    Best kept secret in Houston? Not for long, these guys have been getting national attention.

    A burger experience for real men. There is a reason they have a roll of paper towels at every station.

    Best burger in Houston, bar none.

    Bonus points for Dublin Dr Pepper in their Soda Machine.

    Their homemade ketchup was the only disappointment.

    That's in my hood.

    I'll have to check it out.

    Any recommendations? The Houston and Sonoma sound like must-trys.

    I've been a couple of times, had the dude burger with egg one time. That was basically 2 burgers in one, I was worthless the rest of the day. Some other members here have vouched for it also.

    The Houston is definitely a must-try. Also, I really liked the coffee milkshake.

    Best ingredients around; it's worth the extra cardio to eat here at least once a week.

    The Texas burger is also highly recommended.

    Chipotle aioli is the best dipping sauce alive.

    If you liked Burger Guys, you should give The Burger Palace a try. It's on sage right behind the Galleria and next to Roxy. Both places use american kobe beef, and have outstanding fries and burger topping selections. I'd definitely put Burger Palace a step ahead of Burger Guys (because the Burger Palace has a burger from heaven called the Texas Cheeseburger), but both places are top notch burgers in my book :cool:

    If you guys like Vietnamese banh mi sandwiches, both The Burger Palace and Burger Guys do their own take on a burger/banh mi hybrid. An american kobe hamburger with the pickled carrots/daikon/cucumber/jalepenos/aoli sauces of typical banh mi sandwiches. Both taste outstanding, but my girlfriend and I (both Vietnamese) think that Burger Palace's daikon/carrots taste more authentic and less vinegary than Burger Guys. http://www.burgerpalacehouston.com/

    Fried egg on burger = ♥

    Fried egg on enchiladas = Fail.

    Found out this weekend. I was positive that anything with a fried egg would stay golden, Pony Boy. I was so wrong even the dogs couldn't sleep/stay under the covers during the night. My ass was setting up the bomb.

    Did you try the cheese enchilada w/ fried egg at Los Dos Amigos? Because that's what I measure all cheese enchiladas against now. My dogs don't mind the farts.

    Holy crap that's far out there. I rarely stray outside of 610, but outside the Beltway?

    I'll stick to the Red Lion for my "best" burger, Barnaby's if I want take-out.

    Lol @ red lion. Let's just say I have some knowledge of their inner workings -- the owner is a dick.

    LOL, that's exactly where I was, 'cept I went with beef enchilada's. Was not very fond of it. I'm learning my Spanish by eating there so much.

    Damnit, I wish I knew about this place in the summer. I'm going to have to check this place out this summer too.

    Always love me a good burger.
