Matta's Burger Place

Quaint off-highway stop near the local Post Office. I was looking for a quick, local bite when driving between El Paso and San Antonio.

The burger was a bit too well done for my tastes, but it was seasoned well. The bun was delicious and the jalapenos were great. The highlight was the tots. Perfectly crispy and they automatically gave me salt and pepper even though I forgot to explicitly ask.

It took about 20 minutes in total to get off the highway, find the place, park, order, get the food, and be back on the highway. Overall would definitely try again. I'm interested in their chili dog. $13 for burger and tots, no drink.

This place came highly recommended. It was worth the stop. Great burgers and fries.

Wonderful local place to stop to or from Balmorhea SP. We tried green chili burger, chicken sandwich and dbl bacon cheeseburger. Everyone loved theirs but the chicken was a favorite! Tots were excellent, the only complaint we had was the curly fries had no salt or seasoning.
Super friendly service and a great shaded porch to eat on that was dog friendly 🐾
We all wanted to try the sno-cones but we're so stuffed!

Excellent! People looking for a great meal en route between San Antonio and El Paso... or on your way to/from Big Bend National Park... this place is a must stop! Great place for a good, hot meal and cold drinks! Burger joint-style crunchy fries, juicy burger. Outdoor sitting area. Gas station / convenience store across the road. Located at the foothills of the west Texas mountains, not far from Interstate 10. (The mountains are not high in elevation like other places, but hey!, they still count.) Enjoy at the lake nearby! (Should've filmed spaghetti westerns here, ya know.)
