Reviews of Tookie's
Haley
Wow, what a great place to eat.
Very comfortable dining experience with great atmosphere.
The food was hot and fresh with great detail to their flavoring.
Also I was very impressed at all the waitstaff how they work together to provide top-notch service.
Great location with a view of the marina just outside.
Also menu is priced very budget-friendly.
I was greeted at the front door by the manager and his assistant with a smile and friendly conversation.
Don't miss out on a great experience.
Linda Vernon
It just don't get any better.. Ashley was friendly and did a great job.. and oh man those burgers are big and delicious.. but you better be hungry .I just had the bacon cheeseburger and my partner had the hamburger. Those hula hoop onion rings and fresh French fries were also fabulous. You can't go wrong with those.. we loved every bite and the service..I did ask for crispy fries and didn't get them but they were still very tasty. She offered to take them off but no way. We ate them and they were great..I just like mine cooked a little longer. Head on over there fast as you can.. it was only 24 bucks with waters for drinks

Great flavor! Great food!
On the 99, we was able to taste the wine. I really enjoyed the burger. I managed to eat half. Onion rings where really good as well.
Will come again. Glad its close to home!
UrLove Jess
First time here. Everything was a 10/10 for me and my kids. Their burgers were good, my BLT and onion rings were good and our fried Pickles were also good. Also, our waiter was excellent! Super friendly and attentive.
Angie Martinez
I really mean this when I say this was one of the best burgers I have ever had! All the food and drinks were delicious. A place we will definitely be going back too.
Mark Beddes
Fantastic dinner! We came rolling out of the place with a family of 6 and spent under $60. Worth every penny. The food was great and the service was even better. Highly recommend!
Julie Ewell
I cannot say enough good things about Tookie's! First of all the staff is amazing, and friendly and the food is always delicious. The portions are enormous and their prices are so cheap. This place has something for everybody. It's family friendly and good for drinks and date night. I am a repeat customer for life.
Perry Poon
This place has great service. Jessica my waitress is awesome. She'll come and check if I need anything else every so often. I had the double burger and fries. They are good. Got a nice view of the marina from my seat. Overall, a good place to grab lunch.
alli graham
Great food and great service. All of it was very tasty. Excellent value. You really get more bang for your buck here.
Geno Jessmone
Pretty nice burger joint. I was in the mood to try the chili cheese dogs. Well I should have had a burger instead. The dogs were not to bad but the burgers looked better.
A.H. Schisler
I have been eating at Tookie’s since it opened in 1975. I started with the Tookie Rookie Cheeseburger and now only order #99. Onion rings are amazing. It is still the best burger in town!
Factor - ade
My girlfriend and her family has been talking about this place for a while now. Finally it's my chance to try it. I ordered the pelican eggs and chesse sticks for appetizers to start off with. For my main dish, I ordered the stomp's ice house special. Which is supposed to be their hottest burger. Honestly I barely felt heat from it. My girlfriend and her daughter ordered the lettuce be chessey burger and the t-bird chicken sandwich, and when your talking about a chicken sandwich. That chicken piece was huge on that sandwich!! Service was great. Food was great, I'll definitely be back one day!!
Jeannette McGaha
Tookies has been serving hamburgers since 1975 and the quality is still as good! I had a Tookies burger and swapped mustard for Mayo. It was amazing!! Great burger, great fries, great beverages and great servers!
Jeff Villarreal
Have a burger 🍔 tailored to your liking prepared to perfection.
Best onion rings ever thick , thin or huli hoop tiny. Big portions high quality. Local favorite
Hector Contreras
Fast, friendly, and fabulous! We split the burger and boudin balls. Plenty of food for two! Our server, Cierra, was very nice and helpful. Great atmosphere and view of the marina.
Tiffany Lemasters
Have never had a bad experience here. Food is delicious. Tookies has ruined onion rings for me anywhere else. Make sure to get their homemade ranch dressing, even if your not a ranch person. Staff is always laid back, never feel rushed but get great service.
Nicole C
The drinks and food were delicious! Mojito with blackberry flavoring was so refreshing. The fried pickles were perfectly fried and not greasy at all. Boudin balls were also perfectly crispy and had so much flavor. Burgers were great. Staff was friendly and our waitress was super helpful, giving us all her recommendations. Great place to eat near Kemah!
Ren Rudawski
Food was great. Waitress was informative. Flavored lemonade was tasty. Enjoyed looking at decor while visiting
James Lauer
Best cheese sticks hands down.
Great prices, burgers are well seasoned and flavorful.
Service is excellent, very clean inside and out.
Will eat here again
juan astorga
Great place to eat a burger and eat fried pickles, onions and mushrooms. When I go back to Houston i will definitely come back again.
Joshua Robbins
I was recommended by a friend to eat here. Walked all the way over from Kemah Boardwalk and it was definitely worth it. Onion rings and fried pickles were hot, fresh, and crisp! While the burgers were juicy and filling. French fries were average, not bad but nothing super special. Our waitress, Abigail, was very friendly and observant to when we needed refills on our drinks without us requesting it (I love that). Highly recommend Tookies for all burger connoisseurs.
Joaquin Arellano
Price 10-14 a person.
Burgers are massive! Would recommend to any one.
Staff is fast as soon as they get to you
Desiree Willson
Highly recommend! Huge portions and amazing food. Great atmosphere and friendly staff. I ordered BLT and hula hoops they were delicious!!
franklyfarran
Great burgers with a lovely view! We enjoy watching the boats come and go, and they have good outdoor seating. The staff is kind and attentive. Try the fried mushrooms or boudin balls! My only complaint is I wish the music was a little louder; nice playlist if you like classic rock!
Priscilla Pena-Jacobs
The atmosphere was fun and very family-friendly! Just load up your family and no special attire. Just come as you are environment! The food is AMAZING! Burgers are big, but the fried chicken sandwiches are bigger!!! I absolutely love this burger joint and for the prices.....you can't beat it!
Suggestion: orders of fries and onion rings are very large proportions. One order can be shared amongst 2 or 3 people.
Have fun and enjoy the food in a fun, busy environment!
Michael G.
Great place to visit after spending the day at the amusement park. Good burgers and the pelican eggs were very good morning service was excellent
Steph Apie
Our food was great. Jessica our server did an awesome job. I will go back!
N San
I miss the old tookies! The burger used to be A+! The service was excellent though! Shout out to our Waitress, Kyla! And the drink prices were very reasonable!
Felisha Denney
I am a picky person, GiGi was my waitress and for the first time in years my order was perfect! She is amazing! Thank you for a great experience and she was very kind! I loved it!!! I will ask for her for future visits! The Big Bang BLT was amazing
Victoria Morales
Huge burgers!! Boudain balls were amazing -- fried pickles and mozzarella too! All of the food was super good and came out quick and fresh. Ask for Jessica -- she was awesome!
Ashley Roche
Came in town for kemah boardwalk stopped in for dinner about 9pm. The food is just amazing. Taylor the server definitely is one of the best by far. I might just come in for the service. Management and owners please treat this girl right she is a awesome server. I'm over all super happy with everything. Thank you 😊
Chris Lee
Went here for the first time last night and wow. Madison was just amazing as our server. Her recommendations were awesome! Service was stellar and we'll certainly be back!
Only issue was chili was a bit.... different for us but the manager fixed that immediately.
Gianna Croegaert
Brought my family of 7 (including myself, 3 adults and 3 children) this afternoon. Marlene, our server, was incredible!! Coming as a server myself, I was very impressed. Our drinks were always full, she was very accommodating for our modifications and more importantly she was just amazing with my nieces. We come to Tookies every year when we visit my sister for Christmas and this is why. The food is delicious but even more, the service is always top level. They always go above and beyond. Thank you to the entire staff for making Tookies a staple in our annual Christmas trip!!
LaTrice Gardner
It was our first time and everything was on point. Our server Alyssa was so awesome. She was very attentive and friendly. I absolutely loved the food, atmosphere very family friendly, and the service as well, we will definitely go again.
Carol Martinez
A little bit over priced but the taste is good. The reason I am giving this establishment a 3 star is because of the wait time to get a table or to-go orders- which is more than 10 minutes. When you enter the restaurant there is a hosts desk and the majority of the time, no one is there. I had placed a to go order, they told me it would take about 15 minutes. I arrived within 25 minutes ; when I got there, the order wasn't ready. I waited at at the hosts desk for 10 minutes when she finally arrived she mentioned I needed to pick up my order at the bar. At bar, I waited about 6 minutes till the bar lady asked if I needed anything. I told her I was there for a pick up, only, so she could tell me the hostess at the front had it? I went back to the front, I told the same lady I was still there for my order, she then said it's on its way!!!???? This was absurd, if when I arrived there, there was1 a sign stating pick up orders here, I would have been out of there within the initial 15 minutes. I understand everyone has to wait, but it was not professional how I was told to get in another line and come back to the same if my order was going to be given to me at the front counter.
Wes Cook
Great service and great food. Will definitely go back next time I'm down in the Kemah area.
Jason Powell
Tookie's is a well known establishment in Kemah. We had a friend come down from MN to visit so went to Tookie's our 1st night for burgers. The food, service, and atmosphere were all good. Prices are reasonable. We would go there again.
Geo Charlie
This place is great! Hamburgers are good, chili dogs are good, chicken strips are good, onion rings are good (they come in thick slices or very thin slices, yum) fried pickles are good, pelican eggs are good and fried Jalapenos are good. That's all I've tried right now!
Javier Gomez
Tookie's always has good customer serves. no matter who your server is, Tookie's has it down. Food never disappoints, if your having a sweet tooth their milkshakes hit the spot! Highly recommend their #99 (A Champion)
Amy J
Wonderful place to eat. Our server Jason was great and the food was all delicious. Happy Hour is from 3-6 with $3 margaritas which were so yummy. Portions are large for good prices. I highly recommend!
Glenda Boozer
Fabulous food, music that resonated with my 66-year-old self, nice indoor or outdoor dining. The fabled burgers were all less than ten bucks, and my veggie burger was made perfect by their cilantro cream sauce.
Charlie Watkins
Our burgers were fresh and delicious as usual and tots & fries served hot and fresh! Our server Miriam was a delight & helpful. Had everything we asked for and our drinks stayed full! Definitely coming back soon! A customer since the 70's..
Suzi
Great little place right on the water. Appropriate distancing and disinfecting protocol followed. Really friendly wait staff. Seating was quick, service perfect.
