The Outrigger Grill
Crystal Beach, Texas
The Outrigger Grill, located in Crystal Beach, Texas, is just
up the road from the
Bolivar Ferry on Texas 87. Its a good place to eat and its a
fun place to eat. The decor is "Texas" with humor. Lots
of funny signs to read while you wait for your food.
This is not fast food, its food cook just for you. I didn't spot one warming lamp or microwave in the place. No wimpy fountain Dr Peppers here, you get the whole can. ...and you'll need it if you order what I ordered.
I am a burger man. I ordered the Jalapeņo Cheese Burger, we split an order of Freedom Fries. (There was plenty).
Now we all know that the trick to serving a good cheese burger is not just the 100% U.S. ground beef, nor is the sliced Jalapeņos and diced onions. It's the "presentation".
That burger topped with an orange sliced just begged "eat me", but first it begged, take my picture. So I did both.
Cost for two? ( we ordered the same thing and had more than one can of Dr Pepper each.) About $16.00 including the tip.
Update:
After being virtually destroyed by Hurricane Ike, it is reported that
the Outrigger Grill is BACK! (9/2009)
