While out in the Richmond/Grand Parkway area my wife and I were hungry and wanted to try a new places. Saw this place Wayback Burgers in a retail center and said let's give it a shot! Khoi the cashier greeted us and we told him it was our first time there! We gave a couple of papers with the menu on them. He ask if we had any questions he be able to help us! We asked for any suggestions and he told us the number one choice was the A-1 Steak Double Burger! So we ordered 2, one with cheese curds and one with onion rings and 2 Coke zeros! Khoi said it would take about 10 minutes to get fresh and hot meals out. It was about 10 minutes and Khoi brought out our food. Fresh, Hot and looked oh so good! The burgers double patty's were like smash burgers on a potato bun. Hot and juicy with cheese that was melted. Cheese Curds were hot and cheesy, but a little salty. The onion rings were hot and just the right amount of batter and with a whole onion inside. Fountain Coke Zeros were a good drink from the fountain dispenser. Everything was great, service, food and drinks! We will be back again! So if your in the area please stop by and try for yourself!

A1 burger
Robert B.

Not a bad little spot. Prices are comparable to so some other multiple men chains. This however is a fun "nod" to a burger from a TX chain. Is it exact? No but it's a good compromise. Tried the Steakhouse burger with A1. Quite tasty and nostalgic. Service was prompt and friendly. Overall the A1 burger is enough for me to return.

Just outside Houston ( you can't tell it's one huge metropolis) is Richmond. Looking for something quick to eat when I spotted Wayback Burgers A recent franchise that seems to be popping up everywhere,I decided to check it out. I went for an inexpensive combo," The Rodeo" just as an introduction. The place is clean and " Corporate" well layed out with easy menu. While my Rodeo combo was lacking( think basic fast food burger) the rest of the menu seemed more promising. Till next time...

CRAFT YOUR OWN DOUBLE BURGER COCA-COLA® COMBO

Nasty pricey food. For the price, the burger patties were ridiculously small. I paid nearly $12 for a specialty burger and expected a much more substantial burger. The photos on the menu made it look much bigger than what was served. I left feeling disappointed and don't think the value matches the cost.

Single with fries, drink
Carl S.

First time visiting since their recent opening and walked away unimpressed. I really like the restaurant's dining room decor, the staff was very friendly and helpful with the "build your own" options. So I ordered a single with fries selecting my choice of condiments and toppings. The prices were reasonable but my burger was just ordinary. Obviously, the key ingredient on a burger is the beef patty and their's was completely without seasoning. There was no char that would have come from a hot grill. I did love the build your own option and I'm willing to return to check out other sandwiches.

HALAL burgers , there are halal certificates on site
Humairaa A.

If you really want to taste the juiciness of the beef patty, you're better off ordering straight meat and cheese- The Cheeesy Burger aka the Patty melt. The classic burger was okay (3/5) but the ketchup/mustard combo overpowered the flavor of the meat. Their fries are crispy, but the flavor reminded me of kettle potato chips so if that's your thing, you're going to love it. Nothing special about the tater tots either. Fair warning- it's hot inside, like a sauna. It's a greasy bite in a warm place. Huge plus is the all the meat options, with the exception of the bacon, is HALAL. the beef, the chicken all halal. They've got certificates to prove it too. Management stressed that they make sure there's no cross contamination at any point between the pork and halal meat. It's a good option for those craving a quick burger in aliana / Richmond.

I've tried the crispy chicken sandwich cajun, and I thought it was alright but the chicken texture was a bit rough . The cheese curds and fries were also ok. Overall, I think the food is greasy. I had ordered to go, and it took some time to get the food ready. Last time I tried the impossible burger and the limited time brownie shake, and those were pretty good.

Went to @waybackburgers for the first time and I was impressed, enjoyed my meal their. we tried the Ghost Pepper Burger and the Cajun. beef was perfectly seasoned and cooked, the Ghost Pepper Burger was not hot, but just had a little kick to it, plus the Jalapeños were a perfect compliment to the burger. overall a great experience definitely will be back

Check in
Del F.

Kizzy the manager helped me with the order. The decor is modern, and this place is really clean. The burger was tasty, the bacon a little salty. The onion rings were a little greasy. I would try it again because the burger was really good, minus the bacon.

Inside Decor
Kyle C.

The service was good, nothing that stood out. The setting was they of a new establishment with a rush to try the newest place in the area. Now the food, it was cold, tasteless, and not how it looks in the pictures. The fries, onion rings, and cheese curds cold as if they were sitting over the fryers waiting for the next order. The owner didn't greet patrons, however sat speaking with family. I literally had high hopes for this place since it's a new area for development, however if this is the standard, I'd rather starve.

Hubby loves the classic burger and onion rings
Junebug B.

