always greeted very nicely when we go, we have come here a few times now its one of our new favorite takeout spots. portions are very plentiful and its always SO fresh every. single. time. the bussin sauce is amazing i always get extra. the only issue we have ever had is the mac and cheese is inconsistent, sometimes its amazing and other times it can be watery or overcooked. other then that every thing else is amazing every time. the banana bread pudding is my favorite of all time read more

We tried bussin fries and bussin Mac. The tender is crispy and solid 10/10, love that they offer no spice option so my husband can enjoy too. I personally prefer fries and finds their mac pretty basic. I would rec bussin fries but skip the mac. Would come back to try their sandwich next time. read more

BussinBuns - Bussin' Fries and Bussin' Mac - Food Trucks Near Me - Austin, Texas

We love coming here, absolutely love it. But today my wife ordered the wrong thing and wanted to change it before they made it, and they refused to change it or give her money back. The cashier was very rude and un professional, and what was a small change he didn't want to fix. Absolutely horrible! read more

Very tired and a little hungover, I was craving something tasty but definitely not good for me. BussinBuns popped up as something new to try so I decided to give it a go. I got the Bussin fries and here are my thoughts. Crinkly cut fries were pretty good, crispy with good substance. Chicken was crispy on the outside and still juicy inside. My main issue was that the chicken really tasted like it was over-salted. I actually added extra pickles of my own to it to break up some of the salt. Even though, I had a tough time finishing it all just because of the salt content. I must've received a bad batch with a heavy hand. Other than that, the flavor was good, I just wish the chicken wasn't over-salted. read more

Service was quick but friendly. Food also came out quickly but was hot and fresh. The Mac is tasty, the first few bites I was thrown off because of the sauce on top but it turned out to be pretty good. read more

BussinBuns off Airport Blvd is by far my favorite chicken spot in Austin! Can't lie I've always gotten the bussin fries because they're so irresistible!! I've stopped at this food truck well over 10 times & they keep me coming back for more! Service is a complete 10 out of 10. I say that because they're friendly & their food never disappoints! They may just be a food truck but the environment is well shaded with benches! read more

First time here, and my initial impressions were--honestly, not great. The area is a bit of a dump, and the server wasn't particularly engaging. The music was too loud, making it hard to hear when ordering. We got the Bussin' Combo at X-Hot spice level, a mac and cheese for the kiddo, and a drink. There are a few benches to sit at, so we decided to eat there. They text you when the food is ready, which was convenient. While waiting, I noticed it's really popular for pick-up orders--it stayed busy the entire time we were there. The food took a while, but I don't mind waiting for something freshly prepared. When it finally came, we split everything among the three of us. The mac and cheese initially had spicy seasoning, which was too spicy for the kiddo. We asked them to remove the seasoning and they kindly replaced it with one without it, which we really appreciated. The mac and cheese was delicious, and the kiddo loved it. As for the chicken--it was excellent! Fresh halal chicken that was tender and juicy, yet with a crispy outer batter. The seasoning was properly spicy, just how I like it. Honestly, X-Hot was intense, so I wouldn't go higher next time, but I also wouldn't go lower either! It definitely cleared out my sinuses with all the tears and water streaming from my eyes and nose. Despite the initial poor impressions, we really enjoyed our meal and left totally satisfied. I'd definitely come back, but since they've opened a north location closer to us, we'll be supporting them there instead! read more

BussinBuns - Bussin' Combo - Food Trucks Near Me - Austin, Texas

Pulled up to the Guadalupe location after a 25 minute drive, and I'd do it again without hesitation. When I say this place is bussin', I mean I'd yeet a toddler through a field goal just to get a second location in South Austin (but that's just me being selfish). We ordered the Bussin Mac and the sandwich, both were absolutely unreal. The flavor, the spice, the portion size? All 10/10. The guys in the back were moving quick, food came out hot, and the value for what you get is wild. Blows Hatti B's straight outta the water. Already planning my next trip back, and I'm not coming alone. read more

So much food for such a great price - it really lives up to its name - the chicken was spicy crunchy and crispy - and the Cajun fries were amazing. Totally recommend coming here! read more

This food truck holds true to its name and is BUSSIN. The chicken is so well spiced and crispy! I've tried the tender plate and the combo plate (sandwich + 1 tender). I think the tenders are better than the sandwich because you can taste the flavor of the meat a lot better! There are a few tables for outdoor seating, but most people take it to go. I usually order online and pick it up and it's ready pretty quickly. read more

