"Keller's is one of the few remaining drive-ins in town, and it’s been serving up delicious, thin-pattied burgers on poppy seed-encrusted buns since 1965. Get a side of tots and a milkshake to go with it." - Eater Staff

"Technically a drive-in and not a drive-thru, Keller’s has been serving up one of Dallas’s most beloved burgers since 1950. Pull up, flash your headlights, and prepare to experience burger bliss on a poppyseed bun. Definitely don’t forget to add a side of super-crunchy tots." - Amy McCarthy

Great prices for tasty food. Servers were happy, friendly, and helpful with questions. Food orders came out very quick considering they are not previously prepared. Easy access from northwest hwy. We ordered hamburgers that were modified without errors. I got mine with the grilled onions, which were fantastic. My friend got her’s without onions and tater tots. The “dive” spot comes from the dated decor & grounds, but food is still “spot on” drive in eats!

I honestly think the burger I got here was the best I've had considering the ingredients were super simple. The fries and onion rings are good, but the burgers are definitely the stars of the show. I probably wouldn't go for a long walk in that neighborhood to burn off the calories after dark though, just in case you're considering it.

Keller's was brought to my attention by a review on a local newspaper. We got #5 and it was good. The price was above what was described on the review. I was craving for a milkshake but they don't have it on the menu. The waitress was friendly and promptly. The venue/facilites need mainteniance. The restroom looks old, but it was clean.

Total dive place and I loved it. I mean, what’s not to love in a business this run down that puts out some of the tastiest food for such a low price? The #5 Special burger and onion rings were both perfectly cooked, and sent me on down the road happy. I made the detour in my trip plans to try this place and it did not disappoint.

I've been coming here since I was a kid. I come and get a burger every time I come to the doctors. Great food and always great service.

I recently visited this hamburger shack on a trip to the Dallas area. It was a drive-in spot with a rustic, old-school feel. The service was quick and the food was as expected. The burger was simple but still tasted good. The fries and tater tots were average. The price of everything was cheap enough to give this a try instead of the other fast food chains. Go for nostalgia, not necessarily the quality of food.

Not bad for $4.71! Probably should of got a double! Never the less it was pretty good.

Always wanted to try this place and so glad I finally did this summer! The food is unique and great and the prices are very affordable!! Our waitress was also very sweet and helpful. I’m very glad a place like this is still around, definitely feels like your taking a step back in time, I love it! I recommend this spot to all in the area.

Nice little spot to stop and get an Affordable Burger that does the job! This burger joint packs some flavor! Fast and Simple service! Wait in your car and they take your order :) The kind man/fella who is running the orders was very helpful and quick to take my order. Props man! Keep working hard. -Great customer service. 10/10 The burger itself is not gigantic but the Double did me justice! The meat was cooked well, held together real nice! Not a sloppy sandwich. Great burger , i can see why people like this place. The Taste and My Overall Score is a solid 7/10 ‼ I cant complain too much because its a great price for some hot good food. It wouldnt make sense to ask for a bigger burger so what can i say except Thank You Kellers for the great meal! I Also must say yall got some good fries here! 10/10 No complaints about the taters That (State Fair Brand) Corn Dog was exceptionally tasty. Nice hot fluffy bite and reminded me of ferris wheels and funnel cakes 10/10 -Thank You Again, Keller's Drive-In -Santangelo Balli Gonzales *Visiting from Houston*

Every single car around me had their ordered taken and had driven off and no one even bothered to look my way. When I was the only one on the lot, two female employees stood on the lot talking and still ignored me. FINALLY, after 17 minutes, when I made eye contact and waved, someone came over to help me. I would really hate to think it was because I was the only black person on the parking lot.

Yelp
An old-school drive-in where the attendant will come up to your car and take your order. They got my order wrong, and the burger itself was nothing special. I personally thought it was underseasoned and a bit rubbery. The tater tots were crunchy and yummy. Note: They now will take credit cards.

Yelp
SAY IT ISN'T SO!! Drove by yesterday and NO vehicles and all signage gone??? Guessing when Biden's Build Back Better inflation hit them and they went from $4 to $6+ dollar burgers, others besides me just quit buying?? Very sad if true! Will be by there next week and see if any change in status. Another piece of history comes to an end!

Carla S.

