(Hou) Clear Lake - Hamburger Places

[Cookie Baker]

Now that Tookies and South Shore Beer Garden are gone, thanks to Ike, where is a good place in the Clear Lake area for a burger and some rings?

I like Miller's cafe at the NE corner of Bay area and Space center.

It is sad to hear that Ike took out Tookies .... I had been doing there for over 20 years, and have some great memories of that place. I agree with TexasJeep -- Millers on Bay Area @ Space Center does have good juicy burgers, but Sweet Mesquite across the street used to have the BEST onion rings.

Other suggestions? I'll be traveling to the NASA area soon.

A good burger is always welcome.

I agree about the Sweet Mesquite onion rings. They are wonderful!!!

Burger Tex, if you stick to the burgers, is great for a quick cheap, no frills burger. They're set up like Fuddrucker's only for less money and a no "flair" environment, which I appreciate when all I want is a basic burger.
T-Bone Tom's is my go-to for all things burned cow flesh. Their burgers make me happy.
The Benson Burger at Seabrook Classic Cafe will light your fire. ( I call it a Bunsen Burner. Burns going in, burns coming.. well.. ahem.)
Tookies is gone. (moment of silence)
Cafe Express (mostly girl food) does do the best non-burger burgers (turkey, veggie, etc.) and they do offer a blue cheese and bacon burger which stops your heart and sends you to heaven before your teeth even sink into the patty.

That's very sad to hear Tookie's didn't make it through the hurricane.

I've heard Mooyah has opened a location on Bay Area Blvd, but they don't have onion rings.

I was not at all impressed by Mooyah. The fries are good but that is it. Miller's Cafe on Bay Area Blvd and Space Center Blvd. still has a good burger but the fries are not fresh anymore. I always got a really good cheddar burger at Salt Grass Steak House on 45 South. But Miller's is still my favorite.
