Huge portion size (great for my next meal!) country fried steak Benedict with home potatoes
Gabriella G.

We arrived for lunch, and were seated right away. The restaurant was not at all crowded, which was a bit surprising since other times it's been sooo full... we noticed the floor was very sticky by our table- the table was a bit sticky too, so they cleaned it again and were given the menus. New items! How exciting: I had not been here for a couple of months. This time I decided to try their matcha- it comes topped with a chocolate pistachios cream (this was a bit too much for me, my daughter liked it) and the matcha was also too sweet for me, but very flavorful. For our main dish I ordered the shrimp and grits, and my daughter ordered biscuits and gravy. My dish had 4 small shrimp (which I ate) a lot of anduille sausage bits, and a lot of flavorful sauce over these soupy cheesy grits that was not what I expected. It was served as a "soup" with a spoon. There was some toasted bread on the side of the bowl. While everything was very flavorful, I did not like the soupy consistence, it was unexpected for me. My daughter's biscuits and gravy, on the other hand, needed more gravy... she liked the dish but she felt her gravy was too little for the serving. Then she also ordered a half order (1) pancake with cinamon roll French toast and we took that home. It had good flavor! Overall, I enjoyed the food, the flavors were good, the prices have definitely gone up a LOT. 3 stars for good flavor as expected- but I was not "blown away"... but yes of course I would come again! Enjoy!

Went here for Sunday brunch around 1:30 PM after seeing great Google reviews, and it did not disappoint. The manager welcomed us with a huge smile, got us seated warmly, and even surprised us with fresh, warm beignets for our first visit. Such a lovely touch! We tried the skinny omelette with seasonal fruits, a lavender blueberry refresher, cold brew, and a crab cake Benedict. Everything was great except the crab, which just wasn't our thing. Service, food ambience were a solid 10/10, and the outdoor seating is a big plus.

We walked into the restaurant and the greeter told us that we would be seated in 10-20 minutes. We sat for over 40 minutes watching people sit and walk by us. I walked up to the greeter and she somehow couldn't find my name on the list even though she typed my information in front of us. She said that she thought that she added me, then sat us down immediately. Eventually, the server helped us. The food was okay. The other location is so much better.

Came here for Sunday breakfast! We were able to get on the waitlist before arriving and didn't have to wait long for a table! Belle was fantastic! Very sweet server! We got our food quickly. Eggs Benedict, fall harvest bowl and apple pecan pancakes yummmm

I had some visitors in town and food/cuisine wise they could be hard to shop for, so to speak. However, I've yet to meet anyone who doesn't like a big hearty 'MERICAN style breakfast. Another Broken Egg Cafe was a bit far out but decided it was worth it with all the positive reviews. We chose to sit inside-just to bright and sunny out and we had a fairly mixed group, seniors to littluns. Our server was great, waiting patiently with both the kiddos as well as the non-English speakers. I went with the Shrimp and Grits because it's not something you see super often. It was a hearty meal, with a good amount of shrimp, seasoned right, a little on the mild side spice wise but that was easily remedied. A lot of good southern staples with friendly, patient service not much more you can ask for.

We stopped in for the first time and didn't realize how Southern‑leaning the menu was -- in the best way. Total pleasant surprise. The vibe was great, super good energy all around. The biscuits were amazing, and both the spinach omelette and the over‑easy egg were cooked perfectly. The whole place felt bright, clean, and relaxed. Our server, Malcom, was fantastic and really made the visit stand out. The coffee was solid too, and it looks like they've got plenty of gluten‑free options. We'll definitely be back to check out their brunch.

Apple crunch French toast
Rozele L.

The service was great thanks to Malcolm he was very knowledgeable I wanted the pound cake French toast but guess what it was served for a limited time and I missed it Malcolm convinced me to get the apple crunch French toast and it was delicious, my husband had the chicken and waffles the establishment is clean and the staff were friendly

Bourbon Street Pancakes
Madelynn F.

Came here for breakfast. Had the Bourbon Street Pancakes and they were so dry, Even with syrup. We also had the cinnamon roll pancake and it was good and moist (these had more toppings and made/cooked differently than the Bourbon Street ones, see pics) . I did the bowl with ham, grits, eggs, and cheese gravy on the side with the biscuit. And it was good.