BussinBuns - 2. Single Bun - Food Trucks Near Me - Austin, Texas

So, for a small stand on the side of the road, this place has some fiery in their chicken. Most people think that small stands are 50/50 and never know what you are going to get. We'll have a good gamble on this one. The owner is the guy who takes your order and he has great customer service. It was not spicy enough for me what I ordered, so he threw some more spice and precooked it for me and no charge. I was amazed. They have some picnic tables to just relax and much. Or you can take it with you to go. Over all great experience. read more

The food here was amazing. I got the bussin Mac and it was one of my favorite things I've had in a while. Every part of the bussin Mac worked so well together to create such a beautiful dish. Mac and cheese, fries, and chicken all together is a dish I had never even thought of before but this idea is ingenious. The wait was pretty long for the food 20min ish, but I think it's highly worth it and I will definitely be coming back. read more

Service - 3/5 How do you open a restaurant at noon and have no food prep done and it take 25 min for 2 orders. Ambiance 4/5 - a must / need to add umbrellas to the outside tables. Food - 5/5 - very fresh and flavorful! We got the bus bun singles with fries. One was hot and one was mild. Would do mild for both next time. Fries were fresh and had good seasoning. Love the bussin sauce! So the question you are asking is - is it worth the wait? Yes, BUT I would order ahead so I am not waiting there for 25 min. read more

Surprised at the quality. My husband and I enjoyed it. Very fresh and hot, seasoned well !!!

Needed a late night meal. Decided to get a sandwich. Nothing special, but not bad. A tip was added to my order without me knowing.

This was my place for a while when I lived in Cherrywood. Their chicken sandwich things are so so good! Their house made sauce is also amazing! read more

10/10 I do recommend! I ordered the double bun bussin combo and who would've thought to put chicken tenders on a buttery hotdog bun! It was pretty tasty, meat was juicy and seasoned well not too salty. The fried were yummy too and they traveled well! I would order more sauce next time even that was scrumptious and paired well with the chicken/buns! Lol! I ordered via Uber eats therefore I am unsure of the service but my order was correct and I was elated by that. I would definitely order again and would even drive to their food truck! read more

Food- we got the extra hot and regular hot. I think the hot was better in the sense it had more flavor. The extra hot just tasted like chili seasoning but was still good. Get extra sauce to drown your sandwich in because they don't really put a lot of sauce. Service: super sweet and helpful! Ambiance: not much, it's a good truck! They have some seating but I just ordered it to go :) read more

I stopped by BussinBuns while I was in the area and the food was alright overall. The sandwich was warm and the flavors were decent, but nothing really stood out read more

I always drove by this place and finally decided to come check it out cause I love Nashville hot chicken. At lunch time on Friday, the wait was about 10 minute to get the food after you placed the order. I got the combo since I wanted to try both the sandwich and the tender. I got the "hot" spice level and it really wasn't spicy at all but great flavoring. The chicken was so juicy and the bread that came with it nice and fluffy! The only thing that was subpar was the fries. Next time, I'll just order the tender without the fries. Highly recommend if y'all are looking for some good Nashville hot chicken! read more

Looks a lot better than it tastes.. unfortunately :( Food: I was so excited to try because I've seen many reels. I got the bussin fries: 2 tenders in the xxxtra hot level (hottest) over a bed of fries drizzled in the bussin sauce. The tenders were soft and tender and nicely crispy. No complaints for the actual chicken, but the flavor wasn't the greatest. For one, it was not spicy at all even though it was the spiciest level. Flavor fatigue hits hard and i cant even pinpoint a flavor profile for the meal. It was seasoned but not a strong seasoning it was just a load of one dimensional flavor..if that makes sense. It was good for a few bites but after a while it gets boring and tastes all the same. Service: Kind of slow because it is made fresh to order so I understand the wait. Ambiance: Its a food truck :) Overall I wouldn't go back..I prefer dave's hot chicken for this nashville hot chicken style read more

There is no way to contact the business on the phone. Only email with no responses. How do you run a business without being able to speak to an employee about a square charge dispute?? Very frustrating being we are from out of state with a simple error that they can fix if they would reply to the only form of communication they offer which is email. I have sent 2 emails with no response! read more

Bussin buns definitely lives up to their name! Some of the best hot chicken in Austin by far up there with T22 and spicy boys! The guys are always friendly at the truck. We always enjoy the bussin fries and the tenders, not for the weak hearted! read more

