We were here at tycoon Flats for a happy hour event within my industry and Chris (girl bar tender) was a great bartender. She took care of not only our whole party, but made sure everything was taken care of as far as drinks. Apps and cleanliness goes. Will definitely come back. read more

The pastrami sandwich was delicious! The onion rings were great too but a little on the salty side, and I'm normally a person that adds salt to my food. The queso and chips were good. I like the happy hour that they have all day on Mondays. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The outside seating is nice and the service was great.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Stopped by for a couple of drinks and an appetizer. We sat at the bar and the service was very slow, even without the bar or restaurant being very crowded. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was a great spring day, and the ambiance outside with a couple of fans blowing was great![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The buffalo tots were VERY good with plenty of toppings to satisfy. Will definitely be back and hope the bar service is a little faster. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Laid-back atmosphere, great for families or couples.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food is great. Love the fries. Not a lot of restaurants have tater tots, let alone tots loaded with chili and cheese sauce.

Tycoon Flats - 50's Burger with fried egg & sweet potato fries. - American Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Excellent casual cafe for lunch or dinner![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was a bit chilly or we would have enjoyed their outside patio and bar.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Jason took outstanding care of us from the moment we sat down through a delightful dessert. He kept my tea glass filled ( my personal sign of terrific service). Food delivered quickly. Hubby had a huge and tasty Cobb salad. The blue cheese dressing is made in-house and was superb. Huge number of tempting burger options. I went for a delicious burger - with granny apple slices, blue cheese, and bacon. Their buns are locally sourced. I loved that I was able to substitute fried mushrooms for the French fries. Many other substitute options are also available. The coating on the mushrooms was spot on; Jason brought me some blue cheese dressing to dip these succulent delights in! We opted to split a house-made bread pudding! A fabulous choice, moist and delicious with a slighty crunchy surface. The sauce was wonderful and I highly recommend adding that scoop of vanilla ice cream to add another layer of flavor. Private parking lot. Full bar. Military discount - full 25% on Mondays ( we will be back for that!) Go for the food, stay for the fun! read more

We stopped by on a Saturday afternoon for a couple of burgers. We both opted for the 50s Jalapeno Bacon Cheeseburger, one with tots (.25 upcharge), the other with fried pickles ($2.75 upcharge). The burgers were overcooked, but the flavor was decent. The jalepenos had a nice kick to them and the bacon was crispy and flavorful. However, the buns got soggy and fell apart before we were even halfway done. The tots were nice a crispy, but the fried pickles were a complete disappointment. They were sliced so thin that all we could really taste was the batter. The little bit of pickle flavor that could be detected was odd, and the ranch dressing served with them was runny and flavorless. Our server was good at first, but then kind of disappeared. There were only two other tables in the place, and there were more employees than customers at that point. He spent quite a bit of time chatting with the cooks. Getting drink refills took a while. When we were ready to leave, he said he'd bring us the ticket, but I think he forgot because we could see him once again standing by the kitchen and talking. We waited five minutes then finally went to the counter to pay. Another man helped us and had to go get our server so we could pay. The food was okay, the service was mediocre. I think there are better places to get a burger in San Antonio. read more

This is a Great burger spot. The portion sizes are generous and the food is great. I needed to find something to eat that wasn't the typical local fare and I'm glad I went with this place. I've been in the hunt for good burgers and beef considering this city and it was a good time. Even as I write this, I'm having flashbacks to the burgers there has to be a blend of balanced ingredients, quality preparation for the right price and I feel like if you combine that with great customer service sets the tone for a great dining experience [[HIGHLIGHT]]Tycoon flats at Alamo Heights offered that perfectly and I can see why a place like this is good to grab a bite to eat by yourself or a quick business lunch[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Next time I'm in town I'm coming back and getting two burgers one for right then and there and one for the road read more

