The burgers are great. Onion rings are cooked in a Cajun breading . Fairly cheap lunch at a unique place. The Thai burger is extremely hot. BBQ sandwich is huge.

Finally ate there and thought the two meat(beef&turkey) sandwich was great; had good smoke, was juicy enough & sauce was awesome. The fries tasted & looked like old oil. Shakes aren't hand-scooped.

Carlos Angus burger was great!! Comes with fries AND onion rings ! One of the best burgers I've had...and I love my burgers ! haha Service was good - friendly staff , quick service .

Wolf Holt

Fantastic. The spicy Thai burger was great, very big and very spicy . Comes with avocados like a Real San Antonian burger :)

Guy Fieri visited this 60-year-old diner serving a Thai twist on Texas bar-b-que and classic sides of ranch-style beans and hand-battered onion rings . Read more

Great food. Awesome owners and staff . Love the onion rings .

Mike O'Con

May have been a fantastic burger joint decades ago. Looks the part. Old, rough around the edges and well behind the times. But the burgers are honestly quite poor. And the fries very lacklustre.

Megan Kaiser

Oh my gosh- the onions rings are out of this world and so is their brisket sandwich !!!!! YUM

JenKudu

The brisket , fries and ranch beans were okay. It was featured on DDD several years ago. It was probably tastier then than now. Again good, solid BBQ .. Nothing wow about it.

Kol

The Spicy Thai Burger is really good but it's pretty spicy . Make sure that you can handle spicy food before getting it.

Britni Barker

Chicken Fried Steak was okay, batter was great, but the meat was tough. Service absolutely sucked!!! My other half loved their burger and the fries and onion rings were great!

John C

Great burgers . The Thai Burger is super spicy so be careful! However it's delicious!

Chaka T

The two meat burger (beef and sausage ) was awesome!

Brisket sandwich was amazing. Hot sauce was perfect complement.

Candas Whitehead

I had the sausage and beef san much and it was yummy

Matthew Stiger

Their spicy BBQ sauce is excellent, part thai, part texas bbq , all yummy.

Mark McCoy

Try the Cheddar Burger or the Thai Burger , you will not be disappointed!

Daniel De Luna

Noise level: High. Even across the table from my party I kept saying "what?" Food: good. Try the two meat platter. Service: 2/5. Not impressed at all. It's a wham, bam, thank you ma'am, atmosphere.

The food was just as great as Guy said it was and the sauce was out of this world

Spicy BBQ sauce is AWESOME. Sliced beef sandwich was good but not spectacular.

The food is good and it's worth your money

Ron Jeramiah

Not sure what all the hype is; BBQ was terrible, Burger pure spice and no other taste. Best thing about the place was the music . ???? not a recommend.

Alejandro "Got Down"???? (Schneider)

Forewarned the day after this restaurant is featured on the food channel it is packed till closing time.

Scott Peck

Onion rings are awesome!

Brian Lewis

If you are a huge meat lover, get the two meat plate. Multiple meats in you for one low price

Gabriel Tamayo

Awesome thai burgers !

Drew Witt

Tried the 2 meat plate. It was okay. Not great. Not Rudy's. Luke warm temp and very fatty. Not outstanding flavor. Was expecting more.

The burgers are great but the service has gone down :(

Elías Zepeda

Do not get the chicken sandwich . Not worth it. Try something else on the menu.

Jennifer Boone

The bbq was sooooo mediocre and dry. Oh also, they got our Togo order wrong.

Rosanne Mills

Nope to rib plate. Pricey not fresh coleslaw as said. Not worth the price!!