Food? Dear heavens, I could eat there everyday. Started with fried mushrooms and a tequila sunrise that left me wanting more of both but driving so no more booze for Suz. I had the BLT with perfectly golden Texas toast and fries. Hubs had the Squealer with onion rings and we were both sampling the other's sides. My bacon was cooked just right, not breaking from overcooking, not chewy from under. Fresh lettuce, nice tomatoes, the fried were perfect as well. Loved the huge onion rings the size of softballs. Overall, wouldn't change a thing and truly looking forward to a return visit. They get a perfect 10 from this hangry lady.
Adam Williams
It's been 4 years today since I was on vacation and stopped at this place. I talk about it all the time but couldn't recall the name or exact location until my phone memories showed a picture I took of the pier while sitting and waiting for food. Definitely on the bucket list to go back.
joey cornelius
Always reliable and consistent with their delicious food! Burgers are great, apps good and service is always on par. Can’t go wrong with Tookies, been amazing for a long time!
Jessica Delacruz
Our server, Jessica, was very friendly, quick and anticipated our needs. The Squeeler was delicious as were the tator tots. I went for Happy Hour and ordered a mango margarita and a peach margarita. Both were delicious. Overall, my experience was wonderful and I will definitely be returning.
Dylan Rawline
Everything was really good. Service was excellent food was awesome! This was my first time here despite driving by it for years. I'm glad in one respect that I've never been here before. It delayed only briefly my impending stroke or heart attack.
BEAUTY 4 ASHES
OMG!! The burger's are so delicious. The burger was juicy, moist, humungous, cooked to perfection. The onion ring's were deliscioso as well. We sat on the patio which was a really nice view of Galveston. Our waitress Raven was a doll. Great food and great service. Thank you Mr. Tookie 😊 …
Shaunée Nicole
The service is great! It was only a 30 minute wait the Saturday we visited. Their food and drink was good. I ordered the BBQ burger w/ fries which was totally delicious! The drink is Cat 4 which was strong! My nephew had chicken strips from the kid's meal and he loved it. I'd definitely come back here when I'm in Kemah.
Colton Murley
Honestly my wife found this place and the review said best burger in Texas!!!! Yeah that's true they were good burgers but not all that....now they did have one of the best mozzarella sticks I have ever had they were awesome...overall good food....but not best burger in tx by any means! Just saying! Onion rings we're great also
Trey Mills
A really great burger at Tookies.
We have been driving by for 10 years heading to the island and said let's have a burger.
Fantastic!
And those Onion Rings are a meal themselves!
The road construction is a bit tricky but 5 minutes is no big deal for a Fantastic Burger!
Amy Seymour
The best and biggest burgers in town! Simple burgers, large shareable sides. Took some out of town guests to experience & they thought it was fantastic.
Peyman Jo
First-timer to Tookie’s after hearing much about it. Wasn’t expecting much from a burger joint but was pretty impressed with both the service and food.
For three entrees, two appetizers, two margaritas and one virgin margarita (yes they have virgin margaritas, not on menu but just ask!) it came out to around $55 (before tip) which is not bad.
Fried pickles are our go-to appetizer and a good amount come with the order, which is always a win. Burgers were great, all though I would say mine was a bit too big and messy, but hey guess you can’t complain about that- right? Waiter service was quick and accurate and the environment was fast-paced yet comfortable, would definitely return!
baron nelson
Have always loved this place, its almost as old as me! Burgers, onion rings, fries, chalupas, chicken....its all good. The pelican eggs are a must! The service is always good.
Crystal White
They are a chill place to hang out for some drinks and apps with good happy hour prices on well drinks and margaritas. I had the Mo Betta Beans which were very enjoyable with that nice pickle flavor while still being crisp.
Marc Flores
Don't cheat yourself, treat yourself to the best burgers . Don't forget the onion rings. That is a must.
Gary Curtis
Loved the food. Beware - burgers are big. Nice atmosphere. Service very good even when busy. Great choice for a relatively inexpensive dinner.
J. Cole
Had the Double Meat Squeeler with ground up bacon in the beef. Burger was great. Ordered a side of Mozzarella sticks, hula hoop skinny onions rings and fries. The family enjoyed them all. Older kids had the chicken strips, and the little one had the max and cheese meal. Everyone enjoyed the food they got. We will be back again
Eduart Mustafa
Very good service. Deacon did a great job on getting all our 10 orders right. Food was delicious.
ram cuevas
Tookies is the MUST GO TO for Burgers in the Houston area! The burgers are Big and flavorful! And the prices are great! And order the Cheese sticks!! I have yet to find anyone who makes better cheese sticks than Tookies.
Also staff are always friendly and helpful. Great customer service
Nicole Hardy
We got in really fast even though it was a Friday night during dinner rush, the servers were incredibly friendly, and the food was fantastic. I highly recommend the onion rings! Our waitress was on top of our table even though she had a lot else going on, and brought everything out sizzling hot. It was a great experience, we will definitely be back and soon.
Margit Patterson
Best Burger ever! And the Onion Rings are so BIG and tasty. If you're in Kemah, you gotta try this place 😊 …
Nathan Lara
The wife and I stopped here today for lunch, our first time here. We started with the fried pickles and they were amazing for $4.99. parking lot was packed but it was still fast service as well. She ordered a Pina colada and strawberry margarita, tasted yummy. I ordered the BBQ burger for $6,99 it was good, BBQ sauce I think is homemade it wasn't bad. The wife got chicken strips for $5,99 and they were juicy and fresh but didn't have any seasoning. . . Need some seasoning that would of made it 5 star. ***We did sit at the bar and Ani did a great job and was very fast.
jorge Rodriguez
I had been craving a great burger and found it here. Great service and great prices.
Oh yeah... Get the onion rings!
Miri Fontenot
Atmosphere not quite as great in the new location, the original was fabulous. But the Squealer is still best burger I've ever eaten.
D K (DWK)
I have been eating at Tookie's for over 40 years. I got Stomps ice house special hamburger. Fries and vanilla heath bar shake.
William Cordray
The main thing you need to know is that these are handcut and handshaped beef patty burgers that you can taste and feel. Everything was freshly fried. We arrived around 1pm on a Friday. Service was prompt and professional without being overbearing. Easily one of the best burgers on the outer edge of the Houston metro area. Worth it if you are planning to visit Nasa/Space Center or the Kemah Boardwalk.
Heather Lorraine
Delicious and fun! Love the aesthetic between old school and new-- great prices too, moldable menu to pick and choose what you like! Sweet potato fries were mmmm mmm MMM!
Enrique Mata Jr
Excellent service n friendly. Good burgers fresh n tasty . You need to come here and enjoy the wonderful food selection. Also good chili hot dogs .
Austin Webb
The burgers and appetizers were both really on point. I heard great things about this place and definitely see why now. Believe the hype!
Aimee Kepka
They have great burgers but if you’re not feeling a burger get their Buffalo chicken sandwich it’s sooo good. Homemade ranch and a side of pickles YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED, COME HUNGRY. Oh and don’t forget to try their onion rings!
Raymond Knight
The service is always fast and friendly with a smile. The burgers are always juicy and delicious. Tater tots are perfectly fried and crispy. You can have a whole wheat bun too!
Vale Shia Mccuin
Wow the food was great, the wait staff amazing and prices were very reasonable, I will definitely go back and try the Margaritas before we head back home,I am enjoying this vacation...
diane wyer
This place is a gem! We stopped by here for lunch before we took the kids to Kemah Boardwalk. The boardwalk can be pricey with all of us. Super affordable for my family. I paid $75 for 5 of us, and that includes an appetizer and Pina colada. We got fat full. Our server was so nice and friendly. We sat on the patio and enjoyed the atmosphere and breeze. Will definitely be back. I had the Squealer (hamburger bacon blend). It was delicious!
Cody Boehler
Great burger joint with some unique items on the menu. The fried pickles and jalapenos were amazing along with the then sliced onion rings. Friendly staff and great service.
Amy Meller
The burgers were huge and delicious! We love dining outdoors as well and definitely plan to return.
Samantha Connaway
I heard readers digest said yall had the best burger! I'd have to agree, Tookies is my favorite burger joint, too!
Eric Linkenhoker
I’ve been going here for years. Since it was in Seabrook. Burgers are always so good and my server Kyla was probably the best server I’ve ever had!!!
Randy Crane
Very good burger and nice cold beer. Service was awesome
Greg Daigle
We had a group of 12 that wanted to watch the LSU football game. They put the game on for us (moved to smaller TVs when the Astros game came on). The service was fantastic, and the food was just as good. No one in the group had the slightest complaint on what they ordered! They were very accommodating for our group even though we stayed for over four hours. We will be back!!
steven santos
Amazing! You got to be ready and have a big appetite when you visit here. The portions are plentiful. The pelican eggs were a great appetizer as well. They have great trading milkshakes as well. The service was on point which is a big plus. Just a great experience overall.
T Roberson
Excellent hamburgers and great atmosphere. Literally right on the water near the Kemah boardwalk.
Trevor Sloas
Food was just okay; burger was decent, nice portion of onion rings but they werent very flavorful. The service was bad. I'm not rating this place on the service, but I figure it's worth mentioning. All in all a pretty meh experience.
Thanh Le
Had a t-bird w/ 🥓 & 🥑 and 🌰 rings
Great portions & good service w/nice ambiance. Came on a 🌧 day but still good lunch experience
Wesley Bunch
Food was pretty good. Our server was very helpful. I didnt agree with having to walk back out to truck to get my face mask to walk 15' to my table but that's not their fault.
Soney
Best fried pickles we’ve ever gotten. I’ve eaten a fair share of fried pickles, even make them myself. But these at Tookie’s are still the best. As far as the burgers go, freaking good for the price, not much to complain there. Going for an early lunch was the best time, not to noisy or crowded. It was just right. I always try to visit tookies burgers when I visit Seabrook.
Felicia Esquivel
The food was good, our waitress was nice, only issue our waitress had a bad memory. It was frustrating but maybe she had a lot of tables. My husband and I had a Michelada. It had good flavor just needed more spice. We ordered the pelican eggs for our appetizer and it was so delicious!! They were actually spicy unlike many other restaurants stuffed peppers. My husband ordered the Tookies cheeseburger and I had the Squealer. We both liked our burgers a lot. We shared an order of fries with cheese. Next time we will get the fries without cheese though. The outside patio was very nice to sit and eat.
Brandon Hong
Food made fresh and served hot. And fried to perfection
Chris Milani
Beachy atmosphere. We enjoyed the patio as we had kids with us that wanted to watch boats and rides at the boardwalk. Waitstaff was nice, friendly and patient with children. Burgers were good, onion rings were divine. Pelican eggs were wonderful.
