Holy moly this place is good. Someone told me to try Arlo's because they make their own burger patties instead of using Impossible. I was a little worried at first because I've had SO MANY mushy vegan burger patties at places that make their own. These were excellent! On top of that, the burger itself with the buns and toppings is just made incredibly well. I wasn't a fan of the vegan bacon. It just tastes like slices of seitan.....which is exactly what it is. It's not bad but just didn't add anything (except more protein!) to the burger. I also went back on another day to try the chicken sandwich. I was a little disappointed because I thought it might be a crispy chicken sandwich. I couldn't tell from the pic on their site. It was another seitan patty. The taste though was amazing!! I'll be getting it again for sure. Also the tots and fried pickles here are top notch. I wouldn't recommend the Mac and cheese though. It had a flavor I've never experienced before. The service is also super fast and friendly, which I appreciate. There is just a little window you walk up to and ring a doorbell. Sort of hard to miss if you aren't looking! read more

You can genuinely never go wrong with Arlo's. I went here with my best friend after a long time, and we both loved it just as we did before. We always do the bacon cheeseburger with tots--he gets no ketchup, no mustard, and I get no ketchup. read more

Wow best vegan cheeseburger I've had! So many people have recommended this local Austin vegan eatery, and I'm so glad I gave it a try! It did take 20 minutes for the food to be ready even when there wasn't a line, and no customers picked up their food while we were waiting so it seemed like we were the only order. There were also bees and bugs that swarmed around when the food was brought out, so we ended up having to eat in the car instead of at the tables outside. I tried the bacon chzburger ($10) while my sister got the Hoss (bbq brisket burger, $12) which she thought was spicy but very good. I thought my burger tasted amazing and savory but also with just a hint of spicy flavor in the ketchup of the cheeseburger. Other than the long wait and inability to enjoy the food at the tables, we loved the food! read more

Arlos was such a random find for me on Yelp and I'm so glad I found it. We were browsing some restaurants / food trucks in the area and that's how I find it. We got a jalapeño chicken seitan sandwich and it was so tasty. I'm a big chicken eater so it was so interesting to me, I'll definitely got this sandwich again. We also got their famous Mac and cheese, I've never seen it be so flavorful and I loved it. It was a little bit too oily for my liking but the flavor and texture was spot on. Do try it out! read more

The bbq burger is one of the BEST vegan burgers I've had. It's actually not on the menu, but if you ask the counter, they'll make it for you. And the price is pretty good. The tots are pretty salty. I could only handle like 5 before stopping. My friend got the bacon cheezburger and it was very saucy. She said it was good, but unfortunately super saucy. It's a food truck so only outdoor seating, but there's a parking lot and lots of street parking so parking shouldn't be a problem. Highly recommend read more

Vegan from my head to-ma-toes Highlights: *Vegan burger *Crispy Tots *Mac & Cheese on a burger Review: Highly recommended spot by one of my coworkers which was not a miss-steak. Let's start with the tots which were crispy, salty, well seasoned, hot and perfectly soft in the center. Now for the Cheezeburger, it was full of flavor, hints of smokiness, seasoned to perfection, charred, nuttiness from the cheeze, acidity from the pickles, saltiness from the bac'n, great texture from the patty and the Mac & Cheeze added some amazing creaminess to elevate it. Can't wait to try their other vegan menu items. Rating: 8/10 BAC'N CHEEZEBURGER (Add Mac) - House made soy free & gluten free patty, stacked with house-made seitan bac'n, melted cheeze, ketchup. mustard, mayo. tomatoes, onions, pickles. and lettuce. Side of Tots read more

This burger is tied with Bouldin Creek Cafe's Royale as the best burger in town. I love that, like the Royale, this burger is a vegetable-based burger as opposed to just another Beyond/Impossible burger. This is also the best place to go before or after a show at Mohawk! read more

There is no veggie burger that can compete with Arlo's bakin cheez burger or however it's spelled. I miss the full Arlo's experience of the food truck and seating area. But the food is still terrific. read more

Arlo's was just ok. Personally, I believe that food should taste good whether it's vegan or not. We ordered the popular Bac'n Cheezeburger, The Ranch Hand, and fried pickles. All of them were incredibly salty - I had to drink water after each bite. The Cheezeburger was way too ketchup-y which masked all the other flavors. And the burger turned into mush with food constantly falling out. The Ranch Hand is a chicken wrap with jalapeño ranch. I know this place is known for vegan burgers, but this wrap was the best thing we ordered (though very salty). The fried pickles were crunchy and came in a solid portion size. Overall, we left full but not impressed. read more

Arlo's is my favorite food truck and I'm not vegan. I just wish there was a location south of the river and I'd be eating it once a week again! I always order the chipotle chick-n sandwich and the Mac n cheez. My favorites! read more

