After a long day, there's nothing better than biting into a thick, juicy burger and crispy fries. If that sounds good to you, these restaurants near our Houston apartments offer this delicious duo for convenient takeout.

Bubba's Texas Burger Shack

Known as "the place under the freeway," Bubba's Texas Burger Shack has served the city's tastiest burgers since 1985. Family-owned, Richard purchased the restaurant when he learned it was about the close. Bubba's was the first in Houston to offer Bison burgers, and today it's run by Richard's daughters, who carry on his tradition of providing generous portions at reasonable prices. Sample the Frito pie burger. Grilled to perfection, it features chili, cheese, Fritos, and jalapenos.

Burger Joint

At the Burger Joint, the chefs offer a fusion of flavors you won't find anywhere else. They prepare everything from scratch, including the mayo and patties made from Angus beef. Try the classic burger. Claimed to be one of the "fifty best burgers in Texas," it comes with lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, chopped onions, and a hint of aioli. Pair it with the alcoholic Rocket Fuel shake and chili queso fries for an unforgettable meal.

Craft Burger

At Craft Burger, Shannen Tune offers a gourmet menu made from the finest, freshest ingredients. He won Chopped in 2015, and honed his skills in the kitchens of the country's most luxurious hotels. For dinner, try the Morning After burger. Featured on the Food Network, it's piled high with smoked gouda, lettuce, tomato, brown sugar & chili-rubbed bacon, and a bacon-cheddar waffle.
