Blake’s Lotaburger

Pretty good burger for a fast food place. The green chile is what makes it!!! It’s so spicy and delicious. It’s just perfect. The seasoned fries are good, not really «seasoned» but still good. And the regular fries are just as good.
It is kinda weird that you have to get ice from them though. Paid just $ 20 for three meals. Better than many places !

Reasonable prices, great portions, great taste, overall great experience. I ordered that Blake burger with double beef double cheese bacon green chili and jalapeño they got my order right except they forgot the bacon. I informed the manager and she was more than willing to fix the issue. She prepared a new burger the way I ordered it originally and threw in a small milkshake for the trouble. Needless to say we were more than satisfied and will certainly return again.

We went here a couple of days ago for lunch. Awesome burger, You get a burger fries and a drink for five dollars and some change. We live in Washington state, up there you pay 13 dollars and some change. If you guys opened stores up there you would make a killing.

I really didn’t like the hamburgers and the people weren’t as happy to be working there.

Delicious real food! Very friendly staff. My 6 year old said a lot of people here are really nice.

Terrible they got every order wrong and I spent $ 40 for 2 adults and 2 kids. It took so long to get our food we didn’t want to send it back. Friendly staff but bad food.,

Cravings get smashed when I want (and get) the Blake’s Green chile cheeseburger. So glad you came to the Far Eastside of El Paso, TX. The meat is delicious and juicy. The green chile gives it just the right kick! I’ve had the shakes too… strawberry and blackberry. DELISH! Noticed that sonic also put a green chile cheeseburger on the menu but it wasn’t as good. I’d stick to Blake’s on this one.

Service sux…12 peeps wurkn and I hafta wait to get ice? Kids textn behind counter and NOT ONE offers to help out? Then they mess up my order. How hard is it to make a burger to order?!! Then no ketchup? Waazzaap with dat? Computers and all, and PEOPLE still cant follow directions… GROWWL! Burger was good, fries were cold!

I ordered seasoned fries and a green chile cheese burger with bacon. My husband ordered a double lotta burger with cheese and seasoned fries. WE BOTH LOVED AND DEVOURED THEM. Awesome place. Will be back!

For a fast food burger I enjoyed this place better than most other fast places. We had six people and everyone was satisfied. They went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with our experience. My father in law had ordered onion rings and got fries. He did not make a big fuss but just politely mentioned it. so they let him keep the fries and also brought out the order of onion rings as well as a brownie for him. Clarissa (I believe she is the manager) came to our table and was very nice and asked for feedback on our experience. Over all the people were nice, the service was quick, and the food was better than average fast food.

This is all you need to know about blake’s: green chile cheeseburger — if you want anything else, you’re at the wrong place. This burger, with authentic Hatch chile, puts Whataburger to shame.

If I could give it NO STARS I would. The chicken sandwich was terrible and dry. Had no flavor and a half a&& dab of mayonnaise. The sorry piece of meat they tried to pass off as chicken was probably the size of a silver dollar and got stuck in my throat from being so dry. The fries were mediocre. I’ve had better fries that I found in my car after a few weeks. The best part of this place was leaving… oh and the ice.

This place gets three stars since we can not make a review a half. Yesterday my boyfriend and I decided that we would divulge in a cheese burger. As Unilocal elite I hate to admit that this place was chosen more so on location than facts:(my BF got the green chilli burger. I had a bite of his burger it was delish and I was pissed that I didn’t get that one. My cheeses burger tasted like some school cafeteria dinning. It was gross:(I don’t even finish the whole thing. The flash frozen French fries once fried and perhaps twice removed were a diss appointment as well. I fact I am only giving three start because the green chilli burger was ok. A disappointing cheat meAl:(

Aside from receiving the wrong order I was given a nasty cold burger and horrible customer service. Considering they take long the least they can do is give you a warm burger, this definitely was not freshly made. So sad.

