review :: We've been hearing a lot about Lankford burgers, even rated pretty high among most critics out there. Their hours aren't always suitable for us but we were able to check it out today. The line was out the door, it was unbelievable. In this Houston heat at high noon, I was surprised people were actually waiting for a table to eat.

I ordered the old fashion cheeseburger with french fries and A&W. Also, with the request of the man behind the counter, I also tried out the Abita root beer. Hands down, the Abita was so much better than the A&W, I'm so glad that I tried it.

As for the cheeseburger, all the way with a side of fries, it was pretty large and juicy. Be sure to keep part of the burger wrapped up or you'll have all the juices dripping off your fingers. The flavor of the meat was actually bland, I was expecting a little bit more flavor. If you ordered a dry burger, I think you may be a little disappointed in the flavor. The fries weren't anything to call home about, it tasted as though it were the frozen kind.

Overall, if you'd like a good juicy burger, this little joint is for you, just be aware of their hours.
