"Fun fact: Some believe the drive-in was invented in Dallas. Keller’s is one of the few remaining drive-ins in town, serving up delicious, thin-pattied burgers on its distinctive poppy seed-encrusted buns since 1965. Get a side of tots and a milkshake to go with it. When you pull up, stay in your car, and place your order with one of the car hops (there are no speakers and no drive-thru). It’s old-fashioned, one-on-one service only, here." - Eater Staff
"Founded by Jack Keller more than 50 years ago, this drive-in burger joint is a Dallas institution. Diners can still score a solid cheeseburger served on a poppy seed bun, crispy tater tots, and milkshake at an affordable price point." - Courtney E. Smith, Rachel Pinn
"If the budget got blown at NorthPark’s fancy shops, point the car just over to the east on Northwest Highway and grab a burger and fries at Keller’s, an iconic Dallas drive-thru." - Courtney E. Smith
"This longtime staple of Dallas’s burger scene boasts some of the best burgers — and prices — in town. Score a cheeseburger, tots, and drink for less than $10, and eat it all in the comfort of your own car." - Amy McCarthy
Old-school carhop service, poppy-seed buns, and thin, griddled patties keep this family-run institution woven into Dallas life. Frequently celebrated by the Dallas Observer and other local writers, Keller’s is pure, unfussy burger nostalgia that’s still going strong.
