If you're heading west into Austin coming from Elgin, you'll spot a large Shell station just before you get to all those stoplights in Manor. Inside you'll spot three restaurants and a coffee bar. One of them is this burger place. It should be noted, they also have another location like this on East MLK near the tollway. There's lots of seating inside and each order takes about 5-10 minutes to prepare.
What sets this burger place apart from their competitors is their use of roasted Hatch green chilies and their "Magic" sauce. You can also add jalapeños for free and bacon for just a dollar more. If you get the combo, you can upgrade to a shake for just two dollars more.
Let's start with the star of the show which is the burger. I got the double cheese with bacon and I have to admit it met all my expectations. The bun is not your typical white bread, I was told it's called a "euro bun". The roasted chilies added just a subtle note of heat. As for the chocolate shake, it was pretty similar to what you'd get at In-N-Out Burger and the previously frozen fries were fairly average, not home cut. As far as burgers go, I would definitely add this place to your "go to" list for good and unique burgers that deliver for the money.
Another unique aspect of this operation, is that they do serve frozen daiquiris in case you need an alcoholic kick. Eight photos included for more insight. read more
