BEST fast food burger place I've had in my life (maybe?) My usual order is the little buddha, poutine, and fries. Sometimes I'll go crazy with the mushroom burger and it really is a gigantic block of cheese, but you have to be mentally and physically be prepared for it. I've only tried the nirvana sauce and I don't ever stray from that. read more

I've driven by this trailer so many times!!!!! I finally decided to stop and give it a try! The weather was nice and cool and perfect for their outdoor seating area. I ordered off their hidden menu which you can find online. You will be amazed at the food here! The quality, the taste!! Ahmaziiiingg!! Their nirvana sauce is tangy. Think level up thousand island only not pink. Also their amazing sauce goes great on burgers. We had the Amazing burger single (although I could of eaten a whole double by myself) and the Crispy Chicken with nirvana sauce was the best sandwich I've ever had! The chicken was so tender and juicy for being fried. The onion rings had a nice kick to them too. Not super spicy just mild. You just also try their chocolate chip toffee cookie!! It's super yummy!!!!!! I'll def go back!!! The staff/ owners were so friendly. They came out and asked about the food and we learned a bit about them. Very friendly and personable. They have several locations. Check 'em out!! read more

Buddha Burger is SO good. I ordered late night takeout from Buddha, and they were so sweet they even wrote a note on the paper bag! The mini burgers' patties are so moist and the French fries' texture was perfect. It was really hard to stop eating, and I love that this spot is so close to where I live. I will definitely be ordering from them again to try other burgers! read more

Service was very nice and came to check up us while dining and was happy to get additional stuff like napkins. The food was so good, some of the best burger and chicken sandwich I have ever had. The chicken bacon ranch was so good, the chicken was so moist and juicy and the breading on the chicken was so flavorful. Some of the best ranch with lots of flavor and paired well with the sandwich. The California classic burger was one of the best burgers I've had. The patties had a really nice crust that added a lot of flavor but was still thick with a really nice angus beef flavor. The buns had a toasted bun on the exterior which was incredible, shattered when biting into it with a really nice buttery taste. The nirvana sauce balanced the richness of the burger so well. Amazing burger. Some shaded eating area would have been nice. Overall, an incredible experience and would definitely return. Can't give this place enough praise. read more

Buddha Burger - Chicken Bacon Ranch, Double California Classic, Poutine - Burgers Near Me - Austin, Texas

Amazing Hamburgers! Hands down top 3 in Austin and we come here often. The burgers are crispy and have fantastic flavor, staff is friendly, and location in North Austin is easy for us to get to. It is a food truck so parking can get tricky but its by a gas station so theres always somewhere to park it seems. My only gripe- stop being so stingy with the onion rings! Its a lot for an order of onion rings and last time we were there only 5 came in the bag- thats like $1 per ring and some werent even that big. Shame because they are delicious, but I would skip just because its a rip off. Just get the burger! read more

Best smash burgers in Austin! I usually don't like saying something is the "best". But this is the best smash burger I've had in Austin. It is everything I want in a smashed huger. The cheese is melted, it looks simple, the meat is seasoned and smashed properly, and the buns are soft!!! It didn't take long to get my food. The truck is clean and ordering was smooth! I have officially found my "burger spot". ! read more

Buddha Burger - Double cheese burger with grilled onions - Burgers Near Me - Austin, Texas

I had been to Buddha Burger when Yelp hosted an event there and really enjoyed it and happened to be in the area again so I stopped by. I love mushrooms and thought about trying the Laughing Buddha which has a breaded/fried mushroom caps with cheese in between, but it might have been a bit too much cheese so I went with the Double Cheeseburger. The double cheeseburger is pretty much everything you want in a solid burger. 2 juicy smashed patties, perfectly melted cheese, and a great balance of toppings without being messy. The flavor is bold and beefy, and you can tell they use quality ingredients. It's the kind of burger that hits the spot from the first bite to the last. The cajun fries were super crisp on the outside and fluffy inside, and the onion rings ended up being one of the standout sides. They were thick-cut, crunchy, and not greasy at all, with a light batter that let the onion actually shine. Both dip well in their nirvana sauce. Service was friendly, and food came out hot. If you're craving a classic, well-made burger meal in Austin, Buddha Burger is absolutely worth a visit. Value wise, I'm still a Buddy's Burger fan as they're also super solid, but Buddha Burger is great too if you're in the area. Do be careful going up and down their stairs to order/pick up order. read more

