About Buddha Burger
Buddha Burger began in Austin with a philosophy grounded in purity and simplicity. The brand is obsessed with serving high-quality, fresh burgers in an industry dominated by quantity and frozen product. The practice distinguishes itself through uncompromising beef sourcing and in-house preparation.
Burgers are ground daily in-house using ancient culinary techniques, with ultra-premium Black Angus beef sourced from farmers using proprietary DNA tracing technology. Each burger can be traced back to the individual cattle it came from. They season beef only with salt, letting the quality speak for itself. The Pflugerville location opened to serve the expanding Austin metro area with the same exacting standards.
Beyond beef, the menu spans chicken, vegetarian options including mushroom melt and vegan black bean patties, hand-made milkshakes using premium Ghirardelli chocolate, and house-made desserts. Menu items reference Buddhist philosophy (Big Buddha, Laughing Buddha, The Monk) reflecting the mindfulness and intentionality at the brand's core.
