The food was good but I took a togo order and they didn't give me half of the order. I called over 15xs no answer. Just bad business!

Great food, best pancakes we've had in a long time. Staff was very friendly, we were seated within our wait time as they said.

Good to know you can do the online waitlist via Yelp for next time. Thankfully it wasn't too busy when we arrived, 15-20 min wait. Beautiful weather and good company made the time fly by. Started with a party of 3, but the third didn't show up and on weekends they won't sit incomplete parties. So we had to wait a few extra u til the third person cancelled. Service was amazing, friendly and prompt. Never had an empty coffee cup! I got the corn beef hash with hasbrowns and we ordered a Dutch baby to share. First time having that as it was different. The server mentioned to use the powered sugar and lemon or do maple syrup or just plain. We split the Dutch baby into 8 slices with each quadrant having different toppings. The plain lemon juice and powdered sugar was my favorite. I love their original pancakes, and will get those next time. read more

The Original Pancake House - Apple Pancake Dutch Baby - Scandinavian Near Me - Austin, Texas

Great breakfast diner serving particularly tasty pancakes and bacon. Wait times on weekends can be long so I'd suggest arriving early. Leaving a review to provide a suggestion to the 3 pigs in a blanket dish. Each pancake wrapped sausage is a bit bland on its own and needs some more flavors inside. The following concoction fixed these complaints and was the tastiest bite of food at the table: 1. Unroll the pig in a blanket 2. Smear some butter inside 3. Break up the bacon and sprinkle it on 4. Pour some syrup onto this 5. Wrap the whole thing back up If you're worried about looking like a four year old playing with their food, rest assured the outcome is well worth it. 4/5 would visit again read more

Service is attentive, responsive, and friendly. Our waitress gave us great suggestions, especially when eating the Dutch baby pancake. Cut like a pie topped with powdered sugar and lemon juice! We also tried the maple syrup way on another slice. Part crepe, part pancake, and part sweet quiche is the best way the Dutch baby pancake! Inside the pancake house is a warm, rustic, and welcoming environment. Perfect switch on your breakfast or brunch routine. read more

If you are looking for a place with large servings, reasonable prices and delicious food this is your place. The wait can be long so I highly suggest you join the Yelp online waitlist. Once seated, service is unbelievably fast. If you plan on ordering the Dutch pancake it takes about 40 minutes to cook, so order this immediately once seated. You definitely won't be disappointed. The portions are large and shareable if you wanted to try a few things with multiple people. The berry crepe is extremely fresh and was more than enough for two people. If you are in the Austin area definitely check this place out. They have multiple locations as well. read more

Ok, I think this is my second review and I must say I think I've figured this place out. 1. As soon as you think about eating here, get on the wait list. This joint is quite popular on the weekends. 2. Expect to be blessed with their choices. 3. You will have the best servers, so treat (tip) them properly. We dined here on the Sunday before Christmas 2025 and it was busy, yet nice at the same time. They offer something for everyone, even "Gluten Free" options. Our serve was the best. I took this shot while he was running around refilling coffee and busing tables. As much as I hate to bring extra business, you have to try this place. Michael C. - Georgetown, Tx. read more

It's not super often that a restaurant is worth the hype. But lemme tell you, this place is 1000% worth the hype. Staff is super friendly, servers are great, food is great - not like tons of butter fake make you sick kinda great, but like it's good real food and cooked beautifully and the value for what you get is fantastic. $35 for all this and it was enough to feed at least 5. You can't even get that kind of value with fast food!!! Super busy but they keep it clean. I am looking forward to my next trip to Austin to try something else on the menu. Corned beef hash was delicious, pancakes and French toast... chefs kiss! And those eggs fluffy somewhere between regular scrambled and soufflé. And I don't like eggs at all. read more