OVERALL: 3.5/5 My bf and I have been wanting to try this place after seeing so much rave about it. We ordered the tender plate level Hot with a side of ranch. After we ordered, we had to wait about 35-40 minutes for our food to be ready which was fine. (I would say order ahead if it's more convenient for you!!) The guy taking our order was cool and helpful with answering our questions. We inspected our food and realized they missed both our side of ranch and the side bussin sauce that was already included with the plate. Good thing we hadn't left the lot so we were able to snag those (after waiting in line again). FOOD: I was disappointed that the fries were not fresh after waiting so long. The tenders did seem freshly cooked. The hot spice level definitely had a kick but I wouldn't say it was overly spicy (I have a high spice tolerance fyi). Bussin Sauce was good! This place is Halal! read more

I got the Single Bussin Bun Combo- Mild Heat Level. It was SO FLAVORFUL. It is the same heat level as Tumble 22s Hot or Urban bird Mild, Now keep in mind we still had a 25 minute drive home and it was still so crunchy on the outside and tender on the inside of the chicken strip. The wait time for the food was about 20ish minutes, understandable because there were quite a few orders ahead of us. I kind of wish a sauce came with the sandwich combo like it does with the tenders combo. The fries were so tasty too! There are, if I'm remembering correctly, 3 tables outside of the food truck for you to sit and enjoy your food. Overall really delicious read more

BussinBuns - #2 Single Bun, 1 sandwich served with 1 tender, Cole slaw, pickles, bussin sauce and a side of fries. I added a ranch for .69 cents extra. - Food Trucks Near Me - Austin, Texas

This place is dangerous--dangerously some of the best hot chicken in Austin! I got the hottest seasoning and it was just right. I would say it's around the Mo' Hot at Tumble 22. I got the Bussin Combo and the bread was really nice and their sauce is incredible. The chicken was juicy all-white meat. The staff was alright--I caught them as they had just opened and I am not sure the cashier wanted to be there that day. Order ahead! It took about 15-20 minutes for me to get my order as I sat in front of Terry's Seafood. It looks like non-cash fees are becoming a trend in this area which I don't truly mind at all. read more

The food maybe good BUT they take for ever! You have to double check and ask if your food is ready. Not worth the wait!!! Cashier always on her phone doing nothing. Not sure what takes them sooooo long! Waited over 30 minutes. read more

This. Is. It. This is *THE* closest I've come across Nashville Hot Chicken in Austin. We got the 2 sandwich combo with fries and some extra bussin sauce. I especially loved the crispy breading on the chicken. Very reminiscent of Dave's but the chicken was definitely fresher imo. The bussin sauce is really similar to a comeback type sauce. The fries were super season and paired deliciously with the bussin sauce. I wasn't a huge fan of the hot dog buns as the tenders were kind of bigger and I prefer a more bread to tender ratio (that's just me personally). But for about $14 for two juicy sandwiches with giant tenders and fries this place was value. The mild was pretty spot on. I ordered online and the food was ready in about 20mins. Loved that it was quick! Please open up a truck in South Austin!! read more

High hopes turned into disappointment. The food was okay. My wife, son and I place an order on a rainy night. We get home and discover that the order was wrong and there was no way to contact them. I drove back (about 20 mins) to let them know. They apologized and remade my order. The order was still wrong! A woman then proceed to tell me and the person who took my original order that everything was correct. I had to walk away with no plans of returning. read more

Straight up BUSSIN. My boyfriend and I always pull up here every time we visit Austin (2-3 times a month). The food is so tasty and fresh. We love the "bussin combo" plate. I order "mild" or "hot" spice depending on my mood that day. I honestly love spicy food but can't imagine ordering past the "hot" level. The staff is cool and helpful, they even let us order once after pulling up after closing hours! Basically what I'm saying is, the food is BUSSIN!!! read more

Food tastes terrific. I literally just cannot in good faith recommend this to everyone unless you're prepared. The aftermath is horrendous, I don't know if that's just what you sign up for with hot chicken, but your next 12 hours after eating here you're in for a trip. Service is pretty great, and the ambiance is what you'd expect from a food truck. Again the food is fantastic, but just be ready read more

My friends found this place, and we were so excited because of all the good reviews. Another sign this place was great was the long line on a Monday at 3PM. We waited a pretty long time for our food, but everything was super good. I ordered the tender plate, and I'm in love with their sauce. The fries are seasoned pretty well, but I wish they were slightly crispier. The chicken is incredibly juicy, and even mild had a nice kick to it. I don't necessarily think it's worth the long wait, but I do think you get more bang for your buck given the portion sizes. I would definitely suggest getting an extra sauce if you're a sauce person and DOUSE your fries/chicken in sauce. I was also a bit disappointed to discover the toast is literally...just toast. I thought it would be like the Texas toast from Cane's. read more
