    Pancake
    Jamie P.

    Finally made our way down to the new paperboy location on South Lamar. We had a reservation and they seated us promptly at our reservation time. I was grateful that the patio had protection from the sun. Service was pretty quick considering how busy they are and the food is consistently good. Parking on South Lamar is made easier with their underground parking garage. The pancake is huge and could easily be split. The bloody Mary was surprisingly strong.

    Kind of like a hash bowl, again, forgot the name!

    So that was D-freaking-licious. What a great place to brunch! This was my first time at Paperboy South, and now it has burned itself into my brain for future visits to Austin. Great vibe, interesting menu, friendly but unobtrusive service... digging it. We started with some ricotta toast, a first for me, but man whenever I find this again... it will be ordered. Wow, what a great flavor with the fluffy ricotta, tangy fruit and glaze. This was a revelation for me. Honestly, right now cannot remember the name of my specific dish, but honestly it was like a brunchy carnitas platter, and I was here for it. Nothing like BYO tacos with a brunch spin. I just remember loving it. Great visit, thanks Paperboy South!

    Finally got to try this place. I've tried the east side location and man, it's hard to get in. Came with another friends and we sat on the outside patio. Really enjoy that the patio is fully covered, yes if it were to be a windy, rainy day may not work out but for the most part this was great. They have a take out window for orders as well. Inside looked quaint with bright lighting. I got the pancakes cause it was recommended and they weren't too shabby. Would I say they are the best? No, tasty, yes. Friends got other dishes, of course I don't remember what they were but they did enjoy. Make a reservation and try them out. Parking was also convenient and they validate.

    Truly outstanding breakfast venue. First time at this restaurant. Was worth the 20 minute drive and paying to park, although they give you a discount when you check out. On parking. Sat inside. Has a very modern, clean, well laid out, upscale diner feel, with comfortable booth seating (and an outdoor area too that was spacious, but not appealing to me on a reasonably warm, somewhat humid day). Let me get right to it. Everything I ate was A++. The five of us shared a pancake, which was extremely fluffy and tasty, with melted butter. I did not have the French toast, which looked inviting, but a sugar overload. I also did not try the homemade pop tart that everyone said was very good. My latte with whole milk, served hot, was delicious. I went simple -- had two eggs, with bacon, potatoes, and toast. This was a memorable breakfast with ordinary ingredients that was prepared in an exceptional manner and perfectly seasoned. There's not much more that I can say, other than when you can make the ordinary taste special you're doing something extremely right! Our primary server, see photo, was delightful and efficient. Fellow that brought the food was also friendly. Presentation was excellent, even though fairly simple. Prices were extremely fair for the quality of the food in my opinion. I completely understand why you need reservations. Truly outstanding breakfast!

    Cinnamon Toast Crunch

    I was in Austin for the day and found this recommendation from TikTok! They close at 2PM and they were able to get me in right before they closed so I'm forever grateful lol I wanted to try some pastries but they let me know that they are made fresh, in-house everyday and they go fast! So they were sold out. I ended up ordering the Texas hash and the cinnamon rose which was like a French toast with the most immaculate choice of toppings on it. I'm a sweet and savory girl and they both were phenomenal. The hash was made with a mole sauce that gave it this Mexican taste to or which I absolutely loved. The cinnamon toast also had a really good mascarpone and this caramelized crunch that I enjoyed a lot. You also got a really good bang for your buck so I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in Austin!

    The best cinnamon toast I've ever had. Perfectly cooked eggs. Delicious drinks. Go try it. You'll love it

    I've been here countless times, so I can't believe I haven't written them a review yet. I'm SO happy they opened up a south location as this is perfect and hence my frequent visits :) First things first, they validate first hour of your parking in the garage, so don't forget to scan the QR code by the check-in desk. Secondly, come early bc they run out of their fresh made pastries so often!! Food wise: here are all the dishes I've had before. Shareables: poblano and cheddar biscuits - perfect for a group. Jalapeño jam is delicious! Chorizo empanada to die for but they always run out so come early! Cinnamon toast - this is too sweet for me but everyone loves this and good to share if you just want a small bite Entree: Chicken and biscuit - delicious and big portion Texas hash - delicious and different Steak & Eggs - always a great option. I love it here. Great service. Great food. Great ambiance.

    We have been to PB east location few times, wanted to checkout this location, made reservations a day before. This location PB is much bigger, they validate parking for an hour, that's good, got seated promptly. Patio is simple yet nice and comfortable, our server was nice, welcoming and friendly but not attentive. Food is good, as usual, place was pretty busy, so reservations are must.

    Latte and cappuccino

    Long time fan of Paperboy but this was my first time at this location. As always, food was delicious and service was fast, attentive and friendly. The Texas hash is a must. Roasted pulled pork is quite filling but the kale and sweet potato makes it feel like it's still somewhat healthy! My husband ordered his go-to: the classic breakfast with two eggs, seasoned potato wedges and maple sausage. I took a small bite of the sausage and side of preserves and it's so good! If you're planning on getting weekend breakfast or brunch, make a reservation ahead of time as wait times can be long.

    Vanilla Latte
    Samyukta S.