Yelp
I want to like this place, with the history and all. Plus the lil old ladies serving cars are super sweet. But the place looks more run down than nostalgic. Burgers here are just okay -- beef has little flavor or seasoning, patty well-done and a bit too tough. Poppy seeds were a nice touch on the bun, but I thought it was too big and bready and got in the way some. Fries came barely warm. It is nice having a classic drive-in still operating. I gave them an extra star for great service and their old school menu prices. But I'm not sure it was good enough to bring me back.

Bella C.

Yelp
Ok - this place is actually so dank. I ate my food so fast i couldn't even take a picture of the burger so enjoy a photo of the crispy cronchy onion rings. The guy taking our order was so nice and came out to my car as soon as i pulled up. We also ordered modelo's which i feel like i can't post on here bc of legal reasons? anyways the burger was fire and the atmosphere was a little sketchy but soooo worth it. 9/10!

First time at this location. Burgers are good and employees are nice. My kids enjoyed the drive-in experience--They take the order at your car and bring your food out.

Patrick M.

Saw reviews for this burger joint and decided to give it a try. They do put out a very good burger with their very limited menu. Dining in your car or to go.

Darren N.

Yelp
First off they come to your car no need to get out of your vehicle. I got the #5 special. Fries and drinks are sold separately. Total came out to like 9.35 for a double meat burger with fries and drink. I tipped the waitress as well. But back to the food. The burger was small as hell but it was ok. The fries were trash. They tasted cheap. Like paper and oil. I don't think I'll come back. I pass this place every time I'm in the area for work and never thought to stop until I seen it on a Dallas food page. And they really gassed the place up calling it a hidden gem lmfao. I was tricked. But anyways. I've had better burgers. I'm not saying don't go. Just don't expect to wowed.

Kay M.

Yelp
I saw this place on IG and figured I would try it out. It was just ok. I expected the meat to at least be more than lukewarm. Also my order was wrong, but I didn't complain.

You're not going to this location for any aesthetic. The blonde cute waitress was incredibly sweet with my awkward order. She was patient with us and brought out our food in a timely matter, they were even able to break a $100 for us. The location is a little bit off the grid, but if I were to frequent that area I would visit that location often. The burgers have the right amount of grease to keep the wrapping paper drenched but not them bag itself, a good middle. The burgers and big yet compact enough to easily eat in your car. The fries were incredible, they were golden and crispy on the outside while soft on the inside. You could taste that they were fresh, no ridiculous amount of salt. The grilled cheese was okay, this one wasn't too greasy but did have a soggy bottom. It almost reminded me of a packed school lunch grilled cheese but not in a bad way. This place is definitely worth stopping at.

Justin K.

Yelp
Excellent as always. Haven't been to a Keller's in 5 years and the food was just as good as I remember. If you come at lunch, be patient, they are very busy. Drive-in vibes have not changed and they are still super pleasant and friendly serving staff. Strong recommend even after all these years

John P.

Yelp
I came for the burger and it was good. I pulled in about 8:20 PM , 3 or 4 minutes the carhop took my order, maybe 5-6 minutes my food was brought to me. A #5 which is a double cheeseburger, onion rings & and a root beer for $8. Tasty burger. Old building but who cares? Food quality trumps fancy surroundings any day.

David F.

It wasn't the Keller's I remember back in the 80's. The place looks run down, the food was meh, but the service was great. Our car hop was very friendly

Amy S.

Still the best burgers anywhere! Keller' has a fresh new coat of paint and that are now taking credit and debit cards. They have increased the prices just a bit yet so have most places. We got three burgers, French fries, tater tots, 2 pink lemonades, and a beer and the price came to $23. I don't know anywhere that could even come close to being that price and there is no where that can beat the quality. We have decided we need to make this a regular date location and often.

Nathan C.

Yelp
Quick service. Friendly staff. Authentic drive in experience. Food was hot and fresh. Amazing flavor. Would definitely recommend trying once. Less than 10$ for a double bacon cheeseburger and fries

Loops S.

Yelp
Yes this is the place to eat a hamburger. The ladies are great. They come out to your car and even helped us by telling us which combo was actually cheaper if you bought it as a kid's basket. It's the real deal here with their burgers and fries. It is t in the greatest neighborhood but that didn't bother me. Love it!

