Stopped by Phoebe's Diner while in Austin for business because I didn't want another boring hotel…read morebreakfast. Googled the best breakfast spots near me, and Phoebe's popped up. Glad it did. The menu isn't huge, but honestly that's usually a good sign -- focus on doing a smaller menu really well instead of serving 94 mediocre things and a sad waffle. I ordered the Bad Ass Bacon & Eggs plate. It came with thick-cut bacon, 2 eggs, hash brown casserole, wheat toast, and smoked salsa. Bacon - 9/10 This wasn't your average thin breakfast bacon. Thick-cut, almost pork belly style, with killer flavor and very meaty. Eggs - 9/10 Cooked perfectly and tasted fresh. Simple, but done right. Hash Brown Casserole - 8/10 Different than what I expected, but in a good way. Unique flavor and a great addition to the plate. Salsa - 7/10 Very homemade style salsa with a smoky flavor. Different, but really good. Atmosphere - 9/10 Loved the vibe. Cozy atmosphere, great music, and just an overall comfortable place to sit and enjoy breakfast. If this place was closer to home, I'd eat here often. Service - 10/10 Excellent service. Christy H. was friendly, attentive, and on point the whole time. Overall - 9/10 Definitely a must-try breakfast spot in Austin. They currently have four locations, and after eating here, it's easy to see why.

The wife & I checked this out on my Birthday and am I glad we did! Not far from the house & during…read morethe Spurs game, I decided to look into this joint as I'd heard about it. Directly behind the Limestone Village shopping complex is this massive place. Huge game room/arcade complex is upstairs and the restaurant on the bottom floor. The service & food was MUCH better than the reviews on this platform stated. Drinks: water (nice & cold) and the Jellyfish ale, Food: we shared the MASSIVE nacho platter w/beef chorizo which we didn't finish - it was too much for us both and it tasted Great! The size of the serving platter will utterly astound you so be ready for a stuffed gut! We both ordered the Baha chicken wraps & fries; we had to take these home with us and consumed them the next night: best wraps I've had served from any establishment and this was a day after we purchased them. We left impressed, will definitely return and highly recommend The Goat to all to try out for themselves! We hope you leave as satisfied as we did! Sorry, I left my cell phone at home so no pictures again...

I was probably the youngest person there for lunch by about 30 years, but older people know their Breakfasts and Lunch. I always go with the Spicy Burger which has the perfect amount of spice and meaty goodness. Add a side of fries and you got a good lunch. I also like that the place has a toppings bar including their own spicy ketchup and spicy ranch. Very cool! Like I mentioned, this is a pretty standard local fast food joint, but something I could certainly see on DDD. They make solid burgers so thats a good start for a great meal! I have already been happy here!

I've been wanting to try this place and found myself and decided to finally stop in. It was a…read moreholiday so there was more folks than I expected at noon. You order from the counter and they give you number. Drinks are self served for coffee, fountain, or water. In a fridge next to the order station is orange juice, apple juice, bottled water, and milks (regular and chocolate). Since this was my first time, I ordered the flight of 3. I asked the employee for their favorite - chicken and waffles - and also ordered Banana Love and Grilled Cheese and Bisque. It was definitely a mix of flavors - sweet, savory, and hearty. The ambiance is upbeat. Playing top 40 type of music, folks are dressed comfortably, and the tables are a bit too close together but can easily to accommodate larger groups. Chicken and waffles. Had this one first. It served more like a main meal. Chicken was juicy, a bit more breading than expected but was easy to take it off. It was served with syrup and some sort of mayo/thousand island type mix. Grilled cheese & bisque. Had this one next. Should've been first because it had more of an appy feel. Waffles were nice and crispy, cheese was perfectly melted. I used the bisque for dipping but the also provided a spoon in case you want to continue on with it. Banana Love. Saved this one a dessert. The Nutella was pretty thick and a bit overpowering. The whipped cream was really good and banana looked and tasted fresh. Overall, very good and will eventually eat my way through the menu. The menu also offers sandwich type meals where the waffle acts as the bun. Those seem good for a real lunch.