Another Broken Egg Cafe is one of my go-to spots around Austin when I'm craving breakfast or brunch! They have seasonal offerings, you can substitute fresh fruit for the sides (extra cost), and the service is always great! You get good portion sizes and they have a lot of different options on the menu. FAST FACTS: * Parking - Decent size lot outside of the restaurant but it can be a little tough to grab a spot if they're pretty busy (like during brunch on weekends) * Waitlist - No reservations but you can join the waitlist on their website through Wisely. * Online ordering - Available on their website for pickup and delivery (with the exception of alcohol) * Gluten free and vegetarian options available * Allergen and nutrition information available on their website * Seasonal menu offerings * They usually ask if it's your first visit and will give you some complimentary biscuit beignets! SERVICE - I've always had fantastic service each time I've visited! There may be a wait if you visit during peak hours on the weekend but they do their best to get you seated quickly based on your preference of indoor or outdoor seating. Our server brought us water right away, checked on us throughout our meal, and our food came out quickly. Even when they are busy, the workers are always hustling and still maintaining great service! PRICING - The total was $56.02 after tax ($4.27) but before tip for a 1/2 order of biscuit beignets ($5.49), a Broken Egg biscuit sandwich ($13.79), substitution of fruit as a side ($3.49), cinnamon roll French toast ($13.49), and Bourbon Street pancakes ($12.49 + $3 for sides). BISCUIT BEIGNETS (9/10) - I get these every time I go as an appetizer! They're COVERED in powdered sugar, nice and hot on the inside, and it comes with a honey marmalade to dip them in. You can get a full order (8) or half order (4) depending on how many people you're splitting them with. I'd order these again! BROKEN EGG BISCUIT SANDWICH (8/10) - I love their biscuits! They're soft but flavorful and holds up when you're eating the sandwich. The piece of chicken was pretty massive and cooked perfectly. The egg and country sausage gravy made it a little messy but in the best way! It comes with potatoes on the side but you can substitute fresh fruit (strawberries, blueberries, grapes, and pineapple) and a pickle spear. I'd order this again! CINNAMON ROLL FRENCH TOAST (8/10) - Delicious if you love cinnamon rolls! You get 3 big pieces drizzled in cream cheese icing and a rum butter sauce with fresh berries and whipped cream. If you want a sweet breakfast, this is perfect for you! BOURBON STREET PANCAKES (8/10) - You get 3 big pancakes topped with bananas, pecans, a rum butter sauce, and whipped cream... what's not to love? I love getting these to split with a table for some sweet bites in between savory ones. It comes with two eggs and a choice of meat... the house-made sweet & savory sausage had a great taste and texture! You get 2 decent size pieces. I'd order these again! CITY GRITS (7/10) - I love grits and these were pretty good! They're almost like a loaded baked potato but in grit form... they're super cheesy, topped with bacon, green onion, and tomatoes. It's a good size side and could even but split. I'd order these again! I've been to Another Broken Egg Cafe a handful of times and will continue to visit when I want a delicious breakfast or brunch and recommend it to others! I love trying new dishes every time I visit, especially with their seasonal offerings!

Smoked Salmon Benedict w/City Grits
Christina Q.

Service and atmosphere was great the moment we walked in! Host was sweet and Suzi was super sweet! Food came out quick, she was very attentive and kind to give us beignets as first time customers which were delicious! Especially the marmalade. We ordered the Lobster and Brie omlette along with Smoke Salmon Benedict. Both were a bit on the salty side for us, but overall cooked very well. Veterans Day was yesterday and Suzi mentioned the free meals they were giving. My girlfriend happens to be a veteran herself and it was her birthday today so Suzi packed a few extra beignets for us. Thank you so much again! Would definitely come back.

Just moved to Austin and my fiance and I tried this place one Saturday morning. The cold brew is delicious and so are the French toast and the pancakes. My favorite is the mocha cold brew and the peach French toast. My fiancé loved his food. Service was fantastic and the atmosphere felt homey without doing too much. I recommend giving this place a try!

Smoked Salmon Benedict
Steph W.

This place was really cute with good food. We were seated immediately but were not attend to until 5-7 mins later. They did give us the menus but waaaaaay too long to review before anyone came over to offer drinks. They were busy but not THAT busy. Food was great and delicious. Everyone enjoyed his/her meal. Portion was large. We shared the french toast, sweet and tasty. Loved the coffee mugs, so cute and homey. The service was ok/inconsistent. Spacious with many tables, also has outdoor seating. We'd be back for food when in town again.

Stephanie P.

The atmosphere, service , and food is just what we were looking for! We came in after a hike and enjoyed a few different items. We got in line ahead of time and were sat within 5 minutes of arrival! The waitstaff is very knowledgeable and accommodating! The (manager I think) was very nice and checked on us quite a few times , also cleared our table and helped with a new situation when we were on the patio! We ordered the Tiramisu French toast which was delightful for a little treat! A tad too much cocoa powder for me but that espresso whip is amazinnnggg!!! I'll take a whole can of that next time .. please. lol Eggs and potatoes were cooked and seasoned perfectly! Both trip ms we had the blackstone Benedict with no bacon- however both times it was originally brought out with bacon and had to be sent back. However my partner enjoyed it once corrected hints why he had it both times. The lobster and Brie omelette was what I ordered the second time around and it was great however a little salty. The grits with cheese only were better than the previous bowl of "city grits" The strawberry pound cake French toast was basically just pound cake it did not give French toast vibes at all- probably wouldn't order again. Over all I love this place and the large menu! We will be back this weekend to try more!

