Unfortunately my visit here lately wasn't great. Service was super inattentive, the waiter brought…read moreus our food and asked where our drinks were 15 min later. We then got our drinks after our food. The food was not as impressive as I remember. Maybe it's because we got salads. Mine was suppose to have kale in the mix. I was too hungry to ask why it didn't come with kale. There were way too many cranberries. Though my friend raved about her cobb salad, so I guess I just got the wrong salad. The fries came out cold and we had to track down our waiter to order dessert and get the check. The peanut butter pie was a little too dense for me and it lacked depth in flavor. When you come here I would stick with the OG sandwich, mac & cheese, and butter pie. Warming about parking, lot is small and hard to maneuver.

I hate to leave a review like this for a local business but my experience there today was horrible…read more We were the only ones in there, showed up at 3:15 (they close at 4) the waitress was friendly and we ordered quickly. My friend ordered a side salad, I meant to take a picture. It looked like it had been frozen, the lettuce was yellow, brown and soggy. The only other thing on it was soggy shredded carrots and a cup of balsamic dressing. No tomatoes, no croutons nada and the balsamic dressing had film over it, like it had been sitting in the plastic cup for days. When the waitress dropped it off she asked "do you want this"? As if she too knew it was gross. We said no thanks. I ordered the yankee omelette and side of French toast and cheesy hash browns. The hash browns were greasy but decent and toast was good. I cut into the omelette and realized they gave me the Denver (ham, peppers) instead of the yankee (olives, feta, spinach). The waitress was sitting at a table texting so I had to call her over, she told me she had entered it correctly but the kitchen may have messed up. I told her I wasn't sure what happened but this isn't what I ordered and let her know I just wanted to pay for the toast and hash browns. She offered to re make it but I declined and she obliged & walked away. After ten minutes I had to get up and get her (texting again) to cash me out. If it was just one issue I'd be ok but there were many- food quality in the salad, old dressing. poor customer service (texting, not following up). Kitchen screw ups, wrong items brought, mediocre quality. It was bad, I wont be back. And for a place already having issues due to high rent, construction etc I would think quality and customer service would be a focal point. I'd save my money and time if I were you MUCH better options.

The hash browns and eggs were a bit on the greasier side than to my liking, but I did really enjoy the toast. The place is pet-friendly on the patio, and the service was very quick and friendly.

I really enjoyed my meal at Counter Cafe! I got the Fried Chicken Biscuit with my choice side of…read moreBacon Flavored Collard Greens. The biscuit was tasty and the chicken was cooked perfectly. The honey butter was very yummy, but I wish it wasn't as cold or hard. I would have preferred for it to be on the sandwich However, a pro of it being on the side is that you can control how much you consume. Nevertheless, I still wish it wasn't warmer in temperature. The greens were good as well. Not my favorite, but enjoyable to eat. The people were so kind! There's a decent amount of parking available that surrounds the building. The ambiance is very fitting to its name. It's a comfy, neighborhood cafe. I look forward to going back!

Came in for my birthday brunch up from San Antonio. Let's start with the positives:…read more Service was excellent. Server was attentive and my coffee stayed filled (with a small caveat I'll speak to below). Atmosphere was simple. "Modern" diner experience. Music was low and not obnoxious, bell ringing behind the counter, the low hum of conversations. Lighting was nice. Food for the most part was also excellent (one caveat to this will be listed below). I had the Counter Benedict, wife had the biscuits and gravy, son had the breakfast taco. Breakfast potatoes were very good. Crisp, pillowy, and properly seasoned. Pastrami on the Benedict was very good. Poached eggs were well cooked and silky as expected. Flour tortilla in the breakfast taco was also good. Sausage in the gravy was slightly spicy and delicious. Now, the negatives: Coffee was lukewarm after my first cup. Coffee needs to be hot. One of the biscuits in my Benedict was overcooked and dry as a bone. The gravy for the biscuits and gravy is sweet for some reason. Normally I want more gravy, but when my wife couldn't finish her breakfast, I had 0 desire to eat it. Not sure why it's sweet but it's weird. Overall we liked it so we will be back. The prices are very reasonable for Austin, and they have Valentina as a hot sauce option (which is excellent).

I have a long history with Cisco's -- this was the first place I ever had Mexican breakfast, back…read morewhen I was a senior at UT -- so I came in with real affection and nostalgia. Unfortunately, this visit was disappointing. The migas themselves had good flavor, and I still remembered loving the warm salsa served with migas and sausage. But on this visit, everything was served rather cold/tepid, which made the whole meal fall flat. Warm salsa can be wonderful when the plate is hot; when the food is lukewarm, it just doesn't have the same magic. We were first seated in the back room, which felt like a refrigerator, so we moved up front. Unfortunately, the ceiling fans didn't help the food stay warm either. The biscuits were also underwhelming -- somewhere shy of "meh." I wanted to love it again. I really did. Cisco's has history, charm, and a place in Austin memory. But breakfast needs to come out hot, especially dishes like migas, sausage, salsa, and biscuits. I hope this was an off day, because I'd love for the old spark to still be there.

That's too cheap isn't it? So this was a really good value for what you get for the price. Their daily lunch specials have several choices. Next time when we come back we'll have something else to choose from. Today I got the green Chicken enchiladas with rice and beans and tea. All of it was very good. The price was right and the service was very prompt. The train station is only one block away so if you want to zip down for just lunch and have a great meal at a great price, it's an easy way to do it and not have to worry about parking.

I am a fan of Texas Honey Ham Company and they are known good quality food and great service…read more The atmosphere here is casual and welcoming and the staff is always engaging and friendly. I usually place a phone to-go order but it is a great place for a quick lunch or laid-back meal. The food is ready when promised. They have a very large menu with lots of options. My go-to is the Choice Sandwich with 1/3 of a pound of finest Choice Slice Honey Ham, cheddar, lettuce, tomato, red onion, dirty mustard and mayo, served on a toasted fresh baked bun. I usually add avocado for a nice creamy texture. This is one of my favorite sandwiches because it is served warm with the bun toasted and it hits the spot with the flavorful ham and all the toppings. If you are a new customer they will offer you a sampler plate where you can try all of their homemade side dishes. Some of my favorite are the shells and cheese and ham bone soup. Overall, a reliable choice if you're craving a hearty, well-made sandwich. I will continue to come back for more of the delicious ham!