If you want to eat a HUGE over the top version of a burger that is heavy on pretense and light on style then Tycoon Flats is for you! This location on Austin Hwy has been calling to me for a while as I pass by frequently. I have fond memories of good times on St Mary's St. ending with a stop at this stalwart SA institution. While the St Mary's location has a very "lived in" look this one is quite sharp and well appointed i.e. new. Ordered: Bacon balsamic blue cheese burger and chili cheese tator tots. Each of these dishes suffered from the same problem...too much addition. A burger with LOTS of balsamic, and blue cheese, and super thick (chewy) bacon along with the other ingredients. It fell apart and I was forced to eat with a fork. Lets add by subtraction here. A feel for proper proportion should guide construction of such a dish. The tator tots were more like "a little bit of tots with the cheese". Again, the star is drowned by the accompaniment. Dial it back a bit and retain customers. Sometimes less IS more. read more

Tycoon Flats - THE BACON BALSALMIC BLUE CHEESE BURGER - American Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

My family and I have tried several new burger spots and this was the first one that didn't disappoint. There are a lot of great choices on the menu for burger "adornments", i.e. mushrooms, avocado, blue cheese, etc. The actual burger patty was flavorful and held up to the additions. It was a nice consistency and good balance of lean to fat. The sides were good as well. Pricing was what you would expect for this tier burger. We will definitely be returning to explore more of the menu. read more

Tycoon Flats - Balsamic blue burger - American Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

I can honestly say that this is the best cheeseburger I've had in my life! And I've had a LOT of burgers. It was SOOOOO juicy, it was not overcooked, and it was not over seasoned. The bun and the rest of the toppings were perfectly balanced, and did not overwhelm the flavor of the burger. I'm usually not a fan of the fries at most of the local burger joints, but I loved these fries. Perfectly cooked, not crispy, but not too mushy. They specialize in burgers and have many interesting varieties - take a look at their menu. They also have sandwiches, salads, etc. The best part? They have a really nice selection of regional beers on tap and in bottles/cans. They have a very spacious patio for dining, and plenty of room inside read more

I went here after a Master Naturalist training field trip at Headwaters last Sunday. I had never been before. I had been warned that parking was limited, but found a great space in the main parking lot for my brand new truck and didn't have to park in the street. Our group of about eight was seated outside in a covered area with great fans above us. That area seemed fairly festive and added to our already upbeat get together. They have lots of alcoholic beverages, but are a little short on the non-alcoholic. They did have a Heineken Zero, which was really good. Adding a few mocktails to the menu would be nice. The food all looked great on the menu and as it came to the table. I just wasn't feeling anything fried, so I opted for the Mary Joe sandwich. It was on marbled rye and had applewood smoked bacon, swiss cheese, tomatoes, baby spinach, and mayo. It was really good. I substituted a side salad for the fries. All in all, I found this to be a really pleasant place. I will definitely be back to try some other menu items. read more

I was finally able to try this local gem. Parking is a challenge in the area so be prepared to circle around or pay to park. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is old and dated but still has local charm.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's in desperate need of a deep cleaning through out though. There were flies and gnats and the table was sticky.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The chicken sandwich I ordered was ok. Lacked a little seasoning. The onion rings were delicious . I would love to try this place again but maybe once it's cleaned up. read more

Stopped by for a burger and a drink on St Patty's day. Always a really good burger and the Irish frozen drinks were delicious too.

Woe! What amazing burgers. The flavors that come out and speak on these plates as they are served. This is our second visit. I had to come back because I totally was so engrossed in the food that I completely forgot to take pics. The second visit is even as amazing as the first! This is one of the amazing places that when someone comes from out of town, and they want a unique burger, this is the place! The best part is a burger flight!! We did that last time and again this time. Different burgers each time. A couple really stood out to me on flavors. Monte Cristo burger and the Feta Bacon Cranberry were my favorites. Do not discredit the Blue Bacon Balsamic it was up there in the top 5! Atmosphere is fun!! Wait staff are sweet and had no problems answering questions. The outside patio was cool enough to dine on this Fiesta weekend (April). Bathrooms were on the patio and clean! Full bar, Coke products, no coke zero, diet coke only. We will definitely return! I can't believe I have lived in San Antonio since 2004 and this was my second visit here. read more

Great food, great atmosphere and great service. Amber was our server and she was fabulous. Acknowledged us immediately and provided great service throughout our meal. We sat on the patio despite the Texas heat because the owners were smart enough to place fans everywhere. Bloody Mary was great.

