Dalì-La RienzoJuly 27, 2015Awesome place to brunch and have breakfast, I totally recommend the Guacamole omelette with pancakes! Can't wait to come back and try some other deliciousness :) very casual place, love it!
Humara KausarSeptember 7, 2013The pancakes are cloud like fluffy - request bananas/choco chips. Orange juice is very fresh and the omelets are hearty. If you don't like avocado, ask them to go easy on them. I love this place!!
Rob PickettApril 6, 2014Everything the kitchen turned out looked great. The omelets were light & fluffy & stuffed with fresh grilled goodness. Pancakes were awesome! The fruit was fresh like the prince of Bel Air!- Rene FloresMay 5, 2012Read the back of the menu and learn about the common thread among The Omelettry, Magnolia Cafe, and Kerbey Lane Cafe - as well as some Austin history.
- Ashley HawesJanuary 22, 2014The Popeye omelette was amazing and hit the spot. I've never had sour cream on an omelette but it was great! The gingerbread pancakes were sweet but a nice change! Cash only!
- The buttermilk pancakes are the best. It gets busy around noon on the weekends. Get there early
Everything is prepared wonderfully. Good portion, fair prices, and fresh ingredients. Will go again
Policarpo al FrescoAugust 10, 2023When you can outsmart the crowds, this place is definitely worth checking out. Their delicious omelettes are a must-try!
Amor TiradoOctober 6, 2015This place was a really good find, but they need to update their address. We had uber take us to the wrong location. Popeye pancakes were delicious!!!
Love the new building. Still funky, but new. And of course gingerbread pancakes!!!
Elizabeth HallFebruary 11, 2015Best hole in the wall breakfast and heads up they are moving soon to a new location!
Jackie MannJuly 18, 2017My eggs Benedict were amazing, totally worth the half hour wait on a Sunday.
Sam MelnickFebruary 25, 2018The Spanish omelette is loaded with tasty, chunky salsa and the whole wheat pancakes are SO GOOD!
I've been eating here for 30 years and it hasn't changed a bit. Tasty food, relaxed atmosphere, and friendly, laid back staff.
Omri GoldshtromAugust 28, 2016Family friendly, great coffee, great food, lots of gluten-free options and customization- Ben ThomaAugust 9, 2015Kid-friendly? You bet! How many restaurants bring out crayons AND toys for the kids?
Good bagels, and I love to order scrambled eggs with cheese and spinach, because the omelettes are too big for me!
The new dining room is airy and comfortable. Overall it seems like the move was a step up!
RachaelAugust 8, 2014Veggie omelette is delish, with a generous portion of avocado at no extra charge(!).- Get the gingerbread pancakes, and ADD chocolate chips. If that's too sweet for you, add both pecans and chocolate chips. THAT is some happiness.
Candace LittleJanuary 26, 2017If you have Celiacs Disease I don't recommend ordering the gluten free pancakes. After a few times of cross contamination I wouldn't eat them again today I was hurling like the Exorcist both ways.
- Gingerbread pancakes are heaven. They are light and yummy!!!
Josh ViverosSeptember 17, 2016Home Fries are legit but the eggs are crap. This place is a little over-hyped.
Rick PearsonSeptember 27, 2015Good food, great pancakes, mediocre service, they are proud of their long time tradition of serving bad coffee with 2% milk ( no half and half)
CJ RombergerMarch 30, 2013To bypass the wait, consider sitting at the counter. I thought the service at the counter great.
Amanda BendreyOctober 11, 2010The wait is long but the food is SO worth it. The pancakes and of course omelets are amazing!
Christine NewmanJune 29, 2013Be warned, cash only! Good food but no kids menu, so pretty pricey for a family compared to other local places. Also no refills on sodas. Long wait unless you get here early.
Greg OdumApril 30, 2018The service is usually stellar, but on this day, the gentleman behind the counter was unnecessarily rude and snippy.
SarahJune 21, 2011The food is great, but the cash only thing is a pain. If ppl have to pay a fee to use an atm, they're probably going to tip less.
