There is a little hole in the wall in Edna called AJ’s. Great burgers and typical lunch stuff. Damn good burger.

Greek brothers in el Campo, or palacios Mexican restaurant in palacios, solid fried shrimp. Could also grab a couple of banh mi sandwiches from the point in palacios. That's where Anthony bourdain went when he was here. probably not the most direct route but I'm headed to Cape caranchua this weekend and planning on doing some variety of these

100% chance that place is owned by a 'tran'

If Victoria ends up being your lunch stop and you want BBQ,  I would recommend  Mumphords

The Pump House in Victoria is pretty good too

RIP Texas Drive Inn in Victoria. Now I just hit the Chicken Express in El Campo for my gizzards.

Hit Moo-Moo’s by the river / bridge (about 5 mins past the old Texas Drive Inn). 

Honestly it’s better than Texas Drive Inn. Damn good fried chicken
