This is a great spot for the classic diner experience. You are literally walking into something from like 1979. The food is usually excellent but not always, never inedible, just depends on who’s in the kitchen. The waiters and waitresses are totally nice and you might even swear you heard someone say “kiss my grits” in the back ground. They have a great classic diner counter as well, for the single folk to grab a quick lunch. The chicken fried steak is prepared in classic style and is very tasty. Also can’t forget to mention… This is the place to get breakfast in the South Austin area. There are a couple of downsides the biscuits are kind of dry - so I recommend the texas toast. And the place is currently a little difficult to access due to never-ending road construction at the Oak Hill “Y” intersection, so pack your patience trying to get to the parking lot. I promise it will be worth the effort.

Excellent chicken fried steak. Delicious diner style breakfast and the lunch/dinner menu looks great. Waited less than 10 minutes on a Saturday morning at 9:00. Service was perfect.

This place has what we lost as a society. A place with free parking, a short wait time, and affordable dining. This is what comfort dining used to and SHOULD be. The options are no frills but satisfying. This is THEE PLACE you go to for your after Church fix. Whether it be a late breakfast, or good ol’ Cruisin’ Cuisine Americana served on a warm platter; Jim’s got you covered.

Greatest diner in Texas, amazing food, great service, never disappoints.
Hands down the best steak and eggs in Austin for us carnivores. This is also probably one of the few places in Austin that still has that American retro vibe to it without feeling like a rundown place both in quality and service. Please never go away.

I was really looking forward to trying this place after reading some solid reviews. I was greeted quickly and the food came incredibly fast. Unfortunately, it was fast for a reason. All of the meat (bacon, sausage, ham) was very dried out and tasted like it had been sitting under a heat lamp for a long time. The hash browns were undercooked. Left very unsatisfied and disappointed. I would not recommend this place for breakfast.

We loved our food and to sit in an old diner that still has that old diner charm just makes it all the more better.