I am a huge fan of Blake’s Lot A Burger. I’m so glad they made it to El Paso. I just wish the service was a little faster. I guess since it is new everyone is here and they are short staffed.
Great food!

Lotaburger, why you gotaburger keep making Lotaburgers a lotasmallerburger?
That’s the language of Lotaburger in case you didn’t know and it roughly translates to: The first El Paso Lotaburger is rather small, why in the world would they make the second just as small? But the design is very fast-​food modern and is spacious enough for the long lines this business attracts.
Anywho, on to the review. Oh, but before I start… I just want to take the time to say that it did not take me five minutes to get to Blake’s from across the street… it was maybe two and I didn’t frantically try to cross… it was more casual and then eventually I just got tired of being a polite driver and even though I just wanted to go straight across (yes, sometimes laziness extends to my driving) I hauled ass to the light and made a U-​turn in my boat.
To the review! Still in it’s first month open and you know what they say about us El Pasoans and shiny, new things. The line wasn’t too terribly long, but then again it wasn’t really lunch-​time per se so taking that into account it was pretty long for the hour. I’ll put it this way, Adam G. could’ve ordered in the «five minutes» it took for me to get across Edgemere. And that statement/​observation is a mixture of the validity to my previous driving statement and how truly fast these employees work. Well that and the fact that they have a ridiculous amount of people working.
The #1. It’s what you do. And I didn’t really listen to what the cashier was saying when she rattled off all the options so I just said, «All of the above.» She didn’t really understand what that meant so I said it again as though it would make things clearer… I assume I got all of the above. You always do seasoned fries. Always! I never noticed the whole ice setup at the other one (and I haven’t confirmed that it’s actually done that way at the other one), but I don’t like it. I don’t like it at all. What if I didn’t want ice? What if I wanted to know exactly how many cubes were being put in my cup? What if I wanted easy ice? What if I wanted ice to the brim? What if I’m getting a refill and I need more ice? Can I have more ice or do I have to pay for a new cup? All of this is so confusing… I kid, I kid. I didn’t get a refill on ice, but I assume I could just ask them for it and they would oblige. But people were dropping those cups left and right. My booted foot may have even been hit with a mop while I was ordering because of all the ice on the floor.
Of course all of the seats were taken and since it had been raining on and off for about a week I wasn’t about to risk sitting outside and becoming drenched in the matter of seconds, but we were lucky enough to be able to snag two bar stools adjacent to the kitchen, behind the soda machine. Even though this is a small building, I didn’t feel overwhelmed by the crowd… although I was tempted to redirect a small wandering child that was hoovering around me.
After our food arrived I bit into a spicy, cheesy, bacon-​y burger and I enjoyed it for the most part. I love a juicy, greasy burger, but these were a little heavy on the grease… like to the point where it was all a genuine hot mess and made it impossible to stay clean while eating. This would be perfect after a night out! The seasoned fries are really all I need in life though and even though I had literally just ate a butt load of fries before getting here, I had to finish these fries! They’re just that damn good!
If you haven’t read my review for the other EP Blake’s just know I’m in love with the staff there so hard (and no, I don’t know any of them personally)…specifically Jose who was the most charming and friendly staff member I’ve ever seen in a chain. They need Jose at this one. Don’t get me wrong, everyone was nice, but no one was really standout, spectacular. There was one guy (I’m pretty sure this is his very first job) that was supposed to be taking tables their food, but was calling numbers out a little above a whisper and kind of blamed us for the fact that we didn’t get out food immediately (we never even complained about a wait so that was kinda out of the left field)…I just want to know, if I’m supposed to be listening for a whispering kid softly speaking numbers, why the hell do they give us those stands with numbers? Another employee came by to make sure everything was right and let me know about a weekly giveaway Blake’s does on Facebook (basically just post a picture of a Blake’s burger and cross your fingers).
And we Texans are going to continue to compare Blake’s to Whataburger and really I’m gonna put them on the same level, but Blake’s still doesn’t do one thing I love that Whataburger does. No not Spicy Ketchup, but I suppose Blake’s doesn’t do that either. 24 hours! Can we get a 24 hour Blake’s? You know we’re good for it. We promise to come by at 3 am to order a #1 all the time!

