I remember growing up on Jack's Famous Burger and Fries. They are as Great today as they were Yesterday. I live in Seagoville, yet I make the hour drive to Jack's Burger House atleast once a month! Thier seasoned salt is the secret to it all. Thier burgers are a hand full, and the boat of fries will feed two. This tiny hole in the wall restaurant is perfect for a quick afternoon lunch, or a cozy casual dinner. Not recommended for the Snobbish Upper Class Patrons! There's no tablecloths, silverwear, Breakable glasswear, or cloth napkins. This is a down to earth, blue collar eating restaurant, with people from all walks of life dinning there.
So, if you dont like mingleing with us commoners... Go else where!

AS good today as yesteryears

I WOULD NEVER EAT HERE AGAIN, EVEN IF I WAS PAID!

Still the best burger in town.

I went to Burger house for the first time last night. My initial impression was "God I hope I don't get food poisoned". Inside, it was real small, and it kind of feels like a real waffle house. I ordered a cheeseburger and fries, and while my food was being made I walked around the restaurant.

While walking around the restaurant, I began to really appriciate this diamond in the rough. I read about Jack the founder and saw the pictures of Troy Dungan (the local weatherman here in Dallas) and Conway Twitty. Then somehow I began chatting with a few customers (a couple of locals and a college student). So although it was small, it was cool because it made it a cozy atmosphere that brought people together and made it not such a lonely experience for a lonely diner.

After chatting, I got my burger and fries and found a place to eat in the small dining room. The burger was as good as any place in town. The bread was fresh, the meat was well cooked, and it was hot when I took my first bite. The fries were great too. Apparently the restaurant was one of the pioneers of seasoned fries, and I consider them to be a little better than the chili's fries. Overall the meal was excellent and I did not get sick, which was my initial worry.

I totally recommend The Burger House. It was a great experience eating there because the food was great, the staff was friendly, and the environment was a warm environment that brought people together. I hope this helps for you who have not had this place. I was in no way compensated for this review; I just thought that place was so good that I would commend it.

WHAT A JOKE!

This place was awful I remember it from years ago when it was rated very good... so we tried again.
The food is second rate and service non-existant.
The only thing I can say as far as them being rated #1 is that either they paid a lot of money to have this said or they had all the SMU students vote for them and offer something free to do such.

Who wrote that review?

UGH. You call eating by an open garbage can "charming"? At a sticky table? I've had better burgers at Burger King. It wasn't worth the trip.

For anyone who has never eaten at Jacks, stay away and leave the extras for those of us who know a great burger when we taste it. I have lived all over the country - 18 cities in all, and Jacks is without a doubt the best in the U.S. And th fries are beyond excellent. Ask for additional seasoned salt-- in fact, take home a bottle of the stuff. If you taste a better burger, let me know....................I know you won't.

I always looked forward to going to Burger House when I had school functions at SMU. The fries are so good. I just don't understand how my friends can eat the Triple Cheeseburger, since it's so big!
