This is a nice establishment that serves great food. The burgers are juicy, flavorful, and huge. The chicken and waffles cannot be beat. They give you so much food for a great price. I definitely recommend.

Delicious monster sized homemade bacon cheeseburger and tater tots. Everything was seasoned too perfection. Will definitely be back.

I have been living in Houston for 12 years and never heard of this spot until my coworker told me about them. Why she did that but it was well worth it. The burgers are so good. This my second time and will not be my last. I’m am a huge burger lover and these burger are one point. The portion size for the fries are just right as well not to many but not less. The seasoning is just right as well. I will most definitely will be coming back. The service was great as well for both times that I have visited.

Doesn't matter if you are near or far. You must try Sparkle. Sparkle is not a fancy restaurant so don't go expecting glitz and glam. Lol. Sparkle's is your laid back hole in the wall burger joint. They of course keep it clean and the lights low. Just how I like to enjoy a meal. There is places to eat inside or you are more than welcome to get your food to go but good luck on that to go option. One sniff of that container you're going to be upset you didn't stay to eat. It is counter service. You place your order and then your food is made. So do not go rushing. They make each order once it is placed. Of course you can call ahead and hope it's ready or close to ready when you get there but do not rush perfection. Now to the food! The food! The food! The burger is really hard to get down. And not because it tastes bad, but because it's a mega all beef never frozen burger patty. Yes you read that correctly. If you're feeling really risky, like my child, order the double meat and see if you can finish it. He got down to two bites and had to call it quits. And that was after forcing more than five bites over his limit. Fries are actually fresh cut Idaho potatoes. I think they are Idaho. Heck I'm not sure. Just order them. Seriously! They do have daiquiris. I sadly did not get one so can not speak on how good they are but they definitely looked good. Give Sparkle's a visit. You will not be sorry!

I enjoyed Sparkles burgers. I got a breakfast tacos and my daughter had a burger. She enjoys a good burger and Sparkles definitely delivers on a great burger. The burger was thick and juicy and it had all the toppings. My taco was full of flavor from the meat and cheese. They also served hand cut fresh fries and homemade cake. Great spot for a late night or early morning and everything in between meal.

We went on a Saturday night so traffic is crazy. But if you're careful you can find a spot and will be glad you did because walking in you smell great food! We were welcomed & I got complimented on my shirt (Young Dolph) so I knew I was in the right place. Lol Back to the food I ordered a double bacon cheeseburger & some chili cheese fries. We waited for a little over 30 minutes BUUUUUT let me tell you ITS WORTH EVERY SECOND!! What you will have is a huge patty with fresh veggies and a soft toasted bun. The patties were seared to my loving (not liking but LOVING) you remember how our parents cooked a big burger at home when we wanted McDonalds? THATS THIS KIND OF BURGER! A nostalgia for me! Mainly because with every bite of my food I can taste the love that was put in it. Hospitality was off the charts. The atmosphere is a vibe and the customer service was great! Will be back again....shes gonna get tired of seeing me cause I think I found my new burger spot!!!💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💐Hate off to the young Queen working behind the register tonight and the chef

The food was homemade, seasoned, and fresh!! This restaurant is a 10/10. We enjoyed everything. We had strawberry cake, bacon cheeseburger, double swiss cheeseburger, fries and tots, red kool-aid and a mixed north and south side daiquiri.

The food and service were GREAT, but it was very small inside. We've stayed and ate, but it's very tight. I had the loaded shrimp potato and it was SO good! I only wish they used bigger potatoes. I will be back!!

The double meat is huge!!! And those buns are toasted real good! The burger is beyond words! Thats how good it is! The fries are real potato fries! They are delicious and sooo fresh! This will definitely be a regular spot for our family!!

The turkey burger…I used to order it every Friday when I was pregnant. Now, those same Boys and I eat here at least twice a month, in between after school activities (when sports goes until 9pm or I don’t feel like cooking). I would argue this is one of the best places for food in 77004 (convenient hours, quality of food). One of the few places in the area I can take children to eat that isn’t a bar—and the turkey burger is GOODT! I’m a create of habit, so I haven’t order anything else, but you can put money on the turkey burger. ☺️ *pro tip: takes ~20 minutes, so call in the order and pick up.

This place serves a lot of different foods from baked potatoes, breakfast tacos, chicken wings but that darn grilled chicken sandwich and real fries made from potatoes be hitting for real. It's my absolute go to on the menu. They serve breakfast in the morning and lunch and dinner options remainder of the day. Not pricey at all but the food I promise is worth it. I come here so much when I'm at work that they know me by name when I call in a order or go get it myself lol. It's terrible lol. From what I was told sparkles mom makes the cake slices here and when I say they are moist and when eatten with blue bell ice cream, my goodness you coming back for more and that's a promise. That strawberry is my favorite. Don't take my word go and get one. They also serve what I call hood kool-laid. Grape, Strawberry and Lemonade. Delicious, I like to mix different flavors trust it won't disappoint. The daiquiris are strong. It's a Northside and a Southside and their served in light bulbs. Not actually bulbs but something different. The reason I'll give them a 4/5 is because parking is semi bad and sometimes the orders take a lil to long to be made at times. Other then that this is wonderful establishment to try if your in the area.