Art By Lauren B
Tookie’s is always an amazing place to stop and grab a mouth watering burger! The service is always good! Our waitress Amber was so amazing, made the experience 100x better! Thank you amber!
Debra Searcy Frazer
Awesome burgers! Nice menu - not too busy. Don't order the double meat unless you have a hollow leg. Mama Ethel Onion Rings are a must!
Son Ngo
I love Tookies, there I said it.
When I used to live here in Seabrook, this was definitely the spot for burgers and I'm happy to say that it still is today.
Come by order any burger off the menu and just be happy for once!
Moises Lopez
Tookies burgers was off the chain real deal burgers and the patties were cooked and seasoned well and the Pelican eggs were delicious as well as the over sized Onion rings hats off to the chef and I want to thank my server Ethan for taking care of me and my family it was busy but kept making sure we were all Satisfied Great Job!!
Jamie Norman
Atmosphere and food was exceptionalJessica our server was awesome she made sure our visit was top notch I really can’t wait to get back & have another awesome burger & milkshake.
Allen Miller
Hands down one of the best burgers around, and probably that I've ever had. Grew up going here and hadn't been in years, was happy to see the new location with more space after the devistating hurricane. The 99 and bean burgers are a solid choice and gotta have those onion rings!
Sasha Jewell
Love! Been coming for years! Best burgers. And the pelican eggs are my favorite!! Yumm!!
Brandy Guerra
The burger was delish....
The service was sketch....
The atmosphere was a little boring 😴.....
Dawn Runyan
If you want a GREAT burger, that's fresh and will not break the bank..GO HERE!! Awesome food, awesome service, the onion rings and pelican eggs are to DIE for!! Best burger resturant in Kemah and surrounding areas!!!!
John Jackson
Tookies is absolutely Amazing. The kemah boardwalk is our favorite place to visit just because of tookies. The best tenders ever and the burgers mmmm the service of the employees is spectacular to he food is amazing it's a must try
ET
The food was ok but my server did not care for me.
She never asked me for refill.
She asked table behind me for more drinks but skipped me.
When she gave me more tea she took my glass to the back.
Why she did not pour mines out of pitcher ?
Thanks Chelsa
Eric Tucker
I had the squealer, which was very good. Be warned the bacon is cooked INSIDE the burger, so don't look for it! My daughter had the bean burger, which tasted like a Frito pie burger. Both were very good. Don't need the fries unless you really want to eat them.
kim gutierrez
Amazing burgers. Onion rings were a bit much for me but tasted great. I would stick with the fries. Nothing better than a towering burger. First time trying this place and ordered a double cheeseburger and I wasn't disappointed.
Jesus Gonzalez
Our first time in Tookie’s was excellent at serving and the great food.Jackson was pretty nice and he kept having us drinks,and the lady who served us the food was also very nice.
Jessica Cabarubio
Service was outstanding, Burgers and appetizers were amazing, First time there, prices were low and all the food was delicious 😋 …
Scootsta
Evolution has taken a turn. Mary who worked there evolved into M3GAN. Same dance moves. Be careful out there
Good burgers too 🍔 …
Nikki Durham
This place is fantastic. Excellent service and the food is amazing. My son got the cheese sticks and said they were the best cheese sticks he has ever had and that is saying something, because he orders them from everywhere. The squealer burger was so good! I will definitely be back! They have the cutest shirts as well.
John KFA
This place is an icon - great service; outstanding food. When they put rolls of paper towels on the tables, you know it's a serious burger!
Jason Lacquement
Taylor was such a great waitress and the food was delicious. Go in there and ask for her and tell her that the guys that bought those shirts sent you.
Susan Arscott
Good service and great food as always. My friend and I had way too many calories, but they were definitely worth it.
Morrigan McDonald
I think this place literally has the best turkey burgers I've ever had. The fries taste like they're fresh, and the fried pickles are so good (and I'm someone who usually hates fried pickles). The sweet tea wasn't great this time but every other visit I've had the sweet tea has been perfect.
Sarah Bacak
Great service and atmosphere! I had a classic burger and absolutely loved it. I'll definitely go back to try more. If you like well seasoned burgs, this is a good spot. The weakest part was the bun.
Shawn Petricko
We went here after a long morning at NASA. I had read so many great reviews of this place my expectations were pretty high. I was pretty disappointed. The service was great. Stellar. The onion rings and fries were good but the burger didn't even rate top 10. The patty wasn't seared, just grey. I don't even think it was seasoned. The worst part was the bun though. I don't know if they get their bread order on Saturdays or what but it was super dry. My nephew said his was cutting into the sides of his lips. Bummer. I had been really looking forward to this place.
Michael Landon
Wow what a terrific burger! I was very impressed with the "squealer" bacon burger I had and my wife loved her "99" burger. Be sure to get the onion rings too. They're awesome!
Ash C
Good pricing and good servings. Fresh buns. My lady loved the onion rings. Wish I ordered more...
If you want done right simple good ol boy food, you’ve come to the right spot.
Tati Ramos
This was our first time here. Family friendly, great food and service. Ethan was very attentive. We would definitely be coming back.
Manny Villarreal
Always a great place to go for the burgers and shakes! Just watch out for the pelicans, they get angry when you eat their eggs!
Lauren Yearnd
I'll start off by saying the restaurant was clean and well situated. There was plenty of room between tables and the outside patio was really nice and fun. As for the waitress she didn't smile once, seemed really hurried and busy the whole time, and just was not generally very friendly. I had the fried pickled green beans off the menu with ranch and they were delicious...one of the best I've ever had! Plus they came out super fast I barely had to wait. I had the blackened shrimp and sweet potato fries for the entree. I know I have seen a lot of locals review the restaurants and are very positive in their reviews but my meal just fell short. The sweet potato fries were good but I've had better ones and the blackened shrimp were very fishy tough and didn't have a lot of flavor. My date had a buffalo chicken type sandwich and he said it was good and it really did look delicious but I didn't have any of it. I spoke with a friend and she said to go there and try some of the sandwiches and burgers so I plan on giving it another shot.

Hamburger was basic milked shake good fries good but the price for the amount to high by a dollar
Michelle Pabor
We had appetizers only and they were delicious. LOVE the Hula Hoops
We ate outside despite the 95 degree weather it was nice and breezy, benches a little uncomfortable...Cameron gave great service and food ready quickly, very reasonably priced! We will definitely be back!!
Frank Alamos
Delicious burger, chicken sandwich and onion rings. The squealer burger is full of flavor and will fill you up. The onion rings tasted home made.
Lauren Smith-Williams
Hands down the best burgers in Houston!!! The burgers, the bread, the cheese! *chefs 💋* and the hula hoops (onion rings)... run, don't walk!!

Wonderful burgers.
Hospitable and professional staff.
Great singer (Jeff).
God bless.
Thomas Stubbs
Tookie's has been a local hit for a long time! It's a great value burger joint with an awesome laid back atmosphere. I've never been let down here by service or food. If you're craving a burger in Seabrook...go to Tookie's!
Neighborhood Lex
Awesome food! 1st time going and their fries are filling! Sesame seed buns are a forgotten item these days when it comes to burgers!
Brandon Garrison
This place is a great stop for some good ol’ fashioned burgers! The only complaint I would have is that it is pretty loud, and it’s hard to hear the people sitting a foot from you. Other than that the food and service was good, especially the turkey burger (The Gobbler) and the sweet potato fries. Great spot for pretty days and beach burgers!
Felix Espinoza
It is a great place to take your family. Food is great and the view of the boardwalk is amazing.
Brandy Greco
As a child I grew up going to Tookies with my family. It was a place that everyone always agreed upon (What kid doesn't want a chocolate coke??). After not having been in a years, I was driving through the area and remembered this treasure and decided to drop in for a burger (the bean burger is the only way to go), some amazing onion rings, and of course that chocolate coke. Everything tasted just as in remembered it, and I couldn't have been more satisfied.
John Crawford
Always good. Specialty burgers you can't get anywhere else. Outside dining on a pleasant night. Been eating there since the original opened up in Seabrook, now in Kemah.
Jon D. Smith
Been a while since I’ve been. Was fairly frequent to the original location. Been a couple times to the new one.
The onion rings were still spot on.
The Squealer was not the same. Still a good burger but, the flavor profile and the color of the meat was definitely not the same. The original had more of a reddish hue due to the ground bacon in the mix. Even when cooked. This was the color of a normal beef patty, as was the flavor.
Still good but, the Squealer was a distinctively different offering and one I used to enjoy. I thought it was odd when I was asked if I wanted bacon on it. Had never been asked that before for this particular burger but a dismissed it with the thought, one can never have too much bacon.
Still good but, not the same. 🥲

Sitting outside enjoying a good burger at Tookies is the best! Oh and a beer
Ben Do
Loved the Cheeseburger with Jalapeños
Freddie King
The food was good and customer service great. They had a live music performance on patio which was nice as well.
Mrs.Jackson 1028
Great food big portions! Staff was very friendly my family and I enjoyed our visit here and will be back.
luz rodriguez
I highly recommended don't mind to drive far for a good food 😋 😉 👌
Kim Martin
Awesome burger, fast and friendly service. Tookie's was recommended by locals and lived up to their description. Will definitely try Tookie's Seafood next trip.
Green Klowd
Loved it... They give you huge portions. It was a bit crowded, but it's Cinco de mayo weekend. The waiter was very attentive. Only thing I didn't like was they had mostly burgers. Not alot of options.
Nat B
Really good food and service definitely recommend. 👌
David Felt
First time visiting. Our friends had moved here, they took us here to eat. Food was reasonable. Ala cart style choices to eat. Had the Bean burger 🍔 yes beef pattie, refried beans, fritz Lay's Coen chips, spicy Pico sauce. Over all a very good burger.
Tried their house Onion rings, tater tots and some deep fried sausage and rice balls. All very good.
Tried their local campor beer on tap. That was amazing.
Mike Collings
Best burgers for 100 miles! The tots were amazing too! We also shared a Heath bar shake and it was out of this world!
Awnings Houston
Took my family to Tookies for one of those famous burgers on Father's day. Needless to say, we weren't disappointed. The burgers are huge! I had a hand made malt & some of those wagon wheel sized onion rings. It's hard to compete in the hamburger arena but not when you make'm like Tookies does! Can't wait to go back & now that their huge deck outside is covered, we can sit outside & enjoy the marina even during the heat of the day.
Martin Contreras
Awesome burger and onion rings 😷😷😷👍
S Kirby
The burgers are delicious! Watch out for the pelican eggs, they've gotta kick to them!
Robert Kirtland
Delicious burgers and fries. Friendly staff and clean dining area. I would dine here again.
