OC Burgers

It’s probably one of the better burger joints around. Skip the In and Out burger and check out OC. When we pulled up, the parking lot was virtually full. We lucked out and found the only open space. It’s a good sign when the joint is full. I thought I was going to wait a while to get my food, but surprisingly, the food came out almost right away. The burgers we hot, tasty and flame kissed. You can taste it! The staff is very friendly. I’m glad these guys decided to leave Cali and make Texas their home. I know they are glad, too. We’ll be coming back for sure!

OK, I hate doing this, but I must be honest about everything that I write. This place looked very promising and was lightly crowded, all of which suggested we were in for a burger treat. The building is very modern and nicely done on the outside. The inside is a complete open concept, is exceedingly clean, has a self-service drink station, and had plenty of options to sit. I ordered the mushroom Swiss with a grilled jalapeño kick with onion rings and she ordered the OC burger with fries. When the burgers came, they looked hearty and beautiful, half-wrapped in paper and the burger spilling out invitingly. Fries were OK and the onion rings were mediocre and tasted like they thawed some Walmart frozens. However, here’s the problem: The burgers are made with two patties but they were paper thin and it’s just impossible to control cooking meat of that thickness. They were charred cardboard and reminded me of a few trips my kids made me take to Freddy’s Custard & Steakburgers. Flavor was nonexistent. This is just not my style and frankly I can’t believe anyone really likes it. They were all dressed up with the LTO and looked ready to dance, but snubbed me. For the first time in ages, I just stopped eating and sat in disappointment, She ended up stopping too and we left unimpressed. Sadly I can’t put any stamp of approval on at least the burger part of the menu. I understand they have other things like chicken options and apparently they are making a stab at some Mexican dishes. I would have to see those to believe them, but I would go that route if ever I were to return. The entry door faces South and the wall where you stand in line faces West with lots of windows. As you can see in one of my outside pics, the setting sun is a beast of a glare. They need some sun shades for sure.

This burger and fry combo tasted so good! Just the right amount of char-flavor and grease haha I love that they had Pepsi products because I love a nice fountain Mountain Dew Very friendly service. The #1 combo was $13.51. For a splurge on a good burger, I definitely recommend!
