I spontaneously checked out this spot for breakfast and I was pleasantly surprised! Even though we didn't have a reservation and it was pretty packed, we were able to get seated right away and service was great. Everyone was always really attentive! The booths and decor were cute and I appreciated how unique the menu was too. I really enjoyed the nitro salted caramel latte (but wish it was bigger for the price!) My partner's matcha pineapple drink was also awesome. The food itself was pretty good but again portions didn't feel too big. So 2 plates and maybe a side to share would probably make sense if you are coming in hungry. I'll be back! read more

We are regulars here and love the place! Great atmosphere, amazing service both at the bar and dining room, food is always creative, and absolutely delicious. Rita was our server this visit, and she rocked!! read more

So i read somewhere that a cafe was going to take over the former Foxtrot location off Burnet and it was an australian inspired all day cafe. I wasn't sure what all day meant - all day breakfast? Well not quite. It's an all day restaurant and so the menu changes from breakfast (brekkie) to lunch/dinner. I think most of the reviews so far are on the breakfast menu so i wasn't sure what to expect for dinner. I came right after happy hour after 6 so i wasn't expecting them to be busy since they just announced they were opening and luckily this place is smart and hasn't invited every food influencer here so i'm hoping this place will be build up popularity organically. They seem to be positioned well for an all day neighborhood restaurant as i was scanning they have specials during the week from a Wednesday wings and wine, Thursday chicken parm, and Fridays for steak frites. The restaurant definitely has a 1970s vibes so you might feel like you are in Austin back in the time of Dazed and Confused. I liked the aesthetic allot. The staff is new and training but they did a pretty good job. Was welcomed when i came in and had the option to sit at the bar or a table. As for drink, they have cocktails as well as special fluffy / whipped cocktails. I got the fluffy pineapple margarita and loved the frothy texture of the cocktail. It was a very tasty drink. For food, I got the steak frites and for $29 i thought it was good value compared to other restaurants in town where this dish is over $30. Its also only $19 on Fridays. The steak frites came with chimchurri sauce too and aioli to dip your fries in. The steak was a meaty cut and i felt satisfied after finishing my meal. Will definitely come here again and try their breakfast; its in the area so i am excited to add this place to my rotation. Also they did a good job transforming this place from an upscale connivence store to an all day cafe. read more

Came here for a Friday breakfast/brunch with a friend. All of the photos made me interested to try. Like most restaurants on Burnet parking is stiff and lots are pretty small so get in where you fit in. We were seated quickly. This is not the place for large groups, the vibe is boutique diner so tables are close and don't dare think you will have a private conversation...you're so close to each other. The ambiance is so charming and the bar is open seating so you can get the true cafe feel. The menu is overwhelming even with no pictures. I chose chicken and waffles but subbed the waffle for French toast. My fav takeaway is the buttery maple syrup. I was disappointed in the chicken portion. The meal was about $17 and it was served with a chicken cutlet. Not wings or a breast which would have made up for the price point. The tables a very small and everything is served on individual plates so it was awkward trying to manage our food. I wish the service was better. Our server was overly chatty to other tables and staff and our hot drinks sat at the pick up area so long they came to the table cold. I had to send it back and request a remake. Even then the server never checked on the drink. When our food was up I had to ask that it be brought over. We also had a burger and each a single pancake. With the sticky meals I made a request for paper towels or napkins twice that never came. I had to use salt and pepper packets in my purse because that also never came. It was not overly busy I just feel our server was not attentive and maybe not very competent. At the end we sat and waited for a check to then find while we were still sitting at the table the server started clearing and wiping our table...WHERE IS THE CHECK!!!??? Everything was more important than pleasing the customer. Outside of the bad server the food was great. I'd come back but I'd immediately ask for a different server who did less chatting and paid attention to orders up and customer needs like napkins, drink orders, and the check. read more

I was really excited for this Australian cafe to open in austin, as someone who loves australian coffee. We admired the aesthetic and our server was sweet. After waiting 30 min for our food and coffee, we both agreed it was kinda disappointing meal. The hashbrowns and eggs were way too oily and salty. The steak was over cooked and low quality meat. Coffee was okay. Hope they figure it out. read more

Plenty of sweet & savory options, a plethora of bevs and has a chill vibe. I had their pastrami Eggs benny which reminded me of warm biltong and the hollandaise sauce was the best I've ever had. They're still fairly new and working out some kinks, but overall it's a ''must try". read more

Food and service was great! Had Rita as our server who was great! Great breakfast and lunch options and super nice decor and ambiance.

We heard good things about this place and I wanted to love it but from the time we walked in me and my husband was completely ignored by more than 7 people before we were acknowledged and they were not busy. When we were finally approached the lady that approached us was nice and attentive. Our waitress was nice and friendly but she was manning a lot of tables for some reason. The food was pretty but ok. I got the original pancakes with a side of scrambled eggs. The pancakes came with strawberries, blueberries, bananas and syrup. The syrup was mixed with butter and it was a little too much butter which was off putting if you don't like a lot of butter. The pancakes were fluffy looking but tasted like a version of jiffy cornbread. I ate the fruit. The eggs were not scrambled really. I just felt like they put them in a bowl, scrambled with fork and put them on the grill but forgot to scramble them a little bit to cook the top of the eggs and then plated. The top of eggs was wet. I'm not a fan of raw eggs which happen to come out after I was done trying the pancakes and fruit. The ambiance was pretty in teal the music was perfectly light. It was my Birthday and I wanted pictures of all and everything that I ate it didn't disappoint in that aspect but they should water the plants. read more

We had a fantastic experience at Citizens All Day in Austin! The fluffy pancakes were absolutely incredible--light, soft, and perfectly cooked. The real standout was the butter pancake syrup, which was so rich and delicious it took the whole dish to another level. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the staff made us feel right at home. Highly recommend stopping by if you're in Austin and craving a great breakfast! #toddlerfriendly read more

Imani is the best this place is lit and the happy hour is awesome. Service is super awesome and so is the food. highly recommended

Great ambience, very unique take on food and drinks, and a lively place! I'm glad we found it!

