If I could give it no stars I would I've tried going to this Waffle House in particular 2 different times and I usually go after work and I get off around 12 so I usually go around 12:30 - 1 and every time the door is locked even though there are people inside I won't be coming back read more

Got here at 8pm on a Wednesday night with my 6yo daughter. The food is good for a waffle house and deserves about 3.5 stars. My issue is the music. It's VERY loud hip hop coming from the server's personal speaker. It is full of expletives, racial slurs, and sexual language. Completely inappropriate for any restaurant environment, let alone a family friendly chain. I would have at least expected them to turn it down or completely off seeing there are kids here. Unacceptable. read more

Absolutely horrid experience! Arrived at 4:05am for a quick breakfast before heading to the airport. Walked in and was immediately met with nasty attitude from the staff. Was told it was "its takeout only". I stood there for another 10 minutes without being helped, so I left. There were dirty dishes everywhere. Will NOT be back. read more

Amazing! The waffles were delicious and the service was so personable. It was my first time at a Waffle House and I was definitely not disappointed. Such friendly staff, really made me and my boyfriend feel welcomed! If I ever come back to Austin, I'm coming back here! Thank you Waffle House! read more

I went on a Monday night, and everyone working there was very friendly and easy going, not to mention the food was incredible, 10/10 recommend. read more

Steve Jobs allegedly once said, "You can have it good, fast or cheap. Pick any two." (That's paraphrasing.) Clearly, Jobs had never been to a Waffle House. They're great, fast, AND inexpensive. read more

Waffle House - It needs no explanation - American Near Me - Austin, Texas

I came to this Waffle House two days in a row and get the same poorly managed experience. Yesterday, after waiting 20 mins to place a to-go order, one of the cooks asked if everyone placing a to-go order would leave and come back in 5 minutes. FIVE MINUTES! As if leaving for 5 mins would make a difference. Now today, I tried again. I placed my name on waiting list and we were told it would be 30 mins for a table. It's now been over an hour and still four people in front of us. People that have been sitting there for 30 mins still haven't gotten their food. And there were open tables! Just unclean so nobody will sit in them. It's sad how poorly managed this place is. read more

Waffle House - the front of the restaurant - American Near Me - Austin, Texas

I was staying at the Tru by Hilton hotel nearby and saw this establishment. I was greeted with excitement when I walked in. My server was so good that I tipped 80%. The cook even checked in with me and the guy next to me to make sure we were satisfied. Wonderful experience! Would go back. read more

I thought I would get to enjoy a nice breakfast before heading to the airport but when I walked into the restaurant at 5:10 am and headed to the counter to take a seat, one of the employees standing around behind the counter told me that they do not open until 7 am. I was quite confused. It was OPEN and the sign says 24 hrs. There were 3 employees inside and 2 in the parking lot. Not sure what they will be doing the next few hours. The place looked clean. read more

okay so i had to wait 15 mins for jasmine to come take my order when she walked up for the first time she jumped straight to my food. i asked for my drink she rudely said what do you want i proceeded with the drink i want then she took our order. she left to grab drinks. when she came with the drinks she slammed them down spilling mine on my utensils and walked away. came with the food didn't ask if all was good. then refilled my drink 1 time and checked up 1 time. i wasn't a fan of my food witch was my problem. i ordered it. but she proceeded to say "oh sorry about that" rudely. as my boyfriend went to pay she asked if he was tipping at the table since he didn't tip through card he said my girlfriend didn't like her food and the service was poor. she proceeded to say "that's not my problem" and came to me at the table and said "don't come back then". i said "i'm sorry we don't pay people for disrespect" and she said "i don't care. don't eat here if your not tipping" then followed me to my car asking for my receipt back. overall WILL NOT COME BACK! and DONT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE! poor service from jasmine! read more

Don't need to go there again unless we have no other choices. It was dirty and noisy. You're not given regular silverware, but a pack with plastic fork and knife and napkin. Service speed was good but I believe we missed the morning rush. Server was OK - she was not consistent with customers (for example, offering drinks to go to some, but not to others.) Prices aren't too bad, however the food isn't great. Wish there was more variety on the menu. Eggs and bacon weren't totally cooked as ordered. Grits were super salty, and the waffle was a disappointment. Thin and cake-like. I prefer airy and crispy waffles. read more

They only do to-go orders because they get an automatic 20% tip and don't have to do dishes. (Don't add a tip it'll just be extra on top of the 20%) The 4 employees told me this morning at 6:30 they were only doing to-go orders because they are understaffed. They do this all the time. It's like a torch passed down to every new employee at this Waffle House location. read more

Why do you advertise for 24/7 hours but you're not open and the staff ignores us at the window. Embarrassing on management.

