Gonna get busted at Busty's…read more This is my favorite dive bar in Austin. This place has personality and charm oozing out the wazoo. You can already tell this place has got character and kitsch to spare. The interior design has an old 70s biker bar with pool tables galore. When you go outside, there are so many artifacts of old on display making the ambience much more immersive. As for the food, I got the chicago dog and onion petals and my friends got various other dishes that we all shard. Perfect bar food. It's bar food so you just gotta expect bar food. But it was all still really good. The fries and petals were seasoned really well and I also got an espresso martini which was heavenly. I wish it had the bean though. The hot dog really got me correct.

I love Busty's Bar & Jukebox DOWN. To HELL and back. But let me start with what I don't like…read moreabout this MF-er: these fools do not know how to give you a receipt for what you order. Many things don't have a price listed so you have to trust in good faith that what you pay for is accurate. When I chose to print a receipt? NOTHING. When I emailed the business for one? NOTHING. When I called the establishment? NO ANSWER. When I followed up on social media? IGNORED. Speaking of calling...when you call, you get a porn chick voice recording and then the call ends. Blue balls and no progress. This is frustrating, confusing and hot??? Lol I hate this place. What I love: it's A retro bar with 70s and 80s porn vibes, chartreuse velvet seating, and an eclectic/varied/assorted drink and food menu with throwbacks to fast food menus from Generation X and millennial childhood. Porn posters on the wall. 70s color scheme and decor. And so much inside and outside seating that you wonder how it doesn't translate from the outside. From the outside, it looks like a mid so-so burger joint...but inside, it's huge and it has all of these different outside areas. It has inside/outside vibes. They shield the outside areas from the drama/noise of the city with big plant covered fence walls and other fences. It's nice. I loved the vibes. Loved the staff. Loved the atmosphere. Loved the parking. The parking lot FEELS like it's going to be tight but the truth is there is lots of parking. It's just a popular place with parking filled up all of the time. Loved the mix of the crowd. Loved the food menu. Everything was a hit. Flavorful bar food done very well. I loved my spicy jalapeño flavored loaded waffle fries. I can't tell you how much they were with the add ons and no receipt (shady people) but I want 10 more orders of them. F!ck it. My mojito was so refreshing. God might not want anything to do with this place, BUT GOD I LOVE THIS PLACE. BE TRANSPARENT WITH YOUR PRICES AND HOW YOU CHARGE, PLEASE.

Fantastic selection of beer and super friendly bartenders…read more But this review is about their food truck that's run by Little House Kitchen (according to their online ordering platform). And BTW you can only order online with a qr code (this is always a bad customer experience imo). And just like this, the customer service isn't up to part. The fish is fantastic with a crispy hand batter. The fries were the absolute worst. Not crispy and tasted like I took some non name brand fries and threw them in an air fryer. And for $13 I expect more than 4 oz of fish. Sure there were plentiful fries but when they're that bad we both wasted money. But coming back to the service, with 3 empty bottles of malt vinegar and an empty ketchup dispenser and one guy working, of course I'm going to rate the service as bad. But let's face it, we come for the BEER!!

In recent months they've revamped their menu (especially the adult bevs), improved the offering process and added indoor / outdoor TVS which were a nice touch during the World Cup.

I will start by saying at the height of its greatness, this place was 5 stars. I've been coming…read morehere for something like 7 years. Back then, Austin needed a bakery so badly that easy tiger was a standout savior. Fresh bread (still great today!) and pastries were so welcome. At some point after Covid, quality started slipping. Pastries weren't changing. The croissants were soft with no crunch. The chicken schnitzel which is used to be thin had turn into a thick blob basically a giant chicken nugget. The pretzels I always loved tasted stale like they baked them and left them sitting under heat lamps for hours. Sandwiches tasted noticeably worse. Still, we continued to come here. And then they were sold in the last year. New owners and what's the first thing they do? Fix issues? No that would be hard. They raised prices. A LOT. Coffees cost more than anywhere else in the area. Lunch for 2 adults and 2 kids meal hits $90 with zero leftovers. Every time I come here I feel so squeezed and it's never worth it. So this is it. After 7 years I'm through. The place has so much potential but whatever is happening here I cannot support. There are far better bakeries (looking at you sugarwolf) and far better coffee places (literally dozens). Here is to hoping for a turnaround.

The service went quick for the long line due to multiple registers. I had the smash burger and my partner had the pizza. The burger and fries was real good. Skinny fries which are my favorite. The pizza was bigger than I anticipated and my partner loved it and we took some home. The crust is real thin if that's your style. The beer and cider menu is large.

I've been here before. The place is spacious and food here is great but today I had an extremely…read morerude experience with our server. Never had any restaurant worker be this rude to me ever in my life. Like wow. My friend and I spontaneously went here to eat lunch and we didn't know there was a dad joke competition happening, so it was packed with people. We were able to find a spot on the bottom right corner of the space. We ordered through the QR code link. My friend ordered a beer. About 15 minutes later, a man approached our table, wasn't looking in our direction, didn't greet us, didn't say a word. He still had a grip on the mug which he placed on the table. So we were startled because we were confused: we thought he was a random person approaching our table to sit with us, like a drunk man stumbling to our table. We had 2 men come up to us prior to the server, one asking to take our 3rd chair and another drunkenly taking a paper from our table that was there when we arrived. We had our guard up. The place was packed, people were drinking, and the server (who didn't confirm with us about the drink, didn't say anything, didn't look us in the eye) looked a little disheveled, so can you blame us for thinking he wasn't a server? Management: He's older (I'm guessing in his 40s, maybe early 50s) with wild-ish hair, was either caucasian with a slight tan or was mixed with latino. So when he finally looked up and saw our reaction and asked who ordered the beer, he didn't give us a chance to say anything before preceding to literally SCOLD us saying "see this is why you have to pay attention to what you ordered because this always happens to us servers". He was so rude about it! Assuming we were not paying attention to our orders and inconveniencing him. No, sir, we were confused about YOU creeping up on us the way you did. We literally had no idea he was a server! At the end he was the one who collected our plates, still with a horrible attitude. This man seriously needs to not work in the food service industry or customer service. These are the types of experiences that makes me never want to come back ever to any place again. EVER.
