The Burger Lab

Great Food, just needs a better location!I came in with my friends since they came back in town for a visit. The chef was a nice guy, real cool, however it was a bit confusing to show up and it was in a bar. The music was pretty loud so it was tough to engage in conversation with my friends.I had the Shrimp Cheese Fries, half we're wrapped in bacon and the other half deep fried. This meal was absolutely delicious!!For folks looking to come here, it is in a bar and it's off Charleston and Pecos. Their logo is on a banner by the front door, but not so visible when you first drive. The waitress at the bar was so nice, however it was tough getting there. Overall good experience!

The burger lab came to my office for lunch so we walked downstairs to check it out. I ordered the black bean veggie burger and my coworker got the classic. We also got the Cajun sweet potato fries and the onion rings.The veggie burger lacked a little flavor, but overall was very good. If I had to do it over I would get the spicy veggie burger to liven it up a bit. My coworkers classic burger was requested as medium well and it was super pink. She said it was nothing special, but not bad. Sweet potato fries were good but could have been crispier. The onion rings were SO GOOD!! The "experiment sauce" that comes with them is like a spicy honey mustard vinaigrette hybrid. It was amazing, and probably my favorite thing we ordered.Staff was nice and service was fast. I would try it again and order allllll of their onion rings

I tried out The Burger Lab at the Food Truck Bazaar last Friday. Honestly, didn't know what to expect, but I got the donut burger with fries, and it was $9. (Totally worth it.) It was sweet, and there was so much meat in that burger. (My photo probably doesn't do it justice, but let me tell you, there's always a long line at The Burger Lab, and there's definitely a reason why people go there.)

Arrived around 10 PM on a Friday. Not busy yet as everyone started showing up around 11:15.We get the menu with extensive options as impressive as the Instagram. We were excited and drove 30 minutes to be here. So we want 2 things. The hot Cheetos burrito and the carne asada shrimp fries.We start to place our order. Immediately told after we order that SURPRISE there's no carne asada. Wow ok. Early on a Friday night. My brother ordered his burger but now my friend and I have to ponder the menu again, half of which are filled with carne asada. So after brainstorming for 10 minutes, we ready to attempt to order again. Now we find that SURPRISE, there's no pork either.What?So we hastily order wings (which we could have gotten quality wings 5 minutes away from home). I mean, he's gotta have wings right?Wings come out 45 minutes later, (My brothers burger and onion rings are already demolished) and we're starving. I ask for ketchup with my fries. He says he spaced out after he brings it 10 minutes into my meal, fries are no longer fresh or plentiful (I ate most of them by this time).Time to pay. But he only takes cash which is stated nowhere on the menu. Great. So I go to the atm that costs me an extra $5COMPLETELY DISAPPOINTED.

Great spot inside of barley pops bar just ask for a menu. It does get busy so I would say be patient :)

The restaurant is located inside Barley Pops. Cool, laid back bar . Great drinking prices but the main reason I came was for the food . I ordered a bulgogi burger with cheese fries w/ no nacho cheese only made a special request for shredded cheddar cheese only . The chef Ivan was super cool asked me exactly what i wanted and even suggested great ideas . Definitely will be back to explore more of the menu because the food was amazing!!

Had some food trucks in the neighborhood; after checking them out decided to try the burger lab. Super friendly; their chalk board menu is fashioned after a periodic table and they have black bean burgers with pretzel buns; I was sold. Ordered the black bean burger with sweet potato fries. The burger was good, but wasn't super flavorful. I think I'll try the spicy one next time. The sweet potato fries are really good; I think they had Cajun salt. Whatever it was it just gave them just a little bit of heat and they were delicious. Cost about $12; worth it in my opinion. I would definitely check em out again.

The guy needs his own restaurant... He deserves it... The bar that he's in right now is really not a place that i'll ever find myself going into again. I'd have Grubhub deliver the food before I went back in there... I hope this guy gets his own place one day, he's an excellent cook and throws out an excellent product.

Walking into this place, it's a hidden gem! The restaurant is located inside Barley Pops. Great and affordable drinking prices ! But the main reason why I came was for food . I've been following the burger lab for about two years and let me tell you the food is worth any drive you make . The business is barely re opening and is not like there last location. The chef Ivan is the SERVER, CHEF AND CASHIER. If he takes a bit to get to you enjoy a beer or soda and understand it's a one man show . Mad props thou because I was a bit confused on what I wanted and he still took his time to explain to me the menu and even suggest certain things that would compliment what I was getting. I ordered a bulgogi burger , that was amazing great mix of traditional American burger w/ Korean styled beef . I also ordered cheese fries he informed me the cheese fries have nacho cheese with cheddar cheese on top . I told him I do NOT like nacho cheese and that was no issue . Chef Ivan loaded those up with extra cheddar cheese and let me tell you WOOOOW! Honestly great experience and worth ANY WAIT !

Burger Lab came in today at my job at I must say I'm pleasantly full. The wait was a bit long but good things come to those who wait. I ordered the Smoke burger and boy was it worth the wait. The meat was juicy the bacon was crisp and the sweet potato fries were perfect. I highly recommend checking out this food truck if it's ever in your area.
