Lankford's - Bellaire

"I ordered the Grim Reaper burger, some fried green tomatoes, and a glass of wine. The food was great! Other than a great atmosphere, the staff were extremely attentive and the pricing was very reasonable. In terms of alcohol, there’s a full bar, and a beer wall. This would be an ideal spot of a casual get together or for watching games."

"Where to start. We had never been to the original location in Midtown, and had not tried this location yet. WHY NOT? The food is excellent (cheeseburgers and tater tots), the staff is friendly and very polite, and the atmosphere is first rate. When ordering a burger, if you liked flame grilled patties, make sure you ask for it. I’m sure the flattop grill is fine, but a flame cooked burger is so much better. The patty was cooked just as requested, the cheese was melty and the veggies were fresh and crisp. It is served on a brioche bun. The tots were perfect; very crunchy outside and almost creamy inside. We didn’t even use ketchup with them, they were so good. The next trip we’ll try the onion rings, as that is my favorite side with a burger. I hope they are equal to the tots. We were greeted at the door with a big hello, told to pick a table and had drinks brought very quickly, along with menus. Management was very present and interfaced with all the guests as well as the staff. You could tell the staff is very happy here and it really shows. The restaurant is clean, my wife said the ladies room is clean and the whole place not only smells good, but is spotless and shines. They have happy hour specials and a full service bar as well as a wall of pour your own beer taps. By all means, if you haven’t tried this location yet, be sure to do so. The only down side, although very small, is the iced tea is less than satisfactory. Stick with water or a fountain drink instead. It definitely wasn’t worth the price."

"Friendly staff, came and checked on us consistently. Went with the grim burger, cooked medium just like I asked. Mac and cheese was great and one of my favorite toppings on a burger which can make or break it. Crispy bacon and egg slapped on here too? Yes please I’ll take two. Will come back to try the Grim Reaper which - somehow - is larger than this burger."

"The BEST burger in all of Houston. I've been a huge fan of Lankford's for years. Now that the Bellaire location is open, I am fast becoming a regular. Their burgers are hands down my favorite burger in Houston. Their sides are also good, especially the onion rings. I also like their extensive choices of beers on tap. Our server, Beyonce, was friendly and very attentive. She made our experience even more wonderful."

"We heard about the new location near us in Meyerland and enjoyed it. Everyone enjoyed their burgers, I ordered the Grim grilled with tater tots and loved it 4 out of 5. The tots were crispy and the burger was juicy and had a great flavor. The drinks took awhile as our server also made the drinks before taking and placing our order. It’s a new location and working out a few kinks. Overall, we enjoyed the atmosphere, service and the food and drinks were great and will be back to try more. They have a full bar and wide selection of beers on tap which you pay by the ounce."
