What people say, in short
Bubba's Burger Shack is a casual, hole-in-the-wall burger spot, and one diner recommends it for a good burger. One commenter describes it as a single-wide trailer converted into a small restaurant with a patio, sitting under the tollway, and another calls the location sketchy while praising the burgers. One diner says eating a burger and a Shiner at an icehouse under a freeway feels quintessentially Houston, and another notes that a fryer was added for fries, though the burgers remain well liked.
