Becks Prime #1? I mean it's pretty good and all but that's kind of mind blowing considering all the good burgers coast to coast.

Did they only rate fast-food chains?

Becks is really good if you want a backyard/grilled style burger. If you want a griddle style, then that's a different category. I don't think it's the best in the country, though.

There was another one of these survey deals with just restaurants that had a similar outcome. Their methodology favors big chains.

If you are constipated, Becks Prime will fix that.

Any burger with a sweet bun should automatically not qualify.
It is so easy to be wrong—and to persist in being wrong—when the costs of being wrong are paid by others.

The only redeeming quality of Becks is location: people watching in the tunnels or Memorial Park is a good time.

Agree.

Has a new location in Fulshear, and one soon to open in Katy at Peek & Fry.

Can anything new be said about burger rankings?

Unless you're knowingly going into something ridiculously cheap, you're going to get at least a 7. If it's a place that has been around a while, you're going to be good. It's grease and cheese, they're not splitting the atom back there.

Only redeeming quality? Beck's might be expensive as **** but you know you enjoy it for more than just people watching.

This. Once you get past places like McDonalds, most burgers are going to be pretty good. Really comes down to personal preference.

Ok, so relatively new.

The original on Mason across from the Academy buildings is what, roughly 5 years old?

I really enjoy a Becks Prime burger from time to time as long as someone else is paying for it.

I've not had a Becks burger in a while but I'm still pretty happy with my number 1 choice being the burger at Pappas BBQ. JLB is also super good.

Maybe not best in the nation but Wimpy's downtown has my vote for best Tine burger.

Such a good spot. Hope he's survived the COVID mess.

Agreed.

Wimpy's is a damn good burger.

All you tunnel dwellers go up the escalator into the Hyatt, through the lobby and out through the exit by the valet and its about 25 yards around the corner.
