To be honest, we’ve picked up burgers from this place countless times because it’s so convenient—their online ordering for pickup is super fast. The first time we tried their onion rings, they were just okay, but either that was a one-time miss or they’ve seriously improved since then. We gave them another shot and they were crispy perfection—extra crunchy on the outside with perfectly cooked onions inside. We love their smashed-style patties (chunky ground beef with a great balance of meat and fat). My all-time favorite is still the Holy Smokes—a double cheeseburger with deep-fried jalapeños—while my husband usually goes for the double hamburger. We also tried the crispy chicken Buddha, which was surprisingly good with a crispy exterior and tender, juicy meat. The only downside is that the food does lean a bit on the salty side, including both the burgers and the onion rings. Overall, Buddha Burger delivers every time we’re craving simple, good burgers and onion rings.

I used to eat this chicken sandwich all the time, so I was very surprised when I ordered it recently and saw how different it was. The chicken was sliced so thin that the breading wouldn’t even adhere to it. As you can see in the pictures some spots have no chicken at all and it’s coming apart. It was essentially a breading sandwich instead of a chicken sandwich. Either management has changed or they’re trying to cut costs, but this is not the way to do it. The quality has clearly gone downhill. Unfortunately, after this experience, I won’t be coming back.

In a gas station - ✅ Limited seating - ✅ In Pflugerville Texas - ✅ This place has everything it needs to be a terrible restaurant. And let me tell you they overcome everything going against them. This is THE BEST burger in Pflugerville (Which isnt saying much) but it’s a top 5 Fast Casual burger joint in the Austin Metro. I am extremely impressed. Keep it up. Also pictures do this burger ZERO justice.
