Restaurant details
Reviewed 15 October 2018 via mobile

My absolute favorite burger joint in the city of Austin. I don’t know where to start, the home made onion rings (killer), the home made toasted wheat bun, or the home made chili for the frito pie or chili cheese fries, or chili cheese burger.

My absolute favorite item on the menu is the Crispy tacos. They MAKE their own taco shells!! It’s not in the best part of town, but it’s SO GOOD! Please do yourself a favor and GO! Be sure to tell Tina (Owners daughter) that Steven From PromiseLand sent you.

***DON’T LEAVE WITHOUT TRYING THEIR SOFT SERVE ICE-CREAM**

The only reason they don’t get 5 stars from me is because their restroom is outside around back. Other than that, this place is CLASSIC AUSTIN!! They will make you feel like family every time you go! Also ask for a Hillberts T-Shirt!

Lived in Austin for decades and never noticed this place. It's great for juicy burgers for kids and lean chicken burgers for aging golden oldies like me. Owner Hillbert Maldonado will greet you as his long lost friend. Nothing was too much trouble. Incredible shakes. Made with real butter fat ice cream and whole milk. How does McDonalds survive with a place like this around is all I can ask? Enjoy. You will. And if you have a problem don't write it here. Talk to Hillbert. He'll fix it for darn sure. What a guy! He makes and serves himself. None of this delegation management stuff here What a great place. I'm coming back y'all!

The burgers here are the draw nice greasy spoon burgers. The fries were nice and crisp. Tried the mozzarella cheese sticks too, that I regret not well breaded and lacked flavor. The building itself is run down but clean.

The burgers are fantastic and the fries are even better. The service is fast and the people are nice. The food was delicious and everyone in the family found something they liked. We will be back to this place if we are ever in the neighborhood. It looks a little different but it is very clean.

This is the kind a halfhearted mom and pop fast food place seen in small towns across America. Austin has several mini-chains like this. Go to Dan's instead. Hilberts is bland and bleow average on every level
