Top Notch Hamburgers
Austin is one of the top hamburger capitals of America, and some of the best burger joints are those that haven't changed in decades. Top Notch is one of those places. In fact, it's so frozen in time that it was used as one of the locations in the movie Dazed and Confused -- a movie set in the 1970s.
A little old lady takes your order from behind the counter and men in trucker hats prepare your burger on a charcoal grill. The onion rings are cut right on site, and damn, does it make a difference. Not only are their burgers fantastic, but their onion rings are some of the best in town. Here are some pics.

Keep up the good work, buddy!

I have devoted the last few years to studying the Austin burger. My favorites include Fran's on South Congress, Dan's Hickory Burger and Dirty Martin's Burger Melt. I must try this Top Notch location.
I love Dan's, Fran's is okay, and Dirty's is not really for me. They make the top and bottom of the bun all greasy. Some people love it. I'm not one of them.
Another favorite of mine is Hut's, but that's a totally different style of burger.
