Pino Burger

Hamburger w/ bacon 8/10Fries 8/10A coworker of mine who was born and raised in Laredo has been telling me that this is his favorite place for burgers. The burger had great taste. Fresh patty with perfect amount of seasoning. The bacon was crunchy and the slice of ham enhanced the flavor. The Grande is filling and the fries were pretty good too. A bit smaller and they would have reminded me of the Freddy's frozen custard fries. Only thing I would do differently is ask them to toast the bread more. Looks like they threw it on the grill enough to give it marks. I will definitely be back if a burger craving hits me while I am in town.

At the recommendation of a coworker, I tried this little hole in the wall hamburger place today. I arrived around noon and there was plenty of parking in the parking lot. The exterior's appearance, along with no customers inside, had me questioning my coworker's judgment. Upon walking in, we were greeted by friendly staff members and told to take a seat where ever we would like. We promptly seated ourselves and enjoyed "Careless Whisper" playing from the speakers above us. The kitchen was very smoky, and the pleasant aroma of a tasty cheeseburger was wafting around the dining area. I ordered the #1 combo, and my friend who tagged along with me ordered the #8 combo. We sat there and enjoyed a few more of the 80's pop hits, and received our burgers faster than you can say "Billie Jean is not my lover.." Now, I dive into the burger. The burger's appearance was nothing spectacular and was your basic cheeseburger. Nothing more, nothing less. After taking one bite into the burger, the burger was a bit too dry for my liking. The seasoning was ok, nothing spectacular. The fries were just your basic, boring, fries. My friend enjoyed his burger and said he liked the addition to ham to his burger (no pun intended there. There really was ham in the burger). The fast and pleasant service was great, the staff were very friendly, and overall was satisfied with my experience. I was in and out of here in 20 minutes. I would say my coworker must have a very boring palate and missed the mark with his raving review of this place. This place is good in pinch, or if you just want a cheap, blah burger.

Been going down to Laredo every Sunday and enjoying a different place for lunch each time with my boo. This time he introduced me to Pino Burger! It's small and cozy on the inside. We choose to eat outside on their back patio! Not apparent at first, but as soon as you walk out you'll find an awesome covered patio - perfect for those sunny days when the sun might be a little too much, but homegurl still wants to be outside. There's even a patch of grass with some rock fountain going on!I ordered a BBQ rancho burger and he ordered una hamburguesa rodeo grande. They also had a million other things I wanted to try like burritos, tacos & appetizer items, but your homeboy wanted that Laredo cheeseburger experience. We also ordered some aquas frescas (pina & melon), which I noticed wasn't on the menu. Our orders came with fries and a bowl of jalapeños. My Rancho burger... where do I even begin? IT WAS AMAZING. Yes, there was ham... A LITERAL HAM in my hamburger along with the beef patty, smashed avocado, bbq whatever carne, cheese and you know what? IT WAS SO GOOOOOD. The french fries were great, nothing to complain about. The bread of the burger definitely tasted different from what I've ever had. It felt denser than most hamburger buns I've ever had, in a good way!The service was nothing to complain about. The prices are definitely great for what you get. I would recommend this place to anybody in the area!

The best burger in Laredo! Always made fresh and served hot. I also liked the fajita burritos with cheese and avocado.

Burgers are ok. But $3.30 for an order of small fries is ridiculous! We won't be going there anytime soon. Orderd 3 small fries with our burgers.

I'm sorry i will post this this is not even the same pino burger i went on Tuesday,but since the location did not show up. i will have to post it here. well i went on Tuesday on the one in Shilow and The Burger made me Sick for 3 Days with Diarrhea,Fever,headache and Chills.you Guys need to Check on the Back that Everything is Done Fresh or Whose doing these burgers. i missed a Day of work only to Recover from the Stomach infection. well with That Said i Wouldn't Recommend this place at all.

I love how they have a machine outside to ring that they have arrived for your to go orders. You do not have to call them or get down. They will bring the food out to you! Food is amazing. One of the best burgers in town.

Are you kidding me? This is an acquired taste. It's a Nuevo staple but in Texas I don't think it compares to local places such as Chanos or state wide options like Hopdoggy or In N Out. It's fast food that sits you down. Can sodas and fountain drinks in a white cup. Also you got a small confined space to sit. Don't bring kids. Burger has too much cheese. Fries seem like they were frozen and store bought.I really wanted to like this place. I didn't try their burritos or tacos: maybe I should have but burgers and fries aren't that great. Location is great, has so much potential. Service was amazing, hence 2 stars.

After ultimately deciding on this place over Yukon and Tlaque Plaque, Riri and I drove on up to Pino burger. An old coworker had mentioned the place a while back, and i'd been craving it since then. We walked in and saw that the small interior was packed to the brim (perhaps due to the strong winds today), so I led us to the back patio. Service was great:I remember it looked a little nicer before the landscaping shop next door closed, but it still had a nice little patch of grass and a rock fountain. Not that it mattered, CAUSE I HAD COME TO EAT!!!! A 2.5 hour drive had made me hungry. The waitress was quick to attend us, though Riri and I had gotten lost in conversation the first time she stopped by for our drink order. I was especially thankful that she kept us informed on our wait time; they have their own cute little outside grill. Food is great; price is phenomenal:I got the Rodeo Burger (Grande obviously). It tasted amazing; Cilantro and avocado are God's gift to the Earth. That being said the burger meat itself did seem a little lackluster... Nothing these skillet fries can't make up for though. *drools remembering the thought of DEM FRIES* HOWEVER, they don't have any Heinz ketchup. Riri said this wasn't worth mentioning on the review, but i beg to differ. Anyway, he ordered some chipotle BBQ burger. He didn't finish it, so he offered me his leftovers--I know, he's a cutie. While I welcomed the taste of the sauce on the patty despite its tanginess, I missed the cilantro and avocado flavor. Sorry boo; I got the better dish this round. Anyway, the very filling dishes came out to the very reasonable price of $18 including some jalapeños en vinagre and some decent aguas frescas. Final Thoughts:I know I'm definitely stopping by again.

When I crave a burger in Laredo, this is my go-to. The doble is perfection! That said, if you're not feeling a burger, their burritos are fantastic - I prefer al pastor, but he fajita is delectable, too. The fries are always good, as is the guacamole. And I've never had bad service at either location. I will continue to frequent Pino Burger as long as I can eat meat.
