I have been coming here for years. Longhorn is the way to go! Front of House made me feel rushed, and there was no line, but the experience was saved by the amazing personality of the man running the grill. He made us feel welcome.
Top Notch Hamburgers is a classic Austin restaurant that has been serving up delicious burgers and fried chicken since 1971. I love the retro atmosphere and the friendly carhop service. The burgers are charcoal-grilled and juicy, and the fried chicken is crispy and flavorful. I highly recommend the Top Notch Burger with bacon and cheese, and the fried chicken sandwich.
I've been to both Top Notch locations in Austin, and they're both great. The Burnet Road location is more central, but the Hutto location is less crowded. Either way, you're sure to have a great meal at Top Notch Hamburgers.
Food is great with the exception of the hickory burger special. It’s just sauce and a burger. The rest of their food is amazing! Check it out! Alright alright alright….

Full disclosure: I only wanted to visit Top Notch because it's in one of my favorite films of all time, Dazed And Confused. That said, Top Notch is amazing all on its own! I brought my family to Top Notch. Myself and my son both had cheeseburger combos. The burgers were delicious and the fries were plentiful. My wife got a hamburger and she loved it. My daughter had chicken tenders. She said that the country gravy was excellent. My brother and his wife also joined us and they both had fried chicken dinners. That chicken looked great! I plan on getting that on my next trip.
The atmosphere is pure 1970s. From the wood paneling to the photo booth, Top Notch definitely captures the spirit of one of the best decades. The staff was friendly and made conversation with customers while ordering and while dining.
Yes, there's a little area dedicated to Dazed And Confused, and it's worth visiting for that alone, but be sure to check out the great food and service at Top Notch as well!
