    Big juicy delicious burgers!! This spot is in the the Southside near Bryan ave.. I love the Southside and especially everything in this area. It's a great area to spend a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. I was able to order immediately and it was cooked up while I waited. I went for the Big Kat because I was famished lol. Two 6 oz patties, bacon and all the fixings. Over a lb of food plus regular fries and a Dr Pepper! I only left some bread and a few fries. I scarfed everything else down!! I was so full I had to walk around for a bit afterwards.

    I've been wanting to try this Food Truck since we moved in and last Saturday night was the night! Thanks to Favor Delivery, we were able to order while watching the Cowboys and those burgers were outstanding. I very seldom look at a burger and think, "I don't need to add anything to this." It was perfect! Seasoning, sauces, juicy burger, etc. I didn't have to add a thing!!

    One word - delicious. If you love burgers and you haven't tried BigKat, you are missing out. From quality, to portion size, to service, they do everything right. If you are hungover, hungry, or in the mood to try a new burger, there is something for you at BigKat. I opted for the Philly Kat - packed with candied Jalapeños, nacho cheese, girthy (sorry) mushrooms, and a nice size patty. As a bigger guy I thought - "oh I should get maybe two burgers" but I am glad I went with one. I think this is worth calling out - you get your moneys worth at BigKats and something I absolutely appreciate. The other nice thing to call out is they are partnered with the bars in the surrounding area - so if you are grabbing a drink, you can get an incredible burger as well. I am writing this review in the dead of summer - where we haven't seen a day under 100 degrees in couple of weeks. These guys are operating out of a food truck in this heat and are still cranking out delicious food. We always try to support local, and BigKat is a certainly a gem in Fort Worth you should certainly check out!

    Always a great burger and a fun group of guys! Just do it! You know you want to. It's totally worth it! Get your burger and head over to Hop Fusion!

    Big jar burger and fries
    Toya L.

    Let me just say, there ain't NO burger like a bigkat burger. That's a lot coming from me because I've never been a big burger person. These burgers are very filling and worth every penny. The flavors are definitely there. The fries could use a little work as I like mine crispy vs soft but they are still flavorful. It's a food truck so ambiance doesn't really exist if you're looking for that and my man always brings it to me so I can't personally speak on it, however my man had a full conversation with the owner and liked him and this particular day it was pouring and the owner gave the fries free due to making it out in such horrible weather and it being slow(such a nice treat/gesture). I have been back since and plan to be a repeat. I hope he makes it on the food network or something.

    Mushroom Swiss and fries
    Stephen K.

    Messy delicious burgers. Gonna need a fork to finish this off. I got the mushroom Swiss burger and it was smashed into a heavy hot cheesy gooey package with a bun that had been blackened a bit from the cooktop. Meat was flavorful and the whole thing was a decadent treat. It did fall apart on me hence the need for a fork and lots of napkins. Fries were crispy on the outside and soft in the middle. It was a glorious meal. I would try something else next time- I think regular burger toppings would be my preference over the mushroom Swiss taste profile but this was darn good. I lucked out on a perfect spring evening on a week night so it was ideal outdoor burger conditions - I can see that summer would affect one's enjoyment when eating outside. Service was quick- ordering online may be an advantageous hack to avoid a long line. Can't wait to go back when I'm in the area.

    Fries and burger--fresh and hot!
    Monica U.

    Delicious burger truck in the SOMA area! Burgers and fries are made fresh to order. We had the classic and fries. Absolutely yummy! Hand cut fries were terrific. Burger had fresh veg and the best char on the patty. Staff were nice. Must try -- jalapeño ranch! They have a picnic table outside for seating. Parking lot is a paid lot, so snag street parking if you wanna avoid paying. Perfect afternoon burger on a beautiful Saturday! Would recommend and will return!

    Peanut Butter Boi Lil Smashy
    Aaron G.

    One of the best burgers in DFW. I went there for the peanut butter boi but the staff recommended I tried the mushroom and Swiss as well. That thang was thanging too. Definitely get the mushroom and Swiss.

    What a great spot for a burger! Firstly the mushroom burger was one of my favorite all time burgers. The crazy fries they have were great too. Basically a burger on fries. The stand is perfect for a beautiful day as well. Then right when you're done you can grab a drink at the multiple spots in walking distance. We will go back.

