Sausage, cheese and egg breakfast sandwich with hash browns.
Bill U.

The service was fantastic. The restaurant was clean and comfortable. The hash browns were delicious but the sausage was dry and overcooked. We will return to try additional items.

Rye toast

I began my order with coffee and fresh squeezed orange juice. The orange juice came in a frosted mug and was delicious. Nothing beats fresh squeezed orange juice. The coffee was very good. And just as a bonus they actually have Stevia. The waiter's name is Malik. When I ask him for recommendations, he gave me honest and fair recommendations. I really appreciated that. I've been to several places where I ask for a recommendation and I am told everything is good. That's very unhelpful. I ended up ordering the Tex-Mex skillet. Well, I just finished the TexMex skillet. It was friggin delicious. The buttermilk pancakes were OK, and the toast was delicious. However, just as a personal preference, I prefer my toast to be completely slathered with butter. I had to add three packs of butter to completely fill the toast with butter. However, this will not stop me giving a five star review. The ambience is comfortable, mostly grays and whites. There are eight tables that see four people each and 10 booths that seat four people each. I can imagine it gets quite tight on the weekends. However, on a Thursday morning it was easy to get a table and there was no weight for the food to come out. Overall, this was a great experience and I'm glad I stopped here for breakfast.

I came for brunch and left with a new personality: "person who will absolutely be back next weekend." First of all, the food? Illegal. I'm pretty sure my blueberry lemon French toast violated several laws of physics by being both fluffy and dense at the same time. The service was amazing too. Our server somehow knew exactly when we needed more coffee, emotional support, and another round of "we deserve this." 10/10 would recommend. Come hungry, leave happy, possibly slightly overconfident about your life choices.

Although the ambiance is simple, the service is superb! My server was the most personable I've encountered in a while. She was attentive, friendly and accommodating. The food was just a amazing. The chilaquiles was delicious, however it is in the spicy side. The steak was cooked to perfection. I also enjoyed the hibiscus tea.

Chilaquiles

A great breakfast option in the area. I've been driving by this cafe whenever I go to my Filipino spot. Decided to come in today while in the area. Greeted right away as soon as you walk in. I decided to try their chilaquiles and it was as I expected it. Tasty, a hint of spice and very hearty. They also served freshly squeezed orange juice a multiple flavors of agua frescas. The staff are friendly and very attentive for everything that you needed to make your dining experience a great one as a first timer. Definitely coming back to try other items menu option as the this dining experience is a great one.

FOOD INSTAGRAM: @northtx.gemz **** WHAT THEY'RE KNOWN FOR: local hole in the wall serving amazing brunch food from American food or authentic Hispanic food. THE VIBE: simple and easy! Spacious too. PRICE: i don't remember but affordable. WOULD I COME BACK? Yes! I have been for awhile. **** Overall Rating: 9.5/10 - side note I miss @karissacarrrillo - This cafe was surprisingly so good but not that surprising because it has really good reviews on Google. - The jalapeño sauce Angel's chilaquiles came with was the perfect amount spice and had so so much flavor I had to ask for my own side. - I really have been wanting to come back here after trying it back in April because it just had so much flavor (both of our dishes) and I just love supporting a small business! ****

Steak Tacos
Vu N.

What an outstanding find! it's absolutely great addition to our breakfast rotation. We arrived with the initial intention of ordering breakfast. However, the steak tacos seemed exceptionally delicious and irresistible and we are all extremely glad I decided to get them! The service is outstanding here, and all staff members go the extra mile to accommodate different spice levels for Tex-Mex and other dishes needing heat. Their juices are a great touch. Along with multiple aguas frescas, such as hibiscus, tamarind, and lemon, they serve pure, freshly squeezed orange juice. We politely asked for a small taste of their tamarind juice; furthermore, they were happy to oblige. It was a great refresher after a tasty, big meal because of its balance of sweet and tart. Definitely coming back to try other items from the menu when in the area for a quick meal.

Avocado Salmon Toast

Tried a new breakfast place and loved it! Place was pretty quiet on a Monday morning. Servers were very friendly and helpful. Full menu for breakfast lunch and dinner. Ordered salmon/avocado toast with fruit and it was fresh and delicious! Will definitely come again.

Ribeye steak tacos.

The food was great and the server was very knowledgeable and helpful! Thank you for the exceptional service and quality food!

