Casino El Camino

6th Street ★★★★½ 4.7 $$

Dive bar on Dirty Sixth with burgers that take 45 minutes and are worth every second. The Amarillo Burger with serrano and jalapeño is fire.

2

Jewboy Burgers

East Austin ★★★★½ 4.6 $$

Food truck turned brick-and-mortar. The OG Jewboy (pastrami, mustard, pickles on a burger) is a mashup masterpiece.

3

Le Politique Burger

Congress Ave ★★★★½ 4.6 $$$

French brasserie with a burger that has no business being this good. Dry-aged, gruyère, garlic aioli, on a brioche.

4

Hopdoddy

South Congress ★★★★½ 4.4 $$

The line out the door is the review. Craft burgers with quality you can taste. The Primetime is a crowd-pleaser.

5

P. Terry's

Multiple Locations ★★★★½ 4.5 $

Austin's answer to In-N-Out, but better. Fresh, fast, affordable. The double with grilled jalapeños is the move.

6

Loro

South Lamar ★★★★½ 4.5 $$$

Aaron Franklin (of Franklin BBQ) and Tyson Cole (Uchi) collaboration. The smoked burger is BBQ meets fine dining.

7

Dan's Hamburgers

Multiple Locations ★★★★ 4.3 $

Austin since 1973. Old-school flat-top burgers that taste like your childhood, if your childhood was in Texas.

8

Stiles Switch BBQ

North Loop ★★★★½ 4.4 $$

Known for BBQ, but the ground brisket burger is a sleeper hit. Smoky, beefy, served on white bread. Texas as hell.

9

Hat Creek Burger

Multiple Locations ★★★★ 4.2 $

Family-friendly with a playground, but the burgers punch above their weight class. Great shakes too.

10

Salt & Time

East Cesar Chavez ★★★★ 4.3 $$

Butcher shop that grinds their own patties daily. You're eating a burger from people who actually understand meat.
