     Item 1.  Security and Issuer

               The title of the class of equity securities to which this
     Schedule 13D relates is the Units of Limited Partnership Evidenced by
     Depositary Receipts (the "Units") of U.S. Restaurant Properties Master
     L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the "Partnership").  The principal
     executive offices of the Partnership are located at 5310 Harvest Hill Road,
     Suite 270, L.B. 168, Dallas, Texas  75230.

     Item 2.  Identity and Background

               The person filing this statement is QSV Properties Inc., a
     Delaware corporation and Managing General Partner of the Partnership
     ("QSV").   The principal business of QSV is acting as Managing General
     Partner of the Partnership.  The Partnership, through its operating
     affiliate, U.S. Restaurant Properties Operating L.P. (the "Operating
     Partnership"), owns or leases restaurant properties, which it in turn
     leases or subleases primarily to franchisees of Burger King Corporation.

               During the last five years, neither QSV, nor, to the best
     knowledge of QSV, any current QSV executive officer or director, (a) has
     been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or
     similar misdemeanors), or (ii) was a party to a civil proceeding of a
     judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result
     of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order
     enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities
     subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with
     respect to such laws.

               The principal offices of QSV are located at 5310 Harvest Hill 
     Road, Suite 270, L.B. 168, Dallas, Texas 75230. The name, business address,
     principal occupation if other than as an officer of QSV, and citizenship of
     each current QSV executive officer and director are set forth in Appendix I
     hereto.

     Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

               On March 24, 1995, the Partnership granted QSV options (the
     "Options") to purchase 400,000 Units, subject to certain adjustments under
     antidilution provisions of the Options, in connection with the adoption of
     amendments to the agreement of limited partnership of the Partnership, as
     set forth in the Second Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited
     Partnership of the Partnership, dated as of March 17, 1995 (the
     "Partnership Agreement").  The amendments permit the implementation of an
     expanded business plan for the Partnership.  The Options were granted to
     QSV in consideration of QSV's efforts in connection with the approval by
     the limited partners of the Partnership of the Partnership Agreement at a
     special meeting of the limited partners held on March 17, 1995 (the
     "Special Meeting"), and the additional efforts that QSV will expend to
     expand the Partnership's business and opportunities in accordance with its
     new business plan.  No cash consideration was paid for the Options.  The
     granting of the Options was approved by the limited partners of the
     Partnership at the Special Meeting.

               The Options were granted to QSV at an exercise price of $15.50
     per Unit, which represents the average of the closing prices of the
     depositary receipts for the Units on the New 

                                 Page 3 of 13
<PAGE>
 
     York Stock Exchange for the five trading days immediately after the Special
     Meeting. The Options are not transferable except by operation of law, and
     will vest according to their terms on the first anniversary of the granting
     of the Options, subject to earlier vesting and exercisability if QSV is
     removed as a general partner of the Partnership. The Options are only
     exercisable so long as QSV has not voluntarily withdrawn from the
     Partnership or been removed as a general partner, except that the Options
     would remain exercisable for six months after any removal of QSV. The term
     of the Options expire on the tenth anniversary of the date of grant. Under
     certain circumstances set forth in the Partnership Agreement, QSV may
     require the Partnership to register the transfer of Units that it may own,
     including the Units underlying the Options, under applicable securities
     laws.

               If the Options are exercised by QSV, the exercise price would be
     paid from the working capital of QSV, or by other means, including
     borrowings, which are not yet determinable.  QSV has no present plans with
     respect to the exercise of the Options.

     Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction

               QSV, as the Managing General Partner of the Partnership, controls
     the Partnership.    The Options are intended to increase the alignment of
     the interest of QSV with the interest of the limited partners of the
     Partnership as it pursues an expanded business plan that is permitted by
     the amendments contained in the Partnership Agreement.  The expanded
     business plan of the Partnership, which is described in more detail in the
     Proxy Statement of the Partnership dated January 20, 1995, includes making
     loans to tenants of properties owned or leased by the Partnership to
     renovate and improve their restaurants, purchasing additional restaurant
     properties, related equipment and operating rights and financing the
     improvement of existing properties and the purchase of additional
     restaurant properties and related property through borrowings, issuance of
     additional Units and other means.  The Partnership intends to seek to
     purchase restaurant properties of national and regional fast food or casual
     dining restaurant chains, which may include BURGER KING restaurants (BURGER
     KING is a registered trademark and service mark).   The Partnership's
     initial goal is to purchase additional properties principally by utilizing
     the borrowing capacity, on a secured recourse or non-recourse basis, it
     believes is represented by the Partnership's existing properties.
     Purchases might also be made through the issuance of additional Units.

