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 ordered the grilled cheese with tomato soup, chicken and waffles, and the strawberry and cream waffle with Biscoff spread. Before I get to the food, I want to recognize the excellent customer service. Since it was my first visit, I had quite a few questions. The employee helping us was patient, friendly, and knowledgeable. She walked us through all of the flight options, and let us know that everything was made fresh to order, so there would be a short wait. I appreciated the transparency, and when our food arrived I soon found out it was worth the wait. The standout for me was the grilled cheese waffle with tomato soup. The soup tasted homemade, with bright tomato flavor and generous chunks of tomato throughout. It was fresh, and absolutely delicious. The grilled cheese featured a flavorful muenster and provolone instead of the standard cheddar you find everywhere else, and the waffle itself was crispy on the outside with a perfect gooey cheese pull. My friend enjoyed the strawberry and cream waffle with Biscoff spread since I'm not a huge fan of Biscoff. I did try the strawberries and cream, though, and both were excellent. The strawberries were fresh, sweet, and firm, while the cream tasted rich and homemade. The chicken and waffles were outstanding. The chicken was crispy, juicy, and well seasoned, and the waffle had a wonderful texture: light and airy inside with a crisp exterior. It was served with syrup and a remoulade-style sauce. The restaurant is clean, welcoming, and thoughtfully decorated with fun murals, word art and nods to Round Rock. For a first visit, Waffle Love made a fantastic impression. The next time I'm in Round Rock, I'll be ordering another waffle flight, probably the same 3 selections, just without the Biscoff spread.

They have a nice variety of tacos, with a bunch of classic and modern versions. My go to order is the Al Pastor, Barbacoa, and the chips and salsa. The Al Pastor is one of the best versions I've had, with pineapple chunks enhancing the flavor from the crispy pork. The barbacoa is tender and fatty, an big punch of flavor. The red salsa that is super spicy as well. A bit too spicy for me, but has wonderful flavor. This place is looking to be our newest default taco place.

John passed away in early 2024, while his family took over the shop in Pflugerville. Now just about a decade after opening shop, Brotherton's is closing down at the end of August. Following John's passing, they've hit a few road bumps from the rising cost of beef that's been plaguing Texas BBQ. Earlier in January they posted on social media how they were struggling, and again last spring. At the start of August, the Brotherton's family announced Brotherton's Black Iron BBQ in Pflugerville was shuttering for good at the end of August. Knowing this would be the last time I would be able to try it, my buddy and I took an extended lunch break on a Friday to give it a shot. Upon arrival at just around 11:50, we noticed that the parking lot was packed with multiple food trucks and other businesses filling the shopping center. We got lucky with a parking spot far away as we marched inside to wait in line. On the door lay plenty of stickers from different BBQ joints from Texas and beyond, with even some coming from overseas. The line moved slowly but surely, and as we got to the front we got our three-meat plate with a bonus slice of turkey for good measure. We ended up getting to Brotherton's at the perfect time because we got the final slices of brisket on that glorious Friday. I'll share my thoughts on everything we tried: Brisket: Though it looked like a great cut that was nicely seasoned, it was pretty fine overall. Nothing remarkable about their brisket while still very fatty. Jalapeño Cheddar Sausage: Juicy, cheesy, not really too spicy on the jalapeño side of things, but that might just be from the mildness of jalapeños these days. Pork Ribs: These suckers looked incredible from the pictures I saw online and on social media, but they were kinda disappointing based on how incredible they looked visually. They were good, just not as epic as I was hoping. Turkey: Turkey is underrated in the BBQ scene, and this is no exception. A nice cut of meat! Cornbread Casserole: I could've eaten the whole thing myself, so it was a shame that we were sharing. Green Chili Mac and Cheese: I'll repeat myself. I could've eaten the whole thing myself, so it was a shame that we were sharing. As a whole, I'm very glad I gave them a shot before I would never be able to again. That's the hardest part about Texas barbecue. The best places and the historic spots can drop in a moment's notice when hardships hit or the meat prices skyrocket. Sadly, I can tell that they're already at the end of their rope with certain menu options like the loaded nachos and baked potatoes, which always seem like the sign of the end. And with how the food was simply just decent overall, it's hard to justify the rising prices. I see reviews all over saying their quality has fallen off year after year following JMFB's passing, and it makes sense: he was the heart and the soul of the business. When that vaporizes overnight, it's only a matter of time. I don't wish for the downfall of any spot, but I understand that it's bound to happen to certain ones.

