Not going to lie, the 420 burger was the best burger of my life, beyond words. I was eating one, and before i was finished, i was ordering the second one. I had to go to therapy to overcome that. i couldn't eat more. Great service as

You get to eat inside (which is kinda outside but with a roof) or outside (without a roof). We picked a lively day to eat outside, so we did. Do be careful when you go in to order, the ceiling is a little low, and you don't want to bump your head. The burgers are pretty good. They've got the real old fashion flavor I was expecting to experience! Not to many places hit that note. One of us tried the fish sandwich and was not impressed.

I am so sorry to say that this little burger shack was extremely disappointing. I remember when they first opened, the food and atmosphere were amazing. Burgers were fresh and tasty, and the decor was so cute and unique (gave me Austin vibes). However, (maybe new owners?) here most recently, eating here was so horrible. Tables were dirty, walls were so dusty and chipping paint, the only AC was two window units with so much dust and mold (causing a bad smell), and bad service. When it comes to the food, the burger was dry, bread was old and hard, fries were not fresh, mayo was sitting out in the heat all day, and all this was served on plates that didn’t even look washed. Also, WAY TOO EXPENSIVE!!! :(

I have been a customer of this little shack of restaurant since they opened 10+ years ago. Never disappointed in their food despite its curb appeal. This shack stands out from the more appealing tourist attractions and shops as it is built in-between two obviously separate buildings. The welcoming atmosphere and hustle of the women behind the counter is very reminiscent of your grandmother's kitchen; complete with one of the best burgers in the area.Parking: Street parking spots available however they are limited.

Menu looked good but the place isn't sanitary. None of us ate all of our food. Could tell the bacon on my burger was old and burger just tasted off. Our son ended up throwing up later in the day and had diarrhea the next. Very certain it was from eating here. Mayo left out in the heat for who knows how long, we didn't use it of course. In the end we were overcharged. Husband didn't say anything to the woman who cashed us out and didn't tell me till we left. $95 for 4 burgers and 2 kids plates. Go somewhere else.

Cute dive but it’s clear the griddle wasn’t hot enough when they cooked our burgers. They didn’t have any crust instead tasting like they had been baked. They were cooked all the way through but the exterior was no different than the interior.

My favorite place to go with family when I am at south padre.The Stoner Burger is my fave.It's outdoor patio style, but if you don't like that they have a cute indoor setup.Great prices, little of everything on the menu, cold beer, and food is always made to order.Definitely worth coming.

Cook was handling raw meat and then sticking her hand in the tub of blue cheese and putting buns in the toaster. They forgot what our order of 2 burgers was, and we had 2 people get their order in front of us. Food was sub-par. Would recommend against it.
