What People Are Saying About Prince's-Houston's Hometown Burger

In Short
Prince's wasn't Houston's first drive-in restaurant--that honor belongs to the venerable Pig Stand--but it withstood the deluge of franchise drive-throughs. A fun tribute to the early rock-and-roll era, it's decorated with wonderful jukeboxes and other '50s nostalgia. Menu includes burgers, hot dogs, french fries and all the expected favorites. Delicious, fresh shakes are made with hand-dipped ice cream and served in metal blender cups.

I stopped in here when visiting Houston recently. I was actually looking for the Burger Shack, but I found this place on the way. They have excellent malts and really good food overall. I can't say that the burger was the best ever, but it was thick and juicy, just the way it should be.

I went here for a quick weekday lunch. I ordered the Smitty with the fries and onion rings. The burger was pretty dry and the fries and rings were a bit soggy. But I will say that the food came out very quickly and is pretty decent for the price. I'd come here again if I was in the mood for some good ol' greasy food.

I used to eat at Prince's when I was a child. I always ate an Open Trout Sandwich. This was Texas toast, trout, tarter sauce and fries. So when it said original fish sandwich I had to try it. It was very good, but it was on a bun, not an open face sandwich and no Texas toast. A small amount of tarter sauce on sandwich. I do not think the fish was trout. Again the food was very good, the fish was excellent, the price was right, but the original sandwich it was not. I did not even realize they still had Prince's in Houston. It was a fun evening for my son and I . I guess I could not have expected the same sandwich as in the 50's, but I did love it so. I wish it could be the same.