This may be the best burger in Austin. Get double patties if you like your burger extra meaty. Their drinks are great and the cookies are too. Get your fries with Cajun seasoning. I'm so glad I live near this truck. read more

Came today after a scooter ride down by the creek. Is super easy to get to from the trails. Food came out fast and fresh. I got the chicken strips onion rings and the mango tea of the day. Omg so good. The staff were super friendly and gave great rec's for the sauce. The space is in the parking lot of a gas station so it's kind of busy but it's super local and very friendly. All in all I'll be back for sure to try the burger next time. read more

We got the basic double cheeseburger with Cajun fries. It was very very fresh and very very good. While we were waiting a Buddha Burger Enthusiast let us know that the Cali is the best option. If you don't get the Cali, she said to definitely ask them to ghee your buns. We got some kind of chocolate chip toffee cookie. OMG. I'll definitely be thinking about it later. The service was awesome, but ambiance isn't the greatest. It's in a gas station. But don't think about that. It's good. We'll be back for the Cali and the chicken sandwich ASAP! And the cookie!!! read more

Buddha Burger - Double Cheeseburger - Burgers Near Me - Austin, Texas

Didn't expect this place to be a food truck but to my surprise it was pretty good. The burgers were made quickly and survived the drive home. The patty had good flavor and didn't feel overly greasy. The poutine was an interesting item on the menu and the staff suggested we try it. I thought it was great. The cheese was melty and the fries weren't too soggy. The toffee cookie was a sweet and crunchy dessert. Overall definitely give this place a try if you're looking for a new burger spot. read more

I was enticed to try Buddha burger as result of their natural approach to their burgers. For example, I was told they ground their beef every day. The cali, according to the server, was one of the top 3 food items. As a general principle, I usually order the most popular menu items. The Cali did not disappoint! First, the bread was buttery delicious...larger than a slice of bread but smaller than a standard bun...toasted. Then the inside drippy good - a thick, fresh piece of beef, perfectly grilled onions (sweet & soft), lettuce, cheese and a special sauce. The burger was super filling. Buddha burger on metric is a food truck. They have a free standing building in Pflugerville. There is no seating outside. Therefore, it's a grab and go food truck. read more

I first discovered this business after attending a grand opening Yelp event for them. Some things you need to know before you arrive is the fact that the seating that they do have is outdoors and mostly not shaded. There's some covered seating directly across from the car wash, but there are no tables there. One of the drawbacks of coming here is ascending the rickety steps to place your order and to pick it up. This is definitely more of a get it to go operation unless you like sitting at a picnic table under the blazing sun. I got the double cheese and fries and they do give you a good helping of fries, but they were very stingy with just two packets of ketchup. The meat they use looks like fresh smashed beef, not previously frozen. They do a decent job in the burger business and a double smashed cheese combo will run you close to $20 (and you will face the tip screen with your credit card for that added expense). I think Buddy's burgers are of better quality and value, but they are better than In-N-Out, especially their fries. My order took less than 10 minutes to get. Informative photos/video included. read more

Food truck in north austin with burgers, fries, onion rings and shakes. A surprising addition to the menu is poutine down here in Texas. I didnt order it this time since we did a to go order but will have to try it next time. We got the Little Buddha burger with nirvana sauce. Burger was good! I wouldn't say it is anything super special but it is solid. The prices are comparable to shake shack or other burger places. If I were rank the burgers in the area though, this place would be in the middle of the pack. Mainly due to the high price for a good burger but not a great burger. Overall, We will be back to try some some other menu items but will probably go somewhere else to grab a burger read more