Grateful to have always lived near a location of The Original Pancake House - California, Illinois, and now Texas! This location is fantastic. Love that they have the Yelp waitlist option. We added our names to the waitlist before leaving home, and after checking in with the host upon arrival only had to wait for 5 minutes for a table! The wait is otherwise insane. After being seated in a cozy booth, we enjoyed hot coffees and perused the extensive menu. After much consideration, we decided to order the banana pancakes to share, along with a bacon and eggs combo. The bacon and eggs combo came with hashbrowns. The bacon was too chewy for my personal taste, and hash browns lacked salt/flavor. The eggs were cooked per our request just fine. The banana pancakes were the star of our breakfast. Served hot off the griddle, these pancakes were soft and fresh. They came topped with banana slices and were served with fresh butter + syrup. Absolutely delicious and IMO the best pancakes in town. 10/10. read more

First time I tried one of these was in Vegas and was really happy with it since I love pancakes. Yea this is a typical diner like ihop or dennys but their food tastes good unlike the other places. These are literally best pancakes you can get at a place like this. Really good. I got the original and son got Swedish. They even have lingonberry very impressed. If you are a pancake person this is the place to go. read more

one of the best pancakes i've tasted in my life! dishes we got: regular pancakes apple pancake combination plate (bacon, eggs, hash browns) the apple pancake is one of their specialties (takes 30 minutes to make), but i thought their regular plain pancakes were the best. nice little hack: they have a yelp waitlist, so i joined about an hour before i wanted to go and didn't have to wait in line there. they do require everyone in the party to arrive before getting seated. read more

The food was really good! The only thing that bothered me and my friend was as we were sitting at the table I felt someone behind me, I look back and two older women bussers were constantly standing so close if I turned the wrong way I'd hit them. It felt super pressuring because we knew they were waiting for anyone to get up and just clean a table. We had only been sitting not even an hour. read more

One of my favorite breakfast places! Great food and awesome service!! Never had a bad experience.

Stopped by this place. Ordered the Farmers omelette, Pigs in a Blanket kids plate, and silver dollar pancakes. The omelette filled up the plate with a bed of hash brown underneath and ordered French Toast so fluffy. The service was great. Coffee was delicious for me. The kids loved their breakfast. The ambience is casual. This place gets packed. I recommend if you want an American hearty breakfast. Next time i will order the Dutch Baby pancakes. Looks enticing. read more

My friend's last meal before he moved out of Texas. Im very content with the food and the service. I don't eat a lot so im thankful they let me order from the Kid's/Junior Menu. On top of that, they substituted my pork sausage links for turkey sausage. Yay! Zero wait on a Wednesday morning. I'd recommend this place for anyone craving a hearty breakfast read more

The Original Pancake House - The Rigo Perfect savory breakfast - Scandinavian Near Me - Austin, Texas

I just realized I have not been here for a long time. I left my review back in 2019, and I was very surprised how everything has been changed. The service from the host area to wait staff was pleasant and very friendly. Food was good, pretty traditional and expected for a pancake place. We ordered Migas and couple of kids plates. Portions were good, solid I would say, bottomless regular coffee was a nice addition. The only thing is, staff should mention if something on menu would cost extra. That would help to avoid any confusion at the end. We got ham with kids menu, I wanted them to try, they did not want it. Ended up paying up charge of $3-4 at the end. Again, no big deal, but since no one ate eat I still had to pay, and knowing cost upfront I may not ordering it. In overall it was a very pleasant experience, I would definitely come back. Ambiance reminded me another broken egg, the only difference this place is much closer to me. read more

Great food and decent service, but be prepared for long wait times. When my mom was visiting from out of state, I joined the online waitlist, which quoted a 45-minute wait. After checking in upon arrival, we ended up waiting TWO hours. I realize we could have left after 45 minutes, but by then other nearby restaurants also had long waits, so we decided to stick it out -- a decision I won't make again. read more