Disclaimer: I'm a meat eater I had pretty high expectations based on the reviews and what others have said about it. The food was pretty lackluster. I had half a bac'n cheezburger and half a chipotle chick'n. My friends got tacos, mac, and fries. The burger: It was pretty sizable, but that's expected for $9. It had a good amount of toppings, but there was way too much ketchup and mustard and mayo. The patty was very soft and kinda fell apart into the bits it was made of. Due to the hefty amount of sauce and cheese, I just had a sloppy, messy cheeseburger experience. The chicken: It was drier and tougher, just a simple sandwich with not much to it especially in comparison to the overly sauced burger. The fake chicken felt like a processed, dense meatball and had an interesting spiced flavor. My friends got tacos and said they weren't that filling or tasty. The illusion of street or chicken tacos isn't quite real. The mac n cheeze had a strange flavor. The parking is good and the picnic tables are nice. You order online and service is average. Would I come again? Hmm... maybe with a vegan friend, but definitely not with meat lovers or anyone who has a weak stomach. One of my friends felt kinda sick afterwards. read more

This food trucks is serving all vegan burger and hot dog options. We ordered the bac'n cheezeburger adding mac since we heard so much about it. We thought it was really good. It had nice texture and the mac added a nice level of flavor to the burger. You can barely tell it's fake meat! We also got the chipotle chick'n burger. This one definitely had more spice and flavor compared to the other one and it was my personal favorite. We added sweet potato fries as a side and were kinda underwhelmed. We were expecting way more than 10 fries when we paid $3... the fries were good, but just wish there was enough. It didn't even feel like it would've been enough for one person. Overall, I would come back for the burgers, not the fries. The staff is nice and there is a nice outdoor seating area right next to it. It makes me feel healthy after I eat it, and it doesn't leave a greasy feel in my mouth like some burger places do. read more

Wow 10/10 burger. The bacon and patty were so savory. I added Mac and cheese to my burger, tbh wish it was as flavorful as the rest of the burger but was still pretty good! Nice shaded benches at the Spider room location. Would 100% recommend the bacon cheese burger to anyone visiting Austin! So far it's been my favorite vegan spot since visiting. read more

I had a cheese burger no extra bacon here and I COLD NOT TELL THE DIFFERENCE. Not to mention there was also an awesome drag show in the background and it's inside my favorite gay bar Cheer Up Charlie's! The burger is huge! If you're not a huge eater you may need to split with someone. Tator tots are super plentiful and soooo crispyy!! The Mac and cheese was tasty. The flavor is a little too smokey tasting for my personal preference.. but the noodles were cooked al dente and it tasted like a smokey mac and cheese little on the drier side Mac and cheese not the super gooey kind . Best way of describing it. Highly recommend if you're on riverside listening to music and need a quick bite! They get your phone number so they text you when you when you're order is done! read more

Great food, just not the same as the OG Arlos...the menu is the same but the vibe isn't. Sad, but thankful for what is still there.

Definitely one of the best vegetarian meals I have ever had. Arlo's is one of three vegan/vegetarian food trucks located in this lot. I stopped by on a Sunday afternoon for a late lunch and I was certainly not disappointed. There is a little parking lot right next to the food truck that can hold maybe 10-15 cars. The lot was full when I arrived but there was ample street parking right across the street. There are 5-6 picnic tables set up in front of the truck. Some tables were equipped with an umbrella for shade. I opted for the frito pie burger (hold the cheese) and it was fantastic. The Fritos were fresh and provided a nice crunch to each bite. The bean based chili was cooked just right - the beans had a nice consistency, not too hard and not complete mush. Wonderfully seasoned. The patty itself had a bit of crisp to it and held together throughout the meal. There was a slight lather of chipotle mayo sauce that kind of tied everything together. This is a hefty burger so I was left completely satisfied. The side of tots were a bit too crisp for my liking but they still tasted great. read more

Great vegetarian food. However, the prices are shocking. You get to pay $14 plus tip to eat a burger in a wretched parking lot.

