In Short – Originally opened on South Congress in 1939, Hut's moved to its present location in 1969. With cozy booths and tables surrounded by paraphernalia-decked walls, it's known for doing diner food right. The All-American Buddy Holly elevates the common burger--American cheese, onions, pickles, lettuce and tomato--to new heights. Crispy onion rings and fries are a perfect salty accompaniment to the meal. A chocolate shake is a must, as is a dessert of two scoops of vanilla ice cream topped with hot fudge.

Good burger

by michael67

Went to Hut's with co-workers. I like my burgers simple: no sauces, with lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickle. This means I'm at odds with most people in Austin (but not Ft. Worth). I ordered a double burger and a side of fries and rings. The burger was good (but not great). The fries were burnt, as most places in Austin haven't figured out how to cook fresh cut fries without burning them. Onion rings were nothing to write home about.

Pros: Burger was good
Cons: Burnt fries

Don't order the chicken fried steak!

by GaryAustin

I have always ordered a hamburger, but yesterday felt like a chicken fried steak. They brought out the plate and it looked like a child's plate. I thought I might have accidentally ordered the child's portion as the chicken fried steak was about the same size and shape as a hamburger patty, just chicken fried. I couldn't believe it since this is Austin Texas and so many restaurants have very large chicken fried steaks. If you want to see waht a real chicken fried steak looks like, go to the City Cafe in Elgin, or to Nutty Brown in Dripping, but don't order it here. Stick to their hamburgers and fries. Huts's should be ashamed to even put it on the menu.

Pros: Harmburgers good
Cons: Chicken fried steak looks like a child's portion.

Average Burger

by jcm2136

We ordered the All American (regular burger; no gimmick sauces or anything). The burger was just average; only a little better than a Sonic burger, but 3x as pricey.

The meat was grassfed beef, but did not have much flavor. Small machine pressed patty. The bun was nothing special, and the toppings were old. Our salad was wilted, and the water was bad. Only Pro was good service and choice of beef.
