    Pro- food quantitynCon- parking and pricingnnParking is incredibly difficult to eat here, but what place in downtown Austin isn’t difficult at parking.

    When we first entered restaurant, the door greeter wouldn’t look at us. He kept eyes down and low voice the whole time.

    Once we sat down, our waitress was helpful and kind. She is very knowledgeable about the food she was serving.

    The parfait tasted like a key lime pie, yogurt a little bit on the runnier side. They add honey and banana to their parfait.

    I ordered the Benny Benedict breakfast. This was amazing, the brisket was delicious. The sauce is a bit on the tangy side.

    Side note, if they ask you for Avacado, (half an Avacado is $4.50) it’s a bit expensive

    Visited the downtown located on 3/5/26 and was not disappointed! If you get a chance to dine here, try to sit at the counter if you are not with a large group. Sitting here gives you the opportunity to see the working of this fantastic restaurant and interact a bit more with the staff.
    Servers were fantastic and very personable. Don't know who sets the standards for service here but the bar is high.
    Food is delicious! Wife had the brisket benedict and she would not share any so I know it was good. I had the chicken fried ribeye and it was AMAZING! So tender I could cut it with a fork. Wish I could come here every day!

    The Phoebe’s Diner downtown location is much bigger and nicer than the Oltorf location in south Austin. There’s free street parking directly across the street, which is a big plus downtown.

    The service was very warm and friendly but not as attentive.

    The yogurt parfait was delicious. I ordered it without the lemon curd and it was still fantastic. The portion was very generous so I couldn’t even finish it. The tater tots were perfectly crispy and soooo good dipped in ranch.

    A few sides were a bit disappointing. The mushrooms and spinach were a bit too salty, and the side of scrambled eggs looked very dry - my friend didn’t even eat them, and the bacon was so thick it tasted like ham.

    I would come back to try some other dishes.

    Was in Austin for work and we looked up a breakfast spot and this was close to us. Absolutely delicious! I'm extremely picky with eggs Benedict but I saw them come out with a dish and had to try it. The best eggs Benedict I've ever had in my life! Perfectly creamy lemony hollandaise on top of my perfectly cooked eggs over medium (I requested). The hollandaise never separated like I've had happen before. The biscuit was also delicious. The first full bite immediately won me over. Coffee was hot and delicious. Got some pancakes for the table and they were crispy on the outside and so moist and soft on the inside. Exactly how I love my pancakes.
    Wait staff was friendly and welcoming! I was there with a friend and we stayed for 2 hours, lost track of time chatting, and we weren't rushed at all. Luckily it was during the week and really early so we didn't hold up any tables. Next time I'm in Austin again, I will be returning to try something else on the menu.

    My wife and I were visiting Austin and had the opportunity to enjoy breakfast twice at the downtown location. As soon as we stepped through the door we made friends with Akiya and Andrea two beautiful souls. The food was tasteful and every bite you wanted more. These two ladies made it feel like we were family. Loved it! The atmosphere was far different than where we came from. Next time we visit we will for sure stop in.Base on my googles reviews I highly recommended this restaurant. Thank you