Jimmy Show جيمي شو
Probably best burgers in Texas, I’m addicted to the buffalo chicken burger.
The size of the sandwich is amazing it’s a perfect balance between quality and quantity.
Neva Clark
First time there, the burgers were wonderful and the sweet potato fries
Ellen Smail
Nice servers and great food! Update...Dec.17, 2022, we dined in and our server Deacon was absolutely wonderful! He was such a nice young man and very attentive to his customers. Turns out he goes to college where some of my grandkids live. The hostess, Michele was just delightful. Jessica, another server, was at the desk and was really sweet also. I asked to speak to the manager, Julie so I could express my great experience we had at Tookies. She was really nice also. All our food was excellent! The pelican eggs were sooo good! If you ever go to Kemah, you absolutely must go to Tookies! You won't be disappointed, I guarantee it!
Rosie Sanchez
Tookies always has the best burgers. My favorite is the 99 with a fried egg 🤤
Nathan Vaughn
Always loved Tookies going way back to the early Seabrook days, but had not been to the new one. Went with our grown kids over the weekend, a nostalgia trip.
All the food was good as was the service. Pelican eggs were a great start. Bean burgers, Stomp's, and a 99 were great,,still fantastic onion rings!. ***They do have gluten-free buns for those that aska plus for many***
We walked out with leftovers, and enjoyed them later as well.
Just a fun place!
Misti Adams
I really enjoyed the food. Great place to go after sailing ⛵️. Last few times we have been the service was very slow. After looking around I'm pretty sure the slow service was due to lack of employees and overworked employees. Still great place.
Bailey Brantley
Tookies was a solid burger/seafood experience with a roomy layout. The menu items had entertaining names and the staff were amicable. They also have an expansive patio with sun coverings. The food quality was about average: not disappointing, not mind-blowing. I would suggest it as a stop on a trip down to Galveston.
Rachel McManus
Best burgers ever! Onion rings are huge!
Angelique Melancon
LOVE LOVE LOVE!! Really good food!! Wonderful staff!! Decent drinks!!! Ice been coming here for years!!! It's definitely a go to for me!!!
Freddy Alvarado
Good burgers and good drinks. I live the outside patio. It is a nice treat
19Eleven71
Tookies was excellent. The service was fantastic and the food was even better.
Michelle Jacobs
Big burgers with an excellent price! Ordered the #99 with cheese, bacon & avocado all for $6.99. The burger was juicy & well seasoned, forget the ketchup & mustard!
M. Perez Maggio
Awesome food and super friendly staff. Perfect Onions rings...
Cade Ervin
I ordered boudin balls, buffalo chicken sandwich, and tater tots. The portions and prices were great!!! The food was about average for a burger joint, but nothing to write home about. I would eat there again if I'm in the area and wanting a decent burger with a good environment ~ but I wouldn't drive out of my way.
Gregory Ellis
Great burgers! The new location South of the bridge is even better than the old one. Love the burgers, the bombshells, and the beer. Ok, I don't drink beer but I needed another "B" word. The patio is great on crisp fall days or mild Spring afternoons.
Eric Dickinson
Nice clean relaxed atmosphere... good and service have always been great!
Dustin Moon
Prices were fair, portions were right & service was great.
Paul Smith
Tookies new location has much the same feel as the original. Food was great as usual and great service.
Cass Masters
I love tookies, the number 99 is the best and with all the menu options they cater to just about any diet. I had a 99 on an iceberg bun and it was delicious. I had to bring three home in boxes for my family everyone was jealous I made it out there for lunch.
Jenny H
Love this place. Casual delicious food! I never leave hungry!
Kevin Moore
This is a good burger joint in Kemah. The service was a bit off but it could have just been the day. The burger was good but from all the hype was expecting a bit better.
eehhdz
Perfect ending to our day trip! Our first visit to Tookie’s did not disappoint! The burgers were huge, fresh made, and the onion rings were on point! Our server, Mark was great! Would definitely revisit this place!
Terry Babij
Great location with generous portions and scrumptious food. The fried pickles are great to share. The burgers are beyond filling. Service was friendly and it’s almost magic as drink refills appeared!!!
Susy Blasing
Sat on the deck after the light parade and enjoyed a beer and appetizers. Shelby took great care of us!
Gary Raines
Tookies is a tradition in the Clear Lake area. They have survived hurricanes (barely), and road construction (by moving). They are a fun location with unusual styles of burgers. I recommend the Bean Burger (yes it has meat).
Bert David
Awesome burgers and drinks. great atmosphere!
Lynda Smith
We just ate our first Tookies hamburger...it was delicious. The onion rings were great too.
Jordan Gerber
Super good burgers!!
Alyssa Flores
Waitress was friendly & attentive! New to the area & first experience here was 10/10. Would definitely recommend & will be back!! Food was fresh, hot & delicious!!
Camille Langston
The place is cute. But server brought me the wrong food and didn’t return to table until time to leave. Burgers were dry. Onion rings were good and fun. I won’t return. There’s a DQ down the street.
Ariyana Dumon
The last time I came here was over ten years ago and before they moved to their new building. That being said, it smells just like I remember, the building looks nigh identical, and the food and drink is just as good. It was an incredibly comforting experience to know that some things, especially good ones, never change. Shine on Tookies, shine on.
Julian Jenkins
Tookie’s has some of the best hamburgers I’ve ever had. If you visit try a burger, pelican eggs, tater tots, and onion rings. You’ll be happy you did!
ariel likes tacos likes cows and friends
Great greatest burgers greatest onion rings greatest service I will be back and I will happily give them my money
Lauren Chapman
The pelican eggs are the best appetizer ! Mark was our waiter super friendly and attentive! Before we could even realize there was a delay in our order coming out the manager Linda came and apologized and comped our drinks that's what you call above and beyond amazing customer service! Always love every plate we choose ! Try the Buffalo chicken sandwich too !
Jason Bukowski
MUST VISIT THIS ICON!! Burger's are as good as I remembered from back when I worked for Tookies in High School (25 yrs ago). New location, but still brought back so many good memories. The entire staff was AMAZING... freindly, up beat, engaging and helpful. The manager on duty (Jason) was GREAT. Brook, our server, was GREAT... very attentive and checked on our table often; despite being busy with multiple tables.
Look forward to my next visit!
Molly Smith
Great burger and beat onion rings I've ever had.
Lee Turner
Still loving Tookie's after all these years! They've recently updated the menu just a bit. We loved the hula hoops: thin cut onion rings that live up to their thick cut cousins! And the bombshell app is as good as ever.
kelly ketchum
Great place. Onion rings. Squints was a great waitress. We will be back
Sonny Fletcher
Wife and I have eaten here twice, both times the food was perfect. We both had the fish sandwich and onion rings, onion rings are probably my favorite. Watch out, the staff tend to get drink orders mixed up. Alcoholic drinks are mixed perfectly.
Brianna Bolling
Delicious, take out was easy, bar tender was quick and kind.
Janice Huff
Always good! Always great service as nd the view is awesome when you sit outside.
Benjamin Hubbard
The piggyback is an awesome two patty burger with the bacon blended in the meat! Had the onion rings as a side and they were the best, big extra batter. Perfect
Millie Simms
My SIL was visiting, it was great,we could visit, have good food, sat outside.
Donna Hoefler
Great food and service. Nice atmosphere, minimal wait time. Not busy, good parking. Would eat there again.
Ryan Churchill
Awesome little place with exceptional burgers and sides! Outdoor seating near the water and the Kemah Boardwalk nearby with rides and fun times for all!!! CHECK IT OUT!!!
Joshua Castro, LPC
It's a great place to sit on the patio and grab easy food, mostly burgers and fish sandwiches.
Sandy
The food was really good, fresh and hot. They have big portions and are surprisingly inexpensive. Their stuff was super friendly, I would definitely go there again and recommend it to everyone else.
Shadow Wolf
Love Tookies hamburgers! They are so delicious and cooked just right! Fries are great as well and I recently tried their fried bonding balls! Loved them and very tasty! My 11 year old grandchildren loved them too! Great staff and always friendly!
Amanda Ratcliff
The food was pretty good. Service wasn't bad. The only complaint I have is that my food came out lukewarm while my husband's food was hot.
Crys Arthur
This place is amazing! My two boys and I ate for under $30 ! We spend more than that at Subway ! 😒
The burger, BLT and chicken strips were delicious. Don't forget about those onion rings !!
Update: Great, as usual. Service was really good too!
Dennis Wallace
Onion rings were amazing. The service was good. The Mozzarella burger was rather disappointing but overall Tookies was decent. Everyone else enjoyed their food.
MK Pressure and Power
Tookie's is a great place to get a burger and hang out with friends.
Jocie Fall
Order anything they have with chili and cheese. Do it! Mouthwatering burgers, fried stuffed jalapenos, cold beer, friendly staff in a casual atmosphere - plus outdoor dining, picnic table style. This place is a classic.
Not Somuch
Just amazing. Great burgers and great service.
Billy Tharp
My wife wants them to open a location in our hometown. The burgers have amazing flavor and the onion rings are light, crispy and too good to believe. Two words Tookie's... Sell Franchises!!!
Lady Bugg
The food was just ok... the service was great, it was also nice dining this close to the water.
Polli Bush
Update: meh, maybe I've just eaten here too much but the burgers are thin, buns are not soft and not much flavor. Otherwise still great, esp for the $$.
Previous review: Lettuce bun burgers all the way! Haven't had a bad experience here yet. Price is great, food is great. Staff is also good!
Susan Garcia
Brandon gave us the best service we have had at any restaurant in several years. The food was very fresh and hot, drinks were always full. Thank you Brandon!
Victor Colin
Place is busy, straight forward menu, delicious food, drinks are okay, i will say one of the best customer service experiences, our waitress will constantly check up on us and she made sure our experience was a pleasant one, you have to try 👍🏼
The original Matt Scott
This is the place for burgers and shakes! Everything on the menu I've tried is good, from hot dogs to shrimp! Great atmosphere, excellent servers!
Israel Hernandez
Love the Buffalo chicken sandwich. And their homemade onion rings are amazing. Great drinks as well
Shunta Bobo
First time there and it will not be the last. The food was delicious.
X V
Happened to be in the area and decided to stop here and try the food. I thought the reviews were just hype but the burgers here are delicious. Staff was super friendly. Would definitely recommend.
Jeremy Robertson (JrRobin)
After watching the Bob's Burgers movie we decided to go to kehma and while we were there get burgers. Serendipitously it was actually national burger day and it showed because our burgers were fantastic and on top of that our mango chamoy margarita was very strong. A+
Devy Unknown
This place was so good! The sides are big enough for two people... we did not know so we order too much. Service was great!
