Italian Beef wet of course
Jim M.

Love this place been a minute since last visit. Interior is a little dated but sparkly clean. Family owned with a great story line there is just something about a small business that gets it right time after time. The food is amazing Midwestern faves and char grilled burgers. For me it's the Italian Beef, Chicago Dog or the Polish sausage everytime.This is a 1 store shop kinda legend in these parts.

Eric H.

First time here with a friend, my buddy Gary recommended it. It's family owned with a Chicago background and there are several different options to choose from! We both had the flame grilled burgers with special sauce and fries. It hit the spot and I liked the spicy sauce better than the regular sauce. I want to make another trip soon to try a hot dog or polish style.. We definitely were satisfied and happy when we left.

Chicken Fried Chicken Dinner
Katlyn H.

We have been coming to Tex's Star Grill for years, this is definitely a favorite restaurant in the area. My personal favorite food here is the chicken fried chicken. Not only is the taste delicious, but the portions are amazing for the money. You will get a chicken fried chicken that is over half of a plate. I love getting the fries as my side to use the spicy house sauce. You also get toast and a side salad. Those working are very nice and they keep the restaurant very clean. You will probably also see the owner here, he is always working.

Reuben sandwich, fries, and Russian?? dressing.

Was in North Richland Hills for first time in 5 years. Finished my business and looked for place to eat. Normal row of cookie cutter fast food restaurants. Happened to notice Tex's Star Grill. Glad I did. Not your average drive thru. Chicago Italian Hot Beef dipped sandwiches, Gyros, chicken/beef kabob sandwiches. And my favorite the Reuben. Pastrami, Swiss cheese, rye bread and Russian (I would call it 1000 Island) dressing. Big steak house style fries, and big Coke. All delicious. Had a baklava too. Good. Several steps above your average fast food place. Would be 5 stars if not just toasted but made in Panini Press and real Russian dressing. Give it a try. Good food. Friendly employees. Fast service.

Customer service was excellent until an older woman came to the window. Maybe it was just one of those days, but she came off as unfriendly. I've never had a bad experience here and use to bake bread for the company. However, this does affect my overall review. The spicy fried pickles were horrible! The burger was decent. The onion rings were the best part of my meal. The establishment is still clean and looks the same from yrs ago. You can tell the owner takes pride in his business. I think this was an off day, hopefully.

One of our favorite go to places for burgers. My sponsor is attracted because of the Spicy Home sauce. I like the burgers but my favorite is the Ruben combo. Today my sponsor maintained her #2 Combo 1/3 Chzburger. I was trying to decide between a hamburger and a Ruben. The owner had a special listed as #13 Goldenburger. It is a burger overlaid with pastrami. Hence my solution to making a decision. We had a delicious meal and enjoyed the great service and clean atmosphere.

Forgot to take a picture before diving in.  Doesn't do it justice.  So good!

We can't give this place enough stars! Fantastic food! Don't let the exterior or name fool you. The food pictures don't do justice. George is a Greek man from Chicago that has lived in Texas a couple decades...and the food reflects it all. The Gyro is some of the best meat we have had. That's right, great gyros from a place with "Tex" in the name. We took the owners suggestion and got the Golden Burger that is piled with fresh pastrami. Amazing blend of flavors. My mouth wanted more. We highly recommend Tex's Star Grill. No matter your food-mood the fresh, made to order delights will appease your appetite and excite your taste buds.

Rick B.

This place is amazing! The food was fresh tasted fresh and the sweet tea also hit the spot. We also had the gyro and I would say top 5 gyro of all time that I have had. This is a must stop in and try if you are in the area.

Greek salad with chicken breast
April A.

Coworker and I went for lunch today. We each ordered a salad and we got one pizza puff to split just to try it. Salads were great, I got the greek with chicken breast and she got the chef. I loved mine, nice fresh vegg and you can't see it in the photo but lots of feta and olives, and comes with a pita and tzatziki. I didn't even need the greek dressing they included. The pizza puff was good, loved the filling, the dough part seemed undercooked to me? But I'm not from Chicago so what do I know. Super nice owner who is out in the dining room checking in on customers. Clean dining area. We will definitely be back to try something a little more decadent than salad. Support your locally owned restaurants!

Mushroom Swiss Burger frings
Kendall H.

Best drive-thru fast food in town! Everything is fresh at Tex's star grill. The star is always their French fries, onion rings, and spicy home sauce. So good and addicting!!! You can upsize any combo to get "frings" which is a large fries + onion rings - huge portion, but trust me, you won't want to share! we love their burgers, ham and cheese melt, Reuben, and hot Italian sandwich.

Really crispy and great Onion Rings

Good with kids?

Yes! The owner is friendly and the space is just like any other restaurant/ fast food space. I don't recall if there's a kids menu, but there's lots of options and the burgers and fries are awesome !!

Okay y'all... let me just say this LOUD for the people in the back…read more Philly Dave's is IT. We had the original Philly cheesesteak with sweet potato fries and I'm still thinking about it. Hot, fresh, packed with flavor... the kind of food that makes you pause mid-bite like "hold on... this is GOOD good." And can we talk about the owner?! So attentive and genuinely kind. We remember him from his "shack" days, and seeing him now just makes it even better. You can tell he really cares about what he's serving. Safe to say... this is officially our go-to spot for a Philly. No question. No competition. Run, don't walk... and thank me later!