Had the order of chicken and waffles. The tenders were HUGE covering my waffle entirely. The…read moretenders were seasoned well, slightly disappointing that they didn't have any other sauce (ranch) other than their custom sauce. Also ordered the Nutella and strawberry waffles for my son and an à la cart order of 2 eggs over medium. He enjoyed his waffle but it became overwhelmingly sweet extremely fast so beware! Unfortunately the griddle or pan the eggs were cooked on wasn't cleaned nor seasoned properly bc he took one bite and instantly noticed a "metal flavor" only for us to flip both eggs over and can physically see metal color covering the bottom of both eggs. Super disappointing but we notified the staff and they offered to remake them. Of course my son wasn't trusting and chose not to have them remade. We were refunded $3.50 for the eggs.

Parking is pretty easy: a good amount of parking on in a small lot and on the street, but there's always available spots due to the low amount of traffic in the area. The place is small with only 6-ish tables, but again, not a lot of traffic, so there's usually a few tables available if you're dining in. The staff is super nice and friendly. They have a nice variety of tacos, with a bunch of classic and modern versions. My go to order is the Al Pastor, Barbacoa, and the chips and salsa. The Al Pastor is one of the best versions I've had, with pineapple chunks enhancing the flavor from the crispy pork. The barbacoa is tender and fatty, an big punch of flavor. The red salsa that is super spicy as well. A bit too spicy for me, but has wonderful flavor. This place is looking to be our newest default taco place.

We frequent Victory Tap since it's near my wife's work and it's a pleasant place to hang out…read more Service has always been solid. Everyone seems upbeat and eager to help, from sampling the beers to recommendations on the menu. This particular visit I was looking by for something different and ended getting the "wrapper". A comforting wrap with everything that chills you out and makes you not want to leave. I should have had this during a game as we didn't have time to hang a longer period of time. But it was delicious. Took half home due to its size lol. The beer selection is pretty good too, so if you are wanting a light beer (try the victory blonde that's in-house brewed) or try some of the variety of IPAs, it's there. There is outdoor seating with additional TVs as well. Definitely worth a visit if you are in downtown Pflugerville.

Brotherton's Black Iron may have been a great BBQ when it first opened…read more The place is highly regarded and has a great reputation. However the great pitmaster, John Brotherton, who made Brotherton's Black Iron Barbecue a legendary place passed away a year ago. He was only 49. His death was sudden and shocking. Net of being a great cook, he apparently was also a great human being. He was much beloved in the Pflugerville community. When a master chef dies, It is usually very hard to his or her restaurant to recover. Brotherton's has taken a serious serious loss. * * * 1) The brisket that was once exceptionally tasty now does not taste like much. 2) Ribs that were highly regarded are now nothing special. 3) I can't say whether the pitmaster was responsible for the sides. However the tater tot casserole has become unpleasant. The beans don't have anything to them. * * * Fortunately I was with charming and absolutely delightful company. So the conversation over the table sparkled. The living carry on many of the good things of life. Those good things take more forms than just the food we put in our mouths. * * * That said, Brotherton's is a serious reminder that death comes to us all. When we die, many of the good things we created die with us.

Hmm. not too sure how to feel about it. I loved whiskey cake so much when I lived in Katy -- so…read moremuch so that I would take everyone who visited me there. but since moving to austin three years ago, I haven't had it + was excited to try this location. we went for brunch and the menu was pretty limited on options. it's almost as if you were forced to select a sandwich because the actual brunch meals made no sense/felt lazy. for example, the chicken and waffles were chicken *tenders*, not regular fried chicken.. that feels very lazy. I order the yard bird. it was an oven baked chicken with veggies. good, but not worth $22. I could've made it at home. everyone else at the table basically ordered pancakes with eggs or French toast because the menu was literally that limited, there was no "oo I want to try that!" moment. The service was great as we were a big party. The staff kept coming to our table to apologize on the long wait times; which was confusing because there was barely anyone in the restaurant... but the parking lot was full? where were all of those people? I don't know. the experience wasn't bad but, it didn't hold up to the standard of whiskey cake that I'm used to. especially for $66. the Katy location was so good, it even smelled like whiskey cake. and I remembered this restaurant brand having more culinary forward items like their blue cheese chips during happy hour. (which i lovedddd) If I'm ever out in Round Rock again, I may give it another try, but it won't be for brunch.
