    Come and Take It Burger and Fried Pickles
    Ashley L.

    Went to have some drinks at Vida Lee and found this yummy food truck here. I asked for the spicy burger he had and he recommended me the come and take it burger and recommend the fried pickles to go with it. I got to say it was a great recommendation I would go back to get it again. Plus the customer service was great he was very friend in which I found out he was from pretty much where I was from so it was nice to meet him!

    Brodie burger with bacon and fries, , $18.25 before tip. Very uhhhhhhh not good.

    Maybe the dude was having problems with his equipment, which is why it took 45 mins without a line, but the food was just not good. Overcooked (and/or previously frozen?) burger with bacon and fries: $18.25 before tip. The fries were fresh, so I'm guessing the dude cooked the burger and had it sitting there getting cold while he made the fries. Italian sandwich sucked too, but it was at least hilarious. Nice quality bread, but something a little more generous than a 9:1 bread-to-meat ratio would've been appreciated.

    Two Farmhouse Burgers with fries and chips

    This food truck is fine. It's middling. When a place has a focus on burgers I defer to how they cook it standard to start as I expect them to know best. The truck itself looks really cool and I love the Thicket Food park location. They're the only burger spot in the park and I had high expectations after having had the other food like the hotdogs, coffee, and breakfast trucks. We decided to pop over and go specifically to the Perfect Bite to, well, get some perfection burgers to bite into. Overall, the experience was fine. The employees were super friendly and approachable. The food took about 15 minutes because it's all cooked fresh and that's to be expected. So let's break it down. Starting with sides. The fries were cooked perfectly. Crispy and light exterior with a fluffy warm interior. Everything you could want. The chips were H-E-B brand salted chips right from the bag to the tray. Easy, simple, nothing special but just what you'd want. The burgers. Overall the flavors were on point. The bacon was nice and a lip smoky. The egg thought was cooked in a perfect circle form a la Starbucks or McDonald's style. Either in a ring on a flattop or microwaved. Not sure. Somehow when it was handed to us the yolk was still runny but by the time we sat down and got to the middle of the burger it was cooked through. The buns had a hefty char on the top but didn't impart that taste and were incredibly good. I don't think they make them so I'd love to find the brand so I can start using them at home! So, that leaves us with the meat. The star of the burger show. Sadly, while with flavor, it was over cooked and a lil dry. I think the spot has potential and with the thickness of that patty id love to try it again and ask for a done-ness level of rarer to see what this burger can really be! But for now as it comes, it left me not excited nor truly disappointed.

    Not a mushroom Swiss, but it's definitely a burger.

    I just ordered from this place for the first time. The guy got my order wrong in a big way. What I ordered was a mushroom swiss with grilled mushroom and onion and chipotle Mayo. What I got was a $14 burger with cheddar on a dry bun. No mushroom, no onion. He was new he said, and he caught the cheddar mistake before playing the food, but I didn't realize he missed the entire half of the burger I was expecting. Plus, the fries weren't cooked enough- I popped those bad boys into an air fryer as soon as I got home. My husbands burger at least had the bacon and Swiss cheese he wanted, but there was no chipotle Mayo either. Poor guy was a little flustered so I feel bad he was new and having to handle everything all by himself, but also not happy to spend money on something and not get what I asked for too. The bun is very buttery, burger patty a little dry. Good quality cheddar though. I'm pretty bummed I paid $35 for what I got.

    Cheeseburger Honey and Lime Grilled Chicken Sandwich with Basket of Fries
    Allison B.

    This is my first review of 2021, and I'm excited to start this year on a high note, with a 5 star review! I'm going to tell you how badass The Perfect Bite is. My husband and I had lunch here today, and it was the best decision ever. This food trailer is in The Thicket food/retail trailer park off S 1st, and it's super cute! Lots of trees and shady picnic benches, lots of yummy food trucks to eat at, a coffee trailer that looks quite bomb, and even a hair and makeup trailer! Oh and also... Simpli Thai has a lil pick-up trailer out here, so you can pre-order any of their goodies (Thai meal kits or sauces) for pick-up too, while you're out here! Onto the important stuff: The Food. I had the Honey Lime Grilled Chicken Sandwich (add avo, bc, duh) and my husband had the burger. Holy Food Coma- so good, and we both stuffed our faces and ate everything on our plates. The chicken sandwich is juicy, saucy, and flavorful- would dare to say it's the Top 3 grilled chicken sandwiches of my life. Messy AF, so grab lots of napkins or order fries and dip your fries in the cheesy, sauciness that will inevitably drip from your sandwich. The burger was great too! The meat was perfectly cooked to medium, and that croissant-esque bun was MONEY. I will for sure ask for that same bun any time I order a sandwich from this place again. Also, just want to mention the guy at the counter was really nice and helpful! Can't wait to come back and try more of the sandwiches here.

    The location is cute for sitting down and to eat/talk. Overall The Perfect Bite was decent. The burger was cooked fresh and the bread did stand out as if it were made from scratch, the people were friendly and did enforce social distancing while ordering and wore masks the entire time. The burger itself was in the same level of making your own burger at home, the taste was good. I'm not discrediting the burger by any means, but I just felt like there was more my mouth was wanting after the last bite, as if I wasn't fully satisfied with the taste entirely. I felt for the price of the meal (burger and fries) it wasn't worth it. Overall the location is great, so come out and enjoy the sun and grab yourself a nice meal.

    Order here!

    My search for a really good hamburger in South Austin has finally ended! I enjoyed combo sliders, with fries and they were amazing! Star of the show for me were the french fries, - best french fries I've had in the United States! But let's not forget the hamburgers, the beef patties are beautifully cooked sizzling hot and incredibly juicy and flavorful, with a perfect accompaniment of cheese and spices on top. Next time I'm going to wear my big boy pants and order the full size hamburger, and I hear that it's a monster! I really cannot wait to come back here , awesome food, awesome service so glad I found it!

    Terrible service and food. Waited over 30 minutes for overcooked, border line burnt burgers, cold and under cooked fries. Overpriced in general and especially for the quality of food we received.

    Come and Take it Burger

    Frozen patties, the 'pickled' peppers were just sliced. Definitely not 'the perfect bite'

    Burger

    New location on Slaughter (next to CVS) so I had to try it. Had the S 1st burger. Brioche bun. Grilled peppers. Patty grilled to perfection. Yum. Generous side of kettle chips. Great place to pick up lunch and a convenient location. Enjoy!

I didn't feel like a burger though so I got the Classic Coney hotdog which is full of Detroit style chili (thick meat chili with no beans), and loaded with red onions and shredded cheddar cheese, then topped with mustard. It was delicious and filling. It Truly was like a dog you'd get at a Coney's in Detroit, MI. IYKYK. Then I heard you had to try the latke here, so I got Bubbe's OG Latkes which is 2 round thick potato pancakes! It came with sour cream and Smutz smoky aoli sauce on the side. I tried it both ways and it was good. But really it was best with that cold creamy sour cream that goes so well with the potato flavor.

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!!

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.

The flavor and quality that made me come back before just weren't there this time, which was super disappointing. I honestly left feeling a little sad because I used to go there all the time for that exact reason and took a 30 min drive to try it again. On the positive side, the staff is still amazing.
