Classic burger
Mariana G.

I got the classic burger, a cheese burger that comes with lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles, jalapeños, ketchup, mustard and mayo (which I customized to remove the mustard and the pickles). It was delicious and I devoured it. I also got two churros for dessert. I think they were supposed to come with chocolate or caramel dipping sauce, but even without the sauce these churros were delectable. The sweet and crispy exterior coated in cinnamon sugar contrasted with the soft interior filled with vanilla bean pastry cream makes for a truly tasty dessert.

Burger place

This place rocks. Just a food truck, but more than that. They serve some of the tastiest burgers I have ever had. And I only tried their double cheeseburger loaded minus the pickles. It was fantastic. Healthy half pound of beef as expected done right, not too salty, or over cooked. It is a new location on Guadalupe and 37th street just half a block from where I live. I was shopping down the strip and before I passed by I smelled a fantastic mix that made me stop by. Glad I did. Double cheeseburger, fries, loaded fried chicken sandwich for just $24 with nice tip... you can't go wrong. Just hope they stay there.

Onion Ring Burger

Our community in San Marcos is having an event and the Downtown Burgers food truck is one of the vendors invited to sell/serve food during the 2-day event. My wife, upon reading about burgers available from a food truck perused their website and made plans to go try their burgers after we played golf in the morning. Not reading the fine print on the announcement, we showed up for burgers at 1:30 PM only to find out the Downtown Burgers food truck wasn't scheduled to be there until 3 PM. Hungry and a bit frustrated, we drove back home where it's nice a cool (low to mid 90s out there) and waited until 3 PM to head back to our community's social hub. The truck arrived late and they experienced issues with power so by the time they were ready to take orders, it was closer to 4 PM and I was HANGRY. I just kept chanting this better be worth it. Once my wife placed our orders (Onion Ring burger for her and La Mananera burger for me...we also ordered onion rings and fries to go with our burgers), the cooks were fairly efficient and we were digging into our burgers in no time, inside an air conditioned building. The burgers were good AND messy...the fries and onion rings were fine. The burgers were juicy and flavorful. Why only 3 stars you ask? I guess the biggest hangup I had was the lack of value...$10 for a burger out of a food truck! That's more expensive than most burgers at Hopdoddy and in my humble opinion not as good as Hopdoddy's. I would rather see the $10 for burgers to include fries or onion rings. Lunch for 2 without drinks came out to $30 with tip.

Red food truck hidden in the back of a parking lot. Good burger, but curious if it's because of all the ingredients on the burger.

Fantastic food & guy at the counter is very nice. Probably the best tocos I've had so far

1/4 lb. Classic Burger Combo
Brandon Y.

Located in a rig across the street from the Austin Convention Center in downtown, this is probably a very convenient location to walk to for tourists and out-of-towners. The wait for your food is typically about 10 minutes from when you put in an order. I had walked past this place so many times on my way to other spots in downtown and figured I eventually had to try it. Wanting to give them the best shot, I decided to try their classic 1/4 lb burger. Overall, the burger wasn't bad and will definitely satisfy you if you are hungry and craving a burger. The fries, which were well-peppered, weren't bad either. Overall, it wasn't bad, and works in a pinch, but is a bit overpriced at $10 for a burger and fries.

Tasty burger and quick service. Almost had to take a bath afterwards...that's how you know it's good.

Best burgers in Austin. The crew from the show swarmed the place and everyone had a great meal. Fried pickles were delicious and the burger was perfect.

I love the proximity yo the conference center as i was attending SXSW Edu. The burger and fries were reasonably priced and hit the spot and allowed for an outside stroll between sessions.

Solid burger spot! Burger was cooked perfectly and had fresh toppings. The fries were hot, crispy and well seasoned. Fast friendly service. Ordered thru grub hub and it was ready right after I arrived. Plenty of outdoor seating and they play good jams.

I prefer the mini but they're sold out a lot which shows you how spectacular this place is. My go to is the nutty valentine. The donut is always warm, fresh, and crispy. And the toppings of Nutella, cinnamon, and strawberries adds dimension & the perfect story. There is plenty of patio seating and lots of parking outside. There can be a line on the weekends and they tend to sell out so keep that in mind. The staff is friendly and service is quick!

