Reviews for The Good News Burgers in San Antonio, TX
We headed here for burger week to try out the El Caliente burger. The price was great as well as the size of the burger. I was... disappointed however, there was very little jalapeños and onion. I never got a spicy bite. The burgers were juicy but lackingin flavor. The tots were amazing, the seasoning they put on them was great! The staff wasn't rude but wasn't very welcomingeither. Overall, sadly to say, it was a mediocre experience. Read more
We brought my mother in law for a bite to eat here on the establishment. It had two names for the restaurant "papa's burgers"... and "The Good News". We didn't know which door to walk in. It's the same place and doesn't matter which door you walk in. Theparking lot is rough. It's not completely paved and has caliche pavement. The place in side in nice, but it was a little humid.For payment they except Cash App and have an ATM. NOW TO THE FOOD! My mother in law had a veggie burger and it was okay.Nothing impressive. I had the regular burger and it was food. The bread was thick and soft. The fries were thick as well. Mywife and son enjoyed there meal as well. Drinks. You can refill your beverage. Soda or water. I think they had tea. I'm notsure. Overall it's a nice place. ???? Read more
Flavor: A Service: A Tea: A Solo dining: A The bad news is it's "cash only" but the 'good news' is that there's an fee-free ATM... or you can pay with Venmo or Cash app. Basically anything but credit cards - so you don't have to come prepared. Speaking ofprepared, the burger is prepared downright perfectly - juicy flavorful patty with a pillowy delicious bun. Tots were overcookedfor my taste and the ranch is in a packet. But other than that, everything was impressive. You should be warned that the parkinglot is designed for Chevy Spark-sized vehicles and unless there's a spot in the half closest to the street I'd turn around andvisit another day. Read more
This place is probably one of the best burger places I've ever been. The bun is amazing. Sweet and soft and moist. The meat is... grilled, the jalapeños are grilled too! This place is a must if you are close by! Read more
What a great Yelp find! I love mom & pop restaurants. We came for a very late lunch so it wasn't busy. The woman at the counter... was very friendly & helpful. We got the Original & the bacon cheese burger with fries. It took about 15minutes to get our foodwhich is pretty fast for a 1/3# burger w lots of toppings. They were delivered hot to our table with a smile. Both burgers wereoutstanding. Thet came on a homemade bakery style bun that was toasted to perfection. The bacon was just a little less thancrisp (perfect in our book). Jalapeños were the right spice & the tomatoes were very crisp & fresh. The only down side is thatI added avocados, so I expected it to come with avocado slices. Instead it came with a light layer of avocado smash. For someonewho LOVES avocado, that was a bit disappointing. The fries more than made up for that though. Big, fat, hot crispy crinkle frieswith a dusting of salt & pepper. Sooo good! My only other disappointment was that they didn't have diet coke, just coke & DrPepper. The small disappointments are greatly outweighed by the highlights of the place. I highly recommend it & will definitelygo back for more! Edit: I forgot to mention that they are cash only. Luckily we had just enough on us that day. Read more
Stopped in for lunch. Ordered the #2. A little pricy, but what isn?t today? The burger was fresh and hot. The fries were crispy... and seasoned. The burger comes with fresh cheese, lettuce, tomato, and onion. You add your own mustard, ketchup and mayo. Theburger was good. The bun had a sweetness to it that some may like. Others not. Interesting with ok flavor. Fountain drinks withfree refills. They even have Hawaiian punch! Note: this is a cash only business. However, they do have a no charge atm. Read more
Very friendly staff. The food menu has a large variety of items including homemade ice cream, fish sandwiches, chicken etc. A... place for kids and adults. Indoor or outdoor eating. Get your hamburger on! Thanks we will be back. Yum Read more
Don?t eat here, this place doesn?t give you any quality for the price you pay. I ordered a pork sandwitch, and it was absolutely... the worst sandwitch I?ve ever seen and ever tasted. The pork sandwitch was dry and had very little meat. The meat that was onthe sandwitch was so chewy that I literally had trouble bitting thhrough the meat. I finally got through the meet and the flavortasted like it was frozen meat. The flavor and the texture. The onion rings were really greasy and oily. The oil seemed to havesoaked into the batter a bit. This leads me to believe that the oil their fryer was not brought up to correct temperatures.
