Fodor's Expert Review Chris Madrid's
A San Antonio burger institution since 1977, Chris Madrid's is synonymous with burgers. The six varieties of hamburger—which locals and tourists alike consider among the best anywhere—come in two sizes: the regular quarter-pound and the Macho half-pound. The varieties include fan-favorite Cheddar Cheezy, the house-specialty tostada burger, and the flaming jalapeño cheddar burger. The only other items on the menu are grilled chicken sandwiches, homemade hand-cut fries, nachos, chalupas (open-face tacos), and a kids' meal (10 and under) of grilled cheese or cheeseburger, served with fries and fountain drink. It all makes for a fun, family-friendly meal out.
