If you're craving one of the best burgers in Texas, a Mexican restaurant probably wouldn't be your first-choice restaurant - but it should be, at least with regard to Mendez Cafe in San Angelo. This tiny eatery dishes out a mean cheeseburger, kicked up a notch with the addition of grilled jalapenos and onions. You'll be hooked after the first bite!
Mendez Cafe proclaims itself to have the best Mexican food in San Angelo - but one of its most iconic menu items couldn't be more American.
Before we get into the food, let's set the scene a bit. The atmosphere is colorful, warm, and inviting, and you'll be in a good mood before you even start perusing the selections.
When it does come time to order, you'll have quite the delicious dilemma on your hands.
Mexican classics such as fajitas, enchiladas, tacos, and more make up the bulk of the menu...
...but just as many people frequent Mendez Cafe for the burgers. The classic cheeseburger holds its own, with just the right amount of seasoning and a perfectly toasted bun.
If you're looking to spice things up a bit (literally), go with the "Super Fiesta" burger, topped with grilled jalapenos, onions, and tomatoes - or make it your own by adding delicious toppings such as avocado and bacon.
You'll also see other American favorites, such as catfish and chicken-fried steak, on the menu. Whether your cravings are leaning toward domestic or south of the border, this is the place to go.