               Except as described above, neither QSV nor, to the best knowledge
     of QSV, any current QSV executive officer or director, has any plans or
     proposals which would result in (a) any acquisition or disposition by any
     person of additional securities of the Partnership or the Operating
     Partnership; (b) any extraordinary transaction, such as a merger,
     reorganization or liquidation, involving the Partnership or the Operating
     Partnership; (c) any sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the
     Partnership or the Operating Partnership; (d) any change in the present
     management of the Partnership; (e) any material change in the present
     capitalization or dividend policy of the Partnership; (f) any material
     change in the Partnership's business or partnership structure; (g) any
     changes in the Partnership Agreement or other actions which may impede the
     acquisition of control of the Partnership; (h) a class of securities of the
     Partnership to be delisted from a national securities exchange; (i) a class
     of equity securities of the Partnership becoming eligible for termination
     or registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities 

                                 Page 4 of 13
<PAGE>
 
     Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; or (j) any action similar to the actions
     enumerated in (a) through (i) of this paragraph.

     Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer

               Upon exercise in full of the Options, QSV will own 400,000 Units,
     subject to adjustment under antidilution provisions of the Options, which
     will represent 7.94% of the outstanding Units.  QSV will have sole power to
     direct the vote and disposition of these Units.

               Fred H. Margolin, Chairman of the Board, Secretary and Treasurer
     of QSV, owns 7,655 Units, and has sole voting and investment power over
     such Units.  Of the 7,655 Units, Mr. Margolin purchased 900 Units through
     a licensed broker on March 28, 1995, at a price of $15.50 per unit, and 150
     Units through a licensed broker on March 30, 1995, at a price of $15.50 per
     unit.

               Robert J. Stetson, President and Chief Executive Officer of QSV,
     owns 11,600 Units, and has sole voting and investment power over such
     Units.

               Except as described herein, neither QSV nor, to the best
     knowledge of QSV, any current QSV executive officer or director has
     effected any transactions in the Units during the past 60 days.

     Item 6.  Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With
               Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

               Under certain circumstances set forth in the Partnership
     Agreement, QSV may require the Partnership to register under applicable
     securities laws QSV's transfer of Units that it may own, including Units
     acquired pursuant to the Options.

               The Partnership granted the Options to QSV pursuant to an Option
     Agreement dated as of March 24, 1995.

               Except as described herein, neither QSV nor, to the best
     knowledge of QSV, any current QSV executive officer or director, is a party
     to any contract, arrangement, undertaking or relationship (legal or
     otherwise) with any person with respect to any securities of the
     Partnership, including but not limited to, the transfer or voting of any of
     the securities of the Partnership, finder's fees, joint ventures, loan or
     option arrangements, put or calls, guarantees or profits, divisions of
     profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies.

                                OPTION AGREEMENT

     This Option Agreement (this "Agreement"), dated as of March 24, 1995, is
between U.S. Restaurant Properties Master L.P., a Delaware limited partnership
(the "Partnership"), and QSV Properties Inc., a Delaware corporation that is the
Managing General Partner of the Partnership (the "Managing General Partner").

