    Decker Cheeseburger and fries
    Veronica H.

    My Mom and I ordered the Decker combo burger with cheese and everything. The meal came with fries and a drink. Reasonably priced. The cheeseburger was so good and the fries crispy and delicious. The soda was good and fresh. The service was excellent and very friendly. The restaurant is more of an old school looking place with some R&B playing throughout. Donn's is a staple on 969. Love going there for a meal. They also have Blue Bell ice cream. It's a regular place my Mom and I go.

    Are used to live near Donns, but have moved out to Elgin. Was a frequent patron. Stopped in recently and was so happy to have Donns again. Always delicious and reasonable price. Love it.

    Three 3 Meat Combo

    The Waffle Breakfast plate might be the best deal on the menu. I forget how much it cost, but it was less than the Single Meat Plate. It will fill you up with a waffle, eggs, breakfast meat, and hash browns. However, you get what you pay for. The food itself was pretty forgettable. Eggs and ham were overcooked. The waffle was ok, but lost its crispness quickly. My fiancé and his family loved the Chicken they ordered. I wanted to steal some of their Macaroni and Cheese, but it's my fault I didn't just order that. Banana Pudding was a yummy finishing touch!

    Everything was delicious and the service was nice. Looking forward to trying their BBQ on my next visit. A little pricey but I enjoyed the breakfast

    The food here is so delicious! Fall off the bone ribs and you know I had to take a pint of sauce back to CO with us. Service was great and very fast. It's a nice and clean in and out kind of place. Can't wait to tell all the family here is TX how wonderful the food is. Also 10/10 sweet tea

    Brisket

    More like a hole in a wall restaurant. The meat here is good. I tried the sausage and briskets. The sides were not. The corn and the mash potato tasted plain. The rice was dry. The only decent side was the okra. There's a good amount of tables inside. There's free parking in front of the restaurant. The guy working there was really helpful. Overall, the price is really good.

    Just moved here after retiring from the military. Now back home & it's good to have a home cooked meal @ a restaurant.

    My husband and I came in today and the service was phenomenal, as was the food!…read more My husband got the Brisket Burrito... and it is life changing -- it is now a favorite and a pregnancy craving. Their fried chicken sandwich was audibly crisp with fresh tomato and lettuce that I made two meals out of. To end the perfect meal... my husband actually coordinated with staff to create "Gender Reveal" pancakes! I didn't realize what they were until I got to the yummy surprise! Their cream is delicious! The pancakes were soft and sweet! The experience, unforgettable. It brought happy tears to my eyes and we really appreciate the thought and care put into our day. We will DEFINITELY be repeat customers!

    My first experience here was amazing, which is why I was excited to come back for breakfast…read more Unfortunately, this visit was disappointing. I ordered the migas, and the amount of onions in the dish was overwhelming--so much so that it felt like I had ordered a plate of onions rather than migas. The masa cakes were definitely the standout item and were absolutely delicious. However, the rest of the dish fell short. The sauce was extremely rich, making it difficult to enjoy or finish the meal. That said, the restaurant itself is adorable, and our waiter was fantastic. The service and atmosphere were both great. While this breakfast wasn't a hit for me, I'll still return and stick with favorites like the fried green tomatoes and taquito salad, which were excellent during my previous visit.

Their burger is easily one of the best I've had in Austin, especially paired with their thin, crispy fries. It's my go-to order almost every time. One thing I love is that they switch up the steak portion of the menu a few times a year, and it never disappoints. Right now they have the steak au poivre, which is incredible, although I'm still craving their steak frites and hoping it makes a comeback. The escargot and French onion soup are also favorites of mine. At this point, June's has become a staple in our house--usually with a couple of Diet Cokes and either the burger or whatever steak they're featuring. A few of my friends swear by the chicken sandwich (fair warning: it can get a little messy!), the half roasted chicken, and the tuna crudo, so you really can't go wrong no matter what you order. On top of the amazing food, the staff is always incredibly kind and welcoming, which keeps us coming back. I definitely recommend making a reservation since it tends to get pretty busy, especially during peak hours.

    I dined at The Scarbrough for brunch during my stay in Austin. It was just a short, pleasant walk…read morefrom my hotel. The Scarbrough is located inside the Scarbrough Building lobby. They specialize in crepes. They have a handful of small tables as well as couch seating. You place your order at the counter then the staff brings it to you once it's ready. I ordered my go-to drink, an oat milk latte with honey and cinnamon as well as their Lox n' found croiffin. The latte was great. The Lox n' found croiffin comes with a toasted croissant roll, smoked salmon, ricotta, avocado, arugula, capers, pickled onions and dill. I added an egg for an additional charge of $2. This was a beautiful and tasty sandwich! It was very filling, too. I highly recommend checking out this unique spot!

    The food is delicious, and the setting is unique, but the service is a bit slow…read more The restaurant is located in the lobby of the Scarbrough Building. It's a small space, with only around eight tables and a tiny kitchen behind the counter. It's a bit hard to locate from outside. There's no big sign on the window indicating the restaurant's name, just a plastic A-frame sign outside the building's doors. When I got there, four of the eight tables were empty but the dirty dishes had not yet been cleared. It took close to 10 minutes for the tables to be bused. Because the kitchen is so small, I'd recommend going up to the counter to order as soon as you get there. I believe you can also place your order online using the QR code on the table, but I didn't try that method. I ordered the lox n found, a toasted croissant roll with smoked salmon, avocado, dill ricotta, arugula, onion, and capers. The menu says it also comes with a side of roasted potatoes, but mine didn't come with that. The sandwich was delicious and filling, so I definitely didn't need them, but I do feel like I didn't get what I paid for.
