Located just a short trip from Elan East, El Sapo Botanas y Burgers is a garage-turned-Tex-Mex burger place. Once the home of a gas station and auto shop, this Austin eatery serves some of the best burgers around, according to guests. Aside from the regular beef patties, the menu features fish, shrimp, chicken, lamb, and pork burgers.
There’s much more on the menu at this restaurant, which is a part of the Carlos Rivero’s El Chile Restaurant Group. Once you're settled in, take a look at the impressive drink selection. The folks behind the bar serve Texas wines — (these pair well with the burgers) — ciders, Texas craft brews, and signature cocktails with a kick.
You can start your meal with chips and guacamole, salsas, and chile con queso. When it's time for the main course, one popular choice is the hearty Angus beef burgers or a super-sized all-beef hot dog. Don't forget to load your dog with chile con carne, pico de gallo, Mexican cheese, fire-roasted jalapenos, and guacamole for extra flavor. For dessert, you can even enjoy a milkshake or an ice cream sundae!