Apr 2024 The menu is the same as their N. St. Mary's location. The venue is pretty spacious, having taken over the old Purple Garlic. The bar is to your left as you enter from the parking lot (which is pretty large). We ordered burgers and they taste just as good as the ones at the other location. There was a large BD party going on when we arrived and thought service might be a little slow. Nope, all went well. Go there. read more

Tycoon Flats - Apr 2024 interior near the bar - American Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

The entrance into this place was interesting, you walked through maybe a garden or what looked like a nursery lol. Then it opened up to the large covered outdoor area. Our server was Shalyn, she was such a great server. We found out she's only been living in the area for 4 months, which was impressive to me. In that short time, she's become super Knowledgeable with the menu and flavors of many of the burgers, enough to describe them all with pretty great details. I love that they have the option to build your own slider trio (3 mini-tykes) so you can try multiple burger flavors. Fried avocado burger 7/10 Not bad, I would have liked to taste the avocado and poblano sauce more. I think there was a little too many tortilla strips, that's mostly what my bite tasted like... before they all fell off in a big chunk (The poblano sauce made them all stick together). Didn't taste the cheese much at all. Monte cristo 8/10 Pretty good. The jelly comes through the most, a good flavor. I like that they still incorporated something fried in the burger, which was the ham. Didn't taste the cheese much at all. Honey BBQ Bacon Burger 9/10 My favorite one. The flavor of the bbq with the caramelized onions and bacon was so good together. You also tasted and got the crunch from the onion ring pretty good too. I think the burgers in general were a little under-seasoned and overcooked (all sliders were cooked medium). I did love the choice of bun that they use for these too. It was soft and durable for a bun. French fries 10/10 These were AMAZING. The perfect fry. read more

Excited about coming to this location. Great burgers, apps, and beers! Pick your own seats, its outdoors but covered. We sat down and our server took our drink orders. Britt H was an awesome server. She made sure we had everything we needed. For whatever reason we went heavy on appetizers today. Chili queso fries, onion rings, and sweet potatoes fries. They were all good. They gave kids meals, Em and Noah got the same thing...bacon cheeseburgers with a fruit cup side, but they were done after the appetizers. They continued to dig into their fries. My signature garlic burger was awesome. The burger was cooked like I asked and it didn't take too long. I was happy. The American cheese melted well with the orange garlic sauce that topped the fully dressed burger. I'm glad we have a nice burger joint in our area now. I'd come back. read more

Y'all, I found it. The best burger in San Antonio, I found it. I really did. You're welcome. The roasted garlic signature burger was perfect. Perfectly cooked, perfectly topped. The roasted garlic and pepper sauce is to die for. I ate this a week ago and I think I had a dream about it last night. I'm actually debating in my mind if I had to choose between that burger and Casino El Camino in Austin for the rest of my life which one I would choose, and I really don't know. And Casino's burgers are basically perfect. This is a beautiful conundrum. The bartender at the outdoor patio was the nicest dude ever, so that might tip the scales to Tycoon Flats. read more

We visited this past Friday night at the Alamo Heights location with my two kids and had a wonderful experience. We immediately recognized Nick because he had waited on us before at the South Rim location, so it was really nice to see a familiar face again. Even though it was busy, Nick took the time to talk with us and check in. At first we thought he was a server because we saw him bussing tables, helping at the door, and running food, but then realized he's actually a manager now--and it shows. He was everywhere, helping everyone. Nick walked us through the chalkboard specials and recommended the snapper Veracruz and the Texas redfish, both of which were absolutely delicious. He was so kind with my kids and made us feel truly welcome. The Alamo Heights location is lucky to have him, and we'll definitely be back. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Don't miss out on this treat!

