This burger spot is essentially just a food truck, but the food is solid, and the service is great 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!! read more

5/5 Stars - Hands-down the best meal of my trip!** 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. read more

When I chose to eat here, I checked the reviews and there were way more positive reviews than negative, so I thought the odds were in my favor. The few negative reviews mentioned bland burgers, but the positive ones say these are the best burgers in town. I thought I couldn't be unlucky enough to be in the minority and receive bland burgers, but, boy, was I wrong! NO SEASONING IN THE PATTIES!! Not even salt? If they had just seasoned the patties like they seasoned their fries, my experience would be completely different. An easy 5 stars. But nope. A solid 2, only because of everything other than the patties. We came at around 8pm on a Saturday night and were the only customers, so maybe that should've been a sign. Also the lot felt kinda sketchy in the dark. Idk if I would have wanted to be there alone at night. Food was also ready in 10 minutes, like the guy told us. FRIES: Thick cut, well-seasoned, good. Looked like a steak seasoning on the fries. I liked it, but since they were thick, the center of the fries were bland, unfortunately. Maybe it would've been less noticeable if we ate them right away. Large serving though. My bf and I only got one combo and couldn't finish the fries with each of our burgers. The burgers are big, at 4 inches wide. THOUSAND ISLAND BURGER: I liked it at first because of the thousand island, but for the bites that didn't have it, I noticed that the patty didn't taste seasoned...like at all. I was shocked at how bland it was without the dressing. MUSHROOM BURGER: The mushrooms had no flavor, probably weren't seasoned at all. The burger, overall, was also very bland. Unseasoned patty here too. The ingredients felt fresh, but it was missing the flavor we were expecting. Really disappointing. They gave ketchup packets in the bag, but we didn't remember they were in there before finishing our burgers. It probably would've really helped, but the burgers shouldn't have needed it to be good. read more

They didn't answer the phone, my first impression was skeptical -- However when I arrived they were listening to some music and ignoring me; or I thought they were. The music was too loud maybe? Again skeptical, but I went with my gut and knew that this would probably be one of the best burgers I've ever had in my life. I ordered, very fairly priced! I did the Texas double cheeseburger minus the beef and switched it out with turkey meat, no bacon, side of fries and water. When I tell you this burger was fabulous, it was made so fresh...the fries were seasoned perfectly and I tried to force them down my throat. They were so fresh and delicious that I risked burning the top of my mouth to devour them. The burger was juicy & thick like me so it was a win win all around. It wasn't too heavy on my stomach. read more

My company ordered this for lunch for 12 of our coworkers and it was so good! Ordering was super easy and was ready on time when I arrived. Everything was packaged nicely and was very hot even after my drive. The burgers are HUGE and SO good!!! We also got fries and chicken tenders and loved everything! The guys at the truck were very nice and I liked that there was a shaded area for sitting and eating. The only thing is that the truck is kind of hard to find, they need a big sign where you turn in. read more

Bacon burger was so good! We also got the steak sandwich was was bomb! Theme bug this fries for the win as well!

If you want a fast and tasty burger, I recommend Jimmy's! Bang for your buck, quality food and great service!

Well they moved down the way on South Congress. Their new location is 6201 S Congress Ave, Austin, TX 78745. I did report to Yelp so they can update the business address. Yelpers, I am telling you this food truck has the best burgers in the Austin area. They are phenomenal and delicious. You can opt for a double patty but I will tell you try the single patty first. The double patty is a lot. Now if you have a bottomless pit or tapeworm then go for the double patty. The staff here are cool as can be, you can go with just the hamburger or do the combo. They do offer a variety of other food such as wings. Parking at the new location isn't too bad, but they are sharing with other businesses. This place you must definitely try if you like a good old fashion tasty hamburger. read more

3.5 stars. Easy to fly pass. There are other food trucks that have Mexican food and a Massage parlor is there too. A big fan keeps you cool if you are fortunate enough to get under it while you wait. I had a problem with the flies and mosquitos. Took 10 minutes like he said. As advertised BIG. FRESH AND FULL OF FLAVOR for my kids! I didn't care for my burger. My kids loved their burgers and fries! I too loved the fries and the burger was BIG but lacked flavor; I appreciated the bun was toasted; and the food stayed hot. read more

