Austin - Informal Dining Near Capitol, Campus?

I’ll be visiting Austin with the family and I’m looking for informal breakfast, burger, or BBQ spots in the area, especially short drive or walking distance. I think we have the taco spots covered but looking for local recommendations in other food groups. Thanks!

We did a few places in the Domain and it was enjoyable. Avoid the Punchbowl Social though.

Third for Terry Black’s. It’s pricey but I open my wallet every time.

Magnolia Cafe on Congress. Good food and atmosphere.

Jeans are formal attire in Austin and in the summer you can go pretty much anywhere in shorts. Was unusually hot yesterday at 110.
Casino el Camino on 6th St has great burgers. Lots of food TV shows visit if you want to watch to see what's up. These are bigger burgers with more than lettuce/tomato/pickle options. It's a dive bar at night but they do a good lunch business.
Crown & Anchor is across the street from campus on the north side. Great simple/classic burgers.
BBQ- Rollin Smoke food trailer on E 12th. It's in a food trailer park with lots of shaded seating and parking. The mexican trailer there called Cuantos Tacos is great, too. Haven't tried the burger truck or others yet. You can BYOB.
Breakfast- Cisco's on E 6th. Old school Austin and they claim to have invented Huevos Rancheros. There's a parking lot across E 6th St. Free off street parking downtown is becoming hard to find.
