Classic with cheese
Hannah L.

Ambiance: The service is incredible! You feel welcomed as soon as you walk through the door. I also like that you can see them preparing the ground beef, which makes everything feel fresh and transparent. The food comes out pretty quickly, and the prices are standard. Mango Lemonade: This drink is really great. The mango flavor is light and not overpowering. It's so refreshing and not too sour or too sweet, it honestly has the perfect balance. Classic with Cheese: I loved the sauce inside the burger. The patties are pretty thin, so it might not be filling for some people. However, the burger tastes super fresh and high quality. Regular Fries: The fries were great! They had the perfect crisp and were nice and fresh.

I finally stopped in to try a burger. I read all the reviews on how they had a great burger. I was a doubter but no more. The double spicy is excellent. The sauce makes it a bit messy but dang it is good. I'll ask for extra jalapeños next time. The seasoned fries are good. Nothing spectacular but still good. I can't decide if it's better than Whataburger. I still rate Top Notch's Longhorn Burger as best in town. The price is reasonable and it definitely is a very good burger. I am a believer and will be back. Fast service at counter and not a long wait after ordering. Definitely a great experience!

Seasoned fries

Very good burger. The double classic was cooked to perfection. Nice juicy patties, soft bun, fresh veggies, plenty of gooey cheese. The seasoned fries were excellent. Service was ok.

I was passing by this area after picking Thing Two up from ACC. I had no idea there was a Buddy's location this close to me. Therefore, this meant I had to stop immediately and get a burger. For those who aren't aware, this is Buddy's third location. The original location is in Austin, the second in San Marcos and the latest location is now in Round Rock. This is a locally owned burger shop that specializes in made to order Angus hamburgers. For this visit, I went through the drive-through as opposed to going inside. It should be noted that those who desire libations as opposed to lemonade and soda, dining in may be the best option as beers on tap may be purchased inside. Spicy with cheese & fries This is my go-to burger when coming to Buddy's. Aside from the burger being fresh, the added jalapeños, "spicy smack sauce" and pepper jack cheese really gives this burger an edge over the stereotypical burger place. This burger is savory, slightly spicy and lean. I added bacon to this burger for an additional $1. As these burgers are made to order, items such as grilled onions, grilled jalapeños and bacon can be added for an additional price. If purchasing a meal, fries come with the meal but it is possible to go with the seasoned fries, which is what I did. The seasoned fries are slightly salty, crispy and have a slight crunch. If you are feeling really froggy, you'll put your fries in-between your burger and enjoy the burger and fries simultaneously! Drive-through experience I developed a rapport with Isaac who took my order in the drive-through. He was pleasant, funny and upbeat. When in the drive-through I advised Isaac I had my kids in the car and wasn't trying to "order the whole menu". With my meal, I ordered one chocolate shake but to my surprise, when I pulled up to the window to pay, Isaac gave me two shakes as opposed to one for The Things to enjoy. Needless to say, the extra shake went over well with all of us. The burger, fries, sweet chocolate shake and positive vibes coming from Isaac made this expirence 5 star!

Amazing shakes

This place is amazing and one of the best things that make this place is mr.John michael, the manager that they have on site here. At the end of the day, it's the best burger's fries in shakes, just like he says, he just had such a presence about him and made everything taste so much better here. Very casual ambiance, kind of like your hometown burger joint, I would highly recommend anybody to go to this location in specific things. Just so you can see the aura that john michael has inside of this restaurant.

Yum yum! GO GET THE NUMBER ONE AND THE NUMBER four!!!

Spicy Burger with cheese and seasoned fries

Wow! Wow! Wow! Let's just say I stayed craving another burger with fries the next day. It was that delicious!!! The food was so fresh and made with love I'm assuming lol quality, freshness was on the dot. Service was fast and the workers were great. The atmosphere was also a plus, it was open and welcoming, clean, family friendly, and clean bathrooms. I truly do appreciate how clean they were for being a fast food place. Anyways. If your craving a burger, i definitely recommend here

Mango lemonade

You cannot go wrong with Buddy's!! The service is outstanding, and the menu isn't huge, but when you have the perfect burger, it doesn't need to be! This new location is perfect for grabbing lunch or dinner on your way home or heading to practice!

I'm not really a burger person unless I cook them at home from scratch but Buddy's is definitely a great option when you're drained and don't feel like making them. I absolutely loved my burger and fries. These burgers remind me of a hole in the wall back home in Missouri. The burger was sooo good and it didn't take long for us to get our order. I didn't try a milkshake but my daughters did and love them. This place is clean and customer service is great.

staff was chill. Food was really good and the seasoned fries are really good. very clean and they played some good music and nice atmosphere.

