Nearly Famous Burgers & Hot Dogs

Really good food and an owner who cares enough to stop, chat and ask for feedback. That's pretty great, in my opinion. I'm a fan of salty crinkle fries and these were yummy! The chili was super great as well. The lemon pepper wings were perfectly seasoned and cooked just right. Just good stuff! My one comment is about the dining room floors. They are super sticky and a little gross. We couldn't walk anywhere without our shoes sticking and that weird sticky sound was everywhere.

3.8 rating. Saturday September 2023 1:20/30 pm Parking is right outside of the establishment. Maybe 10-15 parking spaces? Inside seating maybe seats 20? 25 ? We took it to go. Cashier was very soft spoken. It was hard to hear her over the background noise of the restaurant. Ordered:Cheeseburger + tater tot (combo) $11.77Bacon cheeseburger + onion ring (combo) $11.79That price difference is a bit odd. Combos only come with the burger and side. Drinks are a la carte. $4.02 for both drinks. The strawberry lemonade option was terrible. Tasted like water. We think it was out- but it was a rich color. Got sprite instead, which was good. Food came out in like 5 minutes. -------Burgers were mid. Not in my top ten. I wouldn't return for burgers, but maybe to try the hot dogs. Lacked seasoning. The taste of the tomato on the burger overpowered the meat, since it didn't have much flavor. Cheese was nicely melted on the burger. It was an ok size. The tater tots were some of the best I've had. Couldn't finish them all. The size tater tot could be split between two people. The Onion rings can't though.... They were good too. Spicy ketchup wasn't good imo. Some of the Ketchup packets were sticky. . I believe you get charged If you use your card for purchase. My friend used cash and it was a different price. The owner takes feedback well and I only knew about this restaurant because he posted in a foodie group on Facebook. I stated I would come out and try it, and I did. If the burgers get a diff season blend, and/or hand formed Patties (these were perfectly circular) I would come back and try them again.

Nearly Famous burgers & dogs in Arlington might need to drop the Nearly part of their name based on seeing an article about them, as well they had been mentioned a lot in the Arlington foodie group that I'm in. (I have a lot of friends in that area.) Happened to be over in that area and went ahead to try them out. Tucked in a small shopping center in what feels like the main road thru a lot of residential areas, this is a small town burger joint hidden in a bigger city. So for how the restaurant looks, very much small town burger place down to the you could tell the floor is clean but it's got that stick thing going on. (My only real complaint cause I don't care for the stick sound.) We let eachother try each others items. Of course what we got, I recommend the burger. We had the regular cheeseburger, side note it comes with mustard as it should in TX! Though the Chicago dog came with so much in the way of toppings. I feel if we had gotten one without relish I would have liked it as well. They use Nathan's dogs for those that need to know, as well there is a beyond burger option for the veggie/vegan crowd. One of us got the basket that came with fries, and that was enough for the both of us. For sure worth the try if you are in the area. Im going to get a feel for what else is near by to see if it's going to stick in our regular rotation.

The service was great. The ambiance was chill with calming music and a free Pac-man game that my daughter enjoyed. Our food was amazing and the onion rings were delicious!

The hot dog was delicious! And the burgers were really good too. Perfect Char on pattie. The girl behind the counter with the lip piercings was very nice and kind. But the young man that took our order was very rude. Other than that it was really good food. Clean and outside seating

I visited here today after reading about this place in Arlington Real Foodies Facebook group. I was not disappointed. The kraut dog was delicious and there were chopped fried onions in the sauerkraut. The French fries were freshly cooked. The place was kind of off the beaten track--I've lived in Arlington since 1991 and didn't know it was here, nestled in a quiet area of Little Road. My only suggestion is to sell smaller portions of the French fries as there was clearly 2-3 servings of fries on my plate and I had to throw some away. Next time, I'll bring a friend and we can share the fries. I will definitely go back. Price around $10 for the dog and French fries.

Went for the first time and perhaps I just went on a bad day. Got a cheeseburger Thin patty not much flavor a bit dry. Lettuce Tomato Onion were good but way too much in proportion the meat.Crinkle Cut fries were also a bit soggy.Wanted to like this place but found it to be just all very average.

Always passed this place up on my way to Kroger from Woodside Drive. One day I had a routine doctor's visit and was really craving a burger afterwards. While my go to burger spot is at Parks Mall didn't feel like mobbing that way and searched in my area and found Nearly Famous. I'm a sucker for a catchy named establishment and the proximity to my house was unmatched. I walked in and it was busy, which is always a happy site to see, but there was only one worker who I think was the owner, but he was taking it all in stride with the multiple orders that he had. Inside is plentyful seating but a little tight. It's a simple establishment to eat your burger and go. After talking with some other polite, patient patrons, my loaded fries and double cheeseburger were ready in about 15 minutes. Establishment also has an amazing "pay it forward" policy that you should inquire about if you don't already know about it. If you like to be a bit philanthropic or looking for a good deed to do for the day, you can help someone in need by contributing. When I got home and started eating, everything was absolutely delicious. I added some avocado to my burger, and I am absolutely stoked that I have them within arms to reach of my house.

Great burgers. The one with Hurtado's brisket is amazing. Nice little place. Will definitely be back.

I went back after neighbors were raving about it. So went and got it to go. Got a double cheeseburger and a chili cheese dog. Again the chili cheese dog was excellent with a great weiner, ok chili, but...they forgot mustard and onions . That kind of laziness or indifference just hacks me off. And then the burger...I should like it better but it has real problems, staring with the meat. It's overworked, resulting in a very tough burger. The meat was dry and underseasoned, with a greasy taste. It led me to believe it was precooked then rewarmed on the grill when ordered. The bun was ok, the pickles were a wad instead of spread out, mustard too light. So disappointing. Convinced again if I returned to get only hot dogs.
