Bussin' Fries and Bussin' Mac
YuShan M.

We tried bussin fries and bussin Mac. The tender is crispy and solid 10/10, love that they offer no spice option so my husband can enjoy too. I personally prefer fries and finds their mac pretty basic. I would rec bussin fries but skip the mac. Would come back to try their sandwich next time.

Very tired and a little hungover, I was craving something tasty but definitely not good for me. BussinBuns popped up as something new to try so I decided to give it a go. I got the Bussin fries and here are my thoughts. Crinkly cut fries were pretty good, crispy with good substance. Chicken was crispy on the outside and still juicy inside. My main issue was that the chicken really tasted like it was over-salted. I actually added extra pickles of my own to it to break up some of the salt. Even though, I had a tough time finishing it all just because of the salt content. I must've received a bad batch with a heavy hand. Other than that, the flavor was good, I just wish the chicken wasn't over-salted.

Bussin' Combo
Shayer S.

First time here, and my initial impressions were--honestly, not great. The area is a bit of a dump, and the server wasn't particularly engaging. The music was too loud, making it hard to hear when ordering. We got the Bussin' Combo at X-Hot spice level, a mac and cheese for the kiddo, and a drink. There are a few benches to sit at, so we decided to eat there. They text you when the food is ready, which was convenient. While waiting, I noticed it's really popular for pick-up orders--it stayed busy the entire time we were there. The food took a while, but I don't mind waiting for something freshly prepared. When it finally came, we split everything among the three of us. The mac and cheese initially had spicy seasoning, which was too spicy for the kiddo. We asked them to remove the seasoning and they kindly replaced it with one without it, which we really appreciated. The mac and cheese was delicious, and the kiddo loved it. As for the chicken--it was excellent! Fresh halal chicken that was tender and juicy, yet with a crispy outer batter. The seasoning was properly spicy, just how I like it. Honestly, X-Hot was intense, so I wouldn't go higher next time, but I also wouldn't go lower either! It definitely cleared out my sinuses with all the tears and water streaming from my eyes and nose. Despite the initial poor impressions, we really enjoyed our meal and left totally satisfied. I'd definitely come back, but since they've opened a north location closer to us, we'll be supporting them there instead!

Pulled up to the Guadalupe location after a 25 minute drive, and I'd do it again without hesitation. When I say this place is bussin', I mean I'd yeet a toddler through a field goal just to get a second location in South Austin (but that's just me being selfish). We ordered the Bussin Mac and the sandwich, both were absolutely unreal. The flavor, the spice, the portion size? All 10/10. The guys in the back were moving quick, food came out hot, and the value for what you get is wild. Blows Hatti B's straight outta the water. Already planning my next trip back, and I'm not coming alone.

Tender Plate
Naomi S.

This food truck holds true to its name and is BUSSIN. The chicken is so well spiced and crispy! I've tried the tender plate and the combo plate (sandwich + 1 tender). I think the tenders are better than the sandwich because you can taste the flavor of the meat a lot better! There are a few tables for outdoor seating, but most people take it to go. I usually order online and pick it up and it's ready pretty quickly.

So, for a small stand on the side of the road, this place has some fiery in their chicken. Most people think that small stands are 50/50 and never know what you are going to get. We'll have a good gamble on this one. The owner is the guy who takes your order and he has great customer service. It was not spicy enough for me what I ordered, so he threw some more spice and precooked it for me and no charge. I was amazed. They have some picnic tables to just relax and much. Or you can take it with you to go. Over all great experience.

2. Single Bun
Dani A.

Ordered the hot chicken! The fries are seasoned oh so nice and had the perfect soft but crispy balance. The chicken was fried to perfection. I loved every bite! What a great good truck stop while in Austin. Ate in my car, service was fast, and had zero complaints.

Bussin Mac
Jacob K.

The food here was amazing. I got the bussin Mac and it was one of my favorite things I've had in a while. Every part of the bussin Mac worked so well together to create such a beautiful dish. Mac and cheese, fries, and chicken all together is a dish I had never even thought of before but this idea is ingenious. The wait was pretty long for the food 20min ish, but I think it's highly worth it and I will definitely be coming back.

Bussin single with fries
Rachael L.

Service - 3/5 How do you open a restaurant at noon and have no food prep done and it take 25 min for 2 orders. Ambiance 4/5 - a must / need to add umbrellas to the outside tables. Food - 5/5 - very fresh and flavorful! We got the bus bun singles with fries. One was hot and one was mild. Would do mild for both next time. Fries were fresh and had good seasoning. Love the bussin sauce! So the question you are asking is - is it worth the wait? Yes, BUT I would order ahead so I am not waiting there for 25 min.

Rubber chicken sandwich. Could not eat.

Note that the parking garage is free for 2 hours. The desserts themselves are usually quite good. Did not really care for the mango pancake and mango crisps (new menu item) though. The mango pancake is a mango layer about a half cm thick with about an inch of cream wrapped in a mango crepe. The crisps were an interesting powdery nougat with mango bits and a caramel like drizzle. When bit into, the nougat is cool and a bit creamy. The mango pudding was quite good with a very mango taste and a little bit of mango in the pudding itself. All the signature items (have pink crowns on the menu) are quite good from the multiple times I've come by.

Overall, a great late night dessert stop with solid flavors and friendly service. Definitely worth checking out when you're craving something sweet!

Their patio area was FILTHY: tables with dirt and crumbs, napkins on the floor, grime. It was just gross. Then, in the very small space inside where you order, somebody brought in a massive slobbering dog (NOT a service dog) and the staff were completely blasé about it. So not so much into health codes here apparently. We each ordered a taiyaki, and also got 3 macarons and 2 donuts. The ube macaron had great flavor but was completely stale, so it sucks that they are serving old food. The vanilla-passionfruit and yuzu were much better (and fresher). As for the chocolate donut, we liked the flavor but we're not the biggest fans of mochi because something the texture makes it feel like you're eating something raw. Same issue with the pumpkin donut. We do have to say that the taiyakis were awesome. We had recently tried SomiSomi and these ones were definitely better. The "fish" has a great balance of chew and crisp, and we loved the consistency of the soft serve. One of us got the pumpkin and it had such a pleasant light flavor to it that wasn't cloying or artificial. So good. One of us had to get ube and black sesame in a cup because you couldn't swirl them and both flavors were delicious, as was the unique red bean paste (which we fell for when we were in Japan this past summer). If not for the sanitary conditions and semi-catatonic workers, this would be four stars. We can see ourselves coming back again at some point, and hopefully they can train their staff to clean up, smile, and not let customers bring filthy animals into a confined space. Three stars for now.

They have Christmas lights which are very pretty, but I went at night in mid October so I wasn't facing the brutal Texas heat. They have really good hours, perfect for a late night snack. The workers were quick with our food. They call it out and you go pick it up from the trailer. I will say it looked mostly like paid parking, but we risked it & didn't pay as we were probably there for less than 30 minutes.
