An in-Fusion of delicious hamburgers

Sunday, December 24, 2023 — An in-Fusion of delicious hamburgersTonight we revisited another 2023 favorite: Fusion Grill on Mason Road in Katy. Fusion’s staked a claim among Katyites (Katyians?) as one of the best burger spots around, and I’d go as far as putting it up against my faves in all of Houston. It’s neck-and-neck with Old School Burger for best in Katy (though for me Old School has the slight edge for the top spot).

My go-to at Fusion—which almost has too many burger options to choose from—is the Asadero Burger, pictured here. My photo doesn’t do the meat itself justice—as you can see the bun is huge and the toppings plentiful to the point where the patty is pretty much entirely obscured—but it’s an exceptional Angus patty.

This is no smashburger—thick and plentiful to the point where two patties would be excessive, and that’s saying something coming from someone who feels a double burger should be mandatory at all times.

The asadero cheese combined with roasted jalapeño and jalapeño ranch sauce give it a jolt of spiciness for those of us the love an extra kick in your burgers, and the oversized bun makes for the ideal delivery vehicle.

In addition to the burgers, the parmesan truffle fries are also outstanding as is the fried calamari. Probably Katy’s best overall restaurant (non-Pearl-and-Vine division). Just make sure you come hungry 👌
