This Deep Ellum mainstay is known for its quirky wait staff and a chicken-fried steak that is the best in the world, according to the menu.

Although they have plenty of fantastic plates, you should definitely consider the chicken fried steak! It's excellent. Check out their website to see if there is live music the night you are visiting.

If you want a chicken-fried steak and some farmers' market veggies or huevos rancheros, this is the place. You'll also get some live entertainment on certain nights. [Eater 38 Member]

Chicken fried steak and eggs are a must try. Very friendly staff and great vibe overall. Blueberry pancakes are very good. Who doesn't like bacon...there's pepper in it too!

A must stop for breakfast. They have a very good Chicken Fried Steak. Be sure to get a side or two of bacon. It's thick & great.

Come early for brunch on Sunday. The line for a table at brunch moves slowly, especially if those already seated have ordered the hot-selling hot cakes. Read more

Whatever you order add bacon! I have been coming here since I discovered this place by accident years ago. The grilled Cheese is fantastic!

Probably the best pancakes around Dallas, and I know that's a big statement. The coffee is superb here. My favorite is the Breakfast #2.

Seat yourself cafe. Expect to wait about 5-10 minutes to see server. Read the menu online and have your order ready for them to take. Have you CC ready to check you out when they bring your food.

They don't offer a Bloody Mary, but a Michelada will do the trick as a companion to their excellent Huevos Rancheros. Austin vibe comes to the Deep Ellum district.

This place does not serve french fries. I repeat, this place does not serve french fries!! But everything I've had on the menu is amazing!! Fresh and local ingredients.

Don't ask, just get the Chicken fried steak!!!! Their other brunch options are delicious too!! Just overall amazing breakfast
Alexandra LeiteSeptember 2, 2011
Eggs, toast and tons of mexican plates like Dallas customers like it. For a good espresso, walk a block to Murray Coffee shop.

Get the black bean raviolis with the chili & sprinkled cheese only on top. It taste just like the burritos sonic used to sell!!

Friendly staff with good service. Huevos Rancheros was very good with the green chili!

Old school diner kind of place with origami on the ceiling. Rich cultural experience before checking out the rest of Deep Ellum.

Allgood breakfast tacos are good for lunch too, not just breakfast.
Alex WasemMay 16, 2014
The migas were very good. Probably the best I've had in the metroplex.

Ellum salad and fish tacos are amazing!

The Migas are as good as anything you can get in Austin!

If you're trying to embody Austin, don't use HEB tortillas-gotta love rubbery breakfast tacos.

Service wasn't very good. Empty drinks forgot food. Good chicken fried steak and bacon but were the only good things. Black beans were canned ranch style and pancakes were elastic.

Try the Veggie And Pesto Sandwich - (via @Foodspotting)

Amazing food for a great price. Awesome atmosphere!

If you like spicy salsa, order their tasty salsa and get a chopped up jalepeno...perfection!

Get the mega egg sandwich! It's to die for!
Dutch EvansAugust 9, 2011
Anything...anything with bacon. Oh, and ask for extra deli-style pickles.

Never miss the Redneck Happy Hours with live music from the Boys Named Sue. Get the chicken fried steak and save room for apple pie.

Bummer that they don't have wifi. I'd be here more often if they did.

Having the worse service right now 10 mins without a waiter coming up to us to greet us #needcoffeenow

Try the Breakfast Plate #2 - Seems like old times :-)
Panda JoyApril 5, 2015
Nothing "all good" about our server, food served with a smile usually tastes better. Might come back in hopes of a better experience, but not overly impressed.
Mike SnyderNovember 15, 2011
Try the grilled cheese sandwich, the best ever!
Frank SSeptember 28, 2011
Main Street salad... not the best choice. Order the Hat Trick or the Chicken Fried Steak instead.
ShannonDecember 21, 2011
The breakfast potatoes are pretty delicious.
Lukasz JarochowskiJuly 2, 2016
Pancakes, coffee

Order the grilled cheese sandwich (w/poblanos) and add bacon.

Their chili is deliciously satisfying on a cold winter day
Preston FJuly 10, 2012
$1.75 for a CAN of coke? You must be on crack. At least list can on the menu.
