I have been a Omma's kid since a toddler, best small greasy burger you could ask. Service is fast and you feel like family!

Every town has one of these (if it's civilized, that is) -- a very old fashioned, hole-in-the-wall sort of burger place, where the patties are pattied by hand, cooked right in front of you, constructed as you direct, while aromas of cooking meat and frying potatos fills the air. You can read all the old signs in the place while... More

Oma's is a REAL GEM. Been there forever--and nothing has changed. Great atmosphere. Same employees for decades. It's like walking into a time machine from 1950. The menu is pretty limited to almost exclusively burgers, chips, and drink, but that's the beauty of this place. They do one thing, and they do it well. The burgers are made from very... More

Oma's is a very popular burger place in Waxahachie. The burgers are served in a paper wrapper. They are small, but delicious.

I understand that many people feel nostalgic about this place, especially if they grew up here, but when I compared the cost with the greasy burgers, I was not impressed. The pool of grease from which the burger patties were removed made the buns very gross. I like hole-in-the-wall places, but there is a point where you have to say,... More

Going to Oma's Jiffy Burger is stepping back in time when customer service was important, community was important, and good food was still a focus in a restaurant. Its the best of all the old bygone era. The place is smallish, there are booths on the right side, a luncheon counter with stools on the left. However, there is a... More
