Chris Madrids

Always a must visit when in San Antonio! My wife and I are from out of town and love making it to Chris Madrid's when we can. The tostada burger with refried beans, chips, and cheddar cheese is just the best! My wife gets the cheddar cheezey, which is a burger with cheddar, lettuce, tomato, mustard, etc. The fries are amazing!! Great food as always!!

Updated October 2023: revisited this restaurant early afternoon on 'eclipse' Saturday. It was packed as was the patio area which also featured a musician playing a guitar. Although the ordering line was long you could tell that efficiency was at work with two employees taking your order. The system also tracks your food in the preparation mode and for table delivery. They also have takeout which was busy. There were several employees cleaning tables and delivering food. The men's restroom was okay which was great considering the packed crowd. We ordered a macho cheddar cheese hamburger, regular fries and a grilled chicken sandwich with Jack cheese ; water to drink. We had to wait a few more minutes than normal, not only because of the crowd but because of the chicken sandwich. However this is noted by ordertaker and a sign on the menu. The food arrived warm. A large piece of chicken was noted and was tasty and moist, the hamburger was great as were the large amount of french fries. See photos. We spent about an hour there and our bill was just over $27. This is a great place to have your hamburger fix, people watch or just enjoy the outdoor music when available. I have no problem in recommending this place for great food and ambience. Visited this restaurant midweek after 2:00 in the afternoon. It was fairly busy, first time for a visit since the remodel. They have an enormous outside covered seating area along with a large space for inside casual seating . The restaurant was clean with lotsa help everywhere. We ordered the large macho hamburger half pounder with cheese ($11.50) and a chicken burger ($7.75) with a small order of french fries. ($2.25) See menu photo for additional pricing. Both were amazingly moist and tasty. This has to be one of the best hamburger and hamburger places in San Antonio and I highly recommend it.

Wanted a burger for lunch. I suggested Chris Madrid's. Hadn't really been there since it changed ownership and then the fire. The burger was great. I had the Flaming Jalapeño Cheddar burger. Had the perfect kick to it. It was spicy, but it wasn't where I couldn't enjoy it. A coworker had the Taco Salad (why if you're at a burger place 🤷🏽 but to each his own. Look good also. It is a great time of year to order and eat outside since the weather is starting to cool down. Also good to have a cold beverage.