Haven't found a dive any worst then this burger joint in all of northwest Dallas. Ordered a burger only to regret it. Couldn't decide should I throw it away or give it to my dog. Roach haven 2.0

Good burger. Hit the spot after a hangover. Fountain coke is the best. Most likely come back.

Brings back memories of ole school burgers. They are great! The place is laid back and you can order beer! Food is brought to your car like and the tray is placed on your window like Sonic Drive Inn used to do in the old days.

Another great Keller's experience! We normally go to the North Central Expressway Keller's but this time we decided to visit the Harry Hines location. I would have to say I've still ate the best burger in Dallas and it is still an old-fashioned Time Capsule. You literally feel like you have went back in time. There are no electric speaker boxes to order through, no debit cards or credit cards accepted, and just great food for a great price! The food is Super Fresh and I believe it is meant for you to enjoy in your car so it is definitely the full CarHop experience.

Nova G.

Yelp
I was so disappointed. I visited Kellers on Harry Hines in Dallas today, 2/19/22. It took a while for the carhop to come take my order. She was an older lady and was nice but obviously stressed. I ordered a cheeseburger and tater tots. Then it took forever for her to bring the food. She brought me a Jr hamburger (just meat, bun and ketchup) and tots. I told her the problem. She took it back to correct it and brought me back what looked like the right size burger. I didn't check thoroughly TRUSTING that they had just corrected their mistake. I got home and later found out that they gave me the same Jr patty but dressed it up with the large cheeseburger bun and fixings. Needless to say, I won't be back. Ridiculous!

Steve M.

Yelp
Limited menu, but what they make, they make well. Homestyle burgers, cheap AF, even post Covid, you get prices from the early 2000's! The service is no better or worse than precovid as well. Can't get a better burger for under $5.

Matt F.

Yelp
One of the best burgers in Dallas. Some will say the best and won't get an argument out of me. My family has been coming here forever. Bang for buck is off the charts. Don't judge it by the outside as it looks like a dump! Bring cash as that is the only payment they accept. Come check it out!

Brandy S.

I LOVE trying new burger places and this place has been on my list for a while now but I try to limit my trips into Dallas. The hubs agreed to make the trip on Sunday since it was beautiful outside. It's very easy to get too and is most definitely a dive burger shop. There are several parking stops where you wait until a carhop comes to take your order. It's not like Sonic as there are no intercoms. It took a few minutes for someone to come take our order, which was fine since we had never been there and had the chance to look at the menu. We both ordered the #5 Special and added grilled onions. Hubs got onion rings and I got the tots w/cheese. Our food was out in no time, as they weren't very busy. I have to say, these burgers did NOT disappoint! First of all, they are larger than they look in pictures, next time I will just order a single because I was not able to finish mine. They were very messy but so delicious! The onion rings were very good and had a slight sweetness to the batter. Tots were good (how can you mess up tots?!) and covered with an American cheese slice. The hubs has no complaints either. All in all, I would say Keller's lived up to my expectations and I will definitely come back. Also, I've read reviews that it's cash only, but they do take debit cards, I think they prefer cash though.

It's a hike from Southlake but definitely worth the drive. Heard about this place on Thrillest and decided to give it a try. We pulled up and weren't 100% how to order but a helpful lady with a pleasant demeanor walked over and let us know that A. She'd be taking care of us and B. That it's cash only. Not a big deal - She told me where the two closest ATM's were and we told her we'd be back. (So bring cash. ATM is semi sketch) Parked again, our waitress, Fran, came back to the truck and greeted us. She told us a little history of the locations and their background - we ordered her recommendations which was a great decision. When the food came out, Fran said the total was $13.25. Mind blown... I gave her a $20 and told her to keep it. Hell, McDonalds costs what... $10 a person? We absolutely got our moneys worth! In summary, this is a great little find. Bring cash. The food makes Jake's and In-and-Out taste like reheated leftovers. :) A+++. Will come again.

We were looking for a drive in burger place and this one really stood out to us. You park your vehicle and they come out to you to take your order. The sesame buns they use is probably the best ones I ever had, maybe even better than the normal burger bun. The people there are down to earth and very family oriented. It's not located in the best location and their service is not top tier, but it's not something you would expect from ordering here. The burgers do not disappoint and the food comes out hot. On top of that, it's great quality food for cheap. We spent $13 for 2 combo meals. Highly recommend!!

