“Amazing!!! Great atmosphere, amazing food, and down to earth owner!!!“

“Fantastic burgers and shakes!“

“Wow! This place is soooo good. The first time I went I tried the Mission Burger and it was amazing. Since then I’ve tried the steak sandwich, bbq brisket, and mac & cheese and all are delicious. You would never guess everything is plant based. Keep up the great work and please open a restaurant near Grant Park!“

“Been eating at Dan’s since the 70’s. Best burger in United States. I eaten at all their locations and my favorite was at Barton Skyway and south Lamar (long gone). Now I go to Buda for my burger/pancake fix. Locations S Congress RIP S Lamar RIP N Lamar Airport Blvd Cameron Rd RIP Manchaca Rd Buda“

“This is the best burger I’ve ever tried in my entire life!!! I had the Veggie Burger El Diablo and my husband had the Wagyu Burger. The French fries with truffle sauce are also amazing. We are falling in love with this place. ❤❤❤❤“

“This iconic Austin Tx restaurant has been here since 1947 serving great burgers and soft serve desserts.

FYI, Although most of the restaurant is handicapped friendly, Including lots of parking, the clean single-seat restrooms are no larger than those on an airplane.“

“My wife and I visited last Wednesday on our vacation from Minnesota. The brisket was great, the barbacoa was the best I've ever had anywhere. The onion rings were amazing and I don't personally care for onion rings. The jalapeno cheese chorizo was outstanding. As good as all those were the beef ribs were the best most perfect bite of food I've ever had... But what really stood out is the amazing staff from Evan greeting us as we walked in the door to everyone that we met so helpful kind and cheerful! Having worked in the service industry for most of my life it's always a joy to be treated so well!“

“To go 👍🏻 Austin tradition Have eaten there since before high school on South Congress when it was owned by Dan and Fran I know the kids Austin’s tradition everyone it’s Austin’s has eaten there I have my own line cook his name is Cheyenne don’t be asking for him because he’s mine just kidding“

“10/10 delicious food, friendly staff!“

“Great drinks with low key atmosphere“

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

“My first time. I loved the atmosphere, relaxed vibe and fast service. At first l, I thought the burger was small (Deep End). Ðon't let it fool you. Turns out it took me 3 days to finish it 😅 it was more and became more and more delicious as leftovers. And you can walk off your meal down at the park or read 📚 😏. Even though there super busy, staff were fast total professionals and tended to me asking if I needed a drink. That was nice to get that attention - as busy as they were. The ambience had an old school vibe - real oldies I freaked out it such a young crowd. Very cool n hip place and everybody had manners as busy as it was. I loved it. Y. SATx“

“Staff - especially Nikki at the front was extremely helpful! Game was also super fun!“

“Best burgers I've had in Austin. I regret not living within an hour of this place. I would drive there at least once a week. Unfortunately I live 4 hours away. 😭“

“My daughter and I were able to eat gluten free and it was one of the best GF buns and the fries and milk shakes were soo good.“

“The food was so good. the wagyu burger is a must try. loved the bacon cheeseburger with bacon and grilled onions. nice atmosphere. we chose to sit outside. walking distance from sight seeing on the bridge.“

“I’ve been to Top Notch before, and every time the food is fantastic. The fries are always crispy and delicious, and the shakes are absolutely incredible, easily some of my favorites around.

On my most recent visit, Owen was working the register, and his kindness genuinely made my day. When I went to pay for my drink, he unexpectedly gave it to me on the house. It was such a thoughtful gesture and speaks volumes about the level of customer service he provides.

Great food is one thing, but employees like Owen are what keep people coming back. Thank you for the wonderful experience; I’ll definitely be returning!“

“I crave their breakfast tacos regularly, they’re always so solid. My favorite is the Sausage, egg, potato and cheese they are all great though.

The shredded potatoes are like a soft mix of hash browns and mashed potatoes. Tacos are big and full of flavor. The sausage is locally sourced, and the salsa is fresh with a great kick.

Staff is friendly, prices are fair, and call-in orders are easy. Highly recommend!“

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

“Great BBQ and amazing burgers!“

“PLEASE SUPPORT THIS LOCAL GEM!!

We saw a local on TikTok say Falafel Burger had the best gyro he’d ever had and encourage everyone in the area to give it a try, so we decided to check it out for date night. SO glad we did!!

First of all, the location is adorable! It’s in an old Sonic, which makes the whole place feel so unique, cozy, and fun. You can order through a QR code for pickup, use the drive-through, or walk up to order, and they even have outdoor seating. Such a convenient and fun little setup!

The owner was SO nice, and it was amazing to see him running the whole operation himself. You can tell this is a place worth supporting.

We tried the beef gyro and chicken shawarma, and both were REALLY good. But the absolute stars of the show for us were the falafel, hummus, and baklava. Seriously, some of the best we’ve ever had!! Everything was so flavorful, the sauces were incredible, and you can tell there’s a lot of care put into the food.

Between the amazing food, great prices, super friendly owner, and the overall cozy, fun energy of the place, this is exactly the kind of local business you want to support. We will absolutely be back!! I will dream of the falafel ❤“

“Burger I had for lunch yesterday was so yummy. Bacon was delicious, fries were done to perfection. Highly recommend.“

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

“Awesome burgers awesome fries. The staff was amazing very friendly. We will definitely be back.“

“Love this place.

I don’t think anyone goes to Frazier’s for the atmosphere, its sortof just a local bar.

I eat and review burgers often, and Frazier’s just makes it simple. The slider is exactly as they describe it— glorified Big Mac.

It’s a big mac if it tasted like the person who made it actually cares if it tasted good. Can’t beat the price, even for the serving size.“

“This place is the BEST Burger joint in Austin hands down! and not just Burgers all of their food,laid back chill atmosphere, ALL of the employees are on point no fake personalities the heck with 5 stars this place gets 10 stars!!“

“Forrest was a great server“

“This place is a true hidden gem! The selection is amazing, and every flavor perfectly compliments the other. I literally dreamed about these burgers after my first visit. Highly suggest the "I can't decide" so you can try 2 at once, and the truffle fries. the staff are fantastic and always helpful. I can't wait to go back and try even more of their menu!!!“

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

“I’ve been enjoying this awesome joint since middle school (25 years ago) and it never gets old! Every single item on the menu is cool as Austin is. Highly recommend this establishment at least once a week if you can afford it. And you will be able to afford it because they have reasonable prices!“

“So good! Smash burger with charred edges. Inside is juicy and cheesy and the pickles are thick. 10/10 the onion wedges are also awesomeeeee. Seasoned good and are thick. The house sauce is a version of a thousand island like in n out and the spicy sauce has a horseradish taste“

“Burger I had for lunch yesterday was so yummy. Bacon was delicious, fries were done to perfection. Highly recommend.“

“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“

“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 :)“

“Great vegan burger. now we need is Vegan fries. 😁“

“Brought a friend in for the smash burger hour hour and thoroughly enjoyed it. Loved our server! She was so informative, attentive, kind. (*only issue that the AC was full blast as to where it was almost too chilly! ha (how could this be in Austin during the heat?! :-) Overall, a great time, yummy dishes! ***the Baba Ghanoush is a must!“

“Arsenal's official Austin Bar!!!“

“went here while I was in Vegas only a week after they opened. the only sad thing was that didnt have shirts for sale yet. delicious beef, good flavor, the sauce brought it all together and and a beautiful soft bun that held and didnt crumble. The fries are perfect and dont sleep on their Chipotle ketchup. This is a must stop while in Vegas!“

“Great BBQ and amazing burgers!“