Thought I had reviewed this place in the past, guess not... I've had breakfast and lunch/dinner…read morehere, so I'll cover both. Straight to the Philly. Its on Amaroso bread, check 1. They offer cheese whiz or provolone, check 2. Is it good? Check 3. This is a solid Philly and it can be customized any way you want. They don't skimp on meat or condiments, I think they are served fairly. The steak fries are great too. Never tried their burger, but it looks good and lots of people opt for it over the Philly when I've been there. As for breakfast, I'd say its just ok. Similar to a diner, you won't be disappointed and you won't be dazzled either. It was served quickly and priced fairly. No complaints here. As for the employees, I love the old guy. He can be edgy, but it doesn't bother me. I could see where some people may not get his humor, but I'd prefer someone with character over bland or dismissive any day.

Amazing customer service and food came out fast and burger patties were cooked amazing.read more

If I could give OC Burgers more than 5 stars, I absolutely would--this place is an absolute GAME…read moreCHANGER. Let's start with my husband's jalapeño burger... y'all... he took ONE bite and immediately hit me with "this tastes like a high-quality homemade burger." And he wasn't lying. Juicy, flavorful, perfectly cooked--like backyard grill mastery but elevated. Now let's talk about the kiddo's chicken tenders--because WHAT?! These weren't your average frozen, tossed-in-the-fryer situation. These were hands down some of the BEST chicken tenders I've had in a long time. Fresh, crispy, perfectly breaded, cooked to absolute perfection--and don't even get me started on the fries... golden, crispy, and downright addictive. And then... MY plate. The street taco plate with carne asada. Listen... this didn't just meet expectations--it BLEW THEM OUT OF THE WATER. The meat was fresh, insanely well seasoned (not overdone, not dry--just PERFECT). The flavors were bold without being overwhelming. And the sauces?! Unreal. The serrano sauce had the perfect kick without burning your soul off, and that avocado salsa? Smooth, flavorful, and chef's kiss. As someone who lives in Texas, I can confidently say--this is NOT your typical Tex-Mex spot. And thank goodness for that. So many places either overcook everything or completely miss the seasoning... but not here. This is authentic flavor, done RIGHT. This has officially become my go-to taco spot. No question. No competition. We WILL be back--and not just once... this is going into regular rotation. If you're even THINKING about trying this place--STOP thinking and GO. You can thank me later.

It's been about a year since our last physical visit in the store! Cleanliness was good this time…read more Service and food were to my satisfaction. The Parmesan truffles fries hit the spot. Even though the more you ate the saltier it got?! But it still was fine for me with the burger. Today I got the wagyu special (can't remember the exact name but it had the green box around it) I believe it's the Cadillac Wagyu and then husband got the wagyu smash. Gotta get that soda to go with the meal. Overall great experience for me. I had to wait for my food to settle once we killed every bite before saying I wanted more cause it definitely kept me filled the rest of the night (starting at 5pm). One of my go to places for a good fresh burger. Definitely try it!

Boyfriend review: I got the Ahi Tuna burger w/ hot honey sage fries. Both were delicious! Service…read moregood, not outstanding or terrible. Atmosphere is good as well. Only complaint I have would be the prices (which I mean I did get an Ahi Tuna burger). Also their receipt isn't itemized, like cmon now, I wanna see why my order was $50 BEFORE tip yknow? Anyhoo 4/5 Girlfriend Review: I got the truffle fries & the Thunderbird burger *beef patty & gluten free bun. Fries came out hot and fresh- full of flavor! The burger (cooked medium well) was very good as well, I actually like this gluten free bun. Close-to the texture of a biscuit. The bun was a little crumbly but no problem there napkins on the table!! Truffle sauce and ranch as dipping sauces were the move! Brianna took our order & made sure the kitchen knew I needed gluten free. She had made sure we didn't feel rushed while ordering. She also made sure the FOH stayed clean.

Fred's gets a modest upgrade to 3 stars. While it's never quite lived up to what I want it to be,…read moreit's also not as frustrating as my earlier experiences made it feel. The location is convenient, the patio is still a nice draw, and the burgers are solid, even if they're on the pricey side for what you get. The atmosphere is casual and familiar, and it's an easy place to stop in without much planning. Service can still feel hit-or-miss, and the value doesn't always line up with the cost, but overall the experience has been... fine. Nothing exceptional, nothing terrible. It's a place you can go, have a meal, and leave without strong feelings either way. I wouldn't call it a destination, but it works if you're nearby and want something predictable. A neutral three-star experience feels appropriate at this point. Keep on trying!

This burger and fried chicken spot is 100% worth the hype! I didn't realize they were featured on…read moreFood Network but totally makes sense. This is a place to take your family or friends, not from Texas, that come to visit. Or, if you're just hankering for some good ol' comfort food. The portions are huge, the food is flavorful and you can't go wrong with any menu item. Even though the place was packed (always a good sign) our waitress stayed on top of everything and made sure we were taken care of. Great food, great service, and definitely a spot I'd go back to. The chicken fried steak was out of this world! The bolo burger is a must order. I loved the sourdough batter they use and fries, onion rings and fried pickles were outstanding. And I cannot forget about the chili burger. All delicious. My phone died so I didn't get to take pictures. You will not be disappointed.