Drive-in burger place, with alcohol like a cold beer with a delicious burger is a great spot! Prices are the best. Burgers are the tasty. Sitting in your car is nice. & Service is fast and friendly.

David J.

Yelp
So satisfying!!!! If you are looking for fancy keep looking... if your looking for classic old school delicious drive up diner this is the place! For less than 20 bucks you can score 2 delicious #5's some fries and onion rings and 2 beer. It's like the 50's never left. The girl that came to our car to take our order was super nice, and the food came out quick. Burgers are delicious with tomatoes, lettuce, cheese, and the bun... yummy. Hands down best fast food burger I've ever had... In & Out has NOTHING on this place. Onion rings were also so so good! If ya happen to be near by highly suggest you check out Keller

Todd B.

Yelp
Ok. It's great. If you dont like this place then you dont like American food. Onion rings are the real deal. Shakes are outstanding. My third time here and my son and I will keep coming back. Love both servers that I have encountered. Glad to have found this place. It fills a void that I had Michigan.

Nicole G.

Yelp
I am disappointed, after years of seeing how hyped up this place was I've always wanted to come here and try a new burger place Because... it's pretty rare finding a good burger spot am I right?? Besides In-N-Out or any other burger place but anyways I had came here with my boyfriend and first of all they didn't even have fries and I was like what... Who eats a burger without fries! And yeah the place may not look all fancy and boujee , but I mean it wasn't the worst burger i had , also the wait time wasn't at its finest I was just upset they didn't have fries the only thing that I enjoyed was the lemonade and it made me and my boyfriend very gassy for some reason and he has stomach cramps still and he says that fucked him up & honestly I Wouldn't want to come back here if I know it's going to have my stomach acting up

Piper M.

Yelp
What an experience. We met Casey the chef, who was the sweetest, warmest down to earth lady, ever. Made us feel at home and loved our dog, too. Told us there's a "puppy patty" with no bun, that came cut up. (Our doggy loved it!) Our server Fran was the bomb. She never rushed us and was so accommodating, we didn't want to leave our new friends at Keller's. She also was super sweet to our pup and brought her water. The hamburgers were the best I'd had in a long time. Double cheeseburger with the trimmings and grilled onions, it was exceptional, as were the fries. A flavor explosion with all-quality ingredients with prices so low, that don't seem real.

Sarah Hope F.

Get in here and support this institution before it's gone! Still a great burger and ice cold beer. Yum Yum

So I want to admit something, I almost didn't come to this location after seeing all of the other reviewers' concerns about safety. It wasn't until I noticed a theme in WHY people felt unsafe here that I decided to come anyways. I was here on a Friday night and there were no gangs, handguns, or anything to be concerned about. There was just a bunch of hispanic guys that appeared to be gathering for beers after work, which Keller's does sell. The whole back of the lot was full of people drinking beer, but it wasn't in the least bit concerning. The environment might be unsettling for those who aren't used to it, but your safety isn't in the least bit an issue here. Also worth noting that this location is definitely a bit run down in comparison to their other NW Highway location, but I don't need renovations to enjoy a good meal in my car. If I remember correctly the original Keller's location closed back in 2000, and this location has been around longer than the NW Highway location. So set your comforts aside and just eat a dang burger here already. Everything is incredibly cheap, it all tastes amazing, and the service was friendly and quick. What's better than that? Even their onion rings are great, and I typically despise wet battered rings. The chili here is absolutely addictive. I'm a fiend for chili cheese fries and I could easily gobble up a bucket of theirs. It is worth noting that they use a slice of cheese, not shredded cheese. To each their own. The burger though. It was fresh and satisfying. So hearty, yet light? For clarification, beef in general is typically dense and greasy for me. It can easily lag me down, but this burger didn't. I was able to stay up well past midnight for once, which is nearly impossible nowadays especially after a meal like this. Their chocolate shake is also good, but pretty on par with most places. Appears to be made with soft serve ice cream. Still cheap though, so that's a win in itself. Overall you'd be doing yourself a disservice if you didn't at least swing by for a meal. This place is a gem in itself, just maybe not the kind you're used to.