Jeff Brown
We had a cheeseburger, buffalo chicken sandwich, onion rings, and cheesesticks. All made from scratch and amazing... 5 stars plus a couple extra.... would reccomend anyone and everyone go here at least once
Geoffrey Snyder
Awesome food with a nice view of the Kemah Boardwalk Marina ⛵
Jody Black
A go-to for me as a local in Kemah. Great food. Great staff.
Michael King
Awesome burger and rings place is easy to find ..prices are great will be coming back
RITA HALL
I don't go out for a burger unless it's Tookies. I ordered the "99" burger. It's perfection on a plate! When it arrives at my table I do a happy chair dance because it's so delicious, don't add anything just eat it!! My beverage of choice is the Tookie Tie! You won't be disappointed, Bon Appétit.
Ain't Misbehavin62
It was fabulous and the service was great, and the prices were great…
Alicia McMullen
The burger is really great. I was impressed with the product for the price. Honestly one of the best burgers that I've ever had. Only giving four stars because the wait staff didn't seem very knowledgeable about allergens. I am allergic to wheat and was able to order the lettuce wrapped burger without a reaction.
Frank Cones
The atmosphere is similar to Willie's ice house(though not as cavernous)and so are the burgers only with a better flavor. Onion rings are good and the fries are average. The view of docks is a plus and so is the fact that Tookies location spares you the congestion of the boardwalk. Bottom line good burger, cool atmosphere and reasonable prices.
Gary Buchanan
Great burgers, fried pickles and to die for onion rings. Well, maybe not worth dying for... but really, really good. Excellent service. Can't wait to go back.
Syd Waldman, CFSP
Fantastic hamburger 1lb with nice side of bacon.
The thin onion rings were a huge portion easily shared by two people.
robin travis
Had dinner here in the spur of the moment and was so glad we did. I was dying for a hot dog but the only one in the menu was a chili dog with onions which I hate. The water told me they would make my hot dog however I wanted and it hit the spot! We sat outside on the patio by the river for dinner and it was very relaxing. The cocktails were reasonably priced and very well concocted. Or waiter was nice, helpful and attentive. We would definitely go back.
Michael Minjares
This was our first time eating at the new location. Great service as always and the food... well they haven't changed a bit. Still amazing burgers, we got the cheese sticks as an appetizer and our son loved them. The patio area was great and helped keep my toddler occupied watching all the birds and boats.
Frank Gonzalez
We really had a good and pleasant time in the terrace towards the sea. We enjoyed the view of the boats and birds. The hamburguer was simple yet with great flavor! Onion rings were very good as well. Juicy. I had a local craft beer IPA. The service was kind and friendly. I definitely recommend Tookie's. On our list next time we travel to Houston.
Craig Leblanc
One of the best burgers I've had! Will definitely be back.
Richard Barrera
A lot of people on social media call this place the best burger around and we found out why. Got the double burger and it was one of the few times I couldn't finish my meal. Tookie's onion rings are incredible and the fries are great. Buffalo tenders are wow too. All the food has generous portions.
Elissa Wilson
The best fried mushrooms ever!!! The burgers are delicious too and the service was impeccable and always with a smile! We took my 2 & 4yr old and the kids meals came out very fast. Happy kids = happy life!
Jessica Lindsey
Tookie's is a MUST any time we visit Kemah. Absolutely delicious burgers every time. Don't forget to order the BEST thing on the menu: Pelican Eggs!!
Mike
Burgers are alright. Place has been around for a zillion years. Not a big fan of the wait staff every time I come there's usually waitress with a attitude or some type of I don't care look on there face.
Rodney Conley
Met a friend here for brunch. I hadn't been to the new location, but it was very nice and spacious
Jennifer Oakley Busch
One if the best appetizers I've ever had! 6 of us ordered a combi of breakfast and burgers.... Everything was delicious!
StaHr Walker
Excellent food...our go to place for burgers!
Jacob
Tookies will always be a local favorite. We’ve been here more times than I can count and have always had a great experience. The atmosphere is laid back and the staff is always friendly. I’ve tried numerous burgers and my personal favorite is the chicken fried steak sandwich. I will continue to come here as long as they are open.
Clarisia Gable
Just experience going there May 15, 2021 for my daughter's birthday with family & friends after fun on the Boardwalk. We had a large party and they accommodated us within 20 minutes. Unlike the other restaurants on the Boardwalk wait time was 3 hrs. The prices where Great, food taste Good, and Customer Service was Excellent!!! I will definitely be back and can't wait.
Chontell Mills
Omg the best food i had since I left New Orleans in 2006. The food is amazing. I can't afford to eat there right now since myself and my husband been fighting cancer. My husband is stage 4 and going down fast, but I would highly recommend this restaurant to all my family, and friends. Keep cooking like a mutha in there 😋 …
Carl Kirk
The menu is made to suit all taste and needs..Burgers are large and tasty..appetizers are great..onion rings and stuffed jalapenos top the selections..Service,Prices and outdoors seating are top shelve. Totally enjoyable experience..Many return visits in the future.
Daniel Sanchez
This place was great. Good food at a modest rate.
Steven Cardenaz
Delicious food! The Squealer burger was amazing! Seems like a normal burger but great flavor and very filling. The Hula Hoops were delicious and crisp. Best onion rings I have ever experienced. The tots as well, just amazing! A five start restaurant except for my server. Unfortunately, after a couple tables he seemed to be overwhelmed and stopped coming to our table. Two tables got their checks before we did, and we ended up asking a different server for our check. Other than that it was a wonderful experience.
Theresa Adams
I had the fish sandwich. It was very good. Our server was great! We are outside and got a kick out of watching the birds feet, through the tarp, walking overhead😂 …
Chris Mccleveland
AMAZING MEAL..... MY SON'S 16TH BIRTHDAY
Breana Holmes
We've been here a few times now and it's one of our favorites. The food is fresh, the beef is juicy and well-seasoned and the prices are fair for the portions and quality. These are some of the very best fries I've ever had as well. The place is a little small but well worth a visit.ifnyoire in the area.
Holly Sundbeck
Oh my gosh I LOVE this place! The food is outstanding and the selection of spirits is too! I loved their Sangria Swirl frozen drink. And my favorite order is their bean burger with onion rings! So delicious! The waitstaff is always full of energy and friendly, and even tending to us before we need them. I love the decor of the place, with stop signs, traffic lights, street signs and also a working train that runs through one of the dining rooms. Fun place to eat delicious food!
Connie Cuddihy
Get Cierra super sweet and amazing. Fought over the fried pickles 😍
Hans Hammond
Cool atmosphere and excellent burgers. I got the piggy back with bacon in the double meat patty with cheddar and pepper jack. I will definitely be back.
Christina Bourgeois (Christina)
Food was very good, service was also.
Chocolate milkshakes was awesome.
Pat Duncan
One of the best burgers I've had.. staff was super nice!!
C Reece
First time hubby an I went , cup of gumbo was ok kind of watered down so wouldn’t order again .. but the shrimp deviled eggs were awesome.. I had the crab cake amazingly delicious.. top off with bread pudding huge serving , hubby had key lime slice of pie which he said was a hit ❤️
Penny Hobbs
Our waiter Cam was great, very friendly and great customer service. The food was Amazing! We sit out on the patio and enjoyed good food and drink while listening to great music performed by Jeff Lopez. Great night with friends .. I would highly recommend it!
M. Garza
Had a wonderful waitress! Only thing the burger was real salty. Not sure if there normally like this. Could only eat half of it.
Captain Sparkle-Fingers
For off, this burger joint is the real deal. I got the "Lettuce be Cheesy" which I never heard of and I am so glad I ordered it. The burger was cooked right and was so juicy plus the tater tots were crispy hot😋. Give Tookies a look, you won't be disappointed!!😍👍🏾
Fred
Price has (surprisingly) not gone up from what I can tell. If the price has increased, it hasn't been by much making the place affordable for great tasting food.
Steve Sandifer
Super good burger and onion rings.
Adan Ramirez
Eye popping, Delicious and service is fantastic... burgers so big NO NEED for sides unless you enjoy appetizers.
Military friendly

Amazing service! Everyone was super friendly. We had 3 people say goodbye to us as we were leaving. We sat at the bar to be seated sooner. The bartender was very friendly and helped pick out the tea I decided on. The food was absolutely amazing! Burgers are HUGE! The onion rings were really good!! Definitely a very relaxed and easygoing environment. I'd say a 5 star plus experience!
Christina Shaw
A great place for a tasty burger! Tons of flavor! Love the Lettuce Be Cheesy! It's the only place I can do bunless. The hula hoops are the best! Thing is to make sure you ask for your burger well-done. Otherwise, it may be a little pink still on the inside. But that's just because the burgers are so thick. This place is a staple in my life!
Lauren HENDERSON
We were greeted and seated right away at 7pm on a Friday. The service was friendly and professional; our only complaint from service was how long it took to get extra napkins (we have three younger children.) The pelican eggs were pretty good and we liked that the breading was thin but crispy. The kids food looked good but none of them seemed to want to eat much of their meals. The onions rings were SO good, easily the best part of the meal. I got the #99 and my husband got the Squealer. He said his burger was good but nothing to rave about; his only complaint was the bun was not good...I however did not enjoy mine at all. The burger was dry and the buns tasted cheap...like cheap sesame seed buns from the store. The biggest disappointment were the drinks. We each tried two different signature cocktails and only finished them because they were so expensive. They tasted like cheap alcohol and cheap mixers. We’re from out of town and will most likely not return but overall it was just ok. If we did return we’d probably get beer instead of cocktails and try different meals. Definitely would order the pelican eggs and onion rings again.
Zach Horton
Great food, atmosphere and prices! My favorite kemah spot for a burger and onion rings!
Ryan Labbe
The food was good and portions were big. We went iron a Saturday night and I will say it was very loud. We were sat next to two huge parties and had a very tough time chatting with each other. I would go again on a less busy night.
Vincent the great
The service is great here and even when it's really busy. Burgers are great here and they have a wide selection to pick from the menu. I would suggest to arrive there at 11am (open time) so you can beat the crowd... summer time especially because it gets busy and food is great here and has outside seating with shade and perfect for the kids and is wheel chair accessable.
Chassidy Duckworth
The GOBBLE!!! Turkey burger with bacon! Absolutely amazing!!!! Been coming to Tookie’s since I was little girl and nothing has changed! The food the atmosphere the music the drinks was awesome! Our server was the greatest! Our table never went unattended. Cleanliness!!! The overall experience was by far the greatest! I can’t wait for the weather to change to sit on the patio. It’s definitely worth the drive from Houston to Kemah.
