Pretty much all of the independent restaurants here are underpriced if you ask me.

We are actually pretty fortunate at the value they all offer

I think that the Tad's being built by the Lowe's in CS can be considered dead.

They put the slab in and a simple frame....and then stopped. That was in August. I pass by there almost daily and haven't seen a single person on the site in months.

Still listed on their coming soon page. I ate at one a month or so ago and it was nothing special except the wings appetizer, which was really good. Complicating things was the training of a new server which bogged things down and prolonged the stay. Probably give them another chance anyway, but I lIke Walkons better.

GMO free ketchup? You know there is no such thing as a GMO tomato, right?

GMO or no GMOs, Burger Mojo is uh-mazing. We had the Rebel Yell burger , Snuff the Rooster chicken, Mojo burger and Queso Supernova fries. All were great, the avacado salsa I would jar and sell. Boots Beverages on the fountain is always a bonus. The fries man, the fries...

Not a fan of that type of marketing. They may be amazing but I won't spend my money there

Yup and scare tactic marketing combined with science illiteracy is something I'm willing to fight against.

UGH! How do y'all learn of these soft openings?! I wanted to go to this one SO bad.

Either way, the menu for this place looks amazing, and priced well to boot. If the burgers live up to the hype, they'll offer stiff competition for the other two burger joints on University.

It is easily at the top of my list of go to meal options. I'm not going to over analyze a burger but this was what I look for in a hamburger, at a price I am willing to pay, with great options, top notch fries, Boots soda, fast and friendly...

Parking is my only concern, it is limited, I was going to ask Andreas* if they have any agreement with parking at embassy suites garage.

*the only reason we got to enjoy tonight is that I teach his kiddos and have been hounding him in the pick - up line at school.

Matt,
So nice meeting you and your family. Thank you kindly for the compliments. We are working hard to deliver the best product at a great value.

Aggiebarstool,
We have a private event tomorrow. However, I am personally inviting you to come in to try us out. Please email me at info@eccellgroup.com so I can get your pedigree info. and we can make that happen.

trouble,
That non GMO claim to the ketchup is simply a verification from nongmoproject.org. The ketchup is indeed free of high fructose corn syrup.

We are so happy and feel so fortunate to have this opportunity.

Good night everyone!

Costa

The non GMO project is exactly the kind of marketing I'm talking about.

I scored an invite to the soft opening via a FB post a couple months back. Looking forward to lunch tomorrow!

Does anyone know if there is a back way into the parking lot? Trying to avoid a u-turn on Univ during the lunch rush.

Thank you so much! It's been a pleasure serving everyone and meeting new people.

I look forward to more!

After we get some serious reps in and get better at our craft, I can't wait to start our "wbf" (weekly burger feature). Andreas and I intend to use that as vehicle to start putting some fun, atypical, and sometimes radical items out there.

Right now I'm thinking "El Toro". It's definitely going to involve brisket. This should be fun!!

We are working on a product that will meet several standards for production, price and quality. Hopefully we can have something in the near future.

Went to Burger Mojo's soft opening. Food was yummy, atmosphere was fun, and pricing is great! I anticipate my husband and 3 small kids can get in and out for $25...which is hard to beat.

There's a sign for Shogun Restaurant up in Tower Point behind/next to Gold's at the top of the hill (behind Freddy's).

Dinosaur Egg Float Spa announced on their FB page that they are closing as of Dec 31

The City of Bryan is looking to bring a concept like this:
to the new Midtown Super Park. This one is called Chicken N Pickle. Looks pretty cool and I could see it always being busy. Here is more info:

I was surprised at the small size of the lunch crowd a week or so ago. I hadn't been there in a while.

There is a chicken n pickle in my hometown in Kansas and it is packed like crazy! People love it and it's a great place to hang out and have a good time with your kids and also has a bar and hang out for adults. This would be a home run addition to a growing town.

Yay! This makes me (and the gaggle of vegans in town) very happy!
