Whenever I travel I go though Magnolia pancake withdrawal. No one makes 'em like these guys. My regular order (which is hard to get in other parts of the world) is whole wheat pancakes with bananas and pecans. Yum! If you order an omlette definitely choose the pancake option (I think if you get just one -which is plenty- it counts as an even substitute for the other sides instead of an upcharge, and it's plenty of food.) If you don't want a whole omlette I order one of the above-mentioned pancakes and a veggie taco (Excellent) or, a three alarm taco if you like heat.
I've been less impressed with non-breakfast foods except for their mud and landscapes which are unique and delicious.
Pros: An Austin original, Regular funky art, Useful bulletin board
Cons: long wait for brunch
