don't have high expectations for the birria. Tejas overachieved. The hot, smoky, seasoned, shredded deliciousness blew me away. Their birria tacos was better than most Mexican restaurants / food trucks / stations wagons carts. It was just great. Now, I can't wait to go back and get more! read more

I discovered this place recently with my boyfriend who said his co workers raved about this place so we had to give it a try. We went for their happy hour special burgers and they were very delicious I also got tots with mine they were incredible. The fountain sodas out of the soda machine were to die for!! We will definitely be coming back to this establishment often!! Glad to have found this place! I definitely recommend this place to everyone!!! read more

I thoroughly enjoyed the food here. I ordered the smoked burger, plain, as well as a tray of tots. I could not have been happier with the food. My wife ordered a cheeseburger with bacon and the fries. Again, food was awesome! The staff were very friendly and even checked on us throughout the meal. Definitely coming back here. That smoked burger was so good!!! read more

We have been here w few times and always enjoyed their burgers, and assortment of other options on the menu. The green onion aioli is top notch, and always our dip of choice for the yummy fries and crispy golden tots. Tonight we went and as we were sitting there enjoying our food, my husband mentions that he can't understand how the 3 of us got the bill to $70, before a tip. I stop eating, turn around and take a quick peek at the menu, do some math and agree, no way did we spend $70. Mike never gets the receipt despite me telling him to do it every time we eat out... Just in case something happens to the order. Because he didn't get the receipt, I let it go, secretly thinking that's what he deserves for not getting the receipt. But apparently now it's bugging him, so he goes up and gets it reprinted. Turns out , they put an automatic "15% gratuity fee on top of the check, in lieu of tips". As Mike is standing there waiting for the receipt to reprint, he does see the paper explanation of this service fee taped to the counter, which he pointed out to me and I snapped a pic of. So I do definitely have a problem with this autogratting of anything, let alone 15% of the bill, which turned out to be $8.62. there are so many reasons why I a problem with that. First, as a restaurant manager, I have seen servers work their butts off in a full service place and get stiffed. Second, as the posted statement says, this is for all of the staff in lieu of tips. Tips are earned, as I have heard a million times in my career... You don't get to just tack them on to a check to compensate the employees. There were 3 of us, with tax, our bill before the service fee, was $61.00. this was for 2 burgers, 1 hotdog, 3 fries, and 3 drinks. Not cheap. Yes, it's good, and yes, we like to support local businesses, but $61.00 for that tells me (because I do understand food cost and such). The owners are still making a nice profit. So the employees should be getting a fair wage for what they do. The owners should not be passing the labor cost on to the customer. So yeah, I am pissed, and no, we won't be back. read more

The service was very friendly. The fries and tots are very good, hot, and fresh. Most burgers you put your own toppings on. We got a 1/2 lb smoked burger which wasn't our favorite. It's very thick and quite smoky, our thoughts on this are strictly preference opinion. Also got a single smash burger. It was already topped with the toppings of their burger sauce, lettuce, cheese, onion, pickle, tomato. I did not love the burger sauce, it was ok, the burger itself was good but quite messy. The restaurant was a little warm even with their 2 mini splits running at 65°. Also for 2 burgers, fries, tots and 1 drink was $43. read more

We had been meaning to try Tejas Burger Joint for a while, but it always seemed to be very crowded. Yes, there is a reason why: really good burgers and sides. There are a variety of burgers available, and you can build your own with an array of toppings: a true overload! Sides were great -- the fried okra was fresh, slightly crisp and so tasty. Fries were pretty good and the onion rings looked great (although I was so focused on the okra that I didn't snag one of them to taste!). This is not a fancy, nor a large, place. It's just what it says it is: a burger joint. Walk in, place your order, grab a table if you want to eat there and you'll be called when your order is ready. Many people do take out here, but many people snag a chair, slurp up their burger and head on their way. A great place to stop and grab a bite if you're in the area. read more

I tried calling a few times before creating this review. I also called tejas bbq assuming it was the same company/owner and was then told they were a totally separate company. Unfortunately, as I got about halfway through my burger, I was stabbed in my gums by a 2 inch piece of steel. It appeared to be some sort of wire from a wire brush but a thicker gauge than you would typically find. Alert to owners to take a look at your equipment or cleaning supplies to see what this could be from. Luckily I did not swallow it. I have the physical hazard if you would like to retrieve read more

Place is clean and quaint. Food is pricey, but the quality is high and flavorful. Customer service

Hungry for a burger on a Saturday afternoon, my partner and I decided to stop here. The line was short, and the food came out quickly. However, the burger was very underwhelming. It just tasted like a standard burger. Something I could make at home for half the price. Same thing for the tater tots. I wanted a milkshake but couldn't stomach spending $6 on one. It's a cute place, but I don't plan to spend any time or money here again. Come back to us Mel's... My favorite part was the pickles. They're sitting near the drink counter in a self serve area. read more

