“great home-style burger. very well done.“

“Great spot, I like the burgers better than Whataburger but they're very similar. Lots of seating out back. Plus there's the ice cream.

Parking: Halfway down the drive thru there's an additional parking lot.“

“Great drinks with low key atmosphere“

“Visited Austin for a few days and looked up a brunch spot to hit up… the name caught my attention and it did not disappoint! The kimchi hash was phenomenal! And you can never go wrong w a smoked salmon bagel! We will definitely be back when in the area! Staff was attentive, nice and the atmosphere was great! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Best smash burger in Austin! Hands down. Holy hell, I've been dreaming about it every day since I went last week. They just absolutely nailed it. The cheese thr crispy patties the perfect blend of pickles and sauses. And the fries were crazy good too. A smoky ketchup and the creaminess ice cream were the icing on the cake. Go here for sure!!“

“Adorable place with amazing food, decor, music, and service - can’t wait to come back!!!! The manager, Emilio was so sweet and friendly! He made us feel so welcome. Definitely our new favorite place on Manor Rd, we had the best experience - thank you so much for making Andrew’s birthday special tonight!!“

“Best Mom and Pop's burger joint I've visited since moving here to Austin. highly recommended, great prices and great food!“

“Gimme Burger is one of the best burgers in Austin, but the fried okra is THE BEST OKRA YOU WILL EVER HAVE. And, the service from this food truck is better than 80% of the brick-and-mortar restaurants in town; seriously, it’s a refreshing reprieve from the transplant diluted culture of Austin.“

“This place is AMAZING!!! I ruin my diet every time I walk by this stand. My only selfish complaint is that their doordash fee is steeep, but maybe that’s a good thing, they knew we wouldn’t be able to control ourselves lol sliders by definition are small so I usually get two but I recommend getting more if you’re hungry. Really great food and the people working there are always super nice!“

“Our server was amazing, I don't remember her name, unfortunately. I had the shrimp tacos and my husband and son had a pasta dish with shrimp and sausage, but I don't remember the name of that. It was delicious. We had steamed clams for an appetizer, and my only regret is that it wasn't served with a spoon so we could drink the rest of the broth. Delicious! “

“Been steady customer but last couple visits it's very obvious burger patty has become noticeably thinner and dry--- going back to Dan's!“

“We loved the food here! The burgers were so flavorful and juicy. The corn dog on the kids menu was a nice big size my niece took half of hers home in her cool car carrier that the kids meals arrive in. The service was fast and friendly. The atmosphere was awesome. We played oversized Jenga outside on the patio and had a blast!! Kids can run around in the open area out back. Loved everything about this place! Will definitely return and for sure recommend.“

“Great food, atmosphere, tradition, family, UT football, fun times!“

“As always, the staff was very friendly and professional. Food was great, but I’m sure you already knew that.“

“Greatest place I’ve ever been. I was on my first date and I was nervous but the atmosphere and the people and the staff made it so much easier it was amazing. The food is great. The nachos are a little overwhelming. It had too much stuff on there the drink prices were good. The drinks was OK. I Wish we could have kept the unicorn cup, but it’s all good but it’s definitely a place to go out on a date. It’s beautiful. It’s fun DJ atmosphere. It was wonderful“

“Great customer service and delicious burgers & fries!“

“The employees there, especially Caroline, one of the front workers, are always kind and swift help and provide excellent service. The restaurant appears to be cleaned thoroughly throughout the day. Kudos for all that they do!“

“Ate here for the first time today. food was beyond delicious. The staff was great Will be going back soon. Live in Bastrop but it is definitely worth the drive.“

“Loved the friendly staff, yummy food and drinks, and dog friendly patio! As a vegetarian I never know if there will be anything more substantial than fried snacks for me to eat at casual places like this, but the veggie sandwich was SO good and the vegan soft serve was a nice sweet finish. The meat eaters and non drinkers in the group were also pleased with the offerings. Already trying to plan our next trip back!

Vegetarian options: A+ for the veggie sandwich and fried pickles. Bonus points for the vegan soft serve.“

“Friendly atmosphere and staff. Delicious hamburgers and the sriracha Cole slaw was very flavorful. Good music too!“

“NADC makes one of the better burgers in town. It reminded me of all the good things about a Big Mac or Double Double but done 1000 times better. The tastes were great and it wasn’t overly greasy. It is one of those burgers that you shouldn’t scarf but rather take time to savor, especially at the $16 price point. Despite the price, if NADC was in my driving triangle, I’d be here frequently.“

“Great food! Great atmosphere! lots of soccer fans. I will definitely come back again.“

“I brought in a group of 17 seniors and we all had an excellent experience at the Delray Cafe. Zeev and Rivka, the owners, were exceptionally nice and accommodating and made everyone in our group feel like VIPs! The service was prompt and the food was very good.“

“This establishment is a must visit. The food and atmosphere is wonderful. The food is great and the service is top notch. Review by Gabriel A Culiat“

“I’m from out of town and stumbled across this hamburger stand by accident. The burgers are delicious (the secret sauce seals the deal), the fries are yummy and the double chocolate shake is awesome!!! I make a stop here every time I’m in Austin. A+++“

“First timers here and we love the atmosphere!“

“I normally don’t leave reviews, but I had such a great experience the other night I had to share! The drinks and food were amazing, but the bartender Brooke was even better! She was so welcoming, kind, and thoughtful. Made me this amazing shot I had never heard of and I loved it! Will definitely be back to for more recommendations.“

“Was able to get tickets for the “sneak peek” for my father who works at UT. He loved the atmosphere and said the food is delicious. Im still drooling over the pictures he texted lol. He also said to make sure to add that the entire staff was very friendly and inviting. I look forward to swinging by as well very soon. Welcome to the neighborhood—Hook Em :)“

“Beer is above average. Great staff. My glass never went empty.“

“Wanted to experience something fun prior to heading to the airport. Great variety, great prices, great time!“

“I don’t want to post to overcrowd the place but this is THE spot. I’m a nickel city/lost well/violet crown lover so if those are your spots then this will be the best rec! Food is outrageously good and cheap, drinks are stiff, beer is ICE COLD, and the staff is friendly! (Especially the girl with the gorgeous long strawberry blonde hair) I wish I knew her name because she always takes such good care of whoever I take there. There’s pool tables and intimate seating available. The parking isn’t the best but you should be Ubering anyways!!!! Ha!“

“Cute vibes, and a different take on Korean food.

