Clutch City Grill
Included In
Parked on the patio of Spring Street Bar in the First Ward is Clutch City Grill, a small-but-mighty food truck that mostly serves tacos, but with a few tricks up its sleeve. There are three taco options, including a carne asada, a pollo asado, and a vegan. But the real stunner is the Clutch Burger, in which two huge, tender brisket and chuck patties are stacked on top of each other and melted together with two layers of cheese. You do have to unhinge your jaw a little to take a bite of this behemoth, but the pillowy buns provide ample comfort. Importantly, the burger can also get turned into a chopped cheese, where the burger meat gets minced with hot peppers and sweet caramelized onions, filling any empty space with a mountain of melted cheese. And after a few rounds of drinks at the bar, we can’t think of a better place to be than parked than on a picnic bench in front of Clutch City, chopped cheese in hand. And maybe a taco platter, too.