Diana bap.chica09
First time here it was a good choice would recommend it. Go support your local businesses. We sat outside nice breeze they had live music. The food was really good too. I had the pelican eggs and the buffalo chicken sandwich. The waiter was nice too. 👍 they were also doing the social distancing. …
Abigail Marie
Burger and fried jalapenos were a 10/10 . Full of flavor. Tasted fresh. Not bad on pricing. Will definitely be back.
Rodney D. Evans
It was a beautiful day on the patio and the staff was great (thank you Kelsey). The location is great even with the ongoing construction. I had their classic cheeseburger along with a "sweet whiskey O mine" cocktail and both were super delicious. The only complaint I had was the fries. While cooked perfectly had a fishy taste like possibly being cooked in the same oil as their fried fish. Other than that it was a great lunch and very enjoyable. Also I would recommend having a drinks special menu because it was confusing trying to find out what was on special and it took 3 different staff members to try and sort it out. Once again it was still a good meal.
Kimmy g
Been going there for years live it.
Amy Opal
The sever was amazing. The food was good. I got the Turkey burger and it was one of the better ones I’ve had. The sweet potato fries where really great and worth going back for.
Dan
Very good experience, good local spot that’s actually better than five guys
Rachel Cantu
Food was good for the price. Atmosphere was delightful. Sat outdoors and enjoyed ourselves. Servers were not wearing a mask.
jorge dominguez
First time eating here with my family the hamburgers delicious,I love the onion rings,service was great thank Ashley will see you soon thanks for your great smile 😀😊and service GOD BLESS YOU 😇 …
Rowan
The service is fast and friendly. Had the #198 and the burger was juicy and flavorful. Definitely going to come back again and try some of their other foods.
Jesse (NOYDB)
Place is really good and have been coming to Tookie's since the old location.
Karen Armstrong
Awesome as always. Good live music on back patio was a nice surprise. Our guests from out of state loved it. Its a local favorite. Food and service have always been great.
Logan C
Excellent burgers, excellent sweet potato fries. I got the BBQ burger. Staff was very friendly. The place and restrooms were very clean. Great atmosphere. Fair prices. Can't beat this place if your looking for a good local burger joint. Highly recommend
Martin Reyna
Great food, great service and good prices.. if you want a good burger this is your place in Kemah... the Squealer is my personal favorite

Burger patties were so chunky, made me full than 4x4 from IN-N-OUT!
Nicole Nelles
My family really likes going here. There has always been parking when we wanted to go. The restaurant is casual and the food has been always good. The chicken sandwiches are enormous! There are games on the deck outside, which always keeps the kids happy. I recommend eating here before going to the boardwalk!
Demetrius Taylor
Great service, I love this place! William is awesome, exceeded my expectations and made sure my party had a wonderful experience. 5 STARS!!!

Tookies always delivers when it comes to the taste and value of their menu dishes. This place is a very popular jewel of an icon in the Galveston Bay area, located in Kemah, TX. The staff acknowledges their customers not just upon entry, but throughout one's visit. They are pleasant and attentive, and always with a smile. Our table received a visit from who I imagine was the manager to ask if all was fine. Two thumbs up for the food quality and staff of Tookies!

This is hands down the best burger I've ever eaten in my 45 years of life! The prices are extremely reasonable. Even the drinks are cheap compared to other restaurants in the area. The staff is very helpful and extremely friendly. We went in 20 minutes before close and were still treated like royalty. If you've never been here, you're really missing out!
JoAnne Macias
Food was really good. Chili was sweet so that was a little different. Burgers tho were awesome. Our waitress Ashley was really good and on point with everything. Parking was hectic. But that's just Kemah on a beautiful Sunday. It's expected.
Rob Brown
Really good. The shakes were amazing. Portions are pretty large, though (for some this is probably a plus).
bobby flores
Still Amazing after 30 years that I know of Tookies!
Clayton Taylor
Much to my surprise, this foodie favorite had changed locations since the last time I was there. Fortunately, the food and the service had not. I still stick with my original assessment, that it is one of the best burgers I've ever had. The place was packed when I arrived, and people continued to pour in the whole time I was there. The staff is all super friendly, especially the waitress that served me. You owe it to your taste buds to make the trip down to Kemah, and visit this staple of their community.
Stephanie Gutierrez
Absolutely loved eating at this establishment. I'm from San Antonio and I'm here on a mini vacation with my family and we all loved it. The food was delicious, the customer service was on point and the atmosphere was great. Will definitely be coming back in the future. Thank you!
Duralyn Owings
Great burgers and fries. They also have some of the best onion rings and offer half fries , half onion rings when you can't decide on which one. Overlooks the marina , so the outdoor patio is a primo spot for dining with a view. Great food, large portions, great low prices for quality food. Indoor and outdoor dining and cocktails. Music playing over speakers, easy listening , all ages .
Amber Riise
I love this place. For the appetizer you have to try the pelican eggs! They are beyond amazing and our family's favorite. Their burgers and sides are all always cooked to perfection! The service is always top notch!
Laura Williams
Best burgers in the Houston area at the best price. I like to get the 1/4 lb. kids portion that comes with a side. I still leave stuffed, but it’s the perfect amount and a little portion of those delicious hula hoops (the thin onion rings).
Rick Boeker
Delicious. Always. Nice outdoor patio. With ongoing construction on highway 146, pack your patience, you’ll be able to see Tookies long before you arrive but the pay-off is worth it. As with all Kemah destinations, they experience high volume. I always get lucky with prime parking on the North side of the building.
Vaughn McCamy
Wife and I go here probably once every couple of months. I really liked the old one across the bridge. The burgers seemed better cooked on an old seasoned grill. I finally stopped getting the double meat and hurting myself finishing it. Plus they added some new thin cut onion twist that was great I forgot what the name of them was.
Shawn Buster
PELICAN EGGS!!!!!!!! the wife and I can't eat enough of them. The burgers are delicious. She got the chili cheese burger and I got the bbq burger. Makes my mouth water can't wait to be back for more!!!!
David Capuchino
Me and my wife love the burgers and boudin balls here. No complaints.
Richard Gerhardt
1st time visitors, very pleased. The prices are very reasonable, great service, really enjoyed the cheeseburgers and combo of onion rings and fries.
William Kelly
Great place to eat... Loved the fish, humungus onion rings and boudin balls. However, the silverware wasn't that clean I had to get new silverware because they had food in the first set that they gave me other than that great experience going to go back and eat the fish.
Zachary Fowler
The best burgers and friendly wait staff
Kendra Reed
This place is amazing! My husband had a BBQ burger, I had the Tookie's Cheeseburger with American cheese and mushrooms, our oldest had the chicken fried steak sandwich with american cheese, and the toddler had a kids cheeseburger meal with fries. The burgers had EXCELLENT flavor and were moist and juicy.
We also each had a soda/milk, plus an order of the giant onion rings, fried pickles and combo sweet potato fries/tots. They were all great!
The service was fabulous- our drinks were never empty. The atmosphere was great- it was noisy and busy- a train runs around the room!- and kept the kids entertained. Price was good, pretty much what we figured it would be- about $66 bucks w/ 20% gratitude. HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place!
Kimberly Ford
Second time here, staff is always amazing, food is fantastic, ambience is simple and homey. I had the buffalo chicken sandwich (best one I've ever had! Huge, crispy and delicious!), the hubs had the double meat burger (it was huge and almost too big for him to bite, but it was super yummy, I had a bite!) and our 11yo girl had the buffalo chicken strips. She said they were really good. The ranch is homemade and so good, the michelada was spicy and very tasty. We also had the pelican eggs which were surprisingly scrumptious, and the hula hoops and fried pickles, both very impressive. All in all a great place! Not too pricey but the food is phenomenal. Definitely a must try!
Barbara McNeel
Love their hamburgers and sweet potato fries
Ancela Terry
This place has the best hamburgers, fries and onion rings. I would give 10 stars if I could.
Ruby Lemon
Best burgers ever! I travel from Houston just to get an amazing burger! The onion rings are super huge and I haven't found a burger joint to match this place! Been a loyal customer since I was a child! I love the new building too! The Squealer will change your life!
Tanya B
Oh my, what a great place!!! I had not been here until about 3 weeks ago, but I am now a regular! They have a burger that has onions in the meat and marinated in a wine sauce that is to die for!! Their fries are served in large portions and they're very tasty! MY #1 GO-TO BURGER PLACE!!!
jacquelyn camper
I'm prejudice
Chicago has the best food!!!
Paul Marquardt
Definitely one of the greatest burgers out there. Personally I prefer the Squealer but my wife loves the 99. House divided?!? Regardless of your burger preference they have one to fill you up. Get an order of onion rings for the table. An order will feed 3-4 people. Great ambience for the family. The train room is always a hit. Decent bar selection. Service is always good and reasonably fast for such a busy place. Expect a crowd on the weekend or regular busy times during the week like lunch and dinner times. Enjoy the patio and hang out with a cold drink.
David Cole
We used to go to the original Tookies as a kid in the 70s. Haven't been back to Tookies in years. I was surprised and happy to find the food as delicious as I remember. The burgers and onion rings are awesome! Try the chalupa appetizer too! They still have the #98 and #198 burgers, which was actually the price on the menu when I was a kid - 98 cents and $1.98!
Jane Doe
Took my friend out for lunch it was my first time there the burger was really good when there few days later got lunch for work good prices staff was friendly I'll be going back my kids will enjoy this place
Margaret Nikel
This place is great most of the time or just another burger sometimes.
I think it depends on cook.
Onion rings good.
We had a large party and had a little bit of everything . No one complained but this was kind of a so so day.
Kiddos enjoyed the birthday shake and playing on deck.
Parking is a little hard.
Deck is fun to watch sail boats bob. Train room can be a little noisy but the train doesn't run constantly.
Never had a bad experience
Staff always friendly.
Jonathan Butcher
Good burger. Well cooked. Bun is not half the burger like some places.
Chey Song
I can't say enough. Great weekend burger joint atmosphere. You will wait a bit to get seated it's that good. Love the decor. The staff is friendly. Food is fabulous and plentiful. My fave burger so far has been the bacon Bacon. Bacon in the meat and on the burger. They have fish , turkey and veggies burgers and sandwiches too. Fries and onion rings are great. It's pricey but it's special.
Connor Mueller
Just visited that place today want to share my experience!
My burger was alright (I did not like the bun that much), but the fries where good.
