What People Are Saying About Christian's Tailgate Bar-Grill

In Short – The second incarnation of Christian's belies its Midtown locale with a come-as-you-are vibe, ice-cold mugs of beer and mammoth burgers. Here the burger patties are stacked on six-inch buns toasted crispy around the edges and topped with mustard, mayo, onions, pickles, tomatoes and shredded lettuce, with satisfying onion rings on the side. The U-shaped bar hosts the majority of patrons watching the dozens of TVs playing games. In-house entertainment includes bands, DJs and karaoke on the weekends.

Great service. Courteous and friendly.

Great service. Courteous and friendly. Steak night in Wednesday is really good.
Christian's Tailgate Washington Ave.
by EZMoney
Read reviews online about this place ranking in the top 5 burger joints in Houston. Burger was medium-well to done, though I was told the burgers were cooked @ medium. The bald-headed cashier/bartender was way less than hospitable and pretty much a jerk. I walked in and he stared at me like I had a horn growing out of my forehead; after prompting him to tell me how the burgers were cooked/where I was supposed to order my food, he finally talked. Burger was overcooked, but onion rings were good. Management please hear me....this kid at the register is not behaving well.
If you like burgers and $1 beer
by Craigs Happy Hour
I think they have one of the best burgers in town. It’s a relaxed atmosphere with a patio facing Bagby. The happy hour specials are great way to save money on Mondays and Wednesdays with $1 beers. If your looking for a good deal in Midtown, this is a good place to check out.
- Pros: Open Feel
- Cons: Parking
Love this place
by cmitch
This is a great place to hang out with your guys.
The burgers are awesome and relatively cheap (~$7-8 for a combo). It's also usually not too packed until late, so it's easy to chill here for a few hours.
They also have great deals on domestic pitchers...$5 for happy hour times. This is definitely one of the better deals I've found around midtown.
On top of that, they have darts and shuffleboard! I would highly recommend Christian's
- Pros: Great burgers, good beer prices
- Cons: None
A Must Try Houston Burger
by Kitchenista
This is one of the best burgers in the city, hot, juicy, paper wrapped grease ball of flavor heaven. Cheap beer by the pitcher at lunch. This place morphs into a bar at night, and I've not been there then, only at lunch. The original location on Washington is a legend (for a reason).
- Pros: Flavor packed burgers
- Cons: If there is convenient parking, we didn't find it
