Adrian (the chef) was featured in Texas monthly for his outstanding smashburger….he along with Frank and David did and outstanding job. The smash burger was DELICIOUS I highly recommend the Brussel sprouts… My cousin Bob got the fried chicken which I didn’t take a picture of but…. He was nice enough to cut me off of you so I taste it in it was exceedingly moist, crispy and delicious.

The Smash Burger is massive. I had it with waffle fries. The burger was served so hot, I could not pick it up. It comes with pickles and onions on the side. The fries come with an Utah style fry sauce. I am on a burger quest in RVG and this one is the top of the list. This is a food court with shared tables. The other restaurants looked really interesting. Next time!

I had the fried chicken, waffle fries, brussels sprouts, and pork rinds. The sauces they included were incredibly well-matched for this meal… sprouts done perfectly as well. Chicken was super tender and juicy. I will be back to try the smashburger and other menu items, loved it here.

This was my first time trying their smash burger, and the size of the burger is very generous and the sauce they gave me with the fries was really good.
The bun was good, and the meat was okay.
Overall the burger was okay, but I felt it was lacking ingredients for an enhanced flavor, perhaps grilled onions or veggies, perhaps i’ll try something else in the future.

My friend Leo recommend this place since I was craving smash burgers, so I tried it out. The burger was great a little to salty for my taste, but meat was juicy and crispy. The fries were waffle fries and they tasted a lot better then chick-fil-a. They seam more homemade and natural, very good. The place was great there was seating and can walk off the fullness once your done.

Joelene’s is in the Mercado district in McAllen which is like a miniature mall with tiny adorable bazaar-type shops and a really nice food court. It’s very clean, cute and new and all the restaurants are a really good quality. There are tvs everywhere with music. Perfect bustling atmosphere which was great for lunch and that’s when we went here. You order and they text you when it’s ready. We got the fried spare ribs, fried chicken platter and the smash burger. Everything was so delicious and excellent and couldn’t have tasted much better.

Mac and cheese wasn’t hot. It was barely warm. Also it was an excessive amount. You should offer half and half sides or mention how big the sides are. Mac was mid. Nothing crazy.
Coke wasn’t cold. Felt like they barely threw it in the fridge when I ordered.
My burger was lopsided. Cook didn’t even try to center the patties. Cashier didn’t even explain what their type of beef was. She just gave a generic answer.
Food was 7/10 nothing crazy. Won’t be trying it again.
I except to be blown away if I pay 15$.

Jolene’s has a good menu and I felt that the prices were really great. Their chicken sandwich didn’t disappoint and we enjoyed the pimento cheese with crackers. The Brussels sprouts were on point and roasted exactly as they should be. Overall I enjoyed it and will be returning!