Had the hamburger and baked potato just because I couldn’t choose, definitely their own meal. But the burger was insane, huge but not over the top, exactly what you need + fries would be settled. Daiquiri was fire, had a mix of Northside/Southside, definitely a crazy mix. My only thing is the shrimp was bangin, but this a personal preference of having the tails of so you can enjoy the whole shrimp flavor without the need to undo a tail, but that’s just me probably lol.

Headed here with some coworkers since I heard a lot of things about this place. The food did NOT disappoint. I had a bacon cheeseburger, fries and strawberry cake. It was very filling and affordable. Small little shop. Had a nice setup and small. Only issue with the atmosphere was it was very hot in there. Feels like it didn’t have any AC. The guy who helped us was very nice. Everything was fresh and ready to order. Only had to wait for about 10-15 mins. Everything was good. Definitely will be back!

I had a taste for a big juicy homemade burger, that’s what I receive. I didn’t know the double meat meant two burgers, it was huge. It taste good seasoned really well I think the price is reasonable and affordable. I got the home fries they were good next time I’ll try the onion rings. The customer service was good, I got my order to go so I didn’t get to experience the crowd. I love that grape kool aid it was perfect. I recommend sparkle burger to everyone I think it’s good and affordable for the family and the only reason I gave this place 4 stars is because I don’t like the area for parking unless I didn’t see the proper parking lot, I don’t know but that was the only thing.

I came here because someone suggested I'd like it. It seems to be a family owned establishment. I was advised to call prior to going due to the wait being long; but they didn't answer. When I arrived there were a couple of people in front of me and a few sitting... waiting for their orders. The young man seemed knowledgeable. However, I didn't get what I ordered. To make a long story short, after placing my order, I decided to call the number online to see if it was correct and it was. They just wasn't answering the phone. My food was fresh but a bit salty. I'll advise you to check your order before leaving because there were some items missing and I had to bring it to their attention. Their service was a "C" and honestly I won't return. They need to do better when it comes to taste.

Well I patronized sparkles when they were on Hirsch Road and the burgers were big. The food was great then all of a sudden the burgers got smaller and the prices went up up. I went in one day to order me some food and this time had to be the time when Donald Trump was coming into office his first term. well, at that time, she had her brother working there. He was so disrespectful. We was watching the TV where Donald Trump was coming to Houston and me and some old customers was talking about it and her brother told me that if I like him so much, I need to go be with him. Me and her brother got into a small argument and he told me I didn’t have to come in there anymore they didn’t need my money so from that time on, I never went into sparkles again. I will never patronize her anymore. That’s on My Momma!

Incompetence. I called to place an order. I was asked to hold. That’s fine. Waited 10 minutes. No one came back to the phone. I could hear everything in the background. I wasn’t placed on a real hold. I walk over from where I was placed my order and voiced my concerns and was told we are extremely busy and the phone orders weren’t priority. That’s fine. Just pick the phone back up and say we can’t take a phone order at the moment. No big deal. I get it, but to leave me waiting isn’t ok. Poor customer service and poor delivery of why you couldn’t take my order. No accountability and no apology for delay of service.

I went to the establishment and spent about 120 for a family size meal with several plates however I would never go back on my life!!!!! The food was disgusting and was halfway cooked , yall used to be good. I called to let them know about my food but the lady just hung up on me .

Came here once my food was good, came back I brought my friend along to try it as well. As my friend was eating her fries it was a piece of hair fried into the French fry she continued to eat her wings thinking it was just a small mistake..I get on the last bite of my burger & it’s a HUGE LONG piece of hair in my patty I was so grossed out! I took the food inside to show the hair they saw the hair & said “what would joy like for me to do remake it” “I can’t give refunds cause the owner is not here” I try to support black business but the customer service is poor!! Someone should be there to make executive decisions for when things like this happen. I would have never written this review had this situation been handled better.

Let’s start off with good news. I had a cheeseburger with fries, & it was good.!!! The older lady working the register has a bad attitude , she hates her job and people (seriously )!!! They had a sign and chair propped against the bathroom , “Saying out of Service”!!! Please don’t re/open until we can use the restroom . They need to take that vending machine out of the back and really add love to this place !!! This is my first time eating there& most likely my last !!! The lady who took our order was so mean, I was scared to eat my food .. However; my friend did tell her nicely , so Sparkle need to go back to the drawing board, hire nice friendly people , fix that restroom !!! Ooohhh and yeah while we were in there eating they put 5 Warning signs on her windows threatning tows 😳😳😳😳😳‼️‼️‼️‼️

We gave this a try because of the good reviews. It was a waisted money. The cervice was terrible. The big lady took my order and I had to repeat my order four times and still wasn't right. The burgers didn't have any flavor the bread was wet. Save your money and go somewhere else.

Paris

Just spent $46.03 on food you cannot eat at all. All $46.03 truly a waste. The bun on the burgers is so wet and soggy it can’t even be held without turning mushy. We got 2 burgers the same and both not edible The bacon cheese fries were $8.50 and either the cheese or the sour cream is soured. You can smell the vinegary soured smell when you open it: the taste even worse. The entire 2 burger meals with fries & the bacon cheese fries went to waste. The koolaid is ok. Very sweet, but expected.
