A classic, nostalgic stop for my wife & i 20 years ago & now we're +3 and the boys can learn about chicken n waffles too!

Linh T.

this place is alright. the food is okay, server is direct and blunt, space is dim. this is a good place to go to if you want quiet, in and out, and decent breakfast.

Steven A.

Great food, service, and easy parking. The chicken and beef are fresh from a local farm. I would return.

I've been back a few times since my last review, so it's time for an update. Unfortunately, the service has been hit and miss. Sometimes I have a positive server, and other times I have a server who is going through the motions and clearly wants to get away from my table as soon as possible. That's not the kind of service I expect in a restaurant. I've been ordering breakfast and it's been solid. My eggs come out right, the bacon is cooked well, crispy waffles, excellent skillet fries.

After a late night of working my friends and I were STARVING! Thank goodness 24 Diner was open, serving and welcoming to our exhausted selves. I got the 24 Smash Burger and it was perfectly cooked and exactly what I needed!

Waffle Breakfast
Teri K.

Delicious gourmet diner food (yes, It's a thing). Even if you are not vegetarian/vegan, you do jot want to miss their homemade veggie burger. It is sooooo tasty amd the grilled spicy peppers give it a kick. The malted waffle is very rich and unique. My boyfriend enjoyed the hash and he was pleased with the generous portion. Friendly service and good coffee!

Meatball & Burrata
Quincy A.

Random order for breakfast, but we started with meatballs and burrata which were great! The bread was warm and burrata was fire. I got the veggie hash but without Swiss and the portion was huge which is always a plus. I didn't try the Benedict but it looked good. Really flavorful and everything came out pretty fast. The staff was attentive and friendly!

I had a really solid dining experience at 24 Diner. I stopped by for lunch right before a flight. It was brunch time on a weekday so there weren't that many people dining in. They did have a few people who came to grab takeaway orders. The wait staff are really sweet and service was good. I ordered a mushroom swiss burger with fries. It was tasty. The portion was perfect for a lunchtime meal. They do have a breakfast menu that is available all day; pretty good choice if you have a craving for breakfast things!

Bacon Avocado Burger with too salty fries
Eric H.

Hey, there's a diner next to the Waterloo records shop at 6th and Lamar. Seems to have adequate parking, if it's not too busy. Unfortunately, the food obtained here was excessively salty. The fries--a bit overcooked (dark yellow), and over salted; you'll swigging water or your beverage after eating a few. And that house sausage for which you should do yourself a favor and not order? Salt bomb. Bacon Avocado Burger? They asked how I wanted the meat cooked, so I request medium, but it came well-done... ok. I did enjoy the burger though, just not the fries that came with. As for the veggie hash? It was kind of nice with a slightly cheesy flavor. The egg was sunny side up, slightly runny, as requested. But the house-made sausage on the side? Please don't order that, as you'll regret it. Unless you love salt. I did taste herbs and spices within their house made sausage, but the salt was too much. Water cups were kept adequately filled (I suppose to dilute the sodium). Would I come back again? Definitely not.

24 Hash at the top. Side of waffle in the middle. Breakfast burger at the bottom.
Rebecca G.

Food was so good! That cinnamon butter on the waffle was to die for. Service was satisfactory.

chicken and waffles
Mary S.

This is a beautiful diner with friendly staff and a straightforward menu. This is the diner that is never bad. I absolutely had to come back for their chicken and waffles classic, and to try their chocolate shake. The chicken tenders were juicy and the fluffy waffles were just perfect for anytime of the day. The chocolate shake was marbled with syrup and whipped cream was optional. There is plenty of parking for this place right at the edge of downtown. It is the ideal location for shopping at nearby local shops and bringing out of towners.

Egg burger
Lainie H.

If you're in Austin and craving a meal at any hour, 24 Hour Diner is the spot. We had the best waitress ever fun, engaging, and full of great recommendations. Honestly, she made me feel like a VIP just for showing up. The egg burger is a straight up legend. Juicy, cheesy, with a perfectly cooked egg on top, it's basically the breakfast of champions in burger form. I may have even cheered a little. And the vanilla lattes? Out of this world. I'm pretty sure they're brewed with magic and a tiny bit of happiness. Friendly staff, unbeatable vibes, and food that will ruin all other diners for you. 24 Hour Diner, you've officially taken over my heart and my late-night cravings.

French Toast Platter
MeMe W.

HANDS DOWN! This place has the BEST FOOD in AUSTIN!!! My Husband & I have gone to this place twice now and the 1st time was about 4-5 years ago. And when I tell you their food is soooooooo amazing. The staff was fire too. Shout out to our waiter Koda. He was soo cool, attentive and gave great recommendations on the food. Also shout out to Ryder and who ever they have hidden in the kitchen . 10/10 I ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND!!!!

Their fried chicken sandwich was audibly crisp with fresh tomato and lettuce that I made two meals out of. To end the perfect meal... my husband actually coordinated with staff to create "Gender Reveal" pancakes! I didn't realize what they were until I got to the yummy surprise! Their cream is delicious! The pancakes were soft and sweet! The experience, unforgettable. It brought happy tears to my eyes and we really appreciate the thought and care put into our day. We will DEFINITELY be repeat customers!

