Smashburgers, fries, and milkshakes from Chef Chris Shepherd
"Hosted in the Houston Farmers Market, this Underbelly Hospitality restaurant offers solid burger options, including its 44 Farms Angus Burger and R-C Ranch wagyu burger, which come with two all-beef patties, American cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, and house sauce. Vegetarians can go for the homemade veggie burger, with a patty that deftly combines black bean, brown rice, and beets, and is topped with avocado, lettuce, and corn relish. Upgrade to a combo for $5 and add the ranch-seasoned potato fries." - Minh Truong, Brittany Britto Garley
"I visited Underbelly Burger as a casual spot at the Houston Famers Market to grab a burger." - Brittany Britto Garley
"Nina Quincy is responsible for tracking the brand’s growth and profitability, and under her leadership, the group is slated to open three concepts, including new outposts of Wild Oats and Underbelly Burger, plus a new Italian-rooted concept called Pastore in Regent Square, neighboring sister-restaurant Georgia James." - Megha McSwain
"As part of the same restaurant group, received a 50-gallon water delivery to use for cooking and drinking and is not serving ice, iced tea, or coffee due to connected water systems; canned soda service continues and ice machines have been shut down as a precaution." - Brittany Britto Garley
"Chef Chris Shepherd has opened a 14-seat, diner-style burger joint at 2520 Airline Drive in the Houston Farmers Market that centers on his double meat, double cheese burger served with lettuce, pickles and tomato on a potato bun—a twist on Shepherd’s Cease and Desist burger from Hay Merchant. The beef is sourced from longtime Underbelly Hospitality supplier 44 Farms and from R-C Ranch’s butcher shop next door at the market. The menu also features milkshakes, a veggie burger, a bacon sausage served like a hot dog, a black pepper buttermilk chicken sandwich modeled on the Hay Merchant version, and “sidewinder” fries dusted in ranch powder. The space mimics a classic diner with green-and-white tile, Shepherd’s vintage burger memorabilia, and a pick-up window for eating outside in the market’s al fresco dining area; it’s open Tuesday through Sunday from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., with pickup or delivery via the website." - Adele Chapin
