Outstanding smash burger. Two perfectly cooked smashed patties, grilled onions, pickles, oozing American cheese and a perfect soft bun. The zesty sauce is a perfect complement. The onions strips with the zesty sauce are also nice. The only hassle here is you have to buy your drinks from St Elmo's bar next door and they are gouging the patrons. $3.50 for a canned soda. Come on. Service was fast. read more

Heaven between a burger bun. It's a little food truck nestled in with a couple of others and next door bar serving up cold beer to go with your burger. Super quick service and plenty of outdoor picnic tables if you want to dine there. read more

Patty Palace is going up on the rec list for both me & Austinites as well as friends/family coming in to visit. First off, I love the Yard area and if you're having a few beers while playing pickleball, the next logical step is to get some smashburgers! The guy in the truck was super friendly and i like that you can get a combo with fries. As for the smashburger, just hit the spot! Good sauce too. It's one of those places that's hard to mention because just thinking about it makes you want to head over. read more

Craving a no-nonsense burger, and saw this recommended. I am simple I love smash burgers. Atmosphere: Counter-service inside the St. Elmo area, easy in-and-out with plenty of nearby parking. It's the kind of spot you hit before/after a beer run--order, crush a burger, and get on with your day. Very family friendly. Food: Kept it classic: a double smash with fries. Thin patties with lacy, crispy edges and a proper beefy bite; American cheese melting into the seams, pickles/onions for snap, and a soft bun that holds but doesn't fight you. The sauce is divine, certainly a bit more tang and kick (tastes like extra pickle sauce) but it works so well with the perfectly done onions. If you're deciding between single vs. double, go double and thank yourself later. Menu stays tight--single, double, vegan, plus fries or onion petals--which I appreciate. Service: Quick counter order, faster hand-off than I expected for dinner rush. Friendly crew, no upsell pressure. Wrap-up: Dialed-in smash burger, hot fries, zero fluff. If your ideal burger stop is, single or double? Done, this is it. read more

While attending a Yelp event at St. Elmo last night, I noticed this glorious purple and white food truck selling smash burgers, and one thing I know about myself is my need and desperation for a burger if they smash it. Patty Palace, take me away. Like most food trucks in the big '25, you scan the QR code to place your order so the cook can keep churning out quality burgers instead of slowing down to take orders. My order was simple: a single burger and fries. I placed my order at 8:55 pm, and by 9:10 pm, alongside the other St. Elmo Brewing customers and other Yelp homies, my burger was ready. I sat down at the picnic table right across from the food truck and locked in. After one flash photo for proof, I easily destroyed their Palace Burger. I personally believe food should not be taken to go. It is important to eat it immediately upon receiving it. It's just a way of life. Inside are your classic burger toppings: the finest American cheese, grilled onions, pickles, mustard, and sauce on a glorious potato bun. Of the few things that stayed with me through my picky eater career is yellow mustard, and I don't even notice it. The whole thing was a banger. The fries were extremely crispy on the outside and soft on the interior. A perfect fry. On the side was their house sauce, which was very Thousand Island-esque. I dipped the fries in it, and it elevated them. A quality fry doesn't necessarily need sauce, but I took the sauce here and enjoyed it because their fusion just worked so well. It's nice to know that St. Elmo Brewing Co. has two quality food trucks on their premises, both doing chicken and burgers at the highest level.

Patty Palace serves a REALLY good veggie burger! The patty is definitely homemade. The person working was confused when I asked for the regular burger toppings with cheese and mayo and everything just on a vegetable patty, but I explained I was not vegan, and he agreed to do it. The onions smashed into the burger is delicious and the edges still get nice and crispy like a real smash burger. It is pretty greasy, but for a good veggie burger that is very reminiscent of a real burger, this is the best i've had. The food is made fresh to order so there is a bit of a wait. Stop in St. Elmo Brewing and grab a beer to enjoy outside while you wait. My fiance loved their smash burger and the prices are really reasonable. We will definitely go back again! read more

This review is for the truck on Sixth located at Zilker Brewing. The menu is limited which is fine by me because too many choices can sometimes be overwhelming. They have fries, onion petals, a single or double burger, and a vegan burger. The burgers come with cheese, grilled onions, sauce, pickles, & mustard. The burger bun is perfectly sauce yet holds the burger together without becoming soggy. Smash burgers have been all the rage the last several years and I'm still here for it. Especially when they're cooked up as good as Patty Palace. Whatever they season the patties with amplifies the smash burger experience with a bam! The hand cut fries are lightly seasoned and cooked with a nice crisp on the outside and soft potato inside. For food truck service, I'm gonna say they excel. Fast & friendly. This truck is well worth checking out. read more

A very solid smash burger after sampling adult beverages throughout the yard for a Yelp event. This was a perfect cheeseburger and one patty was plenty you can get a double and vegetarian option. The burger was dressed with sauce, grilled onions, pickles and onions. I liked how the bun soaked up all the flavors without falling apart. The hamburger had that crispy layer on the outside that gave it tons of additional flavor. I also ordered onion petal which was pretty solid as well but i tend to prefer onion rings. Service was great and it didn't take to long to get my order.There are picnic tables right in front of the food truck and its located right in the St. Elmo brewery compound. Definitely a solid choice at St. Elmo if you don't want spicy boys. read more