We LOVE Tejas BBQ and aren't really in this area regularly, but have been wanting to try their burger joint........and it is the essence of a "burger joint." Small a bit squeezed dining area. Get in line and order first then seat yourself. Cashier gal was delightful, pleasant and patient with us,......I mean "me," as first timers trying to figure it out. She recommended the Smokehouse Burger, but since my wife had already ordered that, I wanted something else. She recommended the Custom Built option since I'd get the "smoked patty" as a base. I opted for the Caesar. Service was fast and friendly. Fries were really good. The "smoked patty" was definitely the way to go. I wasn't so in love with the Caesar topping, but the burger meat was seasoned and cooked to perfection. I was a bit jealous of my wife's Smokehouse Burger with bacon and cheeses! They have a serve yourself bar with fix'ns. We'll be back when we are in the area. Yummy! read more

My friends, I'm torn. I've been here. A few times now. And the food has always been solid. Every time. Before this weekend, I would've 4-5 starred this place. Then this weekend happened. So we come in around 6ish, myself and two friends of mine. We all have masks on. There's no sign on the door, none of the staff are masked or gloved, none of the patrons are either. As dumb as our state government is, I understand that within the law, it is then up to the choice of the establishment, and then the individual. As commons sense as it is to to do the right thing, I accept that folks can choose to do the other thing. I can and have lived with this. My friends are expecting, so we wore masks at all times when we were not drinking or eating. Here's my problem. Don't stare at me because you make dumb choices and I don't. I paid, I can eat however the F I want. You don't like masks, fine don't wear one and end up at the hospital, or putting someone else in there. But don't stare at me and my table because we're doing the right thing, and playing it safe. We were getting the mug for some time, and I stared right back. They weren't in a shortage of tables, and we have manners. No reason for that. So very uncomfortable and rude. Beyond that, food was excellent as always. I don't care where you live or what you do, there's common sense ways to protect yourself and your community. Work on that, and customer service. If you choose not, then you don't need my business. Best of luck in the future. read more

These were some of the best nachos I've ever had in my life. However, you do need to take a second mortgage out for them. The burger was also amazing. For me and my husband to have lunch here was $45. We split a burger, no fries or tots just the burger, and we split an order of nachos and had two sodas and it was $45. That's a little more than I like to spend on lunch so I won't come often but I will come. The sodas are nasty, save your money. Their pickles are sooo good. I like having the option to grab some and pico to add to my nachos. Very fresh and. tasty But if you are into high-quality food, this is it. Amazing burger. Amazing nachos. Pricey, but amazing. read more

This place is right on Main Street, and parking is easily accessible across the street. The staff was extremely friendly throughout our lunch stop in. We had a grilled chicken sammy without the bacon and avocado crema on the side with some tator tots, too, and a smokehouse burger with regular fries. The food came out quickly and was extremely hot and fresh. There is a station next to the drinks where you can also pick up toppings like lettuce and tomatoes. The grilled chicken sandwich was moist, and the chicken wasn't overcooked. It had plenty of flavor and didn't need the avocado crema. It was more of an added touch. The smokehouse burger was also perfectly cooked, and it was more than enough food. We ended up taking the fries and tots home, but we will be back soon. This place is highly recommended! read more

I discovered this jewel on a recent get together for BOTM (burger of the month ) UYE in January. This establishment serves smoked beef patties and they were absolutely delicious. I ordered the Swiss mushroom burger combo, that came with the fixings and French fries, which were golden, crispy and yum yum. The beef was really good. I could taste the smoked flavor with every bite and it was a half pound patty. The patty is somewhat pink looking but that's because of the smoked flavor. The buns were delicious and the juices from the burger sunk into the buns, but they held on. It a small sized restaurant, but very good. The employees were very helpful in describing the items and giving any details that we inquired about. I plan to visit them soon again, once restaurants open back up for dine-ins. read more

I have to say the burgers are good. Their fry seasoning is exceptional. However they are very over priced. It was $100 for four people. Burgers are $15 a piece with no sides and no drink. To me it's not worth that much. read more

BOTM, (Burger of the month)1/25/20 Olivia picked a great place again. Thank you so much Olivia. The burgers at Tejas Burger joint are really good. They are made from brisket; so its almost impossible to mess them up! I ordered a blank canvas(build your own)and added bacon and it also comes with free tots or fries. You can get onion rings for $2.00. This time I ordered french fries. They have all the fixin' for you to put on your burgers yourself. (Lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, pico de gallo and onions) The patty was seasoned perfect and was very juicy. It had a great smokey taste. Also the patty is not one of those thin things you get elsewhere. (Where's the beef) The fries were good too. Not greasy, limp or overcooked. I did not even finish all my food. The portions are quite big. All and all I had a great time and the food was very good. I would definitely return. read more