Chipotle burger with pepper jack cheese? Avocado mushroom burger? Double bacon cheese burger? Yup. They're all here and other delicious sounding Frankenstein creations. We ordered these and they were all packed and tacked pretty high. All were super tasty and loved the way the ground beef is seasoned, generously peppered and a hint of salt. The only ding is that i didn't get alot of that chipotle taste on my burger. Nonetheless, it was beautifully messy. GOLLY THEIR FRIES! Perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside with this great seasoning. Great food, great value and great service. Check out their menu and watch your mouth water! read more

A bit tucked away, but we did a quick turnabout and found it snucked away by what looks like a "happy ending" massage parlor. There was one customer in front of us around 5:30 on a Wednesday. We chose the Avocado Burger for our son, but he said the avocados were no good yet offered the Guacamole Burger, which we declined. Instead, we went with the Bacon Cheeseburger for our son, and we chose the La Toriada combo, which for $6 more came with fries and a canned soda. It took about 10 minutes to receive our food. It was hot and fresh, so we pocked at the fries on the way back to the hotel, and they were delish. Some of the best we have ever had. Unfortunately, though, the burgers did not have the same flavor. They lacked any flavor. Our bottom buns were soggy and no cheese. I wish they would have used the same seasoning on the burgers as the fries. read more

Jimmy knows how to make a burger. I tried the Chipotle and my boyfriend had the Hawaiian. They were both so good- huge juicy burgers. I ordered mine in part because I wanted mushrooms. I have high standards for mushrooms and these delivered. They were cooked perfectly. The fries were delicious and seasoned well. Jimmy was super friendly. Great prices, too. Heads up- he kindly asks you pay in cash so hit up the atm before you go. There is covered outdoor seating. read more

Good food for the most part, but they do not I repeat they do not use any gloves at all. seems somewhat unsanitary, literally has homeless people right in the back of the truck as they cook, shaking hands with them and carrying on conversations. I even witnessed the guy sweating so much as he's cooking the food is running down his hands and dropping into the grill. I was immediately grossed out that can't be right. Cross contamination all the way across the board they need to be looked into. read more

I decided to try this place because of the many positive reviews but I have to say I was very disappointed. First off they never answered the phone and I couldn't order through their website. Finally when I found the joint, the employees couldn't care less in assisting me on making a choice. I was really craving a good burger but this burger was badly made, the bread was soggy and disgusting, the meat was bland and very greasy. Gross is the appropriate word for it. read more

I'm not gonna lie, we only came here because I was super hungry after landing in the airport and I needed food stat or I was gonna freak out. I was super happy when we pulled into Jimmy's big burger to see an adorable little dining area and a little food truck. I asked them the most popular burgers, and we ended up going with the Texas big burger which had wonderful veggies on it, including onions, mushrooms, and jalapeños. It was a bit messy, but it was absolutely delicious and I'm happy happy that we also got their fresh not frozen handcut fries on the side. I would definitely have came back if there wasn't so many good places in Austin to eat. read more

The cheeseburger and fries were 5 and 3 year old approved. The Guacamole (turkey) cheeseburger was delicious Philly cheese steak was reported to be good The Patty Melt was not good. It was almost too much patty/meat and not enough seasoning/melt. Meals came out pretty fast (~5-10 mins). There was covered seating but it was obviously hot because it's 100+ degrees outside. 4 burgers/fries, 3 bottled drinks ~$55 read more

This is the hardest review I've ever written. I paused 2 days between eating and collecting my honest thoughts. I've been curious of this place for awhile in its old location. When they moved, closer to home I had to try. Got the mushroom burger. When it came out, the namesake of the place did not disappoint. The whole thing was pretty big. First bite I had a hard time getting the whole thing in my mouth, all bun. lol. The mushrooms were done very well. The actual burger. Meh. no seasoning, Meh. Where I'm torn in this review is to find a food truck, that has honest prices. Whole Thing was 8$. I can fully respect that. For the quality of the burger if they charged Austin prices of 15$ I would BLAST them. Hard. Unrelenting. Honest road side hard working food truck owner, good on ya man. Keep it up. read more