Great visit today. Yuri was my waitress/hostess. They got me in and out quickly and efficiently, as this restaurant usually does. The service was good. Food was great and it's always delivered cheerfully with a smile. I was under an incredible time crunch today, but I think I was able to have a full breakfast, 2 cups of coffee, one to go and a giant glass of grapefruit juice in less than 20 minutes from walking in the door to being paid out and leaving. read more

Be sure to get on the waitlist through YELP! The wait is long if you don't. Our server (Nicholas?) was super nice and friendly. The orange juice is delicious. Freshly squeezed with a hint of additional sugar. I got the lone star Benedict, just the perfect size. The biscuit was soft and the sausage tasted homemade. The meat lovers scramble was loaded with meat. Their hashbrowns are also very good! Ask for it to be well done though. The Apple pancake takes a while to cook, so order that the moment you sit down. We got it to go. The pancake is more of an eggy custard base and not like your typical American pancake batter. It's not overly sweet. I would suggest sharing it with another person, it's almost 2400 calories for the whole thing! I'd definitely come back the next time in I'm Austin. read more

We came here on a Sunday morning which was probably our first mistake. It was PACKED like to the max insanely overstimulating especially being in such a small space. Service was fast even though they were busy and food was delicious! I understand Sunday brunch rush is a think which is why I still rate this place so high! Food was truly that good and as long as you're okay with talking a little louder to hear your table. read more

This is one of the best breakfast places in Austin, in my opinion. 4.5 stars really. I love the corn beef hash breakfast with eggs and pancakes with a side of Turkey sausage. It was delicious! My brother had the make your own omelet and a stack of buckwheat pancakes, also amazing. The best is our server Alexis who is so thoughtful and considerate in the way she serves people that you want to get up and hug her. She is a testament to good service. The place is busy and you may have to wait but it is worth it. read more

The fruit was fresh and the crepe was made perfectly the only issue is they gave me way too much many strawberries on the inside of the crepes.. I almost had an entire plate left with strawberries I had scraped out. Also there was no type of filling on the inside I was hoping for a sort've sweet cream but unfortunately there was not just plain strawberries inside. ( on menu it states Fruit Crepes ). In the end it was still delicious just wouldn't order again. read more

This restaurant; no matter which one in the USA, will always be one of my favs for breakfast & brunch. It's such a sense of nostalgia and smells of waking up on a weekend with tons of family and smell of bacon looming through the air. I guess if you are vegan or vegetarian that may be a turn off but they actually do have lots of options for both. I am a sucker for the Dutch baby with lemon and a side of fresh fruit. I love their fruit because it comes with blueberries, strawberries, and bananas and it comes in two sizes. The Dutch baby is so good, I don't even use butter or syrup. The coffee is also amazing TO ME. Take that lightly as I am a tea person. Hahahaha. But to me, it's one of only two places where I drink coffee because it's that good. The pancakes are also delicious, light, and fluffy. Service is always on point. I don't know how the servers keep a smile because this place is always busy. Even during weekdays. Please note if you get the Dutch Baby, it will take about 25 mins but I always request the eggs and meat come out when available so I can get some protein in before the CARBS. Hey, I do what I can to focus on eating order and speed to control any spikes and then just do a quick run after. Life is about balance. Excellent hours and make sure to get on the waitlist via YELP!! That is my biggest tip. Avoid the 1-2 hour wait times and walk right in and get seated within 5 mins is the BEST!!! Enjoy the colorful photos. I am a sucker for red, white, and blue!!! read more

This was our weekend regular for breakfast while we were in Austin. We almost always had a wait (because yes it's THAT GOOD) but it was worth it EVERY SINGLE TIME. I absolutely LOVED the Migas and the Corned Beef Hash breakfast. The hash is the BEST you'll ever have!! Their pancakes were always phenomenal too!! In all my visits there I never had a server that wasn't at the top of their game. They always went above and beyond and were so friendly and genuinely made you feel like they were glad you were there. If you're anywhere near them... GO!! I promise you won't regret it!! GREAT FOOD and FANTASTIC service!! read more
