Some of the University of Texas' most beloved institutions cannot be found on campus or in its orientation brochure. Dirty Martin's Place, a staple for students and Central Austinites since 1926, still serves the same hamburgers, fries and shakes that made it popular in the '20s. Dirty's signature item -- the oddly named "Kum-bak" hamburger -- is a greasy beef patty and a buttered bun with assorted dressings. Other offerings include beer and such diner favorites as chicken-fried steak, pork chops, egg sandwiches, onion rings, salads and grilled chicken sandwiches.

This spot's filled with UT memorabilia spanning most of the 20th century, and you can sit in booths or at the counter (if you're looking for an authentic diner experience). Still in its original location, Dirty's is within walking distance of UT, as well as the West Campus and North University neighborhoods. -- Chip Rankin

Huts is definitely not even in the top 10. Dirtys is absolutely the best burger in Austin. Have you tried the DH Special? The shakes? the Fried Pickles? Coldest beer in town. Awesome patio to hang out on.

My girlfriend loves this place to get her bacon grease on! Neat place to get your fix for "bad for you" food...So go ahead and indulge.

can't beat the OT special.
The tough choice is fries (very good), onion rings, (some of the best in town) or tator-tot's (just reminds you of grade school)
And those shakes! made the olf fashioned way!
Dirty's is the complete package!