I absolutely fell in LOVE with this coffee shop in the city!…read more My friend and I decided that after lunch we would find a nice coffee shop to sit and enjoy the rest of our work day! We were on the hunt for a place that had a lot of seating, a good coffee menu and also sold pastries, and Otto's checked off all the boxes! I always say that when you are able to find front parking, also, you are exactly where you are meant to be, and somehow some way, we found just that! We both ended up ordering their wedding cake latte, that we later found out that changes colors based on whatever wedding they are hosting in the hotel they are located in. HOW COOL! The latte was FANTASTIC! I love when a coffee shop serves it in glass when you are deciding to sit for a bit! It felt so welcoming! I also decided to order their pound cake which was FANTASTIC! SO moist and perfect with my latte! However, the true star of the show has to be the ambiance! It's located in downtown in the Adolphus hotel and it is STUNNING inside! You truly get a city coffee shop experience at OTTO's! They had plenty of chairs and tables, as well as plugs! Which made our visit that much more great! Overall, I highly recommend it, and I will definately be back!

We came here for breakfast while staying downtown, walkable from the hotel which was a big plus. I…read morewould not recommend driving here, parking is a nightmare. Walk if you can. Coffee was decent, nothing to rave about. My cappuccino was served in a paper cup which I was not thrilled about. We were eating inside, not taking anything to go, so there was no reason for that. Paper cups influence the flavor of a hot espresso and I drink mine with no sweeteners specifically because I want to taste the actual shot. The espresso was also slightly burnt, which tells me the machine needs a good cleaning. Iced coffee is a different story but for hot cappuccinos, ceramic makes a real difference. My husband's coffee was good though and he was happy with his. Breakfast sandwiches were the toaster style, similar to what you'd expect from a place without a full kitchen. I genuinely enjoyed mine. My husband was not impressed by his. Overall it was a good enough time. We would not go out of our way to come back but if we were in the downtown area and needed a reliable spot in a pinch, we would stop in again. P.S. My ratings are based on whether I believe I could make a better or healthier version at home. If food/drinks/service impress me, I'll be happy to come back. If not, the stars reflect that.

I visited this spot while I was in Dallas and wanted to support another Black‑owned business…read more Unfortunately, it didn't live up to the hype I expected. Ambiance: The setup was a bit odd from the start. Coming in from the parking lot, the signage makes it seem like you have to pay for parking, but the hostess explained it's only enforced on event days. After checking in, you're asked to wait in the patio area before being allowed into the main dining space--where you can already hear the music from outside. Once inside, the music was turned up to level 10, making it nearly impossible to enjoy a conversation with my party or even hear the wait staff clearly. Service: Despite the noise, the service itself was good. My waiter did what she could, but the volume made communication unnecessarily difficult. Food: Since they're known for their chicken and waffles, I wanted to try them and form my own opinion. Unfortunately, both the waffle and the chicken were just okay. I was hoping for more seasoning and less of that "cooked in old grease" taste. Overall: As much as I want to support this establishment, there are several changes that need to be made before I could recommend it.

The food here was really good across the board! My only wish is that they had more mocktail options…read moreon the menu, but I ordered a Shirley Temple and it hit the spot. We started with skinny fries and dynamite shrimp to share, both were sooo good. The tempura shrimp was perfectly battered and the sauce really set it off. The fries were perfectly seasoned too, and the dipping sauces were delicious, especially the honey mustard. For my entrée I got the lobster roll, which came with more skinny fries (yay!) My friend ordered the fish tacos, which came more wrap-style instead of traditional taco shells, but she said they were still really good. We ended with the key lime pie and it was so good I had to order a second one to go and enjoy at home. 10/10

I recently visited Hudson House and overall, I'd give my experience about a 6/10…read more The mac and cheese was absolutely delicious and definitely one of the highlights of my meal! Unfortunately, the salad was extremely salty--so much so that it was difficult to enjoy. I'm not sure if it was the dressing or seasoning, but it was definitely overwhelming. What really stood out, though, was the customer service. Jacob, our server, was great--attentive, friendly, and professional. Management was also very responsive when I mentioned the issue with my salad. The manager personally brought out additional fresh lettuce to help correct it, which I genuinely appreciated. Even though the salad missed the mark this visit, the way Jacob and management handled everything made a difference. Great customer service goes a long way with me, and because of that, I'm willing to come back and give Hudson House another try. Hopefully, next time the food matches the level of service!