    This place was delicious! The burgers were cooked fresh and were huge and my hubby ordered the loaded fries without reading the description and we didn't realise they had a whole burger sliced up on top of those also, we definitely had leftovers. It took a while to get our food but it was a Sunday and pretty busy also everything is cooked fresh so worth the wait. The guys were cool and friendly and there were a few benches and seats where you could wait and enjoy the local artwork across the street. The only little negative I'd have is there was no shelter for a windy day, and no restroom but if you come prepared or are taking food away, no complaints!!

    Cool wall art

    I thought I had a pic of my burger but I guess I ate it before I had the chance to snap a pic. It was a damn good burger. The staff was awesome it's hot as hell outside and there's no AC in that food truck those guys are sweating up a storm in there but they are super nice and friendly and very clean. They changed gloves every time they started another order and that's something most restaurants don't even do. I got the mushroom burger and it was everything I hoped it was. Nice mushrooms with white cheese perfectly cooked smash burgers on a buttery crispy bun. I'm rooting for them to one day get a brick and mortar. I'll continue to support.

    Paid parking is required. You won't see these signs at night due to the lack of lighting.
    David V.

    WARNING: DO NOT PARK IN THE LOT AT NIGHT (without paying)! We got "citations" sent in the mail for $50 for parking in the lot without paying. The racket is run by SoMa Developers, who have signs which are sparsely placed in their completely unlit lot, which are impossible to see, saying that it's a paid lot. At 6:30 at the end of November, it was pitch black except for the food truck. So, be warned that it's a paid lot. And when I spoke to Bryce (the owner of BigKat) tonight, he said there's nothing he can do about it, and that even he's gotten a citation for his car. I asked him why he didn't have a sheet of paper on the front of his food truck window as you walk up warning people not to park there without paying or why patrons weren't warned by him or staff. He said that there were plenty of signs in the lot (not really, Bryce). What kind of genius sets up his food truck in a lot where he knows that citations are being issued to people on a regular basis for parking there and feels that the sparsely placed warning signs (easily blocked from sight by a vehicle parking there) with no lighting at night, and thinks he has zero duty to warn his customers? He doesn't even mention it on his website! I've NEVER been to an establishment where the parking lot adjacent to it or the parking lot it was in (like this one) didn't have easily viewed warning signs of payment requirements, valet requirements, time requirements, etc. in a very prominent display. Looking at a daylight picture on Google street view, there is one sign on the east side of the entrance (we came in from the west) and one to the left of the food truck as you walk up. But again, the lot is pitch black with no lot lights and no lights on the signs. And when I've been to establishments where parking is an issue, they always warn me, (for example: "If you parked on this side of the street, move your car because it's residents only.") Had it been during the day, the signs would likely have been easily visible. But there were four of us in four different vehicles visiting BigKat for the first time, and none of us saw that it was a paid lot. So Bryce is either not too customer-focused outside of making his food, gets kickbacks from his landlord, or has been told by his landlord that part of his rent agreement requires him not to proactively warn customers about the paid parking requirement. Maybe there's another explanation, but I can't think of one. (Bryce's explanation, if legit, and I believe that it is, falls under the "not too customer-focused outside of making his food" heading.) Anyway, the burger was good (not great) and the staff seemed friendly, so there's that.

    I had the pleasure of visiting this small out-of-the-way place last night. Some friends I haven't…read moreseen in close to a decade wanted to catch up and we decided to give this spot a try. Fantastic choice! The menu is very "urban hipster" vibes. Plenty of burgers, lots of fun appetizers, charcuterie, one of my friends has some dietary restrictions and they were easily able to accommodate her needs which made us all very happy. This spot has a great bar in the front, and a smaller bar in the rear of the place. Outdoor seating as well as covered seating. Plenty of shade as well which will serve their patrons nicely in the coming Texas summer months. This is also a dog friendly dining spot, plenty of people were there with some amazing canine companions (always ask before you pet a strangers pup, it's just polite and courteous. Almost no one says No!). Assuming you don't have a dog allergy, this will hopefully be a feature. There is a relatively new apartment complex across the street and I get the feeling a lot of the people stopping in were regulars who bring in their dogs during walkies and grab a bite before heading back home, but that is just pure conjecture on my part. Either way, it was a fun inviting atmosphere. The music was nice, not too loud for my old man ears to enjoy but still present enough to be part of the evening without being intrusive. Staff was very nice, helpful, friendly, etc. Everything one would expect from a fine Texas eatery. Lots of spicier options on the menu if you're into that, but by no means anything overpowering. My guess is the owner has stock in some jalapeno growers farm somewhere and the food is all the better for it! If you're in the area already or if you're thinking of branching out for a nice new burger spot, this place is great and I will be returning. I live nearby so it'll likely become part of the regular rotation for us in the coming months. We are spoiled for choice in this area when it comes to good burgers being close to Grumps, close to Kincaid's, and close to Tommy's up on Camp Bowie. But this place competes on good burgers and if you're looking for a fun hangout atmosphere, you'd be hard pressed to find better. Easily recommended! Give them a try, I don't think you'll regret it! Cheers!