Double spicy with seasoned fries and Pepsi.

The burgers were juicy with a nice char, and smackin sauce had a nice kick to it. I would probably get extra jalapeños on the spicy burger, but thats just me. Seasoned fries were recommended by employee and it was definitely worth it. We ordered the peanut butter chocolate, oreo, and chocolate milkshakes- all a hit. Service was welcoming and kind the entire experience. We would definitely go again.

Maybe the hype set my expectations higher, but i was not impressed... their sweet tea wasn't even giving me cavities... Burger was ok, but the buns look like they bought the cheapest available, fries were ok.. the veggies were fresh and crisp.. Not saying they're bad, but definitely had much better for the price The employees were very friendly and coming around asking if everything was good. I came here before thee lunch rush, so it was nice to order and get my food within a few minutes. The restaurant itself is nice, big windows to let the natural light in. I will have to try their shakes, but will not be fighting the crowd to eat here again.

So, I finally caved and checked out Buddy Burgers, because nothing says "live a little" like chasing a burger hyped harder than a Marvel movie trailer. I went with the #2 -- the Spicy with cheese -- because I enjoy living on the edge... and apparently, suffering. Let me tell you, "spicy" wasn't just a suggestion -- it was a full-blown lifestyle. This burger came in hot, literally. It had enough grilled jalapeños to make me question every life decision that led to this point. My tongue was sweating. My ancestors were sweating. Somewhere, a fire alarm went off and I'm pretty sure it wasn't in the restaurant. Now, the seasoned fries? Let's just say the seasoning team went a little Tony Montana with the salt and spices. They were good, but I had to dig for the potato like I was on an archaeological dig. Was it the best burger I've ever had? Nah. But it was solid -- flavorful, juicy, spicy enough to be illegal in three states. I'd definitely come back once the opening-weekend madness chills out and the line isn't halfway to the moon. Final verdict: Good burger, fun experience, and I'm now on a first-name basis with the fire extinguisher in my kitchen.

I didn't want anything hot because it's been so hot so I ordered the pink smoothie and avocado toast which had chopped hard boiled egg on the top and a seed And grain piece of bread that was not toasted, which is fine with me, but it was still nice and firm. Personal preference I like the bread thicker but that's super nitpicking because the flavor was phenomenal and out of this world. EVERYTHING was super fresh, produce in a restaurant whose foundation is produce is a massive pet peeve of mine). If you want to make me eat fruits and vegetables at least make sure they're fresh lol Anyway, I've been trying different smoothie places in my area and they have been OK not anything that I would stop and write a review about but I found my smoothie place !!!! can't wait to try more items on the menu

And ALWAYS cooked FFRESH! Also for my pescatarians or vegetarians there's options so you can enjoy tacos like everyone else and they taste just as good. I only take one star off because the cashier didn't give me the furiosa, she gave me el differente which is still good but the furiosa is my favorite and the tables were not cleaned or wiped off, but I get it they were extremely busy for lunch. This is an Austin staple that I think anyone needs to try and all ther location are very consistent!

So got a steak taco, barbacoa taco and a chicken quesadilla. The staff was extremely nice. I explained I couldn't have any cross contamination with pork she made sure the kitchen knew, which was greatly appreciated. So the barbacoa was ok, steak was very good and the chicken in the quesadilla was probably my least favorite only because I'm not sure if it's meant to be grilled, fried or simmered. But the chicken seemed like it was boiled then put in the quesadilla and fried on the flat top which would have been fine but the chicken seemed quite dry. Maybe I came in at a bad time not sure because when I had it at the truck I was dreaming about it for weeks so maybe it was just not my day but over all it wasn't bad and the 3 star is more because my expectations were set based on the other location. I am definitely going to be back to chase that first time flavor again but this time it just missed the mark unfortunately.

Teapioca is a chain so when I spotted one in this shopping center late last night I went in to check it out. The customer service was unbelievably awful. I walked up to the cash register where the only menu was and looked through briefly to make sure nothing changed since my last visit. After only being there a few seconds the cashier rudely said "are you going to order ma'am?". Since when is that ever in a script to say to customers? I was so taken aback I wanted to leave but I quickly ordered and still tipped well, after which her attitude suddenly became friendlier. I went back to look at the menu again and she asked "would you like to order anything else?" I said "no, I want to finish looking at the menu since I was rushed". The drink wasn't even good. Lychee jelly tasted sour and bad. It is highly unlikely I will give this establishment any more of my business and I recommend that others go elsewhere.