I ordered the Jimmys Big Burger and wow, i haven't had a burger this good in a long time! It was fresh and delicious! The burger patty is juicy and full of flavor, was honestly not expecting much so im glad I was pleasantly surprised. The fries were decent but not as fresh, they are seasoned very well tho. The was no wait but I came on a Thursday close to 8pm, so not sure how busy it gets during lunch or weekend. read more

Everything you want in a burger. No nonsense, just big delicious burgers. The thick cut fries are also great. Will be back

If you know me, you know that I love a good, big, greasy cheeseburger. I saw this place on FOX7 News and had to try it. I was very impressed with the double cheeseburger with fries that I ordered. Service was speedy, nice food truck, friendly staff and atmosphere. The burger was big, juicy, and very flavorful. The fries were very good and crisp. I paid about $16 for a double cheeseburger with everything on it, fries, and a drink. It was worth it. I give Johnny's Big Burger 5 out of 5 drinks. Cheers! read more

Um, yes! If you don't want the delicious barria tacos in the truck next to it and feel like a delicious burger this is the place to go! They have a good selection of burger choices, unfortunately they were out of the blue cheese I wanted but the Chiptole and Chili Cheese burgers were amazing. The fries were very good as well. The owner is nice and got me the food in under 10 minutes without calling ahead. If you go during cold weather be aware there are NO heaters. read more

Ate here today and for once I have a solid contender to hopdoddy. I think Jimmys is the best burger I've had in a long time. Ingredients were fresh , the fries were cooked to perfection. And they have wings too!! I'd recommend literally anything you read on the menu that makes you say, "hmmm that'll probably be good" cause it will be. Definitely will be back read more

This is an absolutely solid option if you want a hefty burger at a really affordable price. I got the Jimmy's Big Burger and loved it. It's a no-frills old school burger with jalapenos and mushrooms. The fries also get the job done even though they're a bit thicker than I like. If you're in the South Congress area and don't know what to eat, come here. It's that simple. read more

The last 2 times I got a combo meal here I was disappointed. The burgers I got weren't the ones I ordered and paid for - for instance I ordered a bacon cheeseburger combo but there was no bacon. Also both times the fries tasted off, kinda stale. I like supporting an independent food truck and they seem like good guys but I won't be back anytime soon. read more

Good, large burgers with lots of topping options for an incredibly reasonable price. Almost makes you wonder what meat product they are using that they are still able to turn a profit, but everything seems good quality. I wish the fries came out a little crispier, but over all I think they give a great value read more

OFF THE MAP - LITERALLY This is what I love about Texas. A humble, off-beaten path food truck, not listed on Yelp. Yet, I'd argue, Jimmys' serves up one of the most creative spice, huge, juicy, fresh, delicious burger in all of Austin (and there's no shortage of options). Gourmet without the price. It's located on an unassuming lot with aged, outdoor furniture where one-hundred years ago cowboys, cowgirls, and their horses would gather. Highly recommend. read more

I've been wanting to come here for a while but kept getting side tracked. I'm finally having to get my health back on track so I figured I needed to get in a few things as a last hurrah and this was high on the list. I stopped on the way home from work one day. It was right as they were opening so I was probably the first customer. His open light wasn't even on yet but he was ready to take my order. I got the Jimmy's Big Burger Combo and added bacon. It's a standard burger, fry and drink combo but that burger was anything but standard. It was huge. The beef was obviously real and not some compressed meat disk. It was loaded with veggies and the things that were not apart of a standard burger were the mushrooms and pickled jalapenos. Also, the onions were grilled so that definitely elevated everything. On top of all of that, the cheese was EVERYWHERE. It was done fresh and when I got it home it was still warm. On the way the smell was so great I was lucky to get pics. The burger was so juicy. All I can say is that you could tell everything was chopped and put together that day. It reminded me of the burgers from my childhood. Those awesome, juicy irreplaceable burgers your mom made that you didn't appreciate as a child because you wanted McDonald's but as an adult you're on a constant search for (because now we're all too busy and lazy to do it ourselves). The fries were really good too. They were chunky and seasoned really well. Not sure what the seasoning was but they stood up well to the wonderfully seasoned beef. Now that I've tried this place and I know the quality of burger that's so close to me, I don't think I can go anywhere else. Nothing nearby compares to this. read more
