    The Avocado Burger and Cajun Sweet Potato Fries
    Irene B.

    Sweeeeeet! Just because we are out in the boondocks of Richmond... don't count us out on the use of artificial intelligence! This restaurant does such an awesome job of offering an experience with robot waiters and tapping on beer taps with reloadable cards! Who knew... now the flying cow logo makes sense.... My family loved the burgers here. They are freshly made in this restaurant sits actually on an RV park, which is interesting in itself. The restaurant is clean, it's huge. It has kind of a barnyard feel and the cool part is that they offer Wagyu meat for sale in the freezer. right next to it is a large menu with the prices of Wagyu meat you are just not going to find at your local market. Super reasonable prices! They also have tacos, hotdogs and shakes available. We walked out so full - we were walking around that RV park for a while! It's just so nice to have a local place that makes a real grilled burger with fresh vegetables and great bread that truly captures that Americana country spirit! .

    Kids Plain Cheeseburger
    Danny L.

    During our last visit, our food took 50 minutes to arrive after ordering. We just got two burgers and 3 sides. With little kids, it can feel like an eternity! They must have been short on staff that day because it wasn't very busy. The burgers are just ok. They claim that they are "Wagyu", but it's hard to differentiate (at least for me). The last two times that I went, my burger meat was unintentionally made well done instead of medium rare. In comparison, Fuddruckers does a much better job at burgers, but they just don't carry the novelty of being situated in the middle of nowhere. The building is an insulated metal warehouse that is partitioned into suites - one is for the restaurant and the other is a mail room. If you want to use the restroom, you'll need to walk over to the mail room suite. Everything is self serve. You order at the counter, grab your own drink, a robot delivers the food to your table, and you clean up after yourself. There is nothing different in terms of service than going to a Whataburger or fast food joint, so don't feel obligated to tip when the payment screen asks you "a question".

    Our group of 25 made reservations a month in advance and were told we had to order ahead too. So we were given menus and orders were sent in before we ever arrived. We arrived at 5:55 p.m. and I did not get my plain hot dog until 7:30 pm. The majority of our group had the same problem. They were more concerned with their trivia game than the customers who pre-ordered food. When we went to pay the prices given to us ahead of time changed and they did not want to honor the original prices they gave us. My hot dog was NO good. Meat was dry as was the bun. Tasted old. A very disappointing experience. I will not return or recommend anyone visiting this establishment. Poor management and training with poor quality food.

    The Classic
    Diana C.

    Sitting across an RV park way down a paved road, The Flying Cow was definitely worth the drive if you're in the Sugar Land area. Traveling down the farm roads, there are a handful of signs that will lead to you this burger joint. Once there, you are greeted by creative flying cow signs and stickers inside, and a sitting area outside on the grass with wooden benches. The menu has plenty of options - from at least 8 different burgers, to hot dogs to tacos (surprisingly!). The Flying Cow definitely shows you how many items actually can be made from beef! I ordered the classic, which is a cheeseburger. The meat was tasty but I wish I ordered medium rare instead of medium (taste preference). The burger was simple and straightforward - sandwiched between two buns laid a thick beef patty, lettuce, onions, tomato, pickles and cheddar cheese. My burger wasn't as juicy as I would have liked, but I'm pretty sure it's because I got medium. I will try medium rare next time. My husband ordered the brisket burger, and it was amaaaaazing. The brisket was so juicy and meaty. They put Cole slaw on top of the brisket and it was, chef's kiss. Definitely try this one if you're here. My son ordered the kid's cheese burger and he seemed to really enjoy it! It was definitely dry for my taste but that's because they would rather not serve a kid red meat, I'm sure! We ordered a large fry to share and it was more than enough for the 3 of us. The fries were pretty good but nothing to write home about. I wish they were seasoned a little bit more. The service was a cute little robot! Love seeing these little robots more often. It comes around and stops at your table, and you grab your food from it. They also have cute shirts and stickers for sale! And their milkshakes looked decadent. We will definitely come back the next time we visit Enchanted Forest Nursery!

    This was an excellent burger spot. All sides were tasty too. I had the classic burger with cheddar cheese. I knew it was going to be a hit, since they had cheddar cheese instead of the waxy American cheese served by many other places. Fried pickles, mushrooms and greens beans were delicious! Person taking our order was friendly and super helpful in assisting us on deciding what to order. Almost forgot to say, I really liked the country building and decor.

    Orign The Classic with  Cajun Fries
    Stacie J.

    This place is out of the way and a bit confusing to get to because it's attached to the community center for a mobile substation. It's unexpectedly nice and bright inside. The food was great The staff were polite (although our waiter had little to say ). The restaurant was ultra clean. It was quiet with soft music. We'll definitely be back. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 is because the bathrooms are inconvenient but they were clean.

    Brisket Mac N' Cheese The Classic Truffle Fries
    Rosendo C.

    $15.99 for a brisket Mac n'cheese without brisket and the size of a side in what reminds me of a cat food bowl. Not worth the amount paid. The classic burger was okay. Nothing special to write home about. Ok a positive note, the restaurant has a nice ambience to it. $43.31 for a meal and a half. Yikes!

    Sorry last cheese stick. But the mushrooms and Fried Brussel Sprouts
    Elizabeth D.

    Wow the food was so good!!!! Everything we got was so good. We were a big party and got alittle of everything off the menu. The Brussels sprouts, fries, mushrooms, cheese sticks all were delicious. I got the brisket burger and asked for the jalapeño sauce on the side. Jalapeño sauce has a kick. The burgers were delicious and even the grilled cheese. Definitely a place to check out you won't be disappointed

    Steak Hoagie and sautéed green beans
    Kristy S.

    Pulling into the area it's an rv park. The building the restaurant in is a yellow indiscriminate building. Just park and walk in the door with a small Flying Cow sign. Upon entering, I first noticed how oddly quiet it was. Check out the menu, drool, order, & drool while you wait. There were a handful of other patrons there but the place was so roomy it was quiet. The bathroom is down a hallway where rv owners can check their mail or whatever else. My daughter had the cheeseburger and fries. It wasn't greasy but so juicy and delicious... per my 7 yo who normally doesn't eat meat. She said it was her best burger she's ever had. I'm not a burger person but I enjoyed her fries and Oreo milkshake. I had the wagyu hoagie with sautéed green beans. It was amazing. I can't complain.

    Fries.  Beneath the one or two whole fries was a LOT of small pieces.

They do an excellent job in trying to accommodate everyone and they made an effort to regularly check in. This place has that woody, western vibe to it.

The ahi tuna wasn't the best. It wasn't fresh and the feta cheese was a bit too overwhelming. As for the spinach and artichoke dip, I felt like it was okay. Didn't really like the tomatoes as it made the dip runny and hinder the taste from the star ingredients of the dish. The smoked gouda burger was the best. The meat was cooked perfectly and the amount for each ingredients were given generously. I also really loved how you really can taste the smokiness from the bite. As for the pasta, I thought that it was good but not the best. It was starting to get a bit heavy with the amount of cheese and I do wish the cajun flavor could be a bit stronger. The chicken was also on the dry side but it's still pretty decent. Overall, this place is okay. Service could've been a bit better since it took a while for us to find someone to help us on our water refill and check.
