Food!!
Zachary M.

Love this place, no matter what side of town. Sweet potato fries, tater tots, double meat, double cheese, bacon, burger, jalapeño burger they are all good.

Guacamole, Cheddar, jalapeño, mushroom burgers.

Huge Burgers size, quality service and perfect for dining with family, Longhorn Cafe; is keeping it the Texas way!

Mushroom and Swiss Burger and Onion Rings
Efftee B.

I've heard Longhorn Cafe has some of the best burgers in San Antonio so I didn't hesitate to stop in for lunch with my daughter and I wasn't disappointed. The onion rings were well seasoned and my mushroom swiss burger was incredible!

A San Antonio staple, as long as I've lived, is the Longhorn Cafe. My Tia worked at the original location many moons ago. My parents and I had lunch, and it was delicious. Something fast in an area full of chain restaurants. Mom had a milkshake made with Blue Bell ice cream, I had a turkey burger, mom had the legendary Big Juicy Burger, and last but not least, Dad had the Jalapeño Cheeseburger.

Jalapeno Cheese Burger  with Tater Tots

There's plenty of parking and usually a large crowd. The food is good and reasonably priced but nothing out of the ordinary and really no atmosphere. It took us over an hour to get a burger with tater tots.. (see photo)

Home of the ORIGINAL big juicy.

Delicious! I didn't get any photos but my Philly cheesesteak was so good - the bread was soft…read moreinside and crusty outside. I added grilled jalapeños. Would definitely order again. My kids enjoyed the wings with buffalo sauce and the plain hotdog (which was huge!). My husband has a bacon burger and chili cheese tots which were so good. Will definitely be back next time we are in town

FIRST TIME VISIT!…read more Woohoo! Been looking for chili cheese fries and happened upon a review for this place boasting fries with a homemade chili so we HAD TO stop in tonight. THE LOCATION: on the very end of a string of businesses in a strip mall that I've never been in before, so that was cool. Lots of parking, that'll never be an issue. And right off the 410. THE MENU: Burgers, dogs, Mexi-style munchies and a variety of frozen dessert-type items like shakes, frozen fruit concoctions and Italian ice. THE STAFF: I wasn't overwhelmed with a warm welcome and smiles, at least from the guys. Lol! They should really work on that. There was a sweet gal who ran out our food orders and she was great. THE FOOD: I ordered the grilled chicken sandwich deluxe with tots and a sweet tea. The grilled chicken was juicy and cooked well and the bun was lovely, slightly sweet and toasted. Overall, the sandwich could've used more flavor, like a creamy bbq spread and cheddar instead of the "Swiss" cheese that tasted more like American cheese. But overall, 7/10. The tots were extra crispy and the guy who took my order didn't take heed to my request for ranch. I was too lazy to get up again so I settled for ketchup. The sweet tea was nicely sweet and fresh, I'll be sipping this in my dreams. The hubby ordered the bacon cheeseburger with chili cheese fries and an Oreo cookie shake. The burger looked good and he ate it quick, so there's that. This guy can EAT so it surprised us both when he slowed down fast after eating that burger. Lol! He kept saying how filling it was, but then he also killed a large shake before the food arrived, so there's that. He ate most of his chili cheese fries, leaving me a few bites to sample. Not bad. I order a Coco Haven frozen dessert to go and omg is this thing delightful! Vanilla ice cream and coconut Italian ice (?) with a blue snow cone-like syrup drizzled throughout. I loved the texture of what I believed to be Italian ice. Smooth and flaky, a perfect icy dessert. OVERALL: decent eatery, the hubby said we can go back (LOL!) Shockerrrrr! But I recommend the staff tries harder to make customers feel welcomed and comfortable. The next visit will be telling.

Such a cute place with a little kid play area and lots of outdoor/indoor seating. Our waitress was AMAZING, I regret not asking her name. She was kind, generous and empathetic that we has a pair of twin toddlers with us. The food was delicious, I had the Benedict burger (substitute for turkey burger) and tots. My friend had the fish taco and bacon cheddar soup. Both were superb. I will definitely be back to this awesome place in the future. Five stars for everything especially the waitress!!!

07 Oct 2026 Oh my,…read morenot so good. The husband ordered the southwest panini with tater tots. I had the Tex-mex burger, also with tots. Husband said his was OK. My burger sounded like it should be very flavorful: queso, pico de gallo, guacamole. Sadly, it was pretty bland. Also, the burger appears smaller, yet retains a $14.95 - $16.95 price. Tots are $0.25 extra. The burger woes probably can be attributed to the high cost of beef and the use of a lesser cut of beef. I'm sure Tycoon Flats is not alone in this. On a positive note, the menu now lists traditional flat nachos, along with the pile of mess nachos. I will have to try those flat babies. Years ago, they were terrific. Trevor our server was just fine.

It tasted great and it made me excited to come back and try the other options they have! The curly fries were also seasoned well and very crisp. They might've been a bit understaffed because there was no one at the register when I walked in so I had a wait a minute or two before receiving service. But when she took my order and gave us our food she was super nice. The food also didn't take long to come out either. I very much enjoyed the outdoor area I sat at with my friends. The cars driving by were a bit loud but my friends and I still enjoyed our time and the flowers around the area were very pretty. Highly recommend and I need to come back here!!

The menu has a lot of creative across numerous options which include hamburgers as well as vegetarian and vegan options. For your beverages, options include fountain soft drinks as well as a nice beer selection and margaritas! They have limited seating inside with lots of outdoor tables with shade. Service was prompt and courteous. I definitely recommend it as a place to try out that has a "one of a kind" flair to it!!

We walked in just to "check it out" and ended up leaving after eating a REALLY GOOD BURGER. The…read moreservice was great, the restaurant was clean, and the owner took the time to explain the menu and make suggestions. We ordered Da Slippah, and it was an EXCELLENT choice. He even showed us around and introduced us to his family and staff, which made us feel right at home. The food came out quickly, and the burger was fantastic--but the true STAR OF THE SHOW was the bread. Think Hawaiian rolls, but softer, fluffier, and sized for a burger. These burgers were no joke: meat, cheese, grilled onions, and a secret sauce--and honestly, they didn't need anything else. The grilled onions and sauce were the perfect compliment, and you could taste every flavor in each bite. The drinks came in cans. I didn't notice a fountain setup, so that might be why. It would've been nice to have a cup with ice, but I didn't ask, so maybe that's an option. Overall, this place is definitely worth a try--and we will be back!

Wow!! After reading reviews on Instagram about this place I decided to try…read more Especially being Polynesian myself I wanted to see what a slice of the islands was like in San Antonio. I can't speak on the authenticity of this place as far as ethnic cuisine but I can tell you this was hands down one of the best burgers I've EVER had and I've had plenty!! It was a smash burger style. I love my burgers soft and this just melted in your mouth. Wasn't a fan of the fries but who needs them? I told my husband if I come back (we don't live in the area) then I am getting 2 burgers instead of 1 burger and 1 fry! Ordering was simple and fairly quick. The time to receive food wasn't too bad either and that burger was worth any wait anyways! Hope this place stays around!
