    Southern Benedict
    Sarah C.

    Waterloo has been a staple brunch spot for us for years so when we came in today and found out there was an updated menu, I wanted to update my Yelp review. To my shock I had never reviewed it! We started coming here because it's one of the few spots in town that has the chicken fried steak BREAKFAST which is mandatory for the husband, he orders it 3/4 times. Not only do they have it but it's delicious! One of our favs. Plus they have hash browns which is another non-negotiable for him. I have several items I like to order- avocado toast is great, love the feta addition (server said the new version has sliced avo instead of mashed but I'm sure it's still great), love the build your own tacos, can't go wrong with the huevos rancheros. This time I tried a new menu item, the southern Benedict- fried chicken breast on a biscuit with a poached and sausage gravy- and it was delicious! Though I did think it needed a splash of Cholula to perfect it. I see reviews complaining about service- every time we have ever ate here the service has been awesome; servers are friendly, waits are shorter than quoted, and I love how easy it is to split a tab even with a large group. Portions are generous and they have some good brunch drink specials- the cherry in the mimosas is different lol but can't complain about a $4 mimosa!

    Build your own burrito

    Popped in for a late weekday breakfast with a large group and no problem being seated. There are quite a few larger tables. Lots of parking. Service was great! The menu is pretty large with lots of options. I went with a build your own burrito and it was delicious! Great, fresh, ingredients.

    Cat fish bites

    Y'all I have been to Waterloo a couple of times before and nothing to write about but this past weekend we went and it was amazing! Two things to note - they had happy hour that included Mexican martinis on a Saturday! And they have catfish bites that are the best I have ever had. Bar none! Everything else was good as well and the kids liked their pancakes and eggs. One thing to note - if you sit outside - you can see your kids play in the huge playscape area. Our kids ranging from 5yrs to 11yrs old had a great time. Service was fast. Easy to pay. And we felt at ease with our kids playing close by.

    Migas with Bacon
    John M.

    Been meaning to hit Waterloo for Breakfast and were definitely fans. Service was slow but steady...Place is well kept and clean..ample seating....Wife went with the Hill country breakfast with Bacon....myself I hit the Migas also with Bacon....everything was fresh and hot and hit the spot....everything but the water....Had an odd taste even after a small top off...looking forward to bringing our GD to enjoy a meal.

    We came here for breakfast, and everything was absolutely wonderful! I ordered an omelet with hash browns and it was perfect: the hash browns were slightly crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and not overcooked, which often happens in diners. The omelet was incredibly tender and delicious. What impressed us even more was that we asked for decaf coffee, and they specially prepared it for us -- such a thoughtful touch! The service was excellent: the staff was friendly and efficient, and the place was very clean. This spot is clearly popular; it was quite busy in the morning, but that didn't affect the speed or quality of the service. We left with full stomachs and great impressions. Thank you, we will definitely come back!

    Lemon Drop Martini

    I had a horrible day until I came here and their onion rings and lemon drop martini resurrected me like Jesus Christ on the 3rd day

    Water broiled crap burger

    Shoutout to Belle and Elizabeth for being absolute legends behind the bar. Quick, friendly, and just overall good energy. They brighten our day every time we visit--tip them well, they deserve it! Ross the bar manager is also wonderful.

    Guacamole Bacon Swiss Burger with tater tots
    James K.

    We have been here many times and always enjoy it. Solid sports bar setup with several TVs. The staff is always friendly too. Today our waitress was Azaley and she did a great job and took good care of us. As for the food, their burgers are solid. I got the Guacamole Bacon Swiss burger & enjoyed it. My fiancé liked her blue cheese burger as well. The tots & fries that come with the burgers are also both solid, and we liked the chips & dip appetizer as well (I'd suggest the green salsa over the red one though). Only downside is sometimes the service can be slow, and a few of their tables are a little wobbly. Solid spot overall though. We will be back!

    Texas Philly
    Andrea C.

    I went twice in two days back to back. My first experience was 5 stars - our waiter Isiah was so great! Constantly refilled waters and had food patience and knowledge of the menu. I got the Texas Philly that day and it was so good! If you like cheese like me, you'd definitely like this since it's topped with their queso instead of regular cheese. They gave a pretty large portion of tator tots, too. Worked out for me because I love tots! The food was super hot as well. My brother got a Mac and cheese side, which I took a few bites of and I would say to avoid ordering that here. Not enough cheese coating the noodles, tasted pretty bland. The next day, I would give my experience a 4. Waiter experience was not nearly as good, but not horrible either. I got the Guacamole Bacon Swiss this time - it was good but not mind blowing. My bottom bun got soaked from the Mayo/lettuce. The bacon they used in it was really good, didn't feel like the cheap microwave bacon some places use. Overall it just didn't feel like it had any mind blowing taste. Portion of tots seemed consistent with yesterday, so that's a plus. Overall, I wouldn't mind coming back but I'd probably keep getting the Texas Philly instead. The atmosphere seems fun (didn't go on a special event day but looks like they have trivia nights and other stuff) and overall the service wasn't slow either days like some reviews say. Not too bad!

    philly.
    Javi H.

    Pretty sad to see how bad the food has gotten at this place. The Philly was served in what seemed a hot dog bun, very salty and clearly stated light cheese on my order and had what it look like extra cheese. They don't use plates anymore and instead use trays that the food barely fits into. It's hard to imagine how they are still in business.$15 dollars for a philly like this is ridiculous. Let's not even talk how gross the broccoli tasted like.

    Fries were good!!

    I must admit that I was a bit skeptical about this tiny restaurant in an older strip mall bearing…read more a big blue sign that said "Diner" on it. But I enjoy new experiences and menus with eclectic dishes. The menu had few choices for breakfast and I was unsure why it was suggested as a breakfast place. It's actually a good place to eat any time of day! The beautifully decorated patio provided the perfect welcome into their modestly decorated air conditioned restaurant and bar. When I say bar, it's more like a 1950s bar that you can sit at and have a meal at. Although drinks and meals were offered any time of day! The waitress was pleasant and helpful in suggesting add ons with my meal. But being a purist, I wanted to try it as intended. The food arrived in the normal amount of time. When I first saw my mozzarella omelette I was a little surprised! It didn't look anything like what it was described as! Oh well! I thought. Let's give it a try! My taste buds were happily amazed! Could this omelette smothered in mushroom gravy, green "pesto" and bread crumbs be the best omelette I've ever had?! The mushroom tomato gravy was so smooth! Along with the cilantro avocado topping. That tasted more like pesto, gave it the perfect zing! I had wished I the had ordered some toast to dip in the sauce. I could have done without the bread crumbs. But they were easily swept to the side. The amount of mozzarella cheese in this omelette led me to believe it was more of an omelette lasagna than a plain old omelette. This place is definitely a must if you are visiting Austin!

    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.

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.