The staff was friendly, but the atmosphere was like low in energy.
I am gonna think about going there a second time!
Still thankful that they are open during this time hope business is going well!!!
Good luck guys !
Jorge Gustavo Mantilla Jacome (Coco)
Excelent food and nice people!!
Amy
This place has been a favorite of mine since I was a kid. I love their burgers and onion rings. Plus the atmosphere is fun and the service is usually good, with friendly people. I just went to the new location by the kemah boardwalk and nothing has changed, except the location. Even the look and atmosphere inside is the same. It is still just as good, and it's still one of my favorites.
Car Belle
I have no complaints at all about this place. Everything about the experience was amazing for a Saturday night dinner. The wait time was short, waiter was nice, also the drinks and food were BOMB. Plus the prices were reasonable which is always a plus.
Laura Bergeron
Burgers were excellent! My husband likes his burger(s) rare...dripping blood rare...it was cooked to order. I got the veggie burger, also excellent. Fried pickles, excellent! Onion rings are thick, huge and not over or under cooked. If you're looking for a good burger in this area, this is a good place to go. Prices are good too!
Michael Kinzer
Great burgers and service. Atmosphere is very enjoyable. Always love the little train chugging along at the top of the room. Great place and supportive of the local community. I'd say this is a must stop for any first-timers if you like a good burger.
m appleg8
The whole experience was really good. The food was fantastic had the number 99 with bacon wow that was a great burger. The onion rings were really tasty nice crunch and not overly seasoned just good crunchy batter and onion. Service was excellent our server was close but didn't hover didn't feel rushed even though we got there at 2:00 in the afternoon. If you are in the Seabrook area and need a fantastic hamburger stop by Tookie's Burgers.
Ryan Kennedy
The atmosphere is very casual, yet clean. The place can seem loud at times. The burgers are good for the price. They're not medium-rare outstanding, but they definitely hit the spot. The fries are mediocre; could be better, could be worse. The onion rings are thick and savory. Service was good. Overall, I have no significant complaints. I'd eat here again.
Brock Belmonte
Friendly staff, delicious food, and a overall fun environment. This is one of the best places in town to come for a burger. They have great home made onion rings both thick and thin, I highly recommend "The Squealer" It is one of their famous burgers. It has bacon mixed into the patty and adds so much extra flavor!
Susan Zingleman
First time there. Awesome experience. Will go back.
Lady Texan
Fast, friendly wait staff. Great tasting cheesesticks for an appetizer. Good burgers and big BLT!
Joshua Bott
Great service and even better food. Definitely recommend the pelican eggs and the squealer.
Tom Shott
This is a destination for the NASA area. Food and service are great. Specialties are hamburgers and onion rings. Have fun.
Camilo Gonzalez
This is the place to go. Amazing food and atmosphere.
demond kelley
Very good food. The food portions there are what you pay for. The service was also very good as well. I ordered the double meat cheeseburger. It was almost 1lb of meat in between the buns. I will definitely return. I would definitely recommend to family, friends, and co-workers.
Laura Hogue
Get the #99 burger. The wine marinade does something amazing to the beef. Unless you get there at the start of meal service you may want to avoid the patio. We sat by the boats which initially was amazing but while getting up and my husband left to get a to go container a seagull swooped down and stole one of my toddler's chicken strips.
Teresa Alvarado
In from NC.... it just wasn't the same as I remember. It could have just been an off day but when I lived here there never was an off day. My burger was very dry and no flavor. Fries were good. Chicken tenders were good. I tasted my friend's blackened fish sandwich and it was delicious. I wish I had ordered that.
Roy Wilkins
Been eating their since they open. Here lately the food has been extremely salty. I love salt but it was to much to even finish my burger. Even the onion rings was salty. We had the Stomps , 99 , regular cheese burger, French Frieds and onion rings and they was all to salty. Other that that everything else was great. Atmosphere, service and cleanest.
Mary Johnson
Used to frequent here with family before Hurricane Ike. So glad it was rebuilt. Returned recently and the staff were nice and food great just like before. The place seems a little bigger than before but it's still decorated in a similar casual fashion. Highly recommend for a great burger (large portions though).
Joi Enault
Cute place. Nice to eat outside with a great view. Fabulous onion rings!!
maher bashawry
The best burgers me and my family ever had. The food is so delicious especially 198 with egg ❤️, the service is fast, all the waiters and waitresses are handsome and beautiful. I would give it a 10 stars. I recommend it to all of my friends and family.
Thank you
Kendra Dube
Super fast service! Fresh and hot amazing onion rings! HAVE TO TRY ITEM. Don't get me started on how juicy the burger was. I still have dreams about how perfect it was. Every time I come back i have had great service and great food! We drive almost two hours to get the best burgers on the coast! Try it once and you'll be back for more!
Josh B
Had a pretty good experience the times that I've been here. The burgers on my last trip were good, as always, but the onion rings left something to be desired. They were cooked well, but there was no seasoning or flavor to the batter on them. I'll opt for the fries next time, which were also good.
Lawrence Aleman
The place is great! The food was fantastic! Service was the best! We had fried pickles, an assortment of burgers, onion rings (best ever), fries and sweet potato fries. Everything was perfect. If y8down by the boardwalk in Kemah, you need to make a stop here. Highly recommend!
Yvette Rodriguez
Deliciously huge burgers! Fried jalapeños were really good, too.
Andrew Prather
Very loud.. but the staff are awesome and the food is pretty good. Seems like some things have changed over the years.
Aaron Holden
Best burgers and chicken strips in town! I also love the hula hoop(thin) onion rings. Don't hesitate if you are looking for a tasty burger!
cory smith (Bleuz)
Excellent burger. Nice fresh toppings and the right amount of grease to it. I had the squealer with bacon blended into the meat and it didnt disappoint. Ample amounts of bacon. The onion rings were spot on as well. Nice light crispy coating that was well seasoned (which is often missing from rings) and stuck right to them perfectly.
Bekah H
We are visiting from Nashville and the burgers are amazing! You have to check this place out .
We came around 9:15 on a Saturday night and it wasn’t extremely busy . The only down was it took a waitress a good minute to come to our table outside. We visit every summer and this will be a spot we revisit !
Gary MacGregor
Good burgers. But I must've caught an "off day". I had the bacon burger (bacon mixed into the beef) and it was fairly dry for what it was. Almost as dry as a Whataburger. And got the lukewarm Fries and Onion Rings combo.... lukewarm and soggy. Service was good even though we went thirsty between refills for an annoying amount of time. I will try this place the next time I come through and see if it's better.
The receptionist at the hotel had referred us and was disappointed in my comments and was first to say it was probably an "off day"
Derek R
It lives up to the hype. My friend and I have been scouting out restaurants in our area and were in the mood for burgers. I had eaten here when I was little...but that was probably 30 years ago...so I was curious to see how it had changed over the years. For an appetizer, we shared the fried pickles...the BEST I've ever had...anywhere. Lightly breaded and fried. Not greasy. Not too salty. Just perfectly sour and crispy. The burgers were thick and juicy and full of flavor. I had a cheeseburger and he had a 198 burger. Both were cooked perfectly and were delicious. We shared a combo tater tots and onion rings (which were huge and savory/sweet). Even the sodas were nice and fizzy (I hate flat sodas). And best of all, the service was excellent. Seriously, our waitress was super friendly and attentive. Bravo, Tookies!
Adam Burkey
First time I've been there since they've moved from their old place. Like this place a lot more as it's brighter and more open. The food is usually very good for all of the options that I have tried. Waitress was really helpful and did a good job. The food still takes a long time to get to you especially if you have any size of a group. Overall the experience was pretty good
Katlain Allen
Delicious burgers! The food came out so fast. The staff was very quick and came to check on us multiple times.
Franco S
Best burger joint in Seabrook. The pricing is reasonable. Definitely stop if you want an excellent burger in the town. Close to Kemah which is also excellent.
Minister Andrea Evans
The best burgers I've ever had. A single meet could really be shared between 2 people and the chili cheese tots are great. The chicken fried chicken is number 1 in my book. Please go eat at this relaxing family restaurant.
AJ Arriaga
Had the opportunity to visit and was surprised by the flavor of the 99. I'm usually not a fan of burgers, but this one was exceptional compared to most. The onion rings, in any form, were also quite good. The tater tots were not special in any way, however, and I'm fairly certain I could buy the same in the freezer section at any store
Ashley Almanza
Oh man ! The best boudain balls I’ve ever had! Service was great, Christian was very attentive and had a great attitude. Burgers ... made just the way we requested them... cooked to perfection... best burgers I’ve had in a while !!!
Definitely recommend over the other places in the area!!!! Great environment for either a few drinks or an outing with the family
Christie Henderson
Food excellent as always. I had a Tookie cheeseburger. My husband had the Squealer and said it was way over cooked, the edges were burned! Fry/ring combo was great and the bombshells were great as always! The parking is tight. I was surprised when they chose that location to relocate. Just kind of difficult especially if coming from LaPorte, because of the construction.
SHAMICKIA VALLIER-NATT
First time trying this place. I was not disappointed. The burgers and onion rings are really big and really really good. The price is even better. Me, my husband and sister in law only spent about $30 total. Compared to what we would have spent on the boardwalk. The staff is friendly and very helpful. We will definitely go back.
Bridget Alonso
Best burger place in Texas! Hands down the best stuffed jalapenos, they call them pelican eggs !
Las Reinas Garcia
I've always had a great experience here. Even when they had a smaller place. Tonight though they went above and beyond. Well Ashley did. My husband had been craving rookies and it was 20 min to close. He was on stand by time at a plant and well he called, she let him place his order and said she would wait for him to pick it up. He ordered me chili cheese fries and she was thoughtful. She decided to put the chili and cheese in small containers so that they wouldn't make fries soggy. Thabk you Ashley, for treating my husband well. We appreciate this kind of treatment. You'll always have our business.
Mike Hilt
We dined here one evening and were very impressed with the service and food! We loved everything from the fried pickles,burgers, sweet potato fries and the fried chicken salad buffalo style. Huge portions and very reasonable pricing. Fast service and friendly people!
April Crider
Seriously the most flavorful burger I've ever had! And for less than $6?! You can't beat it. Atmosphere is relaxed, staff is attentive and friendly, and the view of the sailboats on the bay is an added bonus. Completely worth the trip out here from Webster!
Jeff Owens
5 stars not enough. Food is not just great, it's death-row-last-meal great. Burgers are lean yet juicy, hanging over the edge of the bun. Bun was strong, held together for entire meal. Onion rings as big as your hand. Wife's BLT had so much bacon that she HAD TO SHARE BACON with me. Thank you Frank for excellent service- you are a great representative of this establishment. I would be in BIG trouble if I lived in the area. Must be good: place is 50% full at 2:00 PM on a weekday.
