Bernie's Burger Bus - Houston

This place was awesome. I love the concept, the atmosphere, the vibe, and the food. I had seen the Cheeto burger on Yelp, but when I got there I could not find it on the menu. I showed the bartender the picture of the burger and he said yep, they still have it. apparently it was on a secret menu. I probably should not be letting the secret out, because snitches get stitches. I got it and it was delicious. It has a little kick to it, but not too much that you cant enjoy the burger. The patties are macaroni and cheese covered with flamming cheetos. It has bacon and some type of hot sauce. Be warned, it is a lot of food. I must also mention that their lemonade is delicious too. The staff there was the best led by the manager Mia. She is very meticulous and thorough. My bar tender/server was simply awesome. The restaurant was very clean and has a bar with TVs, a nice sized dining area and a patio area. There is also ample free parking in the strip mall it is located at, but I can see where it can get packed. I really liked this place and I am sure that you will too.

This review is solely based on my delivery experience. I have never been to a Bernie's burger bus location. I have ordered from Bernie's before and had a great experience. My food was cooked well, tasted good and the cookie butter shake is out of this world but the last time I ordered.. it was not the best experience. My burger arrived raw. Cooked on the outside and all pink in the middle. Very chewy. I mean it wasn't even medium. I asked for well done. I was so disappointed because I was so looking forward to a delicious burger. I'm thankful that I didn't get sick. I know that I will order again from Bernie's in the future. I just hope that my burger comes in WELL DONE next time.

Really clever concept to have the kitchen situated behind a big yellow school bus and for then menu items to be named after school-related things. I ordered the hall pass, which has an antibiotic/hormone-free ground chicken patty. Halfway through my burger, I forgot I was eating chicken probably because of all the toppings though none of them particularly stood out. The sundried tomato guac tasted like regular guac, and I don't even remember there being onion strings though the picture I took of my burger shows that there were. My friend ordered the principal, which is a classic-style burger. I know it's supposed to be pretty plain jane but paying $10 for it just seems depressing. We shared the peach cobbler shake, which was definitely the highlight of our meal. There was tons of peach puree and cobbler crumbles to make it taste just like the real dessert. If you like the peach milkshake at Chick-fil-A, then you're going to have your mind blown after trying this one. It's also a huge portion, so it's perfectly shareable even if you're thinking you won't want to ;

*I visited during covid19. Establishment followed all guidelines and precautions, which eased my timid nerves about eating out at this time. Parking is free and plentiful. Everyone was nice and professional. My cousin enjoyed their food as well. Burger, garlic fries, and lemonade. My food was SO good. I forgot the name of my burger, but it has a grill cheese sandwich for buns and two meat patties!! I'm greedy and the burger alone filled me up! You can ask what all comes on it, but I got mostly everything (minus mustard, jalapenos). Oooo, my Oreo shake was so go! I'd go back to this place just to order a shake. That's a real compliment from me...as I only enjoy DQ ice cream (Sonic as back up) when eating out. Next time, I'll order a large oreo shake instead of a small. We enjoyed the covered patio with fans. I'd definitely eat there again! You should absolutely try it at least once! Please see and like my photos! Ty!

Whew...We had to get out of the house and the first thing the family decided to do was grab a burger. And what better place than Bernie 's. I had heard about it on either the Food Network or the cooking channel so even though it took 45 minutes to get there, we were bound and determined to eat at the famous burger bus. I ordered The Cheerleader and the Green Chile Cheese Fries and a glass of water. (I was driving..wink. I made sure to tell the waiter that I wanted my patty cooked medium and he was quick to tell me that that wouldn 't be a problem. It wasn 't long until he returned with the meal in two brown paper bags. I don 't know if that is the usually way they serve the meals but it could have been because of COVID fears and not wanting to waste paper plates or napkins or.....I don 't know. You will be glad to know that the paper-bags didn 't affect the quality or the flavor of the food.The burger was cooked perfectly and the flavor was delicious. I was surprised to taste some sweetness in the burger, which our waiter informed me were the garlic tomatoes. I wish I had been told about that earlier. I 'm not a big fan of sweet tomatoes or pickles on my burgers or hot dogs. The green chile cheese fries, though were the BOMB. I wish I could have had 2 servings. I was surprised when I received the bill, though. for three burgers, two soft drinks and one fry the bill was just over 50 USD. WOW..Delicious but not THAT delicious. [That 's the reason for the 3 stars and not a solid 4. Lamentably, as I am writing this review I found out that the site has permanently closed because of COVID concerns. Sad. It has a lot of history that will have to live on in memory alone. Three stars...I would have gone back eventually. Bye for now.
