Cafe Canela: Build a Burger or Order Tex Mex, It's Up to You


Cafe Canela (9070 Research Blvd. Ste 303) replaces the former Geaux Burger, formerly Mooyah Burger.  When I learned Mooyah closed, I was devastated!  But later, because of ACS's 7 Best Burgers of Central Texas Tour, I learned Cafe Canela is the same place but with a little extra on the menu.

Owner Alvaro Valencia managed Mooyah and Geaux.  But this time, he's doing things the way he wants because he owns and manages Cafe Canela.  Valencia put Tex Mex options on the menu, so customers aren't limited to just burgers or hot dogs.  But we highly recommend getting a burger and loading it up with toppings, which come free!

Some burger joints offer the plain Jane burgers; others do theirs up a little more gourmet style.  At Cafe Canela, you'll order a simple burger.  You have the option of dressing it up how you like, but it doesn't come to the table overloaded.  The burger is juicy and the bun is outstanding.  Valencia told us he orders the bread from Sweetish Hill Bakery.

This concludes the ACS burger tour.  Which burger joint on our list is your favorite?  Tell us what we didn't try that you highly recommend.