Ok, I have been vegetarian for 8 years and this is the best vegan burger I have ever had! I got the bacon cheeseburger with mac on it. You will need a fork but the best burgers are messy, right? ;) If you're vegetarian/vegan this is a bucket list burger! Also, prices are so reasonable. Its hard to find a vegan burger for $10 these days. read more

Went to Spider House for a live show with friends & stumbled upon Arlo's for the first time. Many margs in & very hungry, was very excited to try this infamous veggie burger. Hard to find ingredients in the patty but did find an article specifying "house-made patty made of lentils, millet, carrots, button mushrooms, red onions, herbs, and spices sits on a large brioche bun." Either way 10/10 would eat again read more

Vegan Burgers here are truly one of the GREATEST! I got the BBQ burger and it did not disappoint. Super filling, juicy, and flavorful. I also got tater tots on the side and they gave me soo many i loved it! I have to say the tacos were not my favorite, they are super filling though just a little too dry for me. Definitely will be coming back to try the mac and cheese on the burger. read more

Not returning here again!! I live up north, but I usually go to the one off fruth st but they weren't answering their calls to place an order. So I decided to go where I did not want to go.. Arlos off red river-- I experience different service from the two locations. The red river location has poor service all the time ( rude) and will be my last time coming there (3rd time). They messed up on my order, I asked for a Fritos pie burger, and was charge for what I asked for... but they gave me the Fritos pie plate instead! I didn't notice until I was almost home, and then they closed. I contacted them and told me they would refund me and send me an e gift card, I followed up twice and they did not reply. I did not receive either of those. Complete BS service. read more

Okay Arlo's! I'm not sure what happened here. I've heard glowing reviews about this place. Some people even claiming they have the best vegan burgers in Austin. I have to say I 100% disagree. There are far better places in Austin with good vegan burgers. 1/5 on taste for sure. And I tried two of your burgers too. I had the Frito Pie and the one with bacon. You only have three burgers to offer and if two were a fail I don't plan to ever come back. Because of the reviews prior to my experience I decided to go for the boat of max and cheese. Biggest mistake of my life. This is hands down the worst mac and cheese I've ever had. It left a weird after taste in my mouth that I could not get rid of. It honestly tasted expired. I typically don't complain to the servers directly. But this needed to be confronted because I really t thought I was eating expired food. And this is a serious issue if it is. I asked the guy if it was expired. And he said no. When I told him this taste really gross his response and I quote "it's vegan". Excuse me?????? Obviously he isn't vegan because why would he say that otherwise? He also said people say the max and cheese here tastes weird. Then fix it?? He not only insulted Arlo's mac and cheese but every vegan Mac and cheese. I told him I've been vegan for literal years. Meaning I've had a ton of different max and cheese in my life and none of them, I'm dead serious none of them were this awful. Hands down the worst I've ever had in the over two decades I've been alive. So I asked for a refund. The guy I spoke with didn't know how so someone else came up. Pressed a bunch of buttons and said he did it. Didn't get it by the way. I was here over a week ago and yes I just checked nothing there. I just happened to be on my Yelp page when the app asked me to review it and decided yeah I will. Bad food, worse service. I would give this place 0 stars if I could. By the way there is a vegan food truck right next to Arlo's that actually does serve good food. It's a Greek Vegan food truck. If you're reading this I suggest you try there instead. read more

I wanted to like this place but it was not it. Their vegan Mac & cheese was very greasy and their burgers were not a wow factor. I been vegan for seven years and I know there is so much flavor you can add to a burger, theirs came very short. Nothing unique or special. read more

Popped by here for a quick bite while hanging out at spider house. On Monday it's the only food truck open that's viable for dinner (the milkshake truck is also open). Their menu was pretty interesting, it looked like a fairly standard American food truck until you realize everything is plant based. I decided to go for the chipotle chicken sandwich and shared some Mac and cheese. After ordering they offered to text us when the food was ready, but no less than 2 minutes after getting back to our seats we got our texts so unless they look busy I wouldn't bother to go back to your seats. As for the chicken sandwich it tasted pretty good, the slaw had a decent chipotle flavor to it. I'd have to try one of their "beef" patties, but I'm not sure what makes their chicken patty chicken flavored. It tasted like a pretty standard veggie burger that wasn't trying to replicate a meat taste. It was a fairly sizable sandwich but on the pricey end for what it is. The first thing I noticed upon getting our mac and cheese was an unusual smell, we were punched in the face with what resembled movie theater popcorn. That flavor stick with us throughout the experience, the Mac and cheese was absolutely drowned in butter. It made for a tasty first couple of bites, but got old pretty fast. Overall I probably don't see myself coming back unless I'm here on a Monday again, but if you do find yourself here the sandwiches seem to be solid. read more

Saucey. Flavorful. Satisfying af. I had the Hawt Dog and Chipotle Chicken sandwich. The Hawt Dog was fire and I highly recommend. The wiener was crispy on the outside and moist inside. Usually when I have vegan wieners they tend to be dry. This one was juicy and actually had a little kick. The jalenpeno ranch they put on top is top notch. It's creamy. The corn, carrots, and cabbage add a nice crunch. The truck itself is parked next to a local bar that has comedy shows. They have picnic bench seating. Around the corner, there are other vegan food trucks. 5/5 read more
