I have a long history with Cisco's -- this was the first place I ever had Mexican breakfast, back…read morewhen I was a senior at UT -- so I came in with real affection and nostalgia. Unfortunately, this visit was disappointing. The migas themselves had good flavor, and I still remembered loving the warm salsa served with migas and sausage. But on this visit, everything was served rather cold/tepid, which made the whole meal fall flat. Warm salsa can be wonderful when the plate is hot; when the food is lukewarm, it just doesn't have the same magic. We were first seated in the back room, which felt like a refrigerator, so we moved up front. Unfortunately, the ceiling fans didn't help the food stay warm either. The biscuits were also underwhelming -- somewhere shy of "meh." I wanted to love it again. I really did. Cisco's has history, charm, and a place in Austin memory. But breakfast needs to come out hot, especially dishes like migas, sausage, salsa, and biscuits. I hope this was an off day, because I'd love for the old spark to still be there.

"Good luck getting down that street without getting robbed," she reminisced. One might have felt Odyssean as he braved the muggers and pickpockets in order to reach his very own Ithaca, i.e. Cisco's. The finest Tex-Mex in Austin, despite the working class charm of Original Joe's, comes from the kitchen at Cisco's. The biscuits, softer than Penelope's lap; the breakfast tacos, folded crisper than the crush of her gown; the enchiladas, juicier than her amorous effluvia; and finally, the migas, they're pretty good migas. The dining area is split between a Googie modern room with chrome molding and terrazzo floors; then on the other side is a modern ranch with oak wainscoting and red Naugahyde. I'm sure Christmas lights were hung, every place in Austin has Christmas lights. A very helpful waitress told me that their enchiladas are award winning. Their sauce was more of a meat sauce than a chili pepper sauce, the latter being more common to a Californian such as myself. Still, very good. Not surprising that it won an award. I recommend ordering the migas biscuit. This allows you to sample two dishes in one. Saving money and saving space in your guts.

Another great neighborhood spot that we love going to…read more Easily walkable from home, it's a great place to get exceptional grub and beverages. Walk up window for ordering and pickup (including to-go orders) with a large shaded patio. Fast and friendly service. Food is insanely good. The classic torta with shredded tinga chicken is ginormous! Brian and I split the tortas here and they're still big. I literally eat 1/4 and get so full. Meats are seasoned and tenderized perfectly in all of their offerings. The OG torta with Black Forest ham is crazy good too. Amazing tacos, bowls, apps, and sides too, The hushpuppies are bomblicious! I mean who can turn down a jalapeño hush puppy? Not me! Everything is scratch-made & simply delectable. Yum x one million!

They've been serving consistently excellent food for decades, and that's one of the reasons they've become such an Austin institution. We used to get takeout for our breakfast on my long weekend shifts during my side gig at the IRS, so it also felt like a place of peace in comparison to that chaos. Joe's the kind of place where traditions are made, memories are shared, and you always leave looking forward to your next visit.

Having hop as a part of the name and have limited craft beer and local selection was disappointed. The lady taking my order was friendly and shared she had a close friend in the AF and we shared a convo around it. The atmosphere was pleasant. The flip side is I paid $29 for a burger, fries, and a beer. A large beer. I felt I overpaid, glad I didn't pay 9.25 for truffle fries.

Dan's has been a classic spot in Austin for many years and I haven't been here in at least 20…read moreyears. I decided to stop by because I had a taste for a cheeseburger. First of all, I would like to shout out Bianca for house and a positive attitude , a nice smile and excellent customer service. She was very patient, friendly and welcoming upon me entering the establishment, and that may the experience better.. The restaurant was pretty busy due to the popularity but everything seemed to be moving like a well oiled machine. She took my order accurately, repeated it back to me before placing it. The restaurant was clean the atmosphere seen vintage but yet relaxed. You could definitely tell that they have been around serving food for years. I got my order within about five minutes of waiting and upon taking it out the bag, I can see the juices dripping outside of the paper. That gave me the sign at this burger was perfectly cooked and also gave me that old school type nostalgic hamburger feel. I ordered curly fries from my side and they came out hot and fresh as well. Definitely a great feeling I should've eaten it there just to absorb the diner like experience, but I was on a go and had to leave.

Guy at the counter was really friendly and helpful. Great they focus on just a few items. This is why the high ranking! Got the hamburger but added jalapeños and bacon. The bacon was nice and thick. Not overly cooked. Just right! Son got the double burger with cheese and bacon. Both were fantastic. The onion rings are perfect! Not too much batter. Nicely thick and good size. The fries were great too. Not salty at all. Glad Dan's is so highly rated on here. It's a gem of a spot.

I am a fan of Texas Honey Ham Company and they are known good quality food and great service…read more The atmosphere here is casual and welcoming and the staff is always engaging and friendly. I usually place a phone to-go order but it is a great place for a quick lunch or laid-back meal. The food is ready when promised. They have a very large menu with lots of options. My go-to is the Choice Sandwich with 1/3 of a pound of finest Choice Slice Honey Ham, cheddar, lettuce, tomato, red onion, dirty mustard and mayo, served on a toasted fresh baked bun. I usually add avocado for a nice creamy texture. This is one of my favorite sandwiches because it is served warm with the bun toasted and it hits the spot with the flavorful ham and all the toppings. If you are a new customer they will offer you a sampler plate where you can try all of their homemade side dishes. Some of my favorite are the shells and cheese and ham bone soup. Overall, a reliable choice if you're craving a hearty, well-made sandwich. I will continue to come back for more of the delicious ham!

He had given me new updates on what's changed to Arlo's. He told me that they are no longer a good truck and moved to the ghost kitchen set-up out of the Lovebirds bar. He told me to order via the website and pick up at a side window. He even told me to call him back if the food isn't good. I ensured him that his food was the bomb diggity so there would be no need for a follow-up call. Whew Chile, if you're ever craving a BBQ burger, don't pass up the sweet, spicy, messy, and fulfilling goodness of this burger. Pair it with the tots and you got yourself a delicious meal. Speaking of the tots they are perfectly seasoned with salt. Big, juicy, thick ass burger. So good that you'd be in a food coma if you finish every bite in one sitting. Luckily I couldn't subject myself to continuous bed rest, I saved some for later so that I can continue to savor the luscious goodness. Absolute best as always!