Love waffle house. It is the best place in the world. Especially love the lack of service (I respect it) & I love the pecan waffle. Also the hasbrown bowl -- ugh, I could write a poem about it. Let's keep this chain in business, y'all. read more

Sat us down and waited about 20 minutes for the server to get our drink order. No comment on food Experience sucked big time Not returning read more

It's a greasy place where you can't really have a healthy tasty food made with good ingredients. The service is slow and if you seat on the bar you can see the employees fighting among themselves. Not a good experience. I don't recommend if you have other options. read more

Apparently the closed down at lunch time and reopen at 230pm! Who knew? when it is advertised as 24/7 ! It was 1pm lunch time and they are come back at 230!!! As if!!!! And my 93 year old mom wanted waffles! read more

Extremely horrible customer service. Imagine calling this restaurant to place an order for pick up, and being on hold for 20min. Customer service is truly dead. read more

I stopped to eat there with my girlfriend and mom. This is our favorite place to eat as a family . Especially when the staff is as friendly as the ones we had today. The food was very delicious and didn't disappoint our standers , CHEFF KING!!! Season out chops so well I even wanted to eat the bones. Would definitely come back every time I have a chance to eat there again. read more

Yes this place is not the cleanest place , typically I abide by the 5 second rule but at this place..maybe not. But it is Waffle House and when I travel outside of California I like to go to Waffle Houses...for a cheap/hearty waffle. Some of the best things in life are simple. If you like my reviews, consider "following" my profile for reviews all across the SF Bay Area . Why "follow" someone? It causes the person you follow's reviews to tier to top when you pull up a business. I find this very handy when researching venues. Rod's Review grading scale explained. Essentially I personally base it on the likelihood of a return visit and I try to be stingy with 5 star reviews since they should be "special" in my eyes. Price/Value also play a role obviously but there are $ and $$$$ littered across my grading scale. 5 stars - "I'll go out of my way" (approx 6 % of my reviews) 4 stars- "If I was in the area I'd go here and would recommend", (approx 38% of my reviews) 3 stars "Maybe if was nearby", (approx 37% of my reviews) 2 stars -"Would likely not return, Only if you want to go", (approx 16% of my reviews) 1 star -"No thanks, even if I was hungry", (approx. 3 % of my reviews) read more

Stopped in this morning for breakfast around 3:00am every and I do mean every table had dirty dishes on them and not a customer in site. They said they were only doing take-out. The floor was disgusting. I love Waffle House and will never go back to this location. read more

I love this WH! I grew up eating at WHs and in fact, my first job was at a WH in Alabama, so yeah "I'm a Waffle House kid"! I was so sad when they had to shut down for the pandemic cause to go breakfast gets cold so fast and part of the WH charm is the employees. The morning crew here is awesome! Fast, friendly, chatty and just the right amount of surly. The morning manager, I think his name is Alex, was doing it all to help his staff. Cooking, prepping, washing dishes, helping clear tables.....you can tell he cares. They are usually super busy in the morning but they are never rude or stressed, they all seem to enjoy what they are doing. I know I loved working at WH! Of course I love the food, it's in my blood! Bacon crispy, hashbrowns perfectly shattered, what can I say about eggs, they're eggs, worst part of breakfast but ya gotta have um. So guess where I'm going for breakfast tomorrow??? read more

So. The first review I should have made was 12/20/2020. During quarantine Carly kicked ass! She made sure our order was correct and even brought it to our car with a twinkle in her eye! Flash forward to today we had the pleasure of Carly being our waitress/cook. Our pecan waffle and Texas Bacon melt came out sooo perfect! Despite the strange circumstances she deals with... she is a bad B and delivers the best service! You a real one Carly! read more

