Had a wonderful breakfast. Chefs Abi & Josh made me an incredible Breakfast Bowl with Brisket. Jim & Jenny made me a Chai tea. Enjoyed the atmosphere and the conversation. Lots of great people here at the Blue Lacy! Highly recommend the hotel and this reataurant!! read more

Date day... We discovered the Origin Hotel Austin (retro hotel) while heading to Blue Lacy, a Texas-inspired comfort food restaurant with an old diner vibe and pet-friendly patio. Friends recommended their milkshakes, so we tried Cookies and Cream and Texas crunch...both were delicious. Blue Lacy has a laid-back atmosphere with a casual vive. Service was good and friendly. read more

Great service by Isiah Got a cappuccino, pineapple juice, breakfast bowl, salmon toast- everything was great No wait on a Saturday brunch Will be back! read more

We were looking for a casual and quick place to dine on a Friday night. Blue Lacy looked to be this place. That Friday, the place was empty, only 2 tables occupied. We were seated and served very quickly. Which is what we wanted. Food wise, it's really meh. I ordered a Blue Lacy cocktail, which immediately reminded me of Windex. And I guess I could not get passed that image. It didn't taste good to me. My turkey BLT was just okay. I am a fries girl, I was excited to try theirs. But the fries was underwhelming. It was really like one reviewer said, they know how to prep dishes from frozen. I supposed we got what we were looking for: casual and quick dinner. read more

Great Brunch place! I ordered the spinach mushroom omelette. It had the perfect ingredient amount, I was worried that there would be to much spinach but was so happy that it wasn't the case. The hubby enjoyed the pancakes as well. The service was just ok. We also enjoyed the vibe of the place! read more

Kids eat free, so there's that after a visit to the thinkery; otherwise, I really don't see any need to visit this place. When comparing to a Denny's or an IHOP, I would rank Blue Lacy just a grade below in terms of taste. Restaurant vibes are fine, the menu is just uninspired and the food was very average. Price was okay for the location. Would I Go Out of My Way to Try? No Would I Return? No Food Taste- 4/10 Ambiance - 7/10 Service - 6/10 Value- 6/10 read more

Blue Lacy is part of a hotel called Origins, and though I have never stayed at the hotel, I did have breakfast here a couple of times. They have a breakfast bowl that is really great. You can get it with a few different meat options, including, of course, brisket. It has an avocado sauce, eggs, cheese, and hashbrowns. It's filling! The waffles are good too. They do a chocolate-covered strawberry espresso that is yum times ten. I haven't tried any of the breakfast cocktails, but I'm interested in trying a Bloody Mary next time. read more

This place was fine... The service was definitely good and they were attentive, but overall the food was just average. They also do not have a lot of variety on their menu. Easy to get in and out of though because they're not super busy when everyone else is. read more

good vibes, food and service. We will recommend this place to our friends. Had an amazing time

Cool little Mueller spot my friend and I found for brunch on Sunday! Decor is really eclectic: fancy water glasses, simple furniture, bright colors etc. I couldn't really come up with a theme, but I was ok with that. Same with the food. Diner seems to be the best description, I think. They only serve breakfast on Sundays. We thought it was breakfast all day or regular menu, but that's not the case. Luckily, breakfast was good! I had the smoked salmon bagel and was pretty pleased. I prefer smoked salmon to be served cold, but they served it like warm. Maybe not the best presentation, but the flavor was good. The bagel was also chewy in the most positive way possible! The tomato relish could have had a little more flavor, but it still added to the dish. It might have been overpowered by the generous amount of dill cream cheese. Service was fantastic! Efficient and friendly. Can't ask for more! read more

Fantastic food!!!! Stopped here with kiddos for lunch and everyone was raving about the food!! The vibe is also soooo cute!!! read more

The Good: My omelet was tasty and my hash brown crispy (the way I like them). The space was cute. The Not So Good: The coffee The Ugly: I think they were short staffed but our food didn't appear until we asked for it 45 minutes later. In fairness, they did take a percentage off our check (ergo the 3 stars). read more

Raven and Robert were amazing!! So nice and helpful! He deserves a raise he has a great vibe!! :) Will be back next time we visit!

