This is one of the unique places in Austin to have a great brunch...
On a Sunday, service takes quite long. And the place is super noisy, because the tables are a bit too long, so you have to shout for the other person to hear you.
First time here, the waffle was delightful! I had the chai latte on ice which was so full of flavor as well. However, the chicken, the chicken is where this place shines. It's so tender, so juicy, and with a delightful kick that is so often missing in southern fried chicken. Whatever you order, I highly recommend getting a side of chicken. You won't regret it. Our hostess was so sweet and our waiter Fernando was a Rock Star. This was absolutely a fabulous place to enjoy brunch...read full review