My…read morefriend, who was building out the reservation, asked why we would need to be there for three hours, from 6 to 9 pm, before our next plan on our itinerary. By the end of the night, when we were rushing to make it to our 9 pm event, she understood. Whiskey Cake is one of those New American craft kitchens that has a great bar and consistently great food, even if it doesn't immediately blow you out of the park. I drank a few drinks here, starting with their Texas Barrel Aged Old Fashioned, made from Still Austin Bourbon, a honeysuckle liqueur, vanilla, and orange bitters. A really strong but full-bodied cocktail with a lot of great flavors at play. I drank a local Austin beer on tap that I'm suddenly blanking on off the draft, and ended the night with a Montucky Cold Snack combo with a small pour of bourbon (maybe 1792, don't quote me). We only ate appetizers and sharables while at Whiskey Cake. I'll try to run through everything we had: Local Goat Cheese Fondue: A uniquely sharp experience. The bread was fantastic, but I'm very particular on my cheese and decided goat cheese wasn't for me. Roasted Garlic Hummus: The pita bread rocks, and so did the hummus, which is the actual selling point of the dish. Fries & Friends: Literally a basket of fries and dipping sauces. Not bad at all, but I don't know what you would expect. Deviled Eggs: I can't truly get behind hard-boiled eggs for some reason, but if I don't perceive that it's a hard-boiled egg, I can imagine that these are killer. I really enjoyed this. Charcuterie Board: A little bit of this, a little bit of that. A really excellent collection. The cheddar, the sausage, the cured meats, and the honey were all standouts, and it is probably the best table appetizer to get if you're also getting a full meal. Just little snacks for everyone! We ended the night with some of their Whiskey Cake, which is absolutely delightful and is obviously what they are known for. The waitress that served us was fantastic and timely and super friendly. The atmosphere was generally very nice and led to good conversations and had a solid energy. Ultimately, Whiskey Cake impressed me for what it offers and what it can be. They also definitely got whiskey. Tons of whiskey.

We were able to change tables to accommodate more privacy. Casey was our server and so helpful.

The artichoke dip well presented and good but not memorable. The old fashioned and margarita are excellent. For the main event I had the smoked pork chop. There is not a part of the dish I don't think was perfect. The chop, sauce, broccoli and slaw combined perfectly. I would say come back for this alone, but the tavern burger and chicken sandwich were great as well. The fries are crunchy on the outside and flaky inside. Grilled vegetables are an excellent side. You shouldn't leave without an order of the whiskey cake. "I only want a bite," doesn't exist. If you aren't very hungry start with dessert and add the main dish to go. Whiskey Cake has an exhaustive whiskey list and Wednesday has $7 pours which makes tasting easy. I hear brunch is excellent; I can't wait to try it.

Being born and raised in Mexico, El Taquito feels like stepping right back into my childhood and teenager days. The flavors, the sazón, the presentation-- everything is incredibly close to the traditions I grew up with. It's the kind of place where every bite reminds me of home, of family gatherings, street tacos (el taco parado on a corner stand on the plaza), and real Mexican cocina (salsas are the bomb!). If you want true Mexican flavor, this spot delivers exactly that. On top of it all, the margaritas are made with fresh juices herbs and fruits! read more

I'm so glad I dropped in today and found it. I definitely recommend it and I will be back every time I head out to my sons

The fajita steak is not like restaurant fajitas. My kids will not touch it. I don't know what type…read moreof steak cut they use but it tastes and feels like fake meat. It's like slimy and super thin cut. Also the 2 times I've been here we have such an issue communicating. The menu says savory beans, I asked if the fajitas come with refried beans and they charged me for more beans before I corrected them. I also tried ordering a chicken breast taco as labeled on the menu and they had no idea what I was asking for. They got help, then said ohhh a pollo somthing taco. I'm literally reading the menu and it says verbatim what I asked for so I don't k ow why I'm the issue. This was my second trip here and I felt like an idiot I will not chance coming again it was so embarrassing 2 stars because it looks nice and clean otherwise this is a 1 for me with the customer service, communication and food. $80 for fajitas for 4 down the drain.