Came from GA to visit and Stopped at this location after visiting Thinkery.. great idea. The restaurant is such a cute vibe. Restrooms look and smell great. There is even a little play area for kids while waiting on food. So we started off our orders with two bloody Mary's one with gin one with vodka, a pineapple mimosa and oj and apple juice. For entrees, we got: waffles, omelette, bacon, eggs and hasbrowns. Everything was absolutely delicious. No complaints.. the staff exhibited great customer service. And very hospitable. Would definitely recommend and return. read more

REVIEW FOR DOG MENU ONLY: I've been wanting to try Blue Lacy for a while, and the biggest selling point for me was their menu for dogs! I was excited to give it a shot, but after reading several reviews on multiple occasions, I could only muster ordering meals for my fur kids. Our waitress was super friendly & loved on our dogs! We ordered two dog meals (splitting one between our two small dogs and one for our husky), and they were obsessed. The meal had quinoa, rice, peas, carrots, blueberries, and chicken and devoured every last bite. Unfortunately, I was surprised to find the food cold and not fresh!! While I'm not sure how long Blue Lacy will be around, I really appreciated them taking care of our pups! More places in Austin should follow their lead--this is the only spot in Austin I found that serves food to dogs! read more

This place has happy hour every day. We had $7 margaritas and half off appetizers. The cauliflower bites, fries and mozzarella sticks were very good. The sliders and margs were good too. Service wasn't that great though and we sat outside so I never went inside to see the restaurant. Was great though and will come back! read more

I'd never heard of this place until I discovered it on a stroll around Mueller, and my friend and I decided to give it a try for our weekly Sunday brunch. They serve breakfast all day and the breakfast menu was small, and to my mind pretty run-of-the-mill. It all seemed a bit pricey to me, but I am cheap and still not fully resigned to the fact that even a basic breakfast tends to be $15 these days. I ordered a breakfast bagel. It cost a mere $12, but when my plate arrived, it felt pretty skimpy. It consisted of a plain egg bagel, an egg fried hard (which I dislike, but no one had asked), hashbrowns that were not brown (but they were cooked through and fairly tasty), some smoked Gouda, and two slices of very good bacon. But the kicker, and my friend, and I both laughed about it, was the side of fruit. it was basically a thimble of three blueberries, two small chunks of strawberry, and two very thin slices of pineapple. It seemed ridiculously tiny. My friend was happy with her Breakfast Bowl--perfectly soft-scrambled eggs, more of that good bacon, undercooked hash browns, and a little bit of avocado "crema." The service was friendly but quite slow, even though the place was the opposite of crowded. They validate parking for the nearby McBee parking garage, which was nice. Austin has so many places for brunch. Some of them have very good prices for good food. Some of them have higher prices for exquisite food. Some of them have menu items that are so unusual or so good, you just have to come back. But as my friend and I walked away from Blue Lacey, we agreed that we agreed that although it was pleasant enough, neither of us felt any desire to come back. read more

Great atmosphere and location. Menu options are great and drag brunch on Saturday's is so fun!!

Lovely service, scrumptious breakfast, cute decor however they did play the same synth pop song on a loop the entire time we were there which made me feel a little crazy but was a nice experience nonetheless. read more

We had such a good dinner last night at Blue Lacy. I'm so surprised at their low rating. They are not a high end restaurant but their food is good and they have a rotating happy hour that's Mon-Fri 5-7pm. My dirty martini was $7 and we had half off appetizers and our ribeye steak frites was only $18. It was a great deal for decent food and the service was fantastic. I was sad to see that it's not as busy as it should be for the location they're at but there were people we could tell from the hotel and a lot of single people having dinner. It's such a nice place in a great location. read more

So yummy! Great vibes. Great service. Good patio! Love it. Thanks yall! They're nice to dogs too!

This is my weekly spot after working out around the corner! Originally started coming here just for a coffee, but stayed for the cozy atmosphere, attentive and kind staff, and great breakfast. Special shout out to Jim, Thani, Chef Melissa, & Chef Josh for taking care of us each week! read more

We visited Blue Lacy for happy hour on a Friday. We were the only ones in the restaurant for a while so it was kind of awkwardly quiet. I ordered the Power Bowl as a vegan option and it was very underwhelming. I had to substitute the Avocado Crema for balsamic vinegar and overall the plate was really lacking flavor. Our server was pleasant and accommodating for dietary restrictions, but was forgetful and our wine bottle took a long time to come out. The happy hour deals were strong, but likely would pick a different spot in Mueller next time. read more

Blue Lacy was a great breakfast spot during my stay. The food was really delicious (the breakfast sandwich especially) and all of the staff-- Jim, Carmel, Jenny, Isaiah, Chef Tarek, and Hashish -- were attentive and kind. Excellent service and will certainly be back next time I am in Austin! read more

I had the Gouda Bacon Burger with the fried egg and it was outstanding- very high quality ingredients. Alejandra provided exceptional service with a smile. If you want high quality food, excellent service with a relaxing ambiance, Blue Lacey will hit the spot. read more

