Armenta family keeps old fashioned burgers thriving in Odessa
Gilbert Armenta bought the business with son and daughter joining, turning it into a family affair. They updated the building with paint and a mural while planning new machines and tile. The menu remains unchanged and customers from 35 years plus new patrons keep returning for classic burgers and fries. Regulars praise flavor and freshness, while younger shoppers enjoy the drive in atmosphere. The drive in offers order at window service, outdoor seating, and a drive through as they plan to expand without changing the core recipe.