                                    RECITALS

     WHEREAS, Section 5.05(a) of the Second Amended and Restated Agreement of
Limited Partnership of the Partnership (the "Partnership Agreement") provides
that the Partnership may grant options to purchase units of limited partnership
in the Partnership (the "Units") to the Managing General Partner upon the
approval by a Majority Vote of the Limited Partners (as defined in the
Partnership Agreement);

     WHEREAS, at a special meeting of the Partnership's limited partners on
March 17, 1995, the limited partners approved by a Majority Vote of the Limited
Partners the issuance of options to the Managing General Partner to purchase
400,000 Units; and

     WHEREAS, in consideration of the Managing General Partner's efforts in
connection with the approval by the limited partners of the Partnership of
amendments to the Partnership Agreement and the additional efforts that it will
expend to expand the Partnership's business and opportunities as contemplated
under the Partnership Agreement, the Partnership desires to grant options to the
Managing General Partner to purchase 400,000 Units, upon the terms and
conditions hereinafter set forth.

                                   AGREEMENT

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the
agreements herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound
hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

                                  I.  OPTIONS

     Section 1.1  Grant of the Options.  The Partnership hereby grants to the
Managing General Partner options (the "Options") to purchase 400,000 Units at an
exercise price of $15.50 per Unit (the "Exercise Price").

     Section 1.2  Vesting. Unless otherwise accelerated pursuant to Section 1.5
hereof, the Options will vest in full and become exercisable on March 24, 1996.

     Section 1.3  Exercise.  Subject to Sections 1.2 and 1.5, the Options shall
only be exercisable during the period beginning at 9:00 a.m. Central Time on
March 24, 1996 and ending at 5:00 p.m. Central Time on March 24, 2005 (the
"Exercise Period").  During the Exercise Period, the Managing General Partner
may exercise any or all of the Options granted under this Agreement.  Following
any such exercise, this Agreement shall remain in effect with respect to any
remaining unexercised Options. To exercise any Options, the Managing General
Partner must deliver to the Partnership

                                       1
<PAGE>
 
a written notice of such exercise (a "Notice of Exercise"), which notice must
specify the number of Options exercised and the aggregate Exercise Price for the
Units to be issued. Along with the Notice of Exercise, the Managing General
Partner shall pay such aggregate Exercise Price to the Partnership by delivery
of cash or a cashier's check payable to the Partnership.

     Section 1.4  Investment Representation and Warranty.

     The Managing General Partner hereby represents and warrants to the
Partnership that the Managing General Partner (a) is experienced in the
evaluation of businesses similar to the Partnership, (b) is able to fend for
itself in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (c) has such
knowledge, skill and experience in financial, investment and business matters as
to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of exercising the Options, (d)
has the ability to bear the economic risks of exercising the Options, and (e)
has reviewed all financial and other information that it considers necessary to
evaluate an investment in the Units.

     Section 1.5  Ceasing to Serve as Managing General Partner.

     (a) In the event the Managing General Partner is removed as a General
Partner pursuant to Section 14.02 of the Partnership Agreement, the Options
shall immediately vest in full (if not already vested) and shall be exercisable
in the manner described in Section 1.3 hereof for a period of six (6) months
from the date of such ceasing to serve; provided, however, that in no event
                                        --------  -------                  
shall the Options be exercisable after 5:00 p.m. Central Time on March 24, 2005.
Upon the earlier of (i) the expiration of such six-month period or (ii) March
24, 2005, the Options shall terminate and shall no longer be exercisable.

     (b) In the event the Managing General Partner voluntarily withdraws from
the Partnership pursuant to Section 14.01 of the Partnership Agreement or
pursuant to Section 17-602(a) of the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited
Partnership Act in violation of Section 14.01 of the Partnership Agreement, upon
such voluntary withdrawal the Options shall terminate, shall not vest (if not
already vested), and, if already vested, shall no longer be exercisable.

     (c) In the event the Managing General Partner ceases to serve as the
Managing General Partner for a reason other than those described in Sections
1.5(a) or (b) hereof, such ceasing to serve shall not affect vesting of the
Options pursuant to Section 1.2 hereof or the Managing General Partner's right
to exercise the Options pursuant to Section 1.3 hereof.

