My husband and I are seeing if we should make Cafe 290 "Our Spot" since we love diners and it's…read morereasonably close to our house. We've been twice for lunch, but yesterday we spontaneously decided to break routine and go out for breakfast. We're still off of our diets after vacation in Paris, and we both secretly wanted to extend vacation (and indulgent food) one more day before facing work and healthy habits on Monday. Normally we get eggs for breakfast at other diners, but this time we were thinking alike, and decided to get the thing most unlike what we regularly eat - waffles topped with bananas, chocolate chips, and peanut butter, with chicken on the side. Sugar free syrup was an option, thankfully, because I have to reign it in somewhere. The waffle wasn't quite as crispy as I like, but with all those toppings it would be hard for it to be bad! However, the chicken tenders were the surprise hit of the meal! They were moist and the breading was light and crispy. There were quite a few people there on a Sunday morning, and some seemed to be regulars. I'd like to find something on the menu that wows me so that we become regulars too, but so far it's coming in at just satisfactory. Since we don't allow ourselves many treat meals, the calories really have to be worth it to keep coming back. We'll give it a few more tries. Our servers were extremely friendly. I want to love this place! We'll try a few more times and see what the verdict is!

Cafe 290 is a no frills, classic roadside diner. They offer your typical American breakfast and…read morelunch options as well as impressive looking cakes and pies. My go-to is The 290 which is two eggs, a choice of meat, and a choice of fries, hash browns, or grits. It also comes with a short stack of fluffy buttermilk pancakes. It's such a filling combo and I share the pancakes with my husband. They are delicious! Service here is always fast and friendly. They keep your coffee cup full even when the diner is packed!

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 came here around 10am Sunday morning to grab breakfast with friends. The restaurant had had both…read moreindoor and outdoor seating, and it was packed inside. 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. He did a good job despite being occupied with several tables. Overall it was a very nice, cozy breakfast and brunch location.

My wife and I came on a Friday evening, around 6 PM or so. We found this truck while visiting…read moreanother truck right across from it one day--we told ourselves we would be back for a burger the next time we were in the area. We're so glad we gave it a try! Buns on the Run ATX is among 3-4 other food trucks at its location--it might not be preferable to eat outside with this heat, but know that this spot does have a covered seating area with a good amount of benches to sit in and enjoy your meal. We were greeted by a very nice woman inside who took our order. I went basic this time around and ordered a Cheeseburger with a side of fries. The seasoning on both was perfect and the patty was SOOOO soft and juicy. The buns used were airy and soft as well. Ugh. It was just delicious, I regretted not getting the double patty. Not sure what their sauce includes and I don't want to guess and be super wrong, but it did contribute to the overall taste of the burger. The fries had a seasoning that also gave them great flavor, they were right in the perfect middle between crisp and soft, which I personally like! Skip the fast food and make your way here and enjoy something local and fresh!! Definitely will be back!!

Inside you'll find high ceilings, simple dining space and a log cabin feel. In other words, it's nothing really special inside, but they do have 15 taps of craft beer. Their primary focus is on pizza, but they do have salads, sandwiches, and wings. We decided on their large 14 inch pizza which is perfect for two. The pizza and our two beers were reasonably priced and yes, the tip screen will be waiting. This is not the best pizza on the planet, but it is worthy of four stars since it is very good.

That saved the plans! I didn't have time to look over the menu much, so I ordered an old favorite, the avocado toast with salmon, watermelon salad, and cookie. The cookie was even better than I remember, which is quite an achievement, because I'm on a real chocolate chip cookie kick, trying lots of amazing chocolate chip cookies lately. My friend ordered the hamburger, which doesn't sound very exciting to me, but she was happy with it. It was the perfect evening to sit out on the sidewalk and watch the world go by while we ate and caught up on life! We'll be back!

The first time it was the day after a snow storm and nothing else was really open. We were staying at another hotel down the street and decided to walk around town and this is one of the few places that were open so it was a great chance to come in and try out their food. Our waitress was amazing and very hospitable. It was a cool diner setup that's also connected to a hotel so it made sense where this was probably their only place for food but we were very thankful that they were open. I got that duck confit and waffle. It ended up being very delicious. And it sounds amazing too. And of course the waffle is in the shape of Texas. I also ordered coffee and our waitresses amazing about refilling it every time we're running low. Definitely recommend coming here if you're looking for great dining experience here in Austin. This place was so good we came back again the following year we were in town.

We didn't know what to expect based on the reviews but were pleasantly surprised by the delicious food and fast service! Over the course of our hotel stay, we had the opportunity to try a variety of breakfast items off of the menu, and everything was solid. I absolutely loved the spicy avocado toast (to which I added scrambled eggs on top) and the breakfast burrito! All the ingredients on the avocado toast worked together perfectly from the pickled red onions to the garlic chili oil, and the spicy chorizo + crispy potatoes in the breakfast burrito was to die for. My husband enjoyed his dishes as well -- breakfast sando and chia seed pudding.