Any gluten free options?

Absolutely, yes. Both gluten-free and vegetarian options. Request that specific menu.

I have a group of 12 for an upcoming Saturday and when I called I was told there are no reservations...to sign up on Yelp. Yelp only goes up to 8 people. How can I assure our table will be ready?

I would sign up through yelp then call ahead and let them know it is 12 not 8

How do I make a reservation for Sunday outside?

Hello! We do not take reservations, however you can jump in line before you leave the house using Yelp Waitlist :)

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.

Their burger is easily one of the best I've had in Austin, especially paired with their thin, crispy fries. It's my go-to order almost every time. One thing I love is that they switch up the steak portion of the menu a few times a year, and it never disappoints. Right now they have the steak au poivre, which is incredible, although I'm still craving their steak frites and hoping it makes a comeback. The escargot and French onion soup are also favorites of mine. At this point, June's has become a staple in our house--usually with a couple of Diet Cokes and either the burger or whatever steak they're featuring. A few of my friends swear by the chicken sandwich (fair warning: it can get a little messy!), the half roasted chicken, and the tuna crudo, so you really can't go wrong no matter what you order. On top of the amazing food, the staff is always incredibly kind and welcoming, which keeps us coming back. I definitely recommend making a reservation since it tends to get pretty busy, especially during peak hours.

While my experiences might…read morebe different from those who've dined here for brunch or another daytime meal, I must say with full force that there is nothing quite like going out with your friends on a Friday, knowing that Magnolia Cafe is waiting for you with open arms at the end of the night. First, the service. It's quick. The people are incredibly friendly. And even with a bigger group of people, they were accommodating on how we wanted to split the bill. Thank you! Next, the food. Get the Spinach and Artichoke Dip! Please. I beg you. The bread it comes with is absolute gas. I could chow down on it forever. The dip itself is super creamy and rich with lots of big pieces of artichoke. Perfect for sharing. After trying out a few different entrees, I think my favorite would have to be their Chicken Enchiladas. It heats up real well as leftovers too. I'm also a big fan of their Mag-Mocha Coffee. It's like a hot chocolate with coffee, and I can't wait till it's a little cooler to start ordering it again. Their other food is pretty much standard diner food. As glowing as this review is, it's honestly not like a "This is the best brunch spot! Austin Top 25 Places to Go" type food. But the sentimental value of this place makes up for it. My only complaint: Their AC stays pumping. Bring a jacket. It's incredibly cold. Also, this place is open 24 hours! You can't beat that!

I really wanted to love this place, especially since it's considered an Austin staple, but…read moreunfortunately, my experience was pretty mixed. My biggest issue started before I even got seated. 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.

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.

The store sales an assortment of wines and beers from around the world. In addition, they sell coffee and pastries. There is a good amount of indoor seating. On Mondays nights they play jeopardy and the have discounted drinks. Definitely returning...

Solid coffee, delicious breakfast tacos, and cute spot!!…read more In a city with a coffee shop on every corner, here's why the meteor stood out to me: Coffee/matcha its self was really good. We tried the fronks milk which was yummy but for extra $, next time I'd just stick to regular milk. But solid coffee & matcha none the less. The breakfast taco was absolutely delicious and they were made fresh right in front of you!! I was seriously impressed with these. This is one the best breakfast tacos I've had around town. The place itself is just really cute. It would be a great spot to work remote from, but I enjoyed just hanging out there.

Today, not tomorrow. "Hoy, no mañana." I choose Mañana to get my almost daily injection of…read morecaffeine. Mañana is located at the South Congress Hotel has coffee + tea, bakeshop and grab + go offerings (primarily water, kombucha, paletas and juices). Of course I was there for a latte spiked with black sesame vanilla (their most popular latte) according to my barista, which I paired with an almond bear claw. This was not your typical bear claw as it was not eye-squinting sweet but bursting with almond flavoring primarily in the center. It was almost like a crescendo in a symphony when you got to the center of the bear claw. My latte was flavorful in a subtle way with the sesame vanilla permeating throughout the latte. It is important to note that they make their own pastries and tacos each day. The pastries are a bit pricey costing more than my latte. The coffee shop has floor to ceiling windows on two sides with one of the windows opening into a courtyard with additional seating. The beautifully titled coffee bar immediately grabs your attention. In addition, service was quick and efficient. I was in and out the coffee shop within 10 minutes. I parked right in front of the coffee shop as it was early before the meters started to tick.