     Section 1.6  Adjustments.  Each Option shall entitle the Managing General
Partner to purchase one Unit.  If subsequent to the date hereof an Adjustment
Event (as hereinafter defined) occurs, then any unexercised Options existing at
that time shall be converted into the right to purchase the number of Units or
other securities that would have been received by a holder of the number of
Units for which such unexercised Options could have been exercised immediately
before such Adjustment Event.  Corresponding adjustments shall also then be made
to:  (a) the number of unexercised Options so that such number equals the new
number of Units or other securities for which they are exercisable, and (b) the
Exercise Price so that the aggregate Exercise Price for the unexercised Options
immediately before the Adjustment Event equals the aggregate Exercise Price for
the unexercised Options immediately after such event.  If pursuant to this
Section 1.6 the Options become exercisable into securities other than Units,
references in this Agreement to the Units shall after the Adjustment Event refer
to such securities.  The term "Adjustment Event" shall mean any combination or

                                       2
<PAGE>
 
split-up of the Units, or any required exchange of the Units for another
security, whether pursuant to the consolidation, merger, recapitalization,
reclassification, or reorganization of the Partnership or otherwise.

     Section 1.6  No Unitholder Rights.  The Managing General Partner shall not
be considered the holder of any Units issuable upon exercise of the Options
until the Partnership has properly issued them upon the exercise of the
respective Options in accordance with this Agreement.  The Managing General
Partner shall therefore not be entitled to receive any distributions on such
Units or to vote them until such issuance.

     Section 1.7  Transferability.  The Options are not transferable except by
operation of law pursuant to a consolidation, merger, recapitalization or
reorganization of the Managing General Partner.  Any transferee of the Managing
General Partner's rights under this Agreement and any transferee of any of the
Options pursuant to this Section 1.7 shall be subject to the terms and
provisions of this Agreement as if such transferee was the Managing General
Partner.

                               II.  RESTRICTIONS

     Section 2.1  Prohibitions on Exercise.  Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement, the Partnership shall not be required to issue any
Units upon an exercise of the Options until:  (a) the Partnership has listed the
Units to be issued or the related depository receipts on the stock exchanges,
the National Market System (the "National Market System") of the National
Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System (the "NASDAQ
System"), or the NASDAQ System, respectively, upon which the Units or the
related depository receipts are then listed, and (b) the Partnership believes
that such issuance will not violate any federal, state, or other securities law.
Upon execution of this Agreement, the Partnership will use reasonable efforts to
list the Units to be issued or the related depository receipts on the stock
exchanges, the National Market System, or the NASDAQ System, respectively, upon
which the Units are then listed.

     Section 2.2  Restricted Securities.  The Managing General Partner
acknowledges that neither the issuance of the Options nor the Units issuable
upon their exercise will be registered under any federal, state, or other
securities law, and that they will therefore be "restricted securities" under
Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

     Section 2.3  Section 16 Restrictions.  Except as permitted without
violating Section 16 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and
the rules promulgated thereunder, the Managing General Partner represents and
warrants to the Partnership that the Managing General Partner has not sold any
Units during the six month period immediately preceding the date hereof.

                                 III.  GENERAL

     Section 3.1  Amendment.  No amendment or modification of any of the
provisions of this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by
both the Partnership and the Managing General Partner.

     Section 3.2  Entire Agreement.  This Agreement constitutes the entire
agreement and understanding between the Partnership and the Managing General
Partner with respect to the Options and supersedes all prior agreements and
understandings, both written and oral, with respect to the Options.

with this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be considered delivered only

     Section 3.5  Severability.  Any provision of this Agreement that is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction,
be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability (but shall

remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or
enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

     Section 3.6  Status as the Managing General Partner. Neither this Agreement
nor the Options granted hereunder shall confer upon the Managing General Partner
the right to continue to serve as the Managing General Partner of the

inure to the benefit of each party hereto and its successors and permitted

     Section 3.8  Payment of Withholding Tax. In the event that the Partnership
determines that any federal, state or local tax or any other charge is required
by law to be withheld with respect to the exercise of the Options granted
hereby, the Managing General Partner shall, as an additional requirement under
Section 1.3 hereof, upon notice from the Partnership, pay to the Partnership
cash in an amount equal to such withholding tax or charge, prior to the issuance
of Units to the Managing General Partner and the admission of the Managing
General Partner as a partner of the Partnership with respect to such Units, or
otherwise make such arrangements for the payment of such withholding tax as the
Partnership, in its sole discretion, shall permit.