When I'm working, I try to eat quickly. I left Dripping Springs; made my way to Hutto via the toll…read moreroad. Dropped off the supplies needed and headed south on the same route. Food needed; next stop lunch. I saw this Taco Palenque going north and since it was a quick off and on I chose it as my stop. No counter service which is OK with me. I ordered the most EXPENSIVE plate of food on the menu and a drink. $23. Grab some chips, salsas, and my drink. Snacking while my food is prepared. Another persons order comes out. They can't find him at the same table they just served food to. Can't read numbers on the tents? My food comes to the table and I say thanks. I try to eat fast folks as I was due in Buda for a truck thing. One Enchilada, Crispy Taco, Beef Fajita, Guacamole, Rice and Beans. Except after I started eating I realized no guac. I walked to the counter and ask for my missing item. Well, I finished my plate and it never showed up. I walk back towards the counter with my plate ready to go into the trash. They see my sad face and another employee asks what's wrong. Shocked that there was any language barrier; I mean Guacamole. She then asked me what my ticket # was. No clue; selected no receipt when I ordered. Recap, not that hard to serve this cuisine on one plate. Food is NOT worth nearly double what Taco Cabana charges for basically the same plate. Plus, if you don't get what you ordered and you don't have an extra 30 for a refund talk you're SOL.

Taco were decent, I liked the tortillas not too thick but still that hommade flavor. the fillings were kind of bland but with the toppings and salsa from the salsa bar it sprused it up! the torta was smaller then expected but for the price, I cannot complain. not many vegatarian items avaliable but I would stop back by if in the area to try another item. plenty of seating inside for small and large groups.

I'm a little confused by the low star reviews for this place. Transparently, if you're walking into…read morehere expecting to be in a high end Mexican restaurant, you are going to be disappointed. This is a solid hole in the wall. You get exactly what you expect when you go in. The food is solid. The drinks are solid. Nothing is going to blow you away! The wait staff is friendly, but be patient, there are only a handful of folks working at any given time. They have happy hour EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK. FROM 12-7. Like... where else are you getting that in Austin? Margs for $3.99?! Sign me up! I'll be back, and best believe it'll be between 12-7

This place is located in a mini strip center right next to Dave's ultimate automotive. On the other…read moreside is a nail spot and Foganero Argentine restaurant. In case you're getting your car worked on like I was, you can always stop in here for breakfast or lunch. They also have a full bar in case your repair bill exceeded your savings account. I kept my order pretty simple with just a couple of breakfast tacos, and a glass of orange juice which was much larger than I expected. I like the fact that it came with a small fresh carafe of salsa and green sauce. There's well over a dozen tables to sit at and cajunto music playing overhead. They do offer DoorDash, but it's always best to dine in. My 2 tacos and very large orange juice with tax came out to nine dollars. You just can't beat that deal which earns them five stars. Informative photos included.

I came here for a quick lunch with my father after seeing the great reviews on Yelp. We came in…read morearound 12:30pm and only one family was dining in, which seemed strange to me. We went up to the counter where you place your order and ordered two tacos each. I chose a pastor taco and a bistec taco and my father ordered a beef fajita taco and a pastor taco as well. The other family had already received their food, so I'm not sure why it took fifteen minutes to receive our four tacos. While we waited, I perused the rest of their menu and saw they offer quite a variety of things, both simple taco shop fare and more restaurant-type plates. My tacos were delicious! The pastor was my favorite and the bistec was fine. They give you one large tortilla regardless of whether or not you choose flour or corn, so two tacos was enough for me. They also have salsas that are adequately labeled. I believe I have quite a high tolerance for spicy, so I tried their extra spicy salsa and my tongue was on FIRE. It is definitely not for the faint of heart. I would return, but not before trying out some more places around here!

Literally the worst customer service I've ever experienced in my life and sub par food. No wonder I…read morewalked in and it was empty. Owners were extremely rude and cold. Do not go here. Go to a better kinder taqueria.
