Keller's: Dallas TX


The IGT team took advantage of their amazing multi-tasking skills by mixing blogging pleasure with work travels. This week took us to Dallas, TX where some quick googling and a friendly recommendation (thanks to loyal reader Grant for the tip) led us to the famous Keller's Drive-In burger joint. The key statistics and ever-important pictures:

Travel time from hotel: 105 minutes (GPS failure)
Restaurants that specialize in coffee, tacos and muffins: 1
Number of potential homeless that directions were sought from: 1
Times referred to as "Yankees:" 3
Number of tater tots consumed: 67
GQ rank of national burger joints: 10
Travel time back to hotel: 17 minutes

Overall, the burger was good. Number 10 nationally may be a stretch, but the atmosphere, lovely waitresses, and drive-in niche definitely elevated it in our minds. Their specialty is the "No. 5" which is a double cheeseburger topped with thousand island dressing and freshly grilled onions. Overall, a very good, juicy burger with delicious tater tots that proves Texans know more than just their steaks, football and 10-gallon hats.
