Most Disliked
While Uncle Chops is largely celebrated, some guests report limited parking during peak hours, particularly on busy weekends. Finding a spot can be tricky, but street parking is usually available nearby. The lively atmosphere, although enjoyable, can get quite crowded, leading to a busier dining experience, especially during dinner rushes on Fridays. Additionally, a few reviews point to a slight delay in service during peak times, which may affect the overall experience. Despite these minor inconveniences, the friendly staff usually makes up for any waits, ensuring every diner leaves satisfied.

This place is an absolute hidden gem! I wasn’t sure what to expect from the panela cheese appetizer, but the moment I took my first bite, I was hooked—it was love at first taste. The flavors blended beautifully, creating the perfect start to the meal. The burgers were perfectly juicy and bursting with flavor, and my fried shrimp keto bowl was a showstopper—not only a feast for the eyes but a true delight for the palate. Every bite was absolutely delicious.

Suitable for queens and royals but still authentic for the common folks. This fare is super great yet not outrageously stuffy. Gourmet flavors and combination ms without the pretense. Burgers are off the charts. Salmon bowls. Fish tacos. The tortillas are part wheat flour, part maíz and 100% delicious. Indoor spaces and outdoor areas. Great for date night or groups. Always try to find a reason to head to Weslaco. You won’t regret it! Friendly staff. Clean bathrooms. Bar with expanded drink offerings. Sweet tea is the bomb diggity!

I rarely give five stars but Uncle Chops deserves ALL FIVE. The staff was friendly and funny and despite the place hopping, we easily found a table. I have had many bunless burgers, but this keto burger with sweet potatoes fries and salad sent taste buds into orbit! Flavorful, tender and perfectly cooked. This hidden gem is a must visit. Favorite burger place hands down! Well done Uncle Chops! If there was any ding it was minimal parking but there was street parking available.

I’ve ate at this place three times since finding out about it two weeks ago. That should tell all you need to know about how amazing this restaurant is. The salmon keto bowl is worth all the hype and their burgers are just as fantastic. We loved everything about this place; the atmosphere, the music, the service, and especially the food. Definitely worth the 30 minute drive every time.

The Mac and Cheese balls were delicious. The Salmon Burger and Bacon Cheeseburger were top notch. They were big and very flavorful. It was one of the best burgers that I’ve had in a very long time. The regular and sweet potato fries were very tasty. The outdoor seating area was plentiful and comfortable. The service was very good and attentive to our needs. We will definitely be back.