Lives up to the hype. Here's the thing--You may end up waiting quite some time for your food…read more However, if you give yourself the time to wait, you will not be disappointed. I had the Migas taco and the La Reyna taco. Both were excellent. I loved the veggies combination on the La Reyna taco. I would want to stop in and eat these every week if I lived in Austin. And the hot sauce was on point, both the green and the red. My husband had the Grilled Fish taco and the Grilled Steak taco. He couldn't decide which he liked better, but mentioned that the steak itself had amazing flavor. Do yourself a favor: free up two hours on your day off; order some tacos; order a Desnudo coffee or matcha or hibiscus tea and enjoy the tree-shaded outdoor dining area while you wait for some truly outstanding tacos.

The shrimp is sautéed in this extremely flavorful and spicy chili paste and it is an explosion of flavor in your mouth. The fish taco is also absolutely amazing. For the vegetarians, their cauliflower taco is great. And for the meat lovers, they're steak and Barbacoa taco is off the charts. Their beverages and juices freshly made in house are also always hit. Hard to find such fresh juices at that price point anymore.

Austhentico is a GEM. This food truck is permanently parked next to a Belgian bar downtown, and…read morebonus..there's actually parking right next door. What a foodie find. This tastes like it came straight out of someone's granny's kitchen in SPAIN. D E L I C I O U S. The menu isn't all vegan, but they've done an incredible job offering both traditional and vegan versions without losing any soul. Am I in heaven? Yes. The owner makes it a point to connect with customers, which was refreshing. You can tell this is passion-driven. You order via QR code at your table, then pick up out back when it's ready--easy. Everything is prepped daily in a Commercial kitchen and finished on the truck, and he proudly shared that the ingredients, spices, even the meats are sourced from Spain. Vegan paella? Incredible. Patatas bravas with vegan aioli? My personal favorite, sooo good. My husband loved the jamón serrano sandwich. And whatever you do, don't skip the sourdough rye with tomato spread. They also mix in a few Belgian items to match the bar, which adds to the whole European vibe. I already need to go back for the vegan fideuà and bombas..they were sold out, which tells you everything. Do yourself a favor: try this spot and support a small business that's clearly fueled by passion and flavor. Yum.

The croquetas and bravas are the best in Austin - better than Kalimotxo, San Gines, and El Raval. They were extremely delicious and the perfect texture and size. The paella was about as good as you could expect from a food truck. The tortilla was our least favorite - taste was good, but wasn't as liquidy as you'd expect in Spain. Overall, the food was great. We would definitely go back! Thank you for keeping this Spanish food authentic.

I sat down yesterday to eat a $13 lunch special: brown stew chicken, rice and peas, steamed…read morecabbage, and plantain, and bit into a piece of chicken that was refrigerator cold. Not lukewarm. Cold. I bit it a second time because I genuinely couldn't believe it. Meanwhile, the rice was so hot it was still visibly steaming from what I can only assume was a microwave, drowned in a watery gravy I never asked for, next to the old cabbage with solidified liquid. I brought the plate back to the counter, explained the chicken was refrigerator cold, and asked them to reheat it. I'm writing this today with an upset stomach. I wish I could say this was a one-time issue. It's not. I've been trying this restaurant, on and off, for over 15 years, and I kept giving them chance after chance because I wanted so badly for it to be good. I first met the owner when he ran a food truck, before the restaurant existed. I was excited; there weren't many Jamaicans in Austin at the time, and I was happy to support one. The rice and peas was so bad I threw the plate away. Years later, I tried the restaurant location. I ordered curry goat, took it to my car, and found the meat flavorless, fatty, and poorly trimmed; basically inedible. I threw it away in the parking lot. I later ordered oxtail through Uber Eats: flavorless again, poorly prepped meat, and an actual rock in the rice and peas. I tried introducing the child to Jamaican food with one of their beef patties, and it was dry and flavorless. Yesterday I ordered the "safest" thing on the menu, brown stew chicken, specifically because I no longer trust myself to spend real money on anything more ambitious here. I still got food that had clearly been microwaved and reheated unevenly, served with a piece of chicken that was still cold. Are we really selling microwaved leftovers out of an established restaurant with a huge kitchen? Jamaican food is something our culture takes real pride in. This restaurant has had a decade and a half to get it right, and instead I've watched it consistently cut corners on seasoning, on prep, and now on basic food safety. I don't say this lightly: if you want real Jamaican food, this isn't where you'll find it, and depending on the day, what you're served may not even be handled safely.
