Stack of Pancakes
Erika B.

Love this spot. This corner of the world is always open, always well lit, and welcoming. Staff is hardworking and attentive. Sometimes the AC is on too chilly, but besides that this places always hits and never misses. Still affordable.

Service was great, amazing food and drinks. Waitress very nice and made sure everything go well.

We were seated almost immediately upon arrival. If you have some time to kill, there is a claw machine located near the host stand if you're willing to try your luck. We ordered the Brisk-It-All melt, Philly cheesesteak omelette, pancakes and fries. Brisk-It-All melt: slow-smoked brisket burnt ends, crispy diced bacon, two eggs, aged white cheddar, Diner Q sauce and pickles on grilled artisan bread Philly cheesesteak omelette: three-egg omelette with grilled prime rib, fire-roasted bell peppers & onions, sautéed mushrooms and Swiss cheese This location is conveniently located next to Motel 6 Midtown, so although Denny's wasn't my first choice, I have to say that I enjoyed the food. Our waiter (I believe his name was Jordan?) was very attentive and it was the best service we received at a sit-down restaurant in Texas so far. The other staff members we encountered were also great!

This is upleveled with healthier and tastier classic diner dishes. We sat outside on a nice rare cooler Austin morning and the staff still made sure to check on us consistently. We never felt that sitting outside kept us away or out of site. Will definitely go again! One callout is that they don't list all the ingredients that normally would be listed so maybe just triple check if you're allergic to anything. We had someone allergic to mushrooms and one of the gravy's had mushrooms in it which wasn't listed

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 chorizo bowl absolutely stole the show!…read more I ordered the chorizo bowl, Nancy had the Bad Ass Breakfast, and we split an order of blueberry pancakes. I've had the Bad Ass Breakfast before, and it never disappoints. The bacon is phenomenal, easily one of the highlights of that plate. But the chorizo bowl was on another level. There was a lot going on in that dish--chorizo, spinach, onions, pickled jalapeños, pickled onions, an egg, and several other ingredients. On paper, it sounds like a lot of competing flavors, but somehow everything worked perfectly together. What impressed me most was the balance. You had the richness and savory flavor of the chorizo, the tanginess and acidity from the pickled vegetables, the freshness of the spinach, and the egg bringing everything together. Every bite had a little something different, but nothing overpowered anything else. It was one of those dishes where you could tell the ingredients were thoughtfully combined rather than just thrown together. As far as heat goes, I'd give it a 2 out of 5. Enough spice to give it some personality without overwhelming the flavor. The blueberry pancakes were good, but nothing particularly special. Just solid pancakes. Overall, I've enjoyed the Bad Ass Breakfast before, but that chorizo bowl is what will bring me back. It's not often a breakfast dish with that many ingredients manages to be so well-balanced. Whoever put that combination together knew exactly what they were doing!

We were fortunate one of the larger tables was available inside, so we got to sit down within a few minutes. They also had a big bar with countertop seats. I ordered the Brisket Benny that had a combination of biscuits, brisket, egg, hollandaise and bbq sauces. They needed about 15 minutes to bring our dishes out. I liked my dish a lot. Biscuits, brisket, and sauces all tasted great together. My daughter's pancake was decent, but could have been better. Fruit bowl was good. Our server was super nice. He did a good job despite being occupied with several tables. Overall it was a very nice, cozy breakfast and brunch location.

We were looking for a late-night restaurant with a variety of options to satisfy my picky daughter,…read moreand we ended up at 24 Diner. From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome throughout our visit. My daughter and I both ordered the chicken fried chicken, and she substituted the collard greens for mac and cheese. The sausage gravy served with the chicken fried chicken was a little unexpected, but I actually enjoyed the subtle kick of spice it had. The collard greens weren't for me, but that's more of a personal preference since I've never been a fan. The mac and cheese, however, felt like it was missing something. Maybe it was the blend of cheeses, but it wasn't the classic, ooey-gooey diner-style mac and cheese we were hoping for. My brother ordered the chicken and waffles. The waffles had a fermented aroma and tangy flavor that caught us off guard. After speaking with the manager, she explained that they're made with a sourdough batter. While that may appeal to some people, it just wasn't his favorite. Overall, we had a good experience thanks to the outstanding service and welcoming atmosphere. The food simply didn't match our personal tastes. That said, the restaurant was absolutely packed, so they're clearly doing something right. I would still recommend giving 24 Diner a try because everyone's palate is different, and their unique flavors may be exactly what you're looking for.

The hummus wasn't bad per se, just the combination of flavors didn't work for me. That's a me thing. Someone else might dig it. My lady ordered the chicken and waffles. She said it wasn't bad, the chicken was juicy. I had the abomination that was the sweet potato hash. The eggs were ordered over medium. Fruit was the side. The eggs were cooked over well, way over well. Ok. Things happen. The hash was not fresh at all. Really quite soggy. Ok, so guessing it may have been cooked a day or two prior to ordering. Not well prepared, but not the end of the world, right? Here's the thing: there was an unmistakable flavor of rubber and/or plastic. This was the predominant flavor. I simply couldn't eat it. Maybe a wrapper or some other foreign item was inadvertently added. The small dish of watermelon, strawberry and pineapple was ok. This, with tip, was $65.00 just had water to drink. Wonder if they used to be good and have just fallen off, but IMHO not worth it at all.

We started with the fried green tomatoes, which came with buttermilk ranch, and they were absolutely delicious! Crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and full of flavor. I'm a big breakfast person, so I ordered Phoebe's Benedict, and it was out of this world! Everything came out hot and fresh from the kitchen. 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. As a matter of fact, everyone made us feel welcome from the time we walked in until the time we left. Delicious food, friendly people, and a great breakfast with family.

Servers & service were good. Workers were friendly. Nice, clean diner vibe…read more It's located across the street from a courthouse downtown so there's a lot of reserved street parking & not as much immediate parking in front but you can get lucky & find street parking around the corner. 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.

Full transparency--I have never dined here before the hours of 2:00am. 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.