Delicious double smash burgers! We came here on a whim Friday night! Simple ordering from the menu with a QR code... the options are kept to a minimum, but when they know what they are good at, there is no need for a laundry list of options to choose from! We also got a basket of fries and onion petals. I do wish the onion petals were a little bit more thin to get more crispy on the outside but they were still good!! read more

Great smash burger food truck at st Elmo brewing. St Elmo has a great seating patio inside and out and also spicy boys is here. Patty palace is top 5 burger in Austin in my opinion, can't go wrong while enjoying a beer. 8.7/10 burger read more

The smash burgers with a side of fries are so delicious from this food truck. They prepare them pretty quick if you come in person. Or you can pre-order online and pick them up. If you decide to stay and eat, you have options to sit outside or go sit inside St Elmo and grab yourself a cold beverage. Parking can be limited but don't let that detour from this delicious burger! It's definitely worth trying out! read more

The service is pretty fast and the burger is delicious! Everything you'd expect from a Smash burger spot. The fries & onion rings are okay. Kinda cool to sit outside but also lots of flies haha! read more

Holy hot dog, yall! I was referred by my friend Justin who works within the Yard complex. I'm so glad I took his recommendation and tried the specialty hot dog from Patty Palace. I just finished one of the best dogs I've ever had, and I'm from the dirty south SC, where a hot dog is considered a decent breakfast. The flavor, presentation, Austin holding it down at the register...is why I'll be back tomorrow and the next day. You guys are doing it RIGHT! The burger is now on deck. Thank you guys read more

Love love love! I had been procrastinating visiting this place though it was highly recommended because I didn't want to go to a food truck. My goodness was I wrong to wait so long! This area is so fun with a winery, breweries, pickleball courts, lovely outdoor seating, and so much more. Parking was a little difficult but I went on a Friday night so that's expected. The man at Patty Palace was great and the food itself was too. I wouldn't say it's the best smash burger in Austin but it's high up there for sure. And the fries were great read more

Awesome smash burger! I got a double smash burger with cheese, pickles and smash sauce (they don't have lettuce but you could add onion and mustard) The flavor of the meat was good and the sizing of the patties were good as well. The pickles were juicy and had a crunch (pickle lover approved) and the bun was good. Also grabbed a basic of fries and they were seasoned well and were crispy. YUM all around! read more

The one thing that surprised me was how filling the single was. We ordered the onion petals and the fries. Everything was amazing to us. We were able to visit when there was a smaller crowd and then noticed they were located next to a brewery which was nice as they both shared the outside tables. We walked off our food by going to the end of the area located at the Yard. There are several places on my list, however, I'd come back for the smashburger again :) 10/18/2024 read more

Delicious, hits the spot burger! Thin lacey pattys, definitely recommend getting a double. Perfectly melted cheese with a balanced flavor coming from the onions and mustard. Just a solid, reliable, pleasing burger. You just order from a QR code, just one person manning the truck. It came out pretty timely! Simple, straightforward ordering process and burger! The truck has plenty of picnic tables to sit at and is connected to st elmo's for plenty of drink options and potentially live music. read more

Had one of their double smash burgers with some fries and I must say this is a fantastic smashburger especially at the price point when others are charging you and arm and a leg!

I'm a little sad that Double Friendship closed down because I loved the Pandan Creme Brulee but Patty Palace replacing it is a welcome addition for me. Also located in St. Elmo Brewing, Patty Palace, the no-frills burger food truck by the same folks who do one of my other favorite food trucks, Spicy Boys, serves my current favorite go-to burger. I love a good burger. I love it with a refreshing beer for lunch or as a greasy savior before bed to curb a hangover from a long night of drinking. Nothing else can satisfy a burger craving when it comes. If it's not the strange nostalgic comfort of a McDonald's cheeseburger, more and more I just prefer a no-frills smash burger where I can just taste the meat and cheese without any filler. I spent years trying out different toppings -- lettuce, tomato, jalapeños, fried egg, pineapple, beets -- or even how best to have onions in it -- raw, grilled, caramelized, crispy onion strings, or fried whole onion rings. All of this to say, that I found my way back to simplicity of focusing on the meat, cheese, and bun, while removing anything that would detract from those. I personally find that lettuce and tomato take away from the flavor of the meat and I'd rather just eat a salad on the side. There is no other burger on the menu other than an in-house made veggie burger. The only things they add to the burger are grilled onions, pickles, and mustard. The meat is crisp and flavorful, and the overall result is so satisfying. It can be on the salty side but that's what the beer is for. read more