Tucker Cosby
This restaurant was crowded for a Sunday night!The reviews rave on this place, but I left not understanding why. I spent $15 on a burger, beer, and a side of onion rings which is comparable to any known burger joint. The burger itself was nothing to write home about. The patty on the BBQ burger was thin, and I'd say it's only a league above Whataburger. I'll be trying another burger joint before going back. Service was great!
James Claypoole
Awesome lunch outside - Watch out for the birds! Great wait staff!
M Reyes
Went twice this week. Food and service are amazing. We learned to share our hamburgers (2 can share one) portions are big. The hamburgers are juicy and they have flavor! The restaurant is clean with friendly staff.
JDP
The food was good. Quality of the service was questionable. Not once did the waitress approach our table during the meal to ask if everything was satisfactory. Twice during the meal I had to stop dining and wait until I could get the attention of the waitress to refill a water glass or bring another bread. Then the waitress filled the water glass sloppily and splashed water into the bread. She took the bread basket and came back with another bread, but the napkin under the bread looked and felt wet. Although the waitress was polite, I want to believe she is just not experienced instead of intentionally providing poor service. Little things like when bringing a 'to go' container it was delivered without a plastic bag. I had to ask for a bag which she provided. I will give this restaurant one more visit before deciding to cross it off the list. The receipt was time stamped 11/30/2018 12:30PM, total $69.84 if a restaurant manager is interested in improving the quality of service.
Adrian N
Easily some of the best burgers I’ve had in my life. And what’s even better, is that they’re 7-8 dollars at the max. If you’re visiting Kemah, come here.
My only issue was our waitress getting our orders wrong initially, but she quickly fixed it. Service was good overall!
Jeff Brower (PV Coach)
Quick, scrumptious, friendly, good value
Traci Hendricks
This place was soo good! It was better than any overpriced meal we had all weekend.
Tuvoc
The pelican eggs were delightfully crispy and filled with pure deliciousness, a perfect appetizer.
Sophia C
Stopped only bc we had been to Tookies Seafood the night before & it was amazing but Man the burgers were delicious. Kudos to Tookie owners for perfecting S.eafood & Burgers. The onion rings were amazing too. Best restaurants in Kemah. Will be back if ever in the area again.
Michael Chase
Always the best! Been going since it opened in the 70's, and even though it's a new location and different owners, the recipes are still the same. Love the #99 and the onion rings, but the Stomp's is really good as well.
Denise Parker
The burger was good The burger patties were then I was looking for more of a homemade thicker patties . They had more dressing then meat. It look like the patties came from out of a box ,not hand made. It was my first time going to Tookie's. Don't get me wrong I'll be back to try some other burgers. I love me some burgers. 😉😊
The drink was not strong enough.
The waiter was very nice and did his job well, Omg ...the pelican eggs was so good. "Must try". Go and visit for yourself and you make your own judgment.
Other then that nice place to visit , you can also eat outside.
Enjoy .
Chris Potts
Got the double burger, with a big group with me and spring break in and it being a Thursday nt, wait was only 10 min and got in sooner. Waiter tyler was good and food was awesome. With 2 ppl on a separate ticket, with everything we got, bill was only 35.00.
Maria Rios
My husband and I enjoyed an awesome dining experience at Tookies Burgers! From the moment we walked in Tookies and were greeted with warm smiles from the Hostesses..to seating us at our table and we chose to sit outside and it we were greeted by our Supercool Server named Raven whom attended us and made our dining experience an amazing one! Excellent Food and Service!
Chris Eberbach
Excellent customer service. They make addicting onion rings. Every time I pick up my nephew from his job there I don't leave without an order. Oh, they make very tasty burgers. Debating on getting a job there myself.
Hiram P
My family and friends really ENJOYED our food. To top it off we ordered it to go. Even then our food was still nice and hot! If your looking for a burger spot and other good foods I highly recommend tookies! It was our first time we didnt get to dine in but we will be back and will dine in for sure! Maybe I'll change it to 5 star when we go eat there . Very good PRICES! You will not be disappointed trust me! Also they triple checked they got all of our food correctly and were very polite thank you!!
James Smith
My waitress was exceptionally friendly and kept a smile the entire time I was there. Portions are large and food quality was outstanding. Despite being a sit down restaurant, food was out and served within 10 minutes of placing the order. Pricing is very comparable to quality around $8 to $10 for entree. Definitely a must have if you're around the Kemah/Clear Lake/Webster area.
Madi Lissette
Great customer service, they never get my order wrong , always delicious !
Mark Schrock
First time I've been back since they moved locations. They definitely didn't disappoint food was great and the waiter was even better. It was a nice day to sit out on the patio and eat a burger.
Marie Neely
Good selection of different burgers with toppings. Sides are separate (fries or onion rings). My family went to celebrate a birthday. Our waitress was knowledgeable, and handled a large party quickly and professionally. They serve milkshakes also which seemed to be a hit. I had the bbq burger and sweet potato fries.
Shar F
Great food and atmosphere in Kemah Texas! Right next to the beach and boats. Highly recommend for friends and family 👪 …
Tessa Staley
This place is awesome! Food was great and very reasonably priced.
Kim Yaknowwho
Always a great experience here!!! They teach the teenagers GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE SKILLS HERE!!!! A MUST GO PLACE FOR GREAT FOOD AND CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!!
Michelle Chaisson
I ordered a double cheeseburger with a lettuce wrap instead of a bun. It was so big that I had trouble eating it! And it was so good! I had sweet potato fries with it, and they were excellent, crispy and delicious!
Jason Sanchez
Great service & some of the best burgers we've ever ate. We're definitely going back soon.
Alana Wells Maresh
Great burgers and healing amounts for the sides. We had the onion rings and tots. Took home lots of onion rings! Good beer on draft too though I forgot to ask if the one I ordered was a local brew. Burger was perfectly done, juicy, and good price!
Derek Fernandes
Pelican eggs are great. Piggy back...probably the most greasy bland burger I've ever had. Filled my plate up with a puddle of grease. Pass on that one. Others are probably good. Eh..
Rix Cambelini
Bottomless cherry cokes, fantastic onion rings, signature hamburgers
Irene Ogeto
I ordered the Tookie’s cheeseburger and it was okay. Not bad at all, just good. It was very fulfill because of the size. Great service and relaxed atmosphere. Great place to grab dinner for 4th of July and watching fireworks at the boardwalk.
E.M.
Wow! Wow! Wow! Amazing burger. I had the #99 with sweet potato fries and a cherry coke. Service was great and prices are perfect. The burger was so darn good that I didn't want to finish it. I'll return if I'm in Kemah again.
Jeff Joyce
Food is very well done for the price. Classic comfort food burgers and fried items. Pelican eggs were perfectly cooked, and the onion rings looked at tasted awesome. Seems to be very popular with locals and pretty busy.
Melissa Gore
Went on Nov 11 and the service and food were great! I hadn't been in years and the food was just as I remembered it. I wish I could remember our waitresses name, because she was incredible!
Went again on Nov 13 and my hamburger bun was soggy and our waitress, Jackie, was terrible. I couldn't believe the change in just 2 days.
I give them 3.5 stars for onion ring consistency and my first visit. Otherwise, if it wasn't for the Nov 13 visit, 5 stars would have been given.
Leah McManis
The best food! My family of 4 ordered the famous onion rings, fried pickles, BLT, steak sandwich, chicken tenders, and a corn dog. For fried food it wasn't greasy like you would think. The train was kind of loud so that was the only thing disappointing. Waiter was super cool. And for a family of 4 we kept it under 50$. We will be back, thank you tookies staff for a wonder meal and a great time. 😁
Mary Fosdick
We had a great time there. Our server, Sean, was very pleasant and made us feel welcome. The burgers are huge and tasty. But there is no onion ring quite as good as Tookies.
Terry Hart
I have been eating there since the late 70's yet I moved away in 1990 and moved back to this area recently. I always ordered the 99 as I dud today. It was delicious like I remembered it being. They moved to Kemah which surprised me but I heard it was be a use of hurricane Harvey but at least they rebuild and started up again. I would hate to see this place moved off the map. I have loved this burger more than any burger I have ever eaten and will continue to go back over and over again. Thank you Tookies for riding the storm out and coming on top again. You have many more loyal fans out there other than me. Keep up the good work and people will come because as far as I am concerned there is no better burger joint that I am aware of. Thank you.
Two Garcias
Been coming here for 15+ years. The squealer is my comfort food, they cook the bacon in the patty which makes the patty juicy and flavorful. Onion rings are huge and a nice thick slice of onion. The chicken buffalo sandwich is also a great choice.
Chris Rizzo
menu was a little confusing but when my order came out wrong they were quick to correct it. our waitress could've been more attentive but overall it was a decent meal. I wouldn't give their burgers such high praise as advertised. It was a good choice but the options were limited for the area, especially on a Sunday evening.
Brian Goldman
This place has been a staple of the area for the 40 years we have lived here. Due to growth and highway expansion they moved to their current location. The one thing that remains the same is the quality, taste and service. All is excellent. I could probably come in and just eat their onion rings. The best ever, anywhere.
Monica Samuel
Amazing, delicious food, & and a great view
Carlos Martinez
Great burger and great atmosphere. I had the buffalo chicken sandwich and my wife had the boudin balls.
Eli Torres
We’ve been coming to Tookies for years. Definitely our favorite local burger joint. I personally enjoy the grilled chicken sandwich and we love their fried pickles.
Their service is always top notch.

HUGE burgers and sandwiches and big plates of fries!! I got the Buffalo Chicken sandwich and it was very yummy! The waitress was young and forgetful but was so attentive that it didn't bother me. The deck is really nice and with the fans and a breeze it felt great even in the hot Houston weather. The restrooms were nice and clean, but it was like a maze trying to find them when you're coming in from the deck, lol. We didn't sit inside so not entirely sure what the atmosphere is like in there.
All in all I liked this restaurant!

It was an okay place. I do like flavorful food, but our food was extremely salty. It was not just me that noticed it, so it wasn't just a me thing. We ordered fried pickles, fried green beens, stuffed jalapenos, fries & cheeseburgers. We weren't able to eat & enjoy the appetizers due to it. This was my experience. Do not let it stop you from giving this place a try. It was more than likely just an accident going overboard with the salt.

Awesome burgers. My favorite is the Champion with jalapeños, bacon, and fried egg!!! Try it!