BUT - it is worth the stop![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Once you get inside, the staff is friendly and helpful and the atmosphere is comfy - like your grandpas garage or uncles patio.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have "normal" burgers - but their specialty burgers are DELICIOUS!

We didn't have room for milkshakes this trip, but I will make sure to save room next time! read more

I would've included photos but the food looked and tasted SO good that I inhaled it before taking pictures. Amber was our waitress and was the cherry on top of our overall great experience! We came for Sunday Lunch (a slow time for the restraunt) and Amber knew the perfect way to place our orders in, making sure we had hot food to eat quicker than quick! I ordered the Grannysmith apple burger and the Candied Cranberry burger and wow! 5/5! This is my husband's favorite place the San Antonio (period). He loved it so much, he left the restraunt talking about how great life is. They had indoor and outdoor self-seating. There is also a fenced in area for children with toys and gym equipment. We came at noon on a Sunday and I can already tell how fun this place would be for dinner on a Friday or Saturday. read more

Enjoyed a delightful lunch. Great burgers. Excellent service. Will definitely return when the opportunity arises.

Excellent service! Friendly, helpful and attentive. Huge seating area, surprisingly quiet for a Saturday at 7pm especially when you consider the food. The food was amazing. Incredibly creative menu options and excellently executed. I had the chicken fried bacon and egg burger with sweet potato fries. The food was hot and the service was fast. I definitely would like to return to try more of their menu. read more

Wow! I honestly don't know where the great reviews are coming from. I'm guessing friends and family of the staff. Our takeout experience tonight was absolutely awful! Did you guys hire a 10 year old to cook? our burgers looked NOTHING like the photos posted. Pros: - Cool outdoor seating area with misting fans - French fries were decent Cons: - Wait time is ridiculous. Monday night, hardly anyone there. I sent my bf to go get food bc I didn't want to cook. All we ordered was 2 burgers and 1 French fry. 25+ minute wait time. - BF got home, took a bite of his Patty Melt. RED! - I checked my burger and it was Bloody! Ewww! - Seems like it's just frozen patties that they just poured some soy sauce on and threw it on the grill for a couple seconds each side and called it good. Idk why it took them 25 minutes to "cook" it. The only reason I'm giving 2* is because my bf said the staff were really nice. Supposedly it was trivia night, while my bf was waiting for the crap food, DJ got there late. He heard the bartender tell the DJ, I think those guys are leaving. So basically, no one was there for trivia lol! Gee, I wonder why? Thumbs down! Do yourself a favor and go to Whataburger. Cheaper and at least you know you're getting crappy food lol! read more

They really know how to make a great hamburger. Always good and fresh. So many variations that there is one for everyone in your party.The onion rings are nonpareil - good sweet potato fries too. I've found the service is adequate - but the food is super. A few months ago I picked up an order to go to take to a friend's home since he does not get out much anymore. There were four of us and everyone was duly impressed with the quality and even the quantity of our meal. [[HIGHLIGHT]]One can eat indoors or on the patio - that is a nice option to have.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I recommend Tycoon Flats on Austin Highway without reservation. read more

This is my second time to Tycoon Flats and it didn't disappoint! I tried the Honey Smoked BBQ Burger with tater tots and it was delicious! I only ate a little of the bun but that was good. The bacon was yummy and the flavors came together well. I tried the tiger ranch with my tots and that was great! It was like a cayenne ranch. Very good and not too spicy. The ambience is casual. I love the patio. I'm one for the relaxed environments so this fit the bill. The patio has heaters so on this cool night, it was perfect! The service is good. Our server was friendly and the person who delivered our food was kind, apologizing for the wait. I didn't even think we waited long! Fun, relaxed environment with many cool combinations of burgers as well as a few yummy looking salads and fish tacos. read more

Although there were two large parties, our waiter had our drink's and food within minutes. The outdoor seating was nice, large and roomy enough.