Average. Well actually slightly below average. The food was ok, the prices were affordable, but the portions seemed small. I ordered a T bone steak breakfast with hash browns and eggs. The steak was tough. The hash browns were cold and not crispy, I asked for over easy eggs and got scrambled. They only dole out one serving of jam for two whole pieces of toast, and you don't get to choose, it is delivered with the meal instead of a selection of flavors on your table. All three stars are for our excellent server, she deserves more than the 25% we were able to afford for her tip. Food quality and portion size need improvement for any more stars. read more

A huge thanks to this Waffle House. Husband and I were stranded in a hotel near the airport during the chaotic winter storm (sometime around Feb 14-18). While roughly 60% of the city had shut down, this Waffle House worked round the clock to feed many hungry families who had run out of food. Luckily we were able to get a hot meal after our hotel run out of food and all grocery stores and other restaurants were closed. We will forever be grateful. To note, the all star breakfasts we ordered were very tasty. read more

I visited this Waffle House at 5am. Drove from San Antonio just to enjoy a Waffle House breakfast and wasn't disappointed with the food or the service that I received. Such kind people working so early in the morning. Will definitely have to make some more trips soon. read more

Waffle House - American Near Me - Austin, Texas

Very convenient being next to the airport and open 24 hours. I flew into Austin on a red eye with the Frontier airline. The airport had nothing to eat or snacks to pick up so I was hungry since I was unable to eat dinner. First thing u smell as you walk in is bleach and cleaning products. From the length of time we were there eating the restaurant was constantly being cleaned. Due to the humidity outside the restaurant was very cold so being a jacket if your not used to AC on blast. Restaurant was little and was pretty busy. Not too many options to choose from in the menu but the food was delicious. Me and my friend shared the bacon, egg and cheese melt with hash browns with sautéed onions in it. I wanted to be greedy and ordered a waffle as well..the waffle was big but I do like my waffles a little crunchy on the outside but still pretty good. The server was great even though I was so tired and hungry I didn't get her name nor pictures of the meal.. but the service looked pretty good throughout the restaurant. read more

Waffle House - American Near Me - Austin, Texas

The food was good Waffle House quality food. Love their food. Our waitress was warm and helpful. Prices are reasonable. Wait time for our order was normal. They also got our orders correct. This was, however, a dirty restaurant. The menus were sticky, the floor was unclean with papers left on it. The food preparation area, which is in full view in all Waffle House restaurants was unclean and not being maintained for cleanliness. My wife and I are not overly concerned about cleanliness in restaurants, but she asked me to leave this review and make a strong point about the unclean conditions in this restaurant. The restaurant was not overly crowded, nor was it empty. It seems that someone should have been assigned to cleanup duty. Clean is not everything, that is why they earned three stars in this review. However, I may have not left any review, if they were clean, because Waffle House is a known restaurant and most people will not go to yelp to find out about Waffle House. But I wanted to point out the uncleanness of this particular Waffle House. read more

Came in for the first time to order to go, let the little Mexican girl that's working tonight 07/02/2022 at 1:12, should know who she is since the rest of the staff was black. She said to go to the counter. We go to the counter and she says oh someone else is going to come take care of you. While she's at the register and could've taken 2 min to take our order, she then continued to stand around and not do shit. BAD SERVICE IS THE MOST ANNOYING THING. I work in costumer service and if you didn't want to work, don't work in costumer service. The attitude. So unhelpful, so if you're loosing business you know why. We left after waiting with no help. read more

Always good. The steak was cooked to a perfect medium rare, eggs over medium with a nice runny yoke, buttery toast, and golden brown hash browns. The service is quick and friendly and has a good ole' kinda feel to it. The wait can be a bit crazy on Sunday mornings, so plan for that if you can. There's usually no wait on random weekdays. read more

