Editorial Review for Top Notch Restaurant – by Ben Niekerk
In Short
This locals-only restaurant has not changed with the times. Embrace the flashback décor and see why Richard Linklater's 1970's period piece, Dazed and Confused, was shot on the doorstep of this famous Austin burger joint. Dine in, take out, or order up from the car. Renowned for their fried chicken as well as burgers like the Top Pick with hickory sauce, they have been serving up what hungry Austinites crave for over thirty years.

Top Notch is amazing! I have never had anyone go there and not fall in love with the food and the atmosphere! The chocolate shakes are to die for and I'm pretty partial to the grilled cheese and french fries too!
Pros: fun relaxed atmosphere and great, inexpensive food
Cons: they don't take credit or debit cards, but there's an ATM inside

When you drive up to the Top Notch, its like going back to the early 1970's. No wonder Richard Linklater chose this place for "Dazed and Confused". Its a great little mom and pop joint where you see the cook chargrilling up burgers(love that smell!) and frying bird. The two piece ($4.89),with Texas Toast, Fries and Slaw is one of the best deals in a town that consistantly gets more expensive to eat out in. Only drawback is to this place is no credit cards are taken.
Pros: Fried Chicken, Cool 70's Atmosphere
Cons: No Credit Cards