Honestly, I’m not a fan of fast food burgers, and avoid even Whataburger.
The burger was fine. Not spectacular, but decent. I’d caution you before adding the green chile; it’s actually got a spicy kick to it. I know the restaurant can’t control it, and while I enjoy spicy, it was slightly too spicy to enjoy.
One observation and tip: the soda fountain area has no ice machine. Ask one of the very friendly workers for more ice if you need some.
Stop by if you like burgers. If you’re like me, and figure you’ll pass, is say you give it at least a shot.

El Paso’s newest honeymoon just opened! And well, it seemed like all of El Paso decided to come check it out at the same time. Okay I’m just as guilty as the next person, I had to go and check it out.
For starters Blake’s is located in probably the poorest designed neighborhood in EP’s booming east side. Anyone who has to put up with that traffic on Edgemere deserves an award. I pulled in to the new shopping center and waited for my lovely friend Freckles to join me. I got a good laugh as she frantically tried to cross Edgemere in her car. It only took five minutes to do so.
We got in and the line was long, but that was to be expected. It wasn’t long before we were next in line, service was moving rather smoothly. The customer in front of us spilled the ice out of her cup, I would normally put the blame on her but, without her knowledge the server had already put ice in her cup. This has had to be the biggest head scratcher for anyone going into Blake’s. Is there an Ice Shortage? If you are going to serve me my ice, why not my drink too? The Ice and the soda fountains are not even located in the same place. Why do I have to go to two different places if I want a refill for my drink? Poor design, or Ice Socialism, you decide. By the end of our visit we had noticed more than three customers had dropped their cups because they had no idea they had already received their ice.
We sat down and didn’t wait long before our food had been brought over to us. I had a single Blake’s burger with green chile, and seasoned fries. (Why would anyone get regular fries when you have the option of seasoned?) I think Freckles had a quadruple burger because hers looked big. Or maybe it was just loaded with bacon. Either way the burgers were okay. Not the best or worst burger I have ever had, just Okay.
Will I go out of my way to eat at Blake’s again? I’m not sure I would. But that’s just me. I think this Blake’s honeymoon is over.

As a long time El Pasoan I would always here about Blake’s. Even after living in Albuquerque in the late 90s I never attempted to eat one. Finally this location opens about 5 mins away from home. I ordered the 1 combo… cheese and green chili along with chili cheese fries and a Pepsi. The green chili is a good addition however, It doesn’t mask the awful tasting patties. Little to no seasoning. The usual culprit is a frozen patty. Can’t say for sure if they are frozen but patty definitely didn’t taste fresh. Overall really not bad but definitely could be better. Fries where OK… Chili wasn’t anything to brag about. Honestly the highlight for me was the fact they use that awesome crushed iced on their drink that many places stopped using. I will definitely try again… only for it being a quick alternative (and closer) than Whataburger…

Blake’s Lotaburger makes a fantastic Green Chile Burger, it is without a doubt the star of their menu, just don’t expect the Chile to be bland because it is muy caliente, so be advised if you or someone in your party are weak sauce consumers. I also recommend getting the seasoned fries, they’re quite good.
One thing I don’t recommend is dining in during lunch hours, there aren’t many tables to begin with, most of them are for 4 or more people, there’s very few single seats available, the outside benches aren’t really an option during the day since they lack any shade, plus keep in mind that there’s a high school right down the street. Fortunately they have a 2 lane drive-​thru if you are a fellow not lover of crowds.
If you are looking for something a little bit different from your routine fast food burgers, Blake’s Green Chile Burger is a nice change of pace.
