It was a beautiful afternoon in Gainesville when I decided to try this food truck / picnic table spot for the first time! Miguel kindly explained my options and took my order. I provided my cell number so he could text me when it was ready. The estimate was only 15 minutes (there were people in front of me) but the food was ready in ten. We enjoyed our Oklahoma burgers. Smash cast iron onion style with pickles and sauce and more is a good thing! The fries were fresh and salty but next time, I will order extra crispy. I always like to try the default first before customizing. Life is good with a tasty burger on a sunny day!

Hands down - one of the best burgers in Gainesville. I decided to stop by their pop up location at Cymplify Coffee on Thursday afternoon. The service was super welcoming and I love how they educated you on the fact their burgers are smashed and how you should order based on your hunger level. Last time I had the Oklahoma burger, so this time I decided to go with a classic burger with white cheddar cheese and an order of small fries. Since I wasn't starving I went with a single. Once my food was ready they brought it to my car. I rushed home so I could indulge in the goodness of DJ's. I was so excited as my first experience was pretty good. Again, the first bite was amazing. The burger is perfectly seasoned and smashed where there's a nice crust on the outer edges. Also the freshness of the toppings also make a huge difference. I'm a lover of pickles, I really like their bread and butter pickles because it gives the burger a good tangy bite where I feel like a dill pickle would give the burger too much of a bite. I think in addition to their sauce, everything just compliments each other very well. The fries were perfectly crispy and fresh also. I look forward to stopping by DJ's at their next pop up spot or home location.

My friends and I visited DJ's Cast Iron Burgers on a Friday evening and really enjoyed it! We came here the Friday after Hurricane Helene hit, so most things in Midtown were closed due to loss of power. But, thankfully DJ's was open! Located in a little "food truck park" in midtown, it is in a great location. They are not too far from campus and the various bars in Midtown. Their hours are also ideal for late nights. There are some seating options available, but it is limited. Parking could be tricky. The menu is very simple, they serve smash burgers made on a cast iron skillet and fries. Ordering was effortless and the service was very nice. You will receive a text when your order is being wrapped up and one when it is ready. I will say, the wait could be long. I received my burger about 15 minutes after ordering. But my friends had to wait 30 plus minutes. It appears the orders come out in rounds. I received my order around the same time as several customers in front of me. While my friends ended up waiting longer and received their orders with other customers behind us.I ended up ordering the DJ's Oklahoma Onion Burger and the DJ's Dirty Fries. The Oklahoma Onion burger included two thin, crispy patties cooked on a cast iron, served with cheese, charred onions, DJ's pickles, and DJ's sauce. This was an exceptional burger! The patties were super thin and smashed to perfection. Paired with the sauce, onions, and pickles, chefs kiss! The sauce wasn't too overpowering, the the onions added a slight sweetness, and the pickles added a little tang. I also loved the buttery bun it was served on. This burger was a hit. I will note, the burgers are not huge. I got a double and it wasn't as filling compared to other double burgers I've eaten. It was good, but just something to consider. The Dirty Fries included DJ's fries covered in cheese, DJ's chili, DJ's sauce, bacon, and pickled red onions. These were also quite tasty. I love the fact that they use white cheddar on both their burgers and fries, definitely adds to the flavor. The chili was savory and went very well with the smokiness of the bacon. I appreciated the cut of the fries too. A little messy, but I would definitely recommend! Overall, DJ's is a great food truck serving up some really tasty smash burgers. Located in the heart of Midtown, it is an ideal spot to grab some grub. Service is friendly, but the wait could be long depending on how busy it is. I also note the prices are a little steep. I ended up paying $21 for a burger and fries, not including tip. The burgers are really good and made with quality ingredients, but as I noted before they are not the most filling. And for the reason, I feel the prices are pretty high. I did really enjoy my burgers and fries and would recommend both things I ordered. Probably will be returning!

Hands down best burger I've had... fries had great flavor, but to be honest could be firmer/crispier for my tastes. DJ sauce was very good to go with them. I legitimately get CRAVINGS for DJ's burgers! Also love the picnic tables to sit and eat. Super nice staff as well.

Once a campus food truck on University, DJ's Cast Iron has now moved to a different spot by CYM. My first visit was a mix of highs and lows. I got a double patty burger with lettuce and tomato and it was very filling for lunch. The burger patties had a great crispiness, and the burger sauce was spot on. The fries were good, though the chili topping was very spice-forward--almost like taco meat--which made it a bit challenging to finish the chili fries. Service was relatively quick, parking was convenient, and prices were good overall. I'd definitely go back to give it another try.

DJ's cast iron is a new favorite spot for burgers! Cooked fresh and perfectly crispy! Plus you can't go wrong with their dirty fries! Their new spot at CYM Coffee is also super quick and convenient!

Hands down my favorite cast iron burger in town. They're probably one of my favorite food trucks in town. I literally had lunch saw them on the side of the road and said welp. Time for second lunch! The owner is incredibly friendly and welcoming and I wish I would've got a picture but truth is I was too excited to eat that I devoured my burger and fries.

Decided to check this food truck out for lunch- there was no line, but still recommend ordering online before going there to save time and avoid parking issues. As a first timer, i got double patty as recommended and it did not disappoint me for sure! The food is juicy, the fries reminded me of in and out fries from west coast.I plan to get triple next time

Slaps 10/10 and their new location is so much easier to get to on newberry road (in front of CYM coffee and the garden nursery). I did an online curbside order that took less than 20 minutes.

i stopped by today AT THE GAINESVILLE,FL LOCATION for the first time. I ordered the single burger and the dirty fries. the guy asked me if i wanted a double burger because the burgers are kind of small and i told him yes. my order was to go and when i arrived home, everything was fine until i took the burger out. the burger was a single burger and split in two. i am very disappointed in that because i was charged in total of $20.40. anyone would have noticed this. i had always driven past and said, let me stop and see what this is all about. someone owes me a burger. i have never seen anything like it. i was eating bread and condiments. i have a two star because i try to support up and coming businesses.
