Every time I drive down Far West, I spy 5280 and think to myself, "We need to check that place…read moreout." Tonight was finally the night! This burger joint fills the spot vacated by Hopdoddy when they went corporate and their quality tanked. Creative topping combos, legitimately medium-cooked patties, and friendly service. I enjoyed the aptly-named Perfect Burger, a sweet and savory combo of gruyere, bacon jam, pickled onions, and lettuce. I also snagged a few fries out of my dinner companion's basket. They were freshly fried and the right amount of crispy. The restaurant could use some sound dampening, but the din wasn't enough to deter my return. 5280 is going in the rotation!

They have a lot of fancy burgers with lots of stuff on them, but I just wanted something delicious and filling...and the Ultimate Cheeseburger was perfect! Just 2 thick quarter pound burgers, tons of cheese (cheddar, Swiss, and American cheese), plus 5280 sauce and pickles. Only thing I didn't have on it was the pickles. This burger is so flavorful and juicy and is actually making me feel better. The combination of all that cheese and a touch of sauce on both sides of the bun just made my body feel good and I'll have a good sleep tonight for sure!!! Btw, despite the restaurant being very busy when I arrived to pickup my order, it was actually ready before the quoted pickup time!

Loved the specials and the choices. Parking was pretty easy as well as there is an adjoining lot shared by several other places nearby. We sat inside, but they also have a nice patio. We ordered the stuffed avocado, burgers bombs in an egg roll shape, verde chicken taquitos, wine, and martini's. Our server was very helpful but we did have to flag down someone else to help us get more water as he would be busy for extended times. Otherwise, a good experience and I'm sure I'll be back here again for a future gathering!

Then ordered the cheeseburger with fries. The cheeseburger was a double fister and perfectly seasoned and cooked. The bun was fresh and the patty was seasoned and juicy. All the veggies were fresh. It was very tasty. The fries were seasoned just right, piping hot and delicious. The whole meal was very tasty. If you're wanting to be waited on, this place isn't it, you better get on down the road. You go up to the counter and grab a menu and place your order. They give you a cup of ice and you go get your tea. When your food is ready, you go back up to the counter to pick it up. If you need more ice, you go back up to the counter and they'll fill your cup/glass up. Basically, everything is self serve. Which is fine. Just letting you know what to expect. Don't go in and sit down at a table waiting for someone to bring you a menu and take your order. You'll be there a while...because it ain't gonna happen. The joint has a very laid back vibe. Family friendly. Had a lot of kiddos running around playing games on some of the machines as well as playing pool on the pool table. They actually have two game areas. One with a pool table and a couple of dart boards and another room that has some arcade games in it. There's seating and and they also have a deck outside. It's a pretty cool place to and enjoy some really good food. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming.

I ordered the wings and they didn't have them left in stock so the chef offered me the chicken sandwich and a side to even out the cost and we got the fried cheese curds. This was an absolute win because I would go back solely for the fried cheese curds.

In my opinion they have the best burgers in austin and it is my favorite place in Austin to get a burger, the burgers were always hot and fresh made to order, flame broiled with sweet Hawaiian style buns. The vegetables are fresh and the staff has always been nice. They have really good appetizers too, like fried mushrooms and mozzarella sticks with marinara.. if you like to drink they have a pretty good beer selection and mixed drinks. I remember they had a really good Mexican Margarita at one time and they used to have buy one get one free burgers on Saturdays but I'm not sure if they still do. All In all, it's a local neighborhood bar and grill that has a loyal following of people who have been eating there for years and there's a reason for that.

It's my kids favorite place in town so I had to come here and so glad I got to on Labor Day lol everywhere else was so busy and the place we were gonna go had an hour wait at 2pm so we headed here and yes it was packed here too but a nice lady was leaving and gave us her seat. We for our 5 people on the bench and ordered their faves. We were beyond hungry now at almost 3 for lunch and when it came out we couldn't wait to devour them. I think 3 large is perfect for us 5 peeps ha we didn't think so but we only had 2 slices leftover. Ok the verdict. I've had some amazing pizzas in my lifetime. My fave still rests in SD-Bronx pizza BUT these were pretty good and fresh from Austin. It's not a NYC slice but fluffier and thicker but I like how fresh it was. If I had a chance to order I would have picked different kinds but I let them order their faves. Oh La La is my fave mostly because it had arugula on top and I love that on pizza. I love how cheesy the pizzas are and how fresh too. The only thing is it's not as good cold. Gotta eat them piping hot and fresh. The other 2 pear and ranch chicken was good but just not my type of pizza toppings. I like all savory. Maybe a drizzle of hot honey sometimes but rather not. So these 2 had some sweet to them so I wouldn't have ordered that if I had the choice. I'd stick to pizzas like the oh la la. All in all it was a fine experiment. So glad I got to go visit and finally try. I like All Day and Homeslice in town and now I can add this one too ;) Love me a good pizza ! Glad I tried !

Been a hot minute since we've been to Taco Flats, but we came again this past week to meet up with…read morefriends who are obsessed with this place to watch some World Cup action. Honestly, we had a great time, and even though it's more like 3.5 stars, we're rounding up because we had such great service. There are good beers on tap, and one of us was a fan of the spicy margarita. The chips here are SO good. Love a chili-dusted chip! We ordered the trio of dips for the table, and while the salsa was spicy and fresh, the guac actually tasted like some of the avocado had turned a bit. The queso is delish! And while we appreciate that the dips come in to-go containers, which makes things easy, we don't love hot dips being served in plastic. Come on now, that's a bit of an own goal... For tacos, we scored with the chilango shrimp, which was tasty with a good balance of ingredients, but were bummed out by the birria taco, which was dry as a board without the consommé and had tough meat. Our daughter had a really impressive cheese quesadilla though--with a bunch of toasted cheese on its outskirts that made it extra fun and crispy. We especially want to shout out the amazing service we got. Our waitress was so sweet and fun, and was attentive without being overbearing. She seemed like she was handling a lot of the floor well. Also, the bartender was beyond gracious to our daughter who was being fussy about dessert options. All in all, a great hang with good enough food. We hope to be able to come back in another (almost) ten years :)

I ordered caldo which was $9, and it came in a cup used for side dishes like rice/beans. I wasn't expecting a massive bowl, but it was incredibly small and had only 4-5 tiny cubes of chicken.

This was for chips/queso, 1 drink each, and our meals - which was a salad and cup of caldo.

The pool tables are in another room, so I barely noticed they were there. I had a cider on recommendation, and it was delicious; my friend had a nice cocktail and a salad that looked delicious. I wish they had mushy peas with the fish and chips, and I would have ordered that. The only thing I didn't like was having to order food and drinks at the bar even if you're sitting at a table. I can see that kind of system working on a weekend when the place is crowded, but there wasn't much of a crowd when I was there, and I'm handicapped, so walking back and forth was a bit of an issue. But other than that, I'd come again, and now that I know the ordering system, I will order everything I want when I arrive.
