I visited this spot recently and was thoroughly impressed. While it's primarily known as a burger joint, you absolutely cannot miss their Friday Fish and Chips special. The portion size was huge and easily justified the price. More importantly, the quality was fantastic—the fish was perfectly crispy, and the potato wedges that came with it were seasoned and cooked just right. It’s an excellent, high-quality meal. ​Beyond the food, the outside patio is a major highlight, especially on a beautiful day. It’s a comfortable, relaxed setting that makes dining outdoors a pleasure. It’s also clearly a great place to watch a game, as they have TVs showing sports strategically placed around the restaurant. Finally, the service really shines; the staff are nice and attentive, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience. ​A solid four-star experience—great food, great atmosphere, and great service!

11/15: We saw this place on a review ad online to be a pretty good spot to try. So we didn't and it turn out to be one of the best burgers in the area. Yes, the ingredients are fresh, the meat is flavorful, and the fries were on point. The atmosphere was great and the brought the food out quick. The price is firm would you get. I would definitely recommend this location if you want a good burger meal. Please Like ,Follow and Share for more #JayTrueRatings

Just getting into Houston for a month’s stay, we were craving a good old-fashioned burger—and that’s exactly what we found at The Burger Joint on Montrose. This place is truly a hidden gem. Parking is definitely sparse, but once we found a spot and walked in, we immediately felt the vibe: casual, like an outdoor BBQ at home. It wasn’t loud, but had a nice, chatty energy. The ordering process was simple—look over the menu, order at the counter, grab your drinks, and sit. The woman who took our order was warm and welcoming, which set the tone right away. The dining area was clean, the tables spotless, and the place had a steady hum of activity. Large TVs line the walls, and since it was Sunday, football was on everywhere—though the one near us had the Sonic Slide Games, which was a fun change of pace. Our food came out quickly, hot and fresh. My wife had the Classic Burger with cheese and onion rings. The Angus beef patty was juicy and flavorful, topped with crisp, fresh veggies. The onion rings were outstanding—hot, crunchy, and perfect with their spicy ketchup (which was a winner all on its own). My son ordered the Fire Burger, loaded with serrano and jalapeño peppers, pepper jack cheese, chipotle mayo, and their signature Fire Sauce. He loved it. His queso fries were equally impressive—cheesy, hot, and the perfect pairing for a spicy burger. I went with the Nashville Hot Chicken Sando, and it hit the mark. A big chicken breast with just the right amount of heat, paired with slaw and pickles for balance. The hand-cut fries that came with it were excellent—crispy, crunchy, and I really appreciated the variety in fry sizes, which made them extra fun to eat. We also noticed their cups advertised Taco Bar and Pizza Bar, which tells us this group knows how to do comfort food right. All in all, the food was fantastic, the atmosphere was casual and welcoming, and the prices felt like a great value. This will definitely be one of our go-to spots while we’re in Houston.

There isn't much to say about this place. I love the location. The Burger Joint is located in a cool side of town and seems to be a really cool hang be it with friend, loved ones, or just to take it the views or watch a game by yourself. As far as the food is concerned, I had a BBQ burger, and while it was stacked tall, I only managed to eat half of it, like a good boy 🤣. Had a side of Queso fries and they were MEH. The food was good, I wasn't blown away though. I might come back to try a shake.
