    I think it's called the scrambler ?? Or the rattler?? It's yummy!! It's rich in flavor, sizeable portion, no disappoint here!!

    I started coming about 3 months ago and have been back 6 times since. The food is absolutely delicious and consistent. The service is great every single time. Highly recommend!

    Hi, good people. Happy Saturday... again, as every day is Saturday. Today is Saturday #1. How do I start? A quick jaunt up to Celina. Got the hungries so pop open Yelp to see where you would eat. You lead me to the star of Celina, the Celina Star Cafe. Enter the door, and the spot is hopping. Super small town, but everyone is here. This is the brunch spot. Nice, trendy, warm feel to it. The crowd is a mix of every generation. Fully staffed. Sat quickly, drink order taken almost immediately. So far, running on all cylinders. Meal came out within 10 minutes of oyr ordering. I meant to take pics, but it was so appealing, I ate. I ordered hash browns crispy, with crispy onions. For once in my brunch or breakfast experience, the onions were deep friend brown, caramelized perfection. It was as if they looked into my brain, saw what I meant, duplicated it. Okay so the food was perfect. Service is another story. It wasn't perfect. Go up a level from perfect. It was familial. Like you are a close relative. They almost have everyone on the floor check on every table in the building. They rove and check on you so you don't feel the need to need. 6 star spot. I hope your weekend goes as well as this meal.

    "This is the first Texas pancake I've had that was worthwhile." - The Husband, 5/30/22 This was a delight to find. Tasty. Light. Everything was consistent; nothing was heavy or over-salted. Fair warning that the "thee egg omelette" is more like six! They had Lavazza coffee, which is very pleasant. It's clean (thank you for wiping the seats!), some of the employees were masked and nobody minded that we were, and the staff was really helpful and friendly. We've definitely found a new breakfast spot.

    Classic breakfast

Pretty spacious place that offers a wide range of food and drink options. Everything we ordered tasted great, came out in a timely manner, and everyone devoured what they had. We ordered a pepperoni flatbread, which was crispy and the perfect portion. The Mac and cheese had far more flavor than I expected and was eaten without a fuss and in its entirety (for a kid, that's a feat). The burger was simple, but great. The wings were extra crispy, and the different drinks were tasty as well. Our server was fantastic and we will certainly be back one evening.

Its located in the same parking lot as the elementary school and is the only restaurant/bar in the parking lot. Upon walking in you'll see the bar and plenty of seating as well as a patio. Since we came in the middle of the week on a late afternoon we pretty much had the place to ourselves. Our waitress came over who was really sweet and had that southern Texas charm. I ordered the elote with homemade tortilla chips, gluten free Mac n cheese and my mom got a flatbread. Hands down that mac n cheese was the best I ever had, it was so creamy but not over powering with that bold cheese flavor and it was made with gf penne pasta (I know a little weird.. but it was the only gf noodle choice I had). If you don't have an allergy I'm sure the regular noodles are just as good! So if you want that comfort food that Texas is known for, this is the place to check out if you're in Celina.

You have to seat yourself - there were enough vacant tables to pick from. Within a few minutes, our server was over and helped us narrow down on what we wanted to order. I went for a Crushed Velvet Mule in addition to Cali, Buffalo (both grilled versions) and Burg B Q. We told our server that between me and my wife, we will be sharing the chicken sandwich and hence requested that it be sliced into 2. Not only were the burgers sliced, it was served in separate plates with sides as well - that was a really nice touch. Cali was a bit bland, Buffalo and Burg B Q were both really nice. The drink was nice as well. There was live music but we were seated near a table that was pretty boisterous, could hardly hear anything. The outdoor seating overlooking greenery and events they do at the restaurant make the place quite different - we will definitely be back soon to try other options on the menu.

I went with the meatloaf since I kept seeing people call it the best thing on the menu, and they were right.

We also tried the pot roast, which was fall apart tender, and made room for the cobbler at the end even though we were stuffed.

The taco salad was just okay , my husband liked it more than I did, but it wasn't something I'd personally crave. The burger, however, was great ! The meat was cooked just right , juicy and tender. The French fries were very flavorful, though slightly on the oily side. For dessert, I tried the cheesecake brûlée and really enjoyed it. The top was nicely burnt, just the way it should be. I also ordered the sangria , I have to say it wasn't really my taste, but my husband liked it since it was on the stronger side. Overall, a good experience and I wouldn't be opposed to coming back .