Patty Palace - Burgers Near Me - Austin, Texas

This place was recommended as a top burger place. Many have raved about them so I opted to check them out one weekend. Overall it was pretty good. Got the double cheeseburger with the grilled onions, small fries, and drink which is one of their combos. Price was somewhat premium - I think around 11-12 bucks. The burger was pretty good, didn't really have a wow-factor, but it was good yet patty was slightly salty and I did not get enough grilled onions on it. I asked - and you can ask for extra onions, for which next time I will, but that was disappointing. Fries were pretty good. It's a small size w/ the combo but did the job. Still feel it's slightly premium priced but it was solid. Service was good and got my food relatively quick. I must stay - after I finished my burger about 45 min pass and I started to feel slight queezy. Maybe it was the grease from the burger - it had some but wasn't too greasy - but I just felt slightly off. Nothing majorly bad and did not get sick, but somewhat similar to when I eat a Mickey D's double cheeseburger. That's why I reviewed them as "Ok". Otherwise this would be a 3.5-star to 4-star experience. If they were offering a coupon I would go back in an instant and ask for extra onions. I am not ruling these guys out but I am not rushing back to satisfy my burger fix as I do want to try other burger places and compare. They are not my fave, but they were still pretty good. Compared to that other "N" Acronym place on E. 6th - I'd say you get slightly more meat here, slightly better price, so I would rate them 7.5/10 range and they are worth a shot. read more

This was one of the best burgers (smashed or otherwise) I've EVER had. It's less than 15 bucks for a combo if you get a single patty - which is honestly plenty. The standout to me was the cheese. I don't know what kind of cheese they used, but it is gooey in a good way and looks amazing on the burger. The meat tastes so good, comparable to the halal meat I usually buy in North Austin halal butcher shops. The buns are so soft and fresh - in fact each bite almost melts in your mouth! I caught Covid 3 years ago and my taste has been dull/gone ever since. This burger had flavors and freshness that punched thru the dull fog of the 'Vid, and I'm pretty sure I'm healed. This burger isn't food it's medicine - perfect parts nostalgia, freshness, simplicity and taste. And don't get me started on the fries. Crispy, brown and perfect in every way. Add the fries for 2.99 to make it a combo - this burger deserves a worthy co-star and these fries do not fuck around. 10/10 - my lunch here was the first time since catching Covid that I truly enjoyed food. In the words of the great "American" action movie star hero Arnold Schwarzenegger- "I'll be back" No pics because I dont take pictures of food. But it looked as good as it taste. When I unwrapped it from the understated foil that contained it, my wife and I both gasped at how gooey, crispy and tasty it looked. Please see it for yourself. And tip that man responsible for flipping burgers the way they're meant to be flipped and served. For god sakes, visit this place and tip that MAN - nay - he's a BURGER GOD. read more

A palace of Le Pattay. Dripping in golden grease, with floors of pickle emeralds. The quintessential smash with a side of sauce. While the menu isn't as wide of the filled stomachs and loosed belts, it was to the point: single, double, or fries and tots. My only gripe is the $7 fry was not 2x the side. They may have won because ima go back and get the side and compare sizes. read more

I came here on a Saturday night with my cousin and nephew as it was getting late and it was near our Airbnb and this place was such a disappointment. When we first arrived, nobody was at the food truck and after waiting for like 10 mins someone finally showed up. We gave our order and they guy said 8-10 mins for the food, so we go to Zilker's next door to get some beer and after all that the food took over 25-30 mins. The burger was just very underwhelming from what I expected at all. Our burgers weren't even that warm from what I expected after waiting that whole time. The patty was really burnt and even their secret sauce couldn't save that burger. There is so many better places for a burger but I know I would never recommend this place to anybody. I do understand it's only one person working here but for the time waited and the food quality is just not worth it in anyway. read more

My friend and I decided to try as many smash burgers as we could find in Austin. We stopped here for some snacks since we were already spending an afternoon at St. Elmo's brewery. The burger itself doesn't look like much but at first bite, it blows you away! This is exactly how I like my smash burgers - simple, tasty and you just let the basic ingredients do all the talking! Nothing fancy or oozing out of it - just some good quality meat and bread cooked to perfection! I recommend you try it now! read more

Patty Palace would 100% be a 5-star rating in my book, however, I'm rating them a 4 because my order was wrong twice. Food: This burger would be a 10/10 in my book if my order had been right. The cheese is gooey and it's a perfect Smashburger with a little crisp. Unfortunately, my order was wrong twice. I ordered a plain cheeseburger and it first came with mustard, then when it was "fixed" it came with pickles and onions. I loved the fries. They were crispy and seasoned nicely. Service: I ordered online and they were super quick! My husband went to the window to pick up our food, so I couldn't speak too much to the face-to-face service. Parking: There's a large parking lot. read more

Burger was definitely good. 4/5. As someone who have tasted a lot of burgers in Austin, this is definitely in top 10. The side fries were so disappointing. It is nothing special but 9 pieces of fries for 3 dollars is just insane. You can count it in the picture. We asked if this is the right amount and he said that it was. Might still come back for the burger but will not get the fries. Not worth it. read more
