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.

I rarely make it to Round Rock, but after my first visit to Waffle Love, I'll definitely be back…read more A friend brought me here for breakfast, and we decided to share a waffle flight so we could try a variety of items. 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.

Parking is pretty easy: a good amount of parking on in a small lot and on the street, but there's always available spots due to the low amount of traffic in the area. The place is small with only 6-ish tables, but again, not a lot of traffic, so there's usually a few tables available if you're dining in. The staff is super nice and friendly. 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.

Everyone seems upbeat and eager to help, from sampling the beers to recommendations on the menu. This particular visit I was looking by for something different and ended getting the "wrapper". A comforting wrap with everything that chills you out and makes you not want to leave. I should have had this during a game as we didn't have time to hang a longer period of time. But it was delicious. Took half home due to its size lol. The beer selection is pretty good too, so if you are wanting a light beer (try the victory blonde that's in-house brewed) or try some of the variety of IPAs, it's there. There is outdoor seating with additional TVs as well. Definitely worth a visit if you are in downtown Pflugerville.

John "MF'n" Brotherton was a growing tour de force in Central Texas BBQ, holding down the northern…read moreAustin metropolitan area with Brotherton's Black Iron Barbecue. 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.

The pasta, on the other hand, was delicious, although I felt it could've used a little more depth of flavor--maybe an extra touch of garlic or seasoning to really bring everything together. Overall, I had a really good experience, enjoyed my time there, and would definitely give the drinks their own shoutout because they were AMAZING!