IM WRITING THIS REVIEW TO NOTIFY MANAGEMENT OF A COMPLAINT. If someone is pumping bass so loud that it shakes other people's cars, please ask them to leave or to stop. We asked a waitress to ask them to turn it down, and she came back with, "that's what they do here. They play their own music." Yeah. That's cool. The person next to us was playing music that I wasn't a fan of, but it didn't shake my car and it was at a volume that was tolerable. Simply putting up signs to be respectful of other customers isn't a bad idea. Having a group of people doors wide open while they tailgate with obnoxious throbbing music is not okay. With that being said. Great food. I've loved it my entire life. Great prices. Best around. Nice staff. We got checked up on a considerable amount of times. Easy parking. Usually not an issue in Dallas, but we don't have parking lots in LA. Everything was ready in a timely manner and the order was correct.

Yvonne C.

Yelp
This burger was AWFUL I only received 18 fries instead of the promised 22. The fries were not seasoned. I recommend Goff's burgers. There's is wide selection of beer at this location but the burger itself was not that great. We were excited to try this burger after many great reviews but it was NOT what we expected.

Jamie R.

FRAN IS THE BEST LADY OUT THERE!!! #5 is my go to with the special sauce. Onion rings are always fried to perfection. Cheese burgers are always great as well as the ice cold beer.

Great little drive in burger. This location is a little run down, but the food it top notch. One of the better burgers in DFW.

FRAN is AWESOME!!! Keller's is a Dallas institution. Great burgers, great fries, GREAT service.

Good burgers y'all. Of course it looks sketchy -- it's a DIVE. Our wait for burgers was maybe 10-15 mins since they are made to order. Burgers weren't too greasy. Chili cheese burger didn't have a ton of chili (good thing so it wasn't all over the place). Add bacon or jalapeños or both! Enjoy a cold beer if you'd like. They also have corn dogs and chili cheese dogs. Our teen enjoyed the cheese tots. You get lots of napkins. If you want to be overly prepared, take a kitchen towel for your lap. Our car hop/runner, Cindy, was nice...even coming back to check on us while we were eating. Be sure to take cash and tip your car hop/runner.

Amanda S.

Yelp
Great experience! The service was fast, the food is incredible, and you can't beat the price! Two burgers, fries, tater tots, and two drinks for $10. Our waitress/car hop, Fran, was so kind and made great recommendations on the menu. We will definitely be coming back soon!

Dave R.

Yelp
Ordered #5's, fries, tots and onion rings. Surprisingly, burgers were below average - not flavorful and a bit chewy. Fries and tots were good. Onion rings were ok, maybe a little too much batter. Why 1 star? Because 10 months into a pandemic, if you don't wear a mask when taking my order at a distance of 2 feet from my open car window and deliver the food in the same way, you don't deserve better.

Rachel D.

Yelp
Yallllllllllllllllllllll!!!!!!! This place is soooooo good! I don't know how to explain it. Why it took me so long to discover this place???!! Whyyyyyy???? My family went. When you drive in you are supposed to park and they will come out and get you going. That food is fresh fresh. Take cash! The food is cheap too. Like really cheap. It's an old building so prepare for that but the good is worthy of my funds. I'll definitely be back!

James B.

A great establishment with classic vibes. One of the best Cheap Eats in DFW. I could eat there weekly if I could.

This drive up has the best burgers! Fran took great care of us and explained the menu to our friends who hadn't been here before. The no. 5 is a must with fries and a beer.

Claudia S.

Yelp
2nd time at a Keller's, I went to the one by north park mall and absolutely loved it. I came here and it is set up the same way just a smaller location on a very different part of town, (Harry Hines). The services was very good. The burgers were good just cooked a little more than what I remember having at the other location. I don't know if they make all their burgers the same but I suggest asking if you can have it your way, I either get medium well or medium rare.

Jeffrey C.

Yelp
Still amazing Burgers after all these years, and incredible prices! My favorite is the classic number 5, and I add a patty for $0.70 to make it a triple! Side of tots for the win!

Kam N.

Yelp
Appreciate the nostalgic feel of this place, especially during Covid when dining in your car is a safe haven. The burgers (#8) were tasty but lacked any char. The patties almost looked like they were steamed and not griddled. Any amount of chat would have been fantastic. I can see how this would be an outstanding burger if more attention to detail was paid. I get it's a pandemic and we should cut places some slack but conversely, should restaurants in general be trying harder to ensure they survive rather than putting out subpar food? At the end of the day, it's a $3 burger and was still good. Fries were delicious and perfectly cooked.