Uniquely delicious smoked burgers, good buns, fresh fixin''s, music, sidewalk cafe, somewhat cramped interior. Self service (no need to tip). I'd never had a smoked burger, and now there may be no going back to anything else! How has this remained hidden behind grilled or pan fried burgers ?? So much better depth of flavors as well as extra juicy. Onion rings were hot and crunchy. Obviously homemade which is is the only way: Bravo! Finally the fixin' bar: I used it to make a salad. There's some excellent cilantro dressing. read more

Good burgers, but not worth the drive to Tomball over getting their BBQ. I had the native Texan. It had a super juicy seasoned patty, along with salsa, cheese, and guac. It was very flavorful and...filling. I wish they had smaller patty sizes for their signature burgers. I would recommend splitting one if 1/2 lb is too much. I also tried the onion rings (not bad, but a bit more greasy than crisp) and tater tots (crispy and delicious). The prices are on the steep side (~$14), but the signature burgers come with fries/tots, or you can upgrade to onion rings. Seating is indoor/outdoor and limited. My order came out fast on a weekday at lunchtime. I think overall their burgers are good, but the price point will likely keep some away, along with the drive to Tomball. If you want a burger that isn't plain and ordinary, it's worth a try. read more

I really wanted to like this place--- so much so I was willing to park accross the street and walk through a busy intersection where the Crosswalk lights dont work, to get there. Place smells amazing. Its an order at the counter type place where they bring the food out to you. They play great music. However, everything was so overseasoned in salt it was pretty much inedible. And I like salt! I like highly seasoned food, so if I thought it was all too salty then its extreme. The fried okra was soo overseasoned I couldnt eat it otherwise the actual okra was good. The burger would have been delicious with less salt. Onion rings were good and the only thing not over salted . I love supporting local businesses but cannot do that salty place again-- and it makes me sad. read more

If your the owner of the company and have integrity respond to this post at-least. What is the 15% automatic tax about. Not only is the food overpriced you gotta pay extra for even sides and drink.

Popped in for lunch on a Friday afternoon. Heard it was also "Fry Day" so $1 fries? We aren't local so haven't heard if this place before, but we will definitely be coming back on our way back through. We ordered the smoked burgers with And without buns and a salad with the fried chicken on top. We also got Fries and drinks. The smoked flavor in the burgers was perfection! It adds so much flavor to the burgers which are HUGE by the way...8oz Patty. Toppings are located separate at a toppings bar. The fries are SO good and salted to perfection. Very impressed with this local gem! Highly recommend! read more

This is a order at the counter place. The cashier was nice. I don't recommend a big group come here. They do have seating for 6-8 people. But it's more of a come four or less type of joint. read more

We spent the morning at the Tomball Farmers Market on Saturday and then walked across the street to Tejas Burger Joint for lunch. This place is affiliated with the amazing Tejas BBQ place around the corner. Their smokehouse burgers are smoked patties from their BBQ place (the pink you see is from the smoke, not that it's cooked rare). They also have smashed burgers, which are thinner patties pressed on a cooktop. I would have liked being able to order the burgers medium or medium rare but they're all fully cooked. I got the blank canvas smokehouse burger, which is just the plain burger and you add whatever fixings you want to it (the standard fixings - lettuce, tomato, pickles, onions, jalapenos - are self serve. Other items are additional costs). It had a very nice smoky flavor and soft buttery bun. My daughter had the patty melt, which was 2 smashed patties, melty cheese and bacon. Very big and delicious. We didn't order any sides and still couldn't finished our meals. Just like the other Tejas restaurant, they are always delicious but definitely not cheap to visit frequently (it wouldn't be good for my health either). read more

We were a little concerned being the only customers there on a Tuesday evening, but what a hidden gem. We ordered old fashioned style double patty burger cooked on the flat top and fries. The price for the base burger is very reasonable, especially for the quality, and you choose add ons like your cheese ($1 a slice) special sauces etc. produce and other toppings are in prepackaged individual servings at a wall counter. There were craft sodas and those were really nice. Service was excellent but not overly friendly which I prefer. The food was out of this world. French fries - straight cut and excellent crunchy exterior without being greasy with a smooth and creamy interior. Add your own seasoning at the table - the Texas Fry Dust - and get a whole new level of delicious. Generous portion as well. We could have split the fries as neither if us finished our combo order. The burger - easily 1/4-1/3 pound precooked weight, perfect sear accentuated on the edges, juicy interior in every bite, and really strong flavor profile. Bun was toasted perfectly and soft while holding up well to the juicy patties down to the last few bites. We will absolutely be back and if it is your first visit be prepared to find side street parking and walk up to the storefront entrance in the strip off Main street. There were a few outdoor tables and chairs but we chose to eat inside where the music was good and the TVs were on foodie channels. Great ambiance even though we had the place to ourselves. read more