Great service and great coffee. Was greeted when I walked in and just ordered a coffee and they were more than welcoming. The coffee was also very well made. It was also very clean, as you can see the cooking area at the diner. The food being made looked very appetizing. read more

I was invited by a sweet friend of mine to my first drag brunch at the Blue Lacy, and I have to say that the experience was nothing short of over the top entertainment in the best way possible. The food and service were great too, as were the cocktails. To eat, I had the power bowl and added two poached eggs to it. When mixed altogether, it was pure magic. I paired my meal with the Good Girl cocktail - it's so good it leaves you wanting more! Plus, you can never go wrong with coconut and lime in my book. And it definitely set the mood for the show which was packed with sarcasm, humor, and moves like Jagger. Yeah....I'm sure this won't be my last time! read more

Great service, delicious food and drinks and relaxing atmosphere. We will definitely be back

Very friendly place and great food. The waiters Brittany, Jim and Carmel were the Best and my 8 year gave Chef Tarek 5 stars.

We have enjoyed two breakfasts since checking into the Origins Hotel. The food was delicious and the service was spectacular--we had no wait time! The Decor is as cute as possible too! Would reccommend to anyone in the Murrell area! read more

Came here for a happy drink and snack. I was thrown off by the sprinkles in my glass but they went well with the frose. Texas fries aka chili cheese fries were filling but tasty. My 2nd drink was a tropical one, it was good just a little too sweet. Can't say I would drink more than 1. The ambiance is great for hanging out or having dinner. There were couches and a great patio to chill on once it's cooler. read more

Love coming here when we visit Austin. Everyone is so friendly, Austin style, and the food is delicious. I especially love the power bowl

Currently this place sits at a 2 1/2 star rating which normally would have me steering clear. However, my morbid sense of curiosity got a hold of me thinking that maybe my visit will be better than those one and two star reviews. It's quite apparent they spent some money building this high ceiling modern interior establishment. There's not a lot of street parking available, so you'll probably have to use the parking garage across the way for two dollars an hour. It turns out this place and the Origin Hotel next-door will not validate your parking ticket. We got here during the Monday noon lunch hour rush, and we were the only other couple in the building apart from one person using Wi-Fi in the back. I was surprised that they had such a very limited food menu, although you can order food for your dog. Personally, I think adding dog food to the menu is not exactly a brilliant idea (it conjures all kinds of ideas as to what's going on in the kitchen). We started off with two glasses of water, (no straws and lip prints on rim). I ordered the chocolate shake which came with a nice big straw, but unfortunately it was more like chocolate milk than ice cream and it was $7! I had the Nolan Ryan burger, which comes with one slice of unmelted American cheese and no pickles. It was good, just not amazing. My friend had the fairly salty chicken sandwich. Their fries are actually very tasty. Two things that stand out, they have a full bar with some craft beers along with wine and they actually use real silverware and cloth napkins. Being the only other couple in the place, our service was attentive. At least we can say we didn't fall into the one to two star ranking, but this was not a four or five star experience either. As many other yelpers have already said, there's plenty of other places to try within a short walk of this place, but it works if you're expectations aren't too high. Plenty of photos included to highlight this review. read more

I absolutely love this place! What a gem. Great atmosphere, with outdoor seating if you prefer. Service was excellent, food was great, price was delightful. Breakfast all day! Happy hour was fabulous. Hard to find cocktails for under $10 that are actually good anywhere in Austin these days. Blue Lacy is it! We tried going last night again, but word to the wise, they are closed evenings Tuesday (and Wednesday, I think?) I didn't realize it was part of a hotel until I wrote this review. Very fun yet relaxing and thoughtful decor. Oh - they also do a "buy an adult plate, get child free" as per a sign advertisement. Highly recommend!! read more

Best place to get breakfast. Alejandra is a great sever and very attentive. I am excited for the next drag brunch they host.

Excellent staff, delicious food. Gem hidden in Mueller. Great for kids with their toy box and play area

From the moment I walked in, I was blown away by the atmosphere--chic, modern, and effortlessly cool. The boutique vibe is on point, with thoughtful details in the decor that make the whole space feel welcoming and stylish. The service was absolutely top-notch. The entire staff -Chef Thaw, and rest of team Sonya & Josh were great! But Jim, who waited on us made sure we were well taken care of- friendly, attentive, and genuinely passionate about what he does! Felt like more than a customer here and the great meal we had to top it off! Oh, and great place if you're in the area for coffee too!!! Will be back! I love finding spots that feel unique, and this place delivers in every way. Whether you're stopping by to cool off or treating yourself, you're in for a great experience. Highly recommend! Food was great! Will be back! read more
