good but not for the price – it was a good hamburger, very greasy and meat a little over cooked but not bad, also NOT great, especially for the price you would think it was gourmet by how much they charge, and how the hell can you have burgers with out fries!!!??? the one thing i did love was their jalapeno potato salad, excellent

yum – Okay, I will admit we were a little freaked out when Grandpa pulled up to this place that got such a wonderful review in the newspaper, oh the greatest burger in town, to find pretty much- a shack. Once inside and the food coming we were all eased and the food was wonderful... no fries though! Grandpa takes up for them "There's not room in there to cook fries!!". Either way, the burger makes up for it, I didn't have a buffalo burger, but Grandpa and Grandma said they were excellent. A very great place with quite a pers... read more

Great burgers and atmosphere. – Yes this is a romantic location for those that appreciate life to it's fullest. You gotta have a good love of life to see the romance of the place. I had one of my best dates ever at Bubba's. No I would not say it's good for children. People don't watch their kids and it's close to dangerous traffic. At any moment someone could run off the road. And the building is cramped...ok for kids if the food is take out.

The Ultimate Hole-in-the-Wall – No doubt the best burgers in town. It may look a little scary when you drive by it but that is the draw for this Westpark landmark. The service is friendly, the food is made when you order it and the beer is cheap. The Double Buffalo Cheeseburger is to die for.

Bubba's Buffalo Burgers are Best ! – Bubba's has been serving "Buffalo" (100% American Bison) longer than anywhere else in Houston... and it shows by the top quality of their buffalo burgers, chili, etc. Bubba's history defines it as a true "Texas-Icehouse" and it's friendly, down-home atmosphere reflects that. Despite it's small size, Bubba's has a vast selection of soft-drink refreshments and the list of beers they offer include most of those brewed by a local Houston micro-brewery named after a 6th-century patron Saint of... read more

Makes you feel at home – These are definitely some of the best burgers in Houston, in a no frills, come as you are, have a beer and kick back type atmosphere. As far as ambience goes, it's not very romantic, but it's perfect for a burger place, because burgers are meant to be enjoyed in a relaxed atmosphere. And yes the buffalo burgers are very tasty.