Buddha Burger - outside - Burgers Near Me - Austin, Texas

What a gem. Super friendly staff and amazing hot fresh burgers, some of the best I've had. Be warned though that the butter buns may be a bit much to folks - you can always just ask for regular buns. But to me, everything about the burger is excellent. I personally loved the crisp of the buttered buns. Also don't skip the onion rings - absolutely fantastic and a must get read more

We really love their food. The location is pretty close to home so it's one of our go to meals if we're not cooking. The have a great mix of fusion flavors and just straight up classic burgers. I like to get the California classic burger sometimes lettuce wrapped (which is messy but still delicious. We also love the chicken bacon ranch sandwich, and the tenders are massive. We love their sides, but my favorite are the onion rings which have a bit of an unusual but definitely not unpleasant kick. Really delicious toffee cookie too. They have a line up of house sauces but my go to is the sauce 6, it's a mix of thru bbq and nirvana sauce and I love it. Food always takes a bit to come out, but it's because you know it's fresh and very much worth the small wait. Not much seating is available but across the parking lots there's another few food truck with tables if you need it. read more

So, so good! I always get the basic cheeseburger, and add the fried jalapeños. Gives a nice crisp to it. I haven't had any of their chicken items yet, but they've got great burgers. And I feel like the pricing is fair enough. Most of the guys that work there are very friendly. And I love the string lights they have out at their benches. Nice touch to the ambiance. read more

They make a damn good burger! I got the Buddha burger with bacon, Cajun fries and their ice tea. Everything was fantastic. The burger definitely tastes like fresh meat. The fries were crispy and fluffy, the seasoning was just enough to taste, but not overwhelm. The ice tea flavor of the day was coconut and it was spectacular. The guy at counter was friendly. Overall great lunch! read more

This place is incredible! They serve up restaurant style burgers out of a beautiful brand new food truck! It is conveniently located near a gas station for bathrooms, drinks (other than water and tea sold at Buddha Burger), and a bunch of picnic tables! I got a vegetarian burger on the GF quinoa bun. It was delicious! The staff were kind and helpful with recommendations too. Highly recommend a lunch or dinner stop here! read more

Might be my favorite quick burger in Austin! Every thing is delicious and fresh, great sauces as well. Try one of everything!

I've been to Austin for about 9 months now and Buddha Burger is by FAR my favorite burger spot. The cheeseburger and Cajun fries are my go to!!! My only small not even complaint but sometimes it can be a drag is the time. It doesn't always take a long time but sometimes maybe during the busier times there is a little of a wait. There are cute picnic spots with lights right by it as well. Very cute spot! I stick with my 5 star review because wow. read more

I was able to attend a Yelp Elite event and was able to check out Buddha Burger. They had a long line of people who were waiting patiently to get a piece of their burger. I joined that line as you can smell the richness of the meat in the air. Once I was able to get a turn to collect a burger and a side. The staff were nice, talked to everyone and thanked everyone to trying their food. Once I had my burger, I took a bite and was juicy. I couldn't stop myself to get a good picture of the food and continued to eat it all. The burger was very flavorful and juicy which caused my tastebuds to go wild. I will be back! read more

First, this is a food truck with outdoor tables, so go on a nice day. The burgers are good and regularly sized for Austin which is not too big, but not child sized. The quality of ingredients is good and the fries are good. At lunch time it took about 10 minutes to get our food so it wasn't bad. If you're looking for a quick bite this place is well within reason. read more

Burgers are okay...but the star are the ONION RINGS!!! Also the burgers were very fresh and made to order-- so expect a longer wait than most other burger places. read more

the cajun fries are wonderful. the cheese fries aren't great, you have to actually wait for the shredded cheese to melt on top of them and even then they don't taste all that good on their own. The crispy chicken buddha is pretty good but the sauce makes the cheese unnecessary in my opinion. it also is a little messy but tasty. My order came with a sauce and I used it on the fries but it may have been intended for the sandwich. Not sure what it was, some sort of garlic aioli perhaps but it was delicious. read more

The hand written note was an extra touch that puts it over the edge. The burgers and chicken sandwiches are delicious. Will continue to support these guys read more

AWESOME burgers, Cajun fries, and milkshakes! You can even get a warm chocolate chip cookie while you wait for your order.
