    Small double Cheeseburger
    Geoffrey P.

    I remember when there was just Dan's. Then there was Dan's and Fran's. Now it's just Dan's again, but I'm glad they're still around. Great burgers and fries. Reasonably priced and made to order. Breakfast is great, too!

    BLT and onion rings
    Holly O.

    Love me some Dan's. I love that you can order at the counter or have table service. Very friendly waitress. Yummy breakfast!

    Quick breakfast on the way back to Houston. Great service. The food was good, Dan's is know for the breakfast tacos and burgers. The restaurant was clean and the staff were friendly. Potato, egg and cheese taco 10/10: first off, one taco will suffice. Huge portions and very flavorful. The salsa was very good! Ala carte: Bacon, Biscuits and hash browns 10/10

    Bacon cheeseburger with sautéed onions and jalapeños. PERFECT!
    Charity A.

    My burger and curly fries were so tasty! Very pleased! Came out within 10 minutes and was fresh and hot! Thank you for sautéing my onions and preparing the perfect bacon cheeseburger. Mylasia was so helpful taking my order.

    Jalapeno Cheeseburger with Fries
    Steven L.

    Was in the area and wanted to pick something up on the way home and the Dan's sign popped up. Jalapeno Cheeseburger - good quality burger, the cheese was nice and melted, the buns were well toasted, the ingredients tasted fresh overall. Pretty top tier for fast food burgers. Fries - fries were too soggy, and unseasoned. I really should've opted for the curly fries because I accidentally got one of those in my bag of regular fries and it was much better.

    Back again and this place is so fantastic!! Top-notch in appearance, cleanliness, Service and food!! Thanks

    I finally made my way to Dan's Hamburgers and now see why this place is an institution in Austin. I won't pretend to know all the gossip from back in the day between Dan's and Fran's but what I can say is walking into this place is like being transported back in time, in the best way. I was not expecting the diner vibes and overall charm this place brought to my day, but it was welcomed! Their staff was very friendly and made it feel a step above the typical fast food ordering experience. Same goes for the food. It's no Jewboys but that's the point right? It's a better, local option compared to your Burger Kings, McDonalds and even (gulp) Whataburgers of the world (TX don't hate me for that last one, but I'm going to Dan's!) I will be back to try their breakfast and would recommend anyone that considers themselves an Austinite to give it a go... after all, it's probably been here long before you!

    Curly Fries and Regular Fries
    Vicki C.

    We are here twice while traveling through Austin! Staff was very friendly. Food was cooked fresh so wait time was a little longer than the usual drive thru experience but that was OK- worth the wait for hot and fresh food! Loved the curly fries! Burger was great!! Diner inspired vibe & decor inside the restaurant. At least hit the drive thru while in Austin - and don't mind the wait! Relax and live in anticipation! (The wait was only about 15 min)

    Western omelette and #12 - Biscuits & Sausage*biscuits
    Craig C.

    This morning we went for breakfast as we had not been here for breakfast in awhile and it was great. We had western omelette hash browns wheat toast and coffee with biscuits and gravy with sausage and egg. It was hit fresh timely and we were waited on quickly and efficiently. The area was clean and well kept. A great place for breakfast and lunch for sure.

    Perfect little dinner spot! What they serve they do well which is burgers and breakfast. It has a cute retro diner feel that I love.

    Cheeseburger and Onion Rings
    James K.

    Just happened to be in the area and it was lunch time... so why not give them a try! I didn't feel like sitting down but in hindsight, I might have eaten sooner. I did the drive thru and I've read other comments where people have indicated the long wait and mine was exceptionally long. I've never been before so I kept it simple with a cheeseburger, onion rings and a shake. I was taking this home but decided to try the onion rings in the car. They are very good but a bit overcooked. The chocolate shake was epic! When I reached home and was able to take a bite of the burger, it was good. The bun is nothing special. Just something I could buy from a local grocery store. The burger itself was good in size and seemed to be quality beef. I ordered it with everything and it was delicious but it wasn't the best burger I've ever had. Overall... it's a burger. If I was nearby and hungry, I would probably try again but dine in. The whole point of the drive thru is convenience and speed. No speed going on at this place. Maybe not overcook the onion rings; they are good and I would order them again, but they just seemed too crunchy and seemed like very little onion inside and the only taste I remember is the fried coating.

I didn't feel like a burger though so I got the Classic Coney hotdog which is full of Detroit style chili (thick meat chili with no beans), and loaded with red onions and shredded cheddar cheese, then topped with mustard. It was delicious and filling. It Truly was like a dog you'd get at a Coney's in Detroit, MI. IYKYK. Then I heard you had to try the latke here, so I got Bubbe's OG Latkes which is 2 round thick potato pancakes! It came with sour cream and Smutz smoky aoli sauce on the side. I tried it both ways and it was good. But really it was best with that cold creamy sour cream that goes so well with the potato flavor. They also have great drinks which are refillable for free while you dine in. And I love the chill vibe and decor. Great artwork and old photos. Very funky!

    This burger spot is essentially just a food truck, but the food is solid, and the service is great…read more The food truck itself is nice and clean, and there's a big signage out front. There is some picnic bench seating if you care to eat there, but each order is ready to take home You can also find a menu and other information posted on the outside. The menu mostly offers burgers, but there are a couple other offerings like a cheesesteak, partner, etc. The staff were very friendly and precessional. I really appreciated that they double checked everything in our to-go bags against what we ordered just to make sure we had everything. Everything was bagged, and the orders had the individual order and special order requests written on top Everything tasted great. The burgers were classic burgers, slightly messy, but very flavorful. The fries weren't quite as crisp as I like, but they were seasoned well and tasty Some tips: Consider ordering online so you can have your meal ready when you arrive The burgers/entrees don't come with fries, so, consider ordering a couple fries to share. One order of fries is more than enough for 2 people to share. To do this just make your meal a combo on the ones you want to have fries. Combos also come with a drink, but it's not a fountain drink it's in cans which they also bag for you Cheers!!

    5/5 Stars - Hands-down the best meal of my trip!**…read more I'm in town for a conference and have been eating out every single day--hotel breakfasts, chain spots, random takeout--and honestly, nothing has come close to what I had at Jimmy's Big Burger tonight. This was by far the best meal I've had all week. The cheeseburger was outstanding. The bun was perfect--soft, and held everything together without getting soggy. The meat had incredible flavor, juicy and well-seasoned, and the divine (I'm assuming that's the special sauce or topping?) absolutely blew me away--it took the whole thing to another level. The fries were exactly how I like them: thick-cut, tender, not overly crunchy or crispy, and seasoned to perfection. Every bite was spot-on. Service was excellent too--friendly, attentive, and quick without feeling rushed. Shoutout to the team for making a conference-weary traveler feel right at home. If you're anywhere near Jimmy's, do yourself a favor and go. I'm already thinking about coming back before I leave town. So well done--thank you! Highly recommend. 10/10 would eat again.

You could really taste the freshness and care they put into every bite.

The flavor and quality that made me come back before just weren't there this time, which was super disappointing. I honestly left feeling a little sad because I used to go there all the time for that exact reason and took a 30 min drive to try it again. On the positive side, the staff is still amazing. Everyone was really friendly, and that part hasn't changed at all. And I did grab one of the locally made sweets from the fridge, and that was actually really good. I'm really hoping they go back to the quality they used to have, because Wholly Cow used to be one of the best burger spots around.