The Classic burger was good! Onion rings and fries were also good and served hot. The lady who took our order was attentive and did get our order right. Place was clean and tidy. Will definitely come back and try other stuff in the menu.

DOUBLE BACON BURGER combo

Decided to try out a new burger spot. Read some reviews but decided to try it for myself. I enjoyed my bacon double burger. The meat is fresh and you can see them cook from a window, the staff is super friendly, and over all I would honestly have to say this place is definitely worth a stop. They limited seating inside but it is very clean. I definitely coming back to it.

Shah's Halal Food

9.0 mi•Westchase

We ain't in Queens anymore…read more For years, I've eaten on Shah's all around the borough, initially out in Ozone Park and Briarwood before finding a real audience in Sunnyside. Now that they've sufficiently blown up around NYC, I was a bit shocked (and excited) to see them finally come to H-Town. What's the verdict? It's good enough to pass muster for NY standards (#1), is open super late, and will likely be my go-to Halal food for the foreseeable future. Since I've only had it in cart form, I'm still a buggin over the fact it's become a franchise. It's similar to my shock of eating Halal Guys at a store for the first time. The digs feel as foreign (prices, large, clean and bright interior) as it does familiar (taste, logo, etc.). Even though I had a laugh seeing the wall photo-mural of a Shah's cart in Times Square, I did appreciate the nod to Ozone Park with the 121st & Liberty street signs. The chicken + lamb combo platter ($12) is and always will be the winner. The lamb had the same kind of seasoning that most Halal spots out here try to replicate but can never get right. The rice was fluffy, and the white sauce was easily the highlight. I can understand why they've decided to bottle it up and sell it as liquid gold. It makes every meal better. Kofta ($12) and chapli ($13) are rarely my favorites, but I knew I had both in platter form. The addition of adding chickpeas and these other salads is not something I'm used to from the carts (#2) but I loved the fact it was drowned in the white sauce with a dash of hot sauce. The latter is supposedly extremely hot, but I didn't find it that spicy. While I have to say the cheeseburger was a bit of a disappointment (overly bready, thin patty), the pakora chips and french fries were fabulous. They were perfectly seasoned, had a nice crisp, and frankly would be an excellent, gut-busting addition to any platter. I don't love the extra charge, but I hope they remain consistent with it. This store location in Westchase along Westheimer is an up and coming part of town. There are numerous Middle Eastern businesses in the adjacent area, along with an abundance of parking spots and a good amount of late night activity. Service was friendly but I do hope they keep their standards up. As time goes on, I'm 100% convinced this will be a destination for the many late night meal seekers and fans of NY nostaligia. __________ (#1) Which automatically supersedes a lot of the ones here in Houston. Just keeping it real. (#2) Is the chickpeas a Houston thing? Genuinely curious.

Excellent lamb over rice. Got a bogo offer on Uber eats, and decided to try it out after great yelp…read morereviews. Yelp was right. Flavorful, filling, and fresh. I got the white sauce on the lamb and the spicy red sauce on the side. Unfortunately after a few bites I put too much hot sauce on, which made it less enjoyable, but that was my fault. I'd order this again, very solid, reminded me of some of the best halal trucks in NYC. 5*.

I walked and was greeted by the owner. I had to try the lamb gyro and make it a combo with fries and fountain drink. I took it to go and ate it at home. The fries were hot and crispy with that nice bite to it. Everyone likes fresh crispy fries. The lamb gyro was delicious. Just the right amount of meat and vegetable toppings with the cucumber, tomato, chickpea and lots of white tzatziki sauce all on a nice fluffy pita. Messy but a good messy. Overall the visit to Sami's Gyro House was a good experience. The seating is readily available, casual, and some other nice options on the menu. The price is affordable, food is fresh, and I have a place I can stop by for a gyro. I usually would drive all the way to Hillcroft for Shawarma but this is good. I'd love to stop in again to try the rice platters. Also I was super hungry, I forgot to take a picture of the food but believe me, it was solid haha

Welp, it's expanded it's lovely taco tasties all throughout Texas and into College Station where the Texas A&M student body swarms the area. In the mood for tacos that were meatless, I pulled up the app and placed an order for the fried paneer and the nashville hot tofu. Arriving to the place in the thunderstorm on a Tuesday, I was glad my food was nicely packaged when I walked inside. I thought about heading to my hotel to eat but being so hungry, I decided right then and there in my car that I would chao down on the concoctions. The fried paneer is straight up fire with the tikka sauce and that green crema plus that tomato sauce. It's one of my must-orders at any Velvet Taco but this spot did it amazingly well. And the NAshville hot tofu is crispy with a touch of heat and complimented with great textures from the slaw and pickles. Strongly recommend both of these baddies, even if you are a carnivore. You fellow Aggies are lucky to have this and you better treat it good!