Waffle House - Steak and egg breakfast. - American Near Me - Austin, Texas

Waffle House at 2 am is a classic American experience. This place was packed at that hour tho and the wait was SO long. I think my group of 6 waited for a good hour, and we also had to remind them constantly. There were tables open but they did not clean them. My friends were hungry and didn't enjoy the wait time but we continued to wait as we were committed to getting those waffles. I think I fell asleep waiting so In my head the wait time was shorter. The friends all ordered themselves hearty stacks of waffles and breakfast food bowls. The portion size is pretty fair and it's all standard food. I would only go here if everywhere else is closed and it's super late at night. This is the type of place you can complain about but keep finding yourself back at. read more

This local establishment is incredible. One time I was eating here and these high school kids were also here. We had a little conversation and I said "hey where are y'all from?" They replied "San Antonio." I then asked them what they were up at WaffleHome for, to which they replied, "it's Sunday night, why wouldn't we be here?" Yup, you read that correctly. A bunch of 17 year olds drove 90 minutes to eat at WaHo. In the era of craft beer, food bloggers, and Instagram - it's refreshing to eat somewhere off the beaten path without all the hype of your normal "good" Austin restaurant. The best employee at WaHo is Rey (short for Reynaldo) makes the best blueberry waffles this side of the Mississippi. All article of clothings are for sale or for friendship. We have a pair of #armsleeves read more

Open 24 hrs, people seated at tables, but informed that we could only do a to to go order. Traveling and really wanted to sit down and dine. Highly disappointed. Always have loved Waffle House, but if protocol has changed, a little communication with patrons would go a long way. Often times I feel that the mentality of businesses is that "people won't get it", but reality is that businesses would get a lot more understanding and cooperation from patrons if they would explain situations to their clients. read more

First off, I love Waffle House! I grew up eating at Waffle House when I was living in Virginia and I have lived in CA for most of my life, I deeply miss Waffle House. On a trip to Texas for a wedding I was delighted to see a Waffle House 6 mins outside of the airport in Austin. I took my wife who had been hearing about me giving deep professions of love for many years. They did not fail to let me down. Everyone was extremely friendly and we were told to choose a spot wherever we would like which we did. I ordered the Breakfast sandwich on Texas Toast and Hash Browns that were hooked up. My wife got the pork chops and eggs which were flavorful. They also brought us a mess up biscuits and gravy. The food came out extremely timely and hot The coffee was refilled multiple times. Everything was how I remembered it and makes me miss them all the much more. My wife became an instant fan. Thanks Waffle House! read more

We go for the pecan waffle... Or the plain waffle. - it's the thin iron that makes 'em unique... Or the batter. Do NOT miss the waffling here. Or a different Waffle house. We like the hash browns plain... or smothered. - scattered... or not. They use 'real' hashbrowns. Or grits. Coffee's okay. Plain or decaf. Regular or Raisin Toast. Hits the mark. Bacon or sausage. As expected. Watch 'em cook from the bar... or sit in a booth. Breakfast here 24/7- In the morning. or the evening. Never had dinner here. Or we could call waffles dinner. Nice, friendly service. Or they're faking it. Play the jukebox... or listen to what they give you. This place is solid in what they do. Or we're lying. read more

Walked in ... the employee sitting at the counter seemed shocked to see us, told us to sit wherever, but all the tables were dirty, the place is completely run down. Then they started playing really loud music. We left. It was quite obvious they didn't want any business. read more

the service was top notch. Visited on 03/13 at 10pm, it was busy but the crew was on it. We got our food super quick. the service provided was a whole team effort and I was really impressed with how efficient and kind they were despite being slammed. Kudos to the crew! read more

So it's a Sunday night and there's 1 server and 1 cook. After sitting for 15 minutes I shout to the server to ask for a water while she wipes the counter and cleans up like we aren't here. It's been 30 minutes and still no order has been taken. This is a literal joke!! I'm about to walk out. What a waste of my time!! read more

Only Waffle House I've ever been to that they didn't acknowledge you as soon as you walked in the door. There were 7 people working and there were 7 empty booths. All dirty. Family used the restroom. No one cleaned off a table in the 5 minutes they were gone. We stood there after they came back. For another ten minutes and just eventually left. Without a single person ever greeting us. This breaks my heart we love Waffle House. But we won't be back again to this one. read more