Food: we had the fried chicken, seasonal salad, and the wagyu. When looking around.. sooo many people had the fried chicken and our server told us they were known for their fried chicken and wagyu steak- which is why we got both. The fried chicken was a bit of a letdown for me. It was dry, wasn’t that crispy, and the flavor wasn’t out of this world- just tasted like toasted seaweed because of the nori flakes. Idk… just didn’t get the hype for $36 for a very small half bird. The wagyu was good tho, if not a bit sweet. Think bulgogi sauce marinaded. They had a great dipping sauce, but the meat wasn’t particularly tender and I wasn’t even asked what temperature I like my steak. It came out med rare. The kimchi that accompanied it was a cantaloupe kimchi.. which was ok, not my fav. The side pear salad tho was delicious, but still.. $18 for a side of pears and cucumbers.

Atmosphere was good. Very vibey and cute.

There’s a parking garage connected and they validate parking.“

“I enjoyed this "burger speakeasy" inside ZEN. The concept is pure genius, and the execution is even better.I recently tried the Swagyu Cheeseburger, Chicken Katsu, sidewinder fries, and house-made Asian slaw, and the flavors blew me away. The Asian seasonings and sauces really take these dishes to the next level. The Swagyu burger was juicy and flavorful, and the chicken katsu was crispy and tender. The sidewinder fries were a fun twist on the classic, and the Asian slaw was the perfect refreshing accompaniment.The service was also excellent, with attentive and friendly staff who clearly take pride in their work.Good stuff! Check it out.“

“I really like this new addition to Austin Bergstrom International Airport. They have great counter service and tasty burgers and sides, breakfast too.“

“Looking for a great burger to fuel your Rainey street adventure, look no further. Had their turkey burger and their fried chicken burger. Between the two recommend the fried chicken burger.Would come back again if we were in the area. While the counter staff weren't mean, they didn't say a word to us while we ordered and didn't offer us any food suggestions when asked.All in ,food was around $30.Still, we'd be back again if we wanted some late night food!“

“Bella Donna Subs is a true hidden gem in Austin, and it’s my go to sandwich place. They’ve got a big menu with all types of hot and cold sandwiches and burgers. Prices are reasonable and food is always great. Robert, the owner is awesome and always provides great customer service!“

“The food is just fantastic. The people are great. When I call in my order they are very personable. When I go to pick up my order they recognize me & say "hey CJ" before I even tell them who I am. I want to try everything on the menu, BUT I'm stuck on the OG & BBQ brisket. Just can shy away from them. Wish they would expand towards the Kyle area so I could eat there on the weekends too :-) .“

“An old Austin favorite of ours....Been coming here (and Fran's, when it was still around) for years and love the delicious breakfast as well as the best cheeseburgers in Austin! Bring your appetite, because the burgers are big & juicy, the waitresses are friendly and the atmosphere just reminds me of an Austin that once was!“

“Great diner, the pancake the size of your head was the perfect serving size. Their homemade sausage was good too.“

“I’ve passed through there many times and have always wanted to stop. I had the opportunity tonight and this place at this late hour didn’t disappoint me!!! Will be back to the friendly service, outdoor atmosphere and awesome wagyu burger and fries.“

“I go here almost weekly, best wings and frozen margs in town. Laid back, but good service. 10/10, no other wing place beats Wingzup.“

“I recently had lunch here and tried the DeVille Rice Bowl, and it was fantastic! The flavors were vibrant and perfectly balanced. The combination of fresh ingredients and seasonings made it one of the best rice bowls I've ever had. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a delicious and satisfying meal during their break!“

“Machetes are a must try. They are delicious.“

“Dan’s is all about the hamburger! It’s a classic, no-frills, old-school burger joint, and the food is 5 stars—it holds a special place in my heart!

You might not know that the biscuits and gravy from the breakfast menu are life-changing! It’s the perfect way to kick off your day (or wrap it up) with a great meal.

If you haven’t checked out Dan’s yet, you definitely should. It’s a no-frills spot, so don’t expect anything fancy—but the food speaks for itself!“

“Songbird always fills that burger/fried food craving! I got a breakfast sandwich today with fried chicken, hash brown, sunny side up egg, maple syrup, & jam. God bless the friendly staff here that always take care of me. The manager, Noel, is always on top of things!“

“10/10 man, the people working here are fantastic and they're great to chat here. maybe it was the manager but he had amazing hospitality. Would recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Got the classic and the sincronizada burgers and they were awesome. The classic had their special sauce and was juice and very well seasoned. The sincronizada was a very interesting mix of a burger and a taco. The chorizo did not overpower the whole burger and it had a tortilla inside the burger, very creative mix of flavors, would recommend if you are feeling adventurous and want to try a different style burger. The fries were nice and crispy, not soggy and well seasoned.“