In the true anthony bourdain spirit, I will give an honest review…read more I went here with my family over the weekend and the food was just meh. The chicken was cooked to perfection but that was the only thing we truly enjoyed. The biscuit was seemingly made in a sheet and cut. Even when we ordered a side it was split in half, so you never really got that satisfying bite of biscuit with the flaky top. Everything we had (the badass bacon and eggs, brisket breakfast sandwich, chicken sandwich, chicken and biscuit sandwich, and biscuits and gravy) were okay but not super. I was disappointed in the gravy which was just a little odd. The side of red potatoes was interesting but not our favorite. No hate to the place, just not at all what I was expecting. The service and /decor were great. The food was just not to our taste.

The hash brown casserole, one of my favorite morning dishes, was great, and the biscuits were flavorful and definitely fresh. Our server was so friendly and helpful as we decided what to order.

There's a sign by the front door that gives you parking options. I was really torn with what choices to make... Pancake vs French toast: Pancakes were a little mushy/gummy for my taste. They are light but less sweet than many other pancakes. I'm typically pretty light on the syrup but I added more syrup for the sweetness. They are good, just less sweet. Next time I'd try the French toast which is made with thick brioche bread. Bacon vs sausage: Bacon is thick, not greasy you bite it like a piece of chewy pork, it's good; the smoked sausage is great! It's a little spicy, full of flavor. Eggs with onion added were quite flavorful. It was a good breakfast diner experience.

But I went to school in Oklahoma, where I first discovered them, and whenever I'm south of the Mason-Dixon line, I sometimes seek them out. A friend recommended Paperboy, and I happened to be staying near the East location. I can only describe what I had as "Elevated Biscuits & Gravy: delicious house-made biscuits, perfectly seasoned sausage gravy, and perfectly cooked eggs. The guy next to me highly recommended spreading a little of the honey butter on the biscuit before adding the gravy. I was skeptical, but that sweet-and-savory combination was amazing. Take his advice. The place was hopping on a Saturday morning. As a solo business traveler, I was able to grab the one open seat at the counter. I'd describe the decor as upscale diner, and the staff were friendly, helpful, and impressively efficient. The dining room and outdoor seating were full, with plenty of people waiting for tables or takeaway orders, but the team kept things moving. It was so good that I'll probably be back before I leave Austin.

Amazing Food, Incredible Drinks & Fantastic Service!…read more What an absolutely fabulous experience at Moonshine Grill in Austin! From the food to the drinks to the service, everything was fantastic! Jessica took great care of us and made our visit even more enjoyable. The ambiance was also really nice, with cute rocking chairs out front and lots of mirrors all over the walls. We had the grilled cheese sandwich with burnt ends, and WOW! The combination of the amazing onions and gooey, delicious cheese was out of this world! We also ordered the sweet potatoes, and I cannot say enough about how good they were!

We somehow snagged nearby street parking and a table for two with no wait despite it being a busy Saturday evening after a UT football game. Make a reservation if you have a large party or are on a tighter schedule. It's a bit loud for those seated in the lobby/entrance area, but totes a vibe. For food, we ordered the blackened catfish, brisket burnt ends quesadillas, and harvest bowl to share. Everything was delicious and served quickly, even with the aforementioned dinner rush. 10/10 would order the same items again. I was so appreciative of the server splitting the entree over two plates without us asking. Did I mention the complimentary popcorn and cornbread? Twas a FEAST. I'm already thinking about the next time we're going back! If not for Moonshine, definitely for the speakeasy downstairs.

There is a QR code that you're required to use to join the waitlist/queue, but this is not clearly communicated on their website. You essentially have to arrive at the restaurant and figure it out once you're there. For a restaurant that is known for having long waits and high traffic, I feel like this information should be clearly stated online so people can plan accordingly. Once I joined the queue, I was number 43 and ended up waiting about an hour and a half before being seated. I understand that popular restaurants can have long wait times, but the lack of transparency about how the process works made the experience more frustrating than it needed to be. Once inside, the ambiance was actually quite quaint and charming. That said, considering how much traffic this restaurant gets, I was surprised by how limited the space is. I honestly think expanding the property would make a huge difference, although I understand that may not be entirely within their control. One thing I will give them major credit for is the menu. Online, the selection makes it look somewhat limited, but once you're there, they actually have 50+ food options, so there is plenty to choose from. That was definitely a pleasant surprise. Unfortunately, my entrée was disappointing. I ordered a shredded beef taco with salsa and substituted a side salad. The beef was extremely tender, but unfortunately, it was also very dry. The salad was another disappointment because the vinaigrette was honestly not good. I don't think I've ever had a vinaigrette that I actively disliked until this meal. Thankfully, my fiancé had a much better experience. He ordered an enchilada and said it was one of the top five enchiladas he's ever had, so clearly there are some standout dishes on the menu. That definitely made me curious about trying something different if I ever return. I also really enjoyed that they offer hibiscus tea. I was very happy to see it on the menu, although I personally think it would be better served on its own rather than incorporated into one of their mixed drinks. The drink itself was just okay, but the hibiscus flavor was great. Overall, I can see why this place has become an Austin staple, but I think the experience could be improved significantly by making the waitlist process much clearer online and by improving the consistency of some of the food. The menu has a lot of potential, and clearly, some dishes are excellent! Unfortunately, mine just wasn't one of them.
