Dave's was another stop on what my son and I like to call "Burger Quest." We are trying out every Burger joint in the greater Waco area. It's a bit of a drive out to Lacey Lakeview from McGregor to experience this restaurant. In a lot of ways, the drive was worth it. You order at the counter then fill your drink and take a seat. The drink fountain sports several flavors of Boots Soda along with Dr Pepper and brewed tea. The decor is nothing special but it is clean. Dave's offers a food challenge for those who want to finish about four to five pounds of food in twelve minutes. The "Wall of Shame" and "Wall of Fame" boards have numerous pics but are sad substitute for a well decorated and branded dining room. Our food came out quick delivered by our cheerful counter boy. I ordered a cheeseburger, fries, onion rings, and homemade chips. Jacob ordered his usual carnivore delight of a bacon cheeseburger plain and dry with fries as well. Burgers were juicy; veges fresh and crisp. The only disappointment here were the buns. They needed a darker toast to stand up to the other ingredients. They were a little stodgy and limp. More time on the grill would help the bread to support the meat and veg. Fries were good but not all crisp. The homemade chips and onion rings were really crisp; a nice counterpoint to the burger. Everything was hot and fresh. If you're looking for a good standard flat top burger, Dave's is definitely worth a try.

Dave's food trailer was in Mexia, Tx on Wednesday, April 17th and it was my first time stopping by for food. It came highly recommended by a co-worker. I ordered a double-meat cheeseburger with mustard, extra lettuce & diced onions, and a large order of home fries, and a coke from the sweetest lady in the world. She asked me if this was my first time eating there from the truck and I told her it was my first time trying Dave's Burgers at all. The man cooking, I assume was "Dave" said, "Well we welcome you and thanks for stopping!" She gave me a bunch of business card magnets to pass out where I work. When I got to work, I opened my bag of food at the front gate and shared some of those fries with the guy at the front gate. He was like, "OMG! Those are those good fries! Those homemade ones!" Yes! They were amazing and had a small bite of sweetness to them. I couldn't wait to taste my burger. When I got to my office, I wolfed down a few more handfuls of fries then unwrapped my burger. I was like , I couldn't believe the monster burger I had there. I know it must have been 2/3 pounds of meat on there with 2 perfectly melted slices of American cheese. My bun was perfectly toasted, the perfect amount of mustard was on there as well as my extra shredded lettuce and diced onions. The meat patties were seasoned deliciously with what tasted like a garlic, salt, & pepper blend, maybe a little onion powder too. Whatever seasonings they used made me come to realize that I had just eaten the best burger I had ever eaten in my life. It was so big it made me two meals out of it that day cause I cut it in half. Next time, I will definitely order me two orders of fries. One to eat then and one to save for later because they were the type of fries you could reheat and they'd be just as good as when I got them fresh, unlike those hard fast food matchsticks that you have to eat in 5 minutes or less. Overall, I have to thank my stomach for telling me to stop at Dave's. I go to Waco once a month for my doctor, but now I can look forward to seeing Dave's Burgers food trailer in Mexia. Thanks y'all for bringing Waco's BEST burger to our small town. I certainly appreciate y'all and look forward to seeing you both again.

I had the chopped BBQ sandwich and it was outstanding! The soda selection was amazing coconut cream was refreshing and homemade fries was delicious. Loved it! Service was polite and sweet.
The burgers here are top-notch! They are so flavorful and juicy. I love the added items like a fried egg, avocado, fresh or pickled jalapeños, or bacon... The fries and tots are also addicting. They also have a Zipper Ripper challenge that looks interesting to try. You won't be disappointed with this place.
