I wish San Marcos was just a few minutes closer just so Spud Ranch would be closer (also so Hanna and I could see our friend Chelsea more often)!! It is a tiny little place, but well worth the drive from Austin.
Spud Ranch is a great concept, fast food restaurant. Picture this: specialty baked potatoes. They have 27 different varieties with different toppings, but you can also choose your own custom toppings. You can get a Cajun Spud, Chicken Enchilada Spud, Philly Cheesesteak Spud, Hot Wing Spud (#1 most popular), Chicken Brocolli Spud, or even Teriyaki Spud. The list keeps going. Each one sounds absolutely mouthwatering too. They also have burgers, sandwiches, fried brocolli, fried okra, fried pickles, jalapeno poppers, fried mushrooms, etc...
I had the Cajun Spud on my first visit. It has andouille sausage, bell peppers, sauteed onions, cheese, and lots of Louisiana hot sauce. Oh my gosh! That thing was of the charts. It was sooooo good. The flavors all blend together to satisfy that cajun craving combined with a desire for a baked potato.
Since it is semi-fast food, you pretty much know the service will be hands-off after paying at the register. However, the lady at the register was really nice while we were there. The atmosphere seemed pretty laid back, but all of the workers made it appear like they were doing their jobs. The decor was a combination of interesting and Texas-quaint. Simple and nothing terribly fancy.
Prices: You definitely seem to get your money's worth.
Would you recommend this place to others? Absolutely! Go, go, go!
Thomas' Ranking: 10 out of 10 -- great fast food, great price, great flavor, great idea!
