Great Food even better service!

by codee at Citysearch

I been 2 or 3 times on weekday evenings and have tried diffrent menu items, burgers, ahi tuna, shakes and the fabulous fries. The food is always excellent. What I'm most impressed by is the staff. They are the most friendly group--they are always upbeat and positive--and really seem to enjoy working there. There is a friendly greeting the moment you walk in,when you place/pick up your order and when you leave. The restrurant is always clean. I haven't tried the drive thru--I think I would miss the counter service too much. The owner needs to work hard to retain those employees. There are a lot places for good burgers in Houston but I doubt you will find better customer service anywhere.

• Pros: burgers, service
• Cons: Kirby construction

Best hamburgers!

Becks Prime > Bubba's Burger Shack > Prince's Hamburger > Fuddruckers

Wow, I've eaten hamburgers all over America and this place is by my fav although I am no food afficionado. I thought In-N-Out in California made the best burgers followed by Conway's Red Top in Colorado, but in Texas, Dirty Martin's in Austin and Beck's Prime in Houston hands down!

I love local favorites that identify one place only. And this is Houston's hamburger-baby. Upscale (with a feeling you've been whisked back to the late 80s/early 90s with said decor) and authentic American hamburger. I always get their classic Cheesburger, french fries (better than Niko Niko's imo, fresh and big cuts of potato lo) along with a dessert portion (8 0z.) Vanilla milkshake (made with real buttermilk, this is sinfully rich drink has maybe 50% sat fat and this is the 8 0z cup only). No friend of your wallet or heart, this fantastic restaurant should still be an essential place to eat on your monthly list. Highly recommend!

• Pros: Delicious hamburger, best in Houston imo
• Cons: Pricey, nutritional value chart hard to find
