LSA Burger

LSA Grandscape is a big restaurant that oozes a relaxed vibe. It's a two-story affair; on the main floor, tables are spread comfortably apart, and a large bar dominates the back wall of windows, which will open up in nicer weather to a sprawling patio. One thing you won't see are TVs hanging over the bar or tucked into every corner. LSA wants to be a family restaurant with a focus on the food, without falling into the sports bar abyss. Start with the brisket queso, which enthralled us with its yellow gooey cheesiness. Plenty of brisket and a sweet barbecue sauce bump up the wow factor for your tastebuds, and warm tortilla chips admirably hold their crunch under each scoop of queso. Burgers are still the highlight at LSA, for good reason. The Bigfoot (yes, it's a Texas town) features a perfectly medium-cooked 44 Farms beef patty blanketed with Havarti cheese and LSA's "snake venom" pepper sauce, with lettuce, tomato, mayo and avocado to cool some of the peppery heat. It's a two-handed messy affair and everything you want your burger to be.