Service was on the slower side, and unfortunately I wasn't impressed with the deluxe chicken sandwich--it was overcooked and didn't live up to expectations. Overall, the wine selection and charcuterie concept are highlights, but the food and service could use some improvement.

Location is on a corner, can be kinda tricky if you've never been here before--just something to be aware of. Immediately upon walking inside I knew I was in for a good burger, it smelled like a cookout. Checking the menu they have various burger options, but no set combos, so you have to "build your own". No problem. I had a standard single-patty cheeseburger and fries with a drink, total of $14...about the going rate these days. Food took a little bit to be delivered, but I knew it was being cooked fresh as I could see/hear it cooking while I was seated. Service was excellent, as I was asked if I needed my drink topped off or would like peanuts while I waited. For a counter-order location, I was impressed. Food arrived and it was time to eat. Burger is pretty good size for a single patty, and it was fantastic! Grilled perfectly, cheese was melted, fries were crispy and hot. Definitely one of the better burgers I've had in awhile...AND I'LL DEFINITELY BE BACK. Glad I gave Grumps a try today.

Gustos Burgers N Stuff is basically a house turned restaurant and bar. You literally walk through the front door and walk through rooms. They also have a nice backyard turned into a large patio. Customer service was great. You order at the counter and when your food is ready they'll bring it out to you. The food menu is pretty small and simple. They have one starter which are the jalapeno poppers. It's your standard popper but they elevate it by glazing it with salted brown sugar honey butter. It is really good. I'm usually not big on sweet and savory combos but this works and packs just the right amount of heat. Burgers is their game. Smash burgers to be exact and the best variety in my opinion. They have 4 meat options as well as an Impossible Burger option. They come in single, double or triple meat and the price varies according to what you pick. First time here so I had to go with just a regular smash burger which is the Gusto Burger. I can't remember if I went double or triple, but either choice is good as one thin patty is never the move with a smash burger. It comes with American cheese (the only right cheese for burgers), caramelized onions, their house sauce and pickles. It comes on a buttered toasted bun which held up nicely to all the toppings. This burger was outstanding. I would put it up there as one of the best smash burgers I've had. Everyone in our party agreed. I went with tots for my side and it was a very generous portion that was cooked to perfection and seasoned nicely. I washed it down with a local beer from their nice selection of draft beers. They also have a nice variety of bottled drinks as well as cocktails. I am glad we randomly found this spot in Fort Worth because it was a solid spot to quench our thirst and fill our bellies. I will most definitely be back when in the area.

Right by TCU so it's obviously the place to go for a good smash burger that is reasonably priced for what it is. Service is kind and we got our food fast enough. The tables turn quickly but they basically have no time to wipe them down. I always love the Maine root soda selection. The smash burger is absolutely soaked in grease. That's even with two patties! As someone who loves a good smash burger more than a gourmet burger, I couldn't even finish it and felt a lil queasy. And I eat everything. The tater tots felt just as unhealthy and oily. It definitely feels like a place to use burgers to soak up the booze. Perfect if you're in college and when your metabolism can handle anything. If not, I'd recommend skipping it.

They and the chicken tenders felt like the only items that went straight from freezer to fryer, which stood out compared to how fresh everything else tasted. If I had one suggestion to take this place to the next level, it would be to offer a true build-your-own burger option with a full list of ingredients. They were very accommodating when it came to customizing their "designer" burgers, but having full control would make the experience even better. Also, while the burger meat was good, it tasted like it was cooked on a flat top. There is nothing wrong with that, but a flame grilled option with a bit of smoke and char would push these burgers into elite territory. Overall, great burgers, great vibe, and great service, with just a couple of tweaks away from being exceptional.