Waited almost 2 hours for our food on a busy Sunday brunch rush. The vibe felt chaotic like their system wasn't perfected quite yet, which can take time but the food and drinks were mediocre and did not make the wait worth while. read more

Like warm beer? Sold out specials at 6pm? Slow service? This is the place for you! Pivoted to the burger which was ok, but nothing special. read more

Thought we'd try the new place in the neighborhood. The place is cute, but it is really tight seating and was clammy hot like if they had air conditioning issues. Sat at the bar and it seemed like nobody wanted to attend to us. Took them a bit to clear the old plates in front of us. Ordered 2 breakfast plates which were small and expensive. $17.50 for an egg sandwich didn't add up! They also have grab and go tacos that were literally the size of cigar. Seemed like a rolled up tortilla.Don't see myself ever coming back read more

Best HH in ATX! Fantastic drink specials. Good food. Ask for Imani. She'll take great care of you.

Rita was great and very helpful ! The food was great too. One thing i would suggest is colder or ice, otherwise we love this place

we loved our experience here! the food was SO good! Our server Imani was so kind and very attentive. We will be back!

This place is outstanding! I was really impressed with their menu of food and drink options. The pulled pork benny was super good and it filled me. The fresh juice concoctions are delicious too. The staff is also very friendly and attentive. Our table enjoyed our time with Ailani and Vic. Thanks for a great brunch! read more

I see the vision. Slightly expensive, slightly over salted don't get me wrong. This place has good food for sure but there's something weird about it. read more

Caesar salad was yummy and the steak frites were good, but a little too much butter for this gal. Rita was a great server!

So yum, you need the blueberry pancakes and Arian is 100000000/10 server. The vibe is cute, and i really like the pressed juice- the green one is the best read more

We came in on a Sunday with no reservation and still got seated right away. We sat outside which was very nice a good place to have conversations. We ordered the shakshuka and it was very good it was a bit bitter for me but that's how is supposed to be. The Bloody Mary was strong in terms of spice so I did have to add water to it. read more

I'll have to figure out when to come when it's not busy. Somehow managed it upon my first actual visit, but usually when I pass by (and it's open) Citizens looks jammed. Parking is pretty limited, but I've managed to find a spot on the lot every time. The layout is pretty open, and I'm a blue fan; but, I'd prefer to keep sitting out on the deck. This place will definitely be on the comfort food/brunch list. I enjoyed the classic breakfast with salmon, but my favorite is the oats and berries dish--Blueberry & Coconut Bircher Muesli. I definitely want to try the french toast my mom had at some point. (Syndney was a great host to us when Mom indulged on her birthday. ;)). The little corner I tried was tasty, so I think it was just a good choice in general. ;p read more

The food was very good and the ambiance was good -- great place for a brunch date. However, the service was crazy slow. It took like 30 minutes to get our coffees and an hour to get our food. Meanwhile the parties next to us, who were bigger parties that arrived 20-30 min later than us, got their food way sooner. So I don't know if what we ordered just takes longer? It was also Saturday at brunch time so probably peak hour. If you have time to spare, would recommend! read more

Amazing and friendly staff. Wonderful food. had a great brunch. mimosas, coffee, and pancakes were heavenly

The slowest and most underwhelming place. Waited 15 minutes for a bowl of granola to go. Cute inside but it's all superficial.

We had a fantastic family brunch at Citizen's All Day! Not only was the food so fresh and tasty, our server, Christopher, provided the best service! He was kind, attentive, and so great with kids. He made the experience phenomenal. We will definitely come back! read more

Great experience. Rita was an amazing server. We will definitely be back. The desserts were fantastic.

Long wait. Crowded. Was sat by the door on a small piece of crap table during a storm. Asked to be moved and was refused. 2 eggs were good but hash browns were not cooked properly. One was burnt and the other was undercooked. read more

We've been to Citizens for breakfast, lunch, and coffee. It's consistently delicious food. The staff are friendly and attentive. Austin was our server today and he was great. It's become one of our neighborhood favorites for sure read more

Went to Citizens last week and was pleasantly surprised. Food is healthy and has a different flare, having an Australian influence. I ordered the avocado toast and had the blue matcha & lavender latte and the green goddess smoothie. Everything tasted really good and will come back. read more

Service was amazing, food was amazing. You need to go here! Will was a great server. We had the BBQ pulled pork Benedict and it was so good!

All the food here was delicious! I came with a group for a birthday celebration, and I thoroughly enjoyed the sides we shared (fries), but the muesli was the highlight. I don't think I've ever enjoyed a healthy breakfast so much, although the Australian style coffee (basically an affogato) probably cancelled that out. read more