    First time at Paperboy South and it did not disappoint. This location takes reservations (highly recommend making one to avoid long waits) and offers validated parking for the first hour in the adjacent garage, which is convenient. The restaurant offers indoor and outdoor seating spaces, both of which are cozy and comfortable. I started with a hot vanilla latte, which was delicious. For food, my girlfriend and I ordered: 1. chorizo and potato empanada to share - this was pretty oily. I've had better empanadas. This was a miss for me. 2. Paperboy pancake wjth blueberries, and a side of eggs + bacon. The bacon was crispy just the way I like it. Eggs were cooked to order and the pancake was decadent, massive, and delicious. This meal fed two of us easily. They brought some rice krispy treats out for dessert along with the check, which was a nice sweet bite to round out a good meal. Worth a visit.

    Chilaquiles
    Amy M.

    Second time visiting paperboy but first at their south location. Unfortunately, this visit left us wanting a bit more. We ordered a round of frozen hibiscus margaritas which are delicious and STRONG. Perfect especially if you're sitting outdoors. I got the chilaquiles and while they were delicious, the portion size was definitely lacking...was sadly still hungry after my meal. Service was fine but was better at the east location.

    Paperboy Pancakes
    Michael M.

    I've been hearing about the breakfast at Paperboy for a while and finally made my way there. First, I really like the ambiance and atmosphere. The outdoor patio is nice to sit and enjoy your meal. Even when it's hot outside as the patio is covered. Second, the service is fantastic and the staff is friendly. Lastly, the food is delicious. I tried the pancakes as that's what this place is known for. Definitely fluffy and flavorful. I was hoping to try some of their starters, but they were all sold out by the time I arrived. So, I recommend to book an early time for breakfast/brunch. Overall, a great experience and I would return again. I'm interested in seeing the vibes at their other location next time.

    Pretty darn good! My breakfast sandwich was delicious and the hash brown was good.. but I feel like it was better on my last visit- I could tell what was off a little???? The gluten free muffin was AMAZING! Service was great! And it's a cute little restaurant!

My eggs Benedict was served on a unique bread - not a traditional English muffin - that kind of fell apart as I ate it. The flavor was great though. I should have gotten regular home fries, because the hashbrown casserole was cheesy and I wanted something to soak up the hollandaise and egg. The pancakes were so light they fell right apart when we began cutting into them. The flavor was great though. I would definitely recommend Phoebes.

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.

Everyone else enjoyed their meals as well. While they validate parking for two hours, the information on their website about parking being $4 per hour after that for restaurant patrons is inaccurate. When we were driving out of the garage we were shocked to see a $48 bill at the machine. An attendant explained we have to tap the validated ticket twice to see the correct price, which was still $25 (the standard $12/hour charge). This parking situation was frustrating and unclear.

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.

I opted just got an Arnold Palmer but the drink menu had some cute cocktails and mocktails, as well as a nice selection of beer and wine. Instead of bread, our server brought us a basket of seasoned popcorn. The popcorn had almost like a Cajun flair, but it wasn't spicy. It reminded me of the Ground Round chain from when I was a little girl. We decided to try the corndog shrimp appetizer. I couldn't decide on an entree because everything looked so good, so I did the Parmesan chicken and my coworker did the steak salad. The shrimp arrived so quickly with four large pieces of shrimp on a stick wrapped in corn dog batter and fried to a golden brown, with a blueberry mustard dipping sauce. The shrimp were delicious and while I didn't get much of the blueberry in the mustard, I enjoyed the sweetness it provided. My Parmesan chicken was a crispy and juicy breaded chicken cutlet with a lemon cream, artichoke hearts, and what appeared to be prosciutto on top. It was served with a side of pesto couscous with grape tomatoes and cucumbers. I wish I had ordered mashed potatoes on the side, because I wanted something to soak up the lemon cream sauce, which was the highlight of the chicken. We also were served 3 mini cornbread muffins with honey butter. My coworker said the salad was just okay, and was a little on the small side. The desserts were definitely a MUST and if you visit Moonshine and don't save room for the Espresso Brownie or the Peanut Butter Pie, you're going to regret it. The brownie was so fudgey and warm and served with ice cream. It was decadent. The peanut butter pie was the biggest slab of PB pie I've ever had with a thick Oreo crust. I wish I had someone with me to share it, it was huge. Overall, if I lived in the area I would definitely be back to try other things.

    The food is delicious, and the setting is unique, but the service is a bit slow…read more The restaurant is located in the lobby of the Scarbrough Building. It's a small space, with only around eight tables and a tiny kitchen behind the counter. It's a bit hard to locate from outside. There's no big sign on the window indicating the restaurant's name, just a plastic A-frame sign outside the building's doors. When I got there, four of the eight tables were empty but the dirty dishes had not yet been cleared. It took close to 10 minutes for the tables to be bused. Because the kitchen is so small, I'd recommend going up to the counter to order as soon as you get there. I believe you can also place your order online using the QR code on the table, but I didn't try that method. I ordered the lox n found, a toasted croissant roll with smoked salmon, avocado, dill ricotta, arugula, onion, and capers. The menu says it also comes with a side of roasted potatoes, but mine didn't come with that. The sandwich was delicious and filling, so I definitely didn't need them, but I do feel like I didn't get what I paid for.

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.
