Really good onion rings! The burger could have used a little more seasoning but was good overall, nice and fresh. The cherry dump cake was very flavorful (and a nice surprise, I haven’t had a dump cake in years). The staff was friendly and moved quickly. It’s located inside a convenience store, so seating is limited. Definitely going back to try the meatloaf.

One of the best burgers i’ve ever eaten in my life. Good and fresh, good and hot, good vibes and service. Do not miss out on this beast. Will be back over and over again

My friend said he heard on the radio that this the best burger on the island. He said he’d been back three times and still believes it’s the best he’s ever had. (And he’s a retired international airline pilot.) So we decided to try it today. This place definitely lives up to the hype. They’ll customize. Try the fresh-battered-in-the-store-today onion rings. Don’t expect ambiance. It’s a convenience store. Expect a GREAT classic American hamburger.

Funny enough, this ended up being my favorite place we ate at in Galveston on our vacation. I randomly found it based on reviews as it was not planned at all. I got the shrimp po boy and it did not disappoint! Very delicious, crispy, and a large portion. My wife got the burger with onion rings and she enjoyed it a lot. My kids for the grilled cheese and fries; no complaints. The lady’s cooking in the kitchen were very nice and patient with us newcomers. Just a heads up that this is inside of a gas station with three or so tables. Not a ton of room to eat but it was fine for our family. I will come back for sure.

Yeah this place is a hidden gem for burgers in Galveston. Save big $$ from name brand chains or places on the seawall that are selling an inferior product for more. This place is great. Big menu and good service. Would suggest calling in for pickup but didn’t mind waiting

There’s no way I can cook this food for what they charge for it it’s always wonderful I’m glad they don’t have a lot of signs out front because it would be way too crowded. I had the special today which was shrimp gumbo and cornbread oh my gosh it was great!

Patty melt was good. Friendly staff. Shared space with Valero gas station. Easy to miss unless you’re really looking for it.

This place is great with burgers that make it feel worth the cost, which is less than almost all other places on the island. Mel’s is in a gas station, but they are still very nice with some tables set up. The burgers themselves are great, but not the most flavorful considering the size of the patties. They give you plenty of fries and you will not feel gypped like some other resturants around. I will be going back to this place the next time we visit Galveston.

Hands down the best burgers and fries and hand dipped onions rings on the island! Add in the amazing customer service that the girls provide and you will have yourself a great meal! The prices are amazing as well, especially for the island!
