Chris Madrids

This burger joint first opened in 1977 when the owner, Chris Madrid, graduated from the University of Texas in Austin.  In the beginning the restaurant offered both tacos and burgers. But soon after the burgers became such a sensation that tacos were removed from the menu. Even through the years the restaurant is still family owned and in its original location on Blanco and Hollywood, about 5 minutes away from campus.  There are two sizes of burgers with six different varieties of the burgers. When I ate there I had the regular sized burger, which is still a significant amount of food, and I also got french fries on the side, which I highly recommend as they are a nice side to the already delicious hamburger.  And from the year 2000 to 2007, Chris Madrids had won the best burger award.  And the best part about it is that the burgers range from 4 to about 6 dollars in price, so its not busting anybodys wallet if you chose to dine at Chris Madrids.  An The layout of Chris Madrids is also very well planned with a large and spacious inside dining room and also for larger parties there is an outside dining area with plenty of fans for those hot summer days when you want to enjoy a nice burgers.
