We got there right at 10 when they opened for weekend brunch, which was a good call because when we left at 10:40 AM there was already a line out the door. Everything we ordered was very tasty, and an affordable price. Service was very good too! It's a cozy place inside and definitely is underground as the name suggests. It was pretty chilly inside so bring a jacket if it's cold outside. Home fries were yum, and chipotle hollandaise was a highlight! I'd say 4.5 stars because of the fact that most of the benedict/breakfast options contained pork and they're not great about substitutions which restricted what i was able to order. Rounding down to 4 stars because of this and because I wasn't quite blown away in the way that I want 5 stars to do for me
Such a great experience, from the great service by Jay to the amazing food (Diablo was elite) this place checks all the boxes and well worth a visit!
As a first timer at Arturo's Underground Cafe, I had a wonderful experience. This will definitely be a spot I'll go to in the future. There was a bit of a wait when arriving, but it was reassuring to hear from exiting customers that the food was great. The restaurant has a very unique style, it feels intimate yet cozy. The food was very delicious, I had the opportunity to try the Diablo, Caribbean French toast, and the Último sandwich. The food was cooked well, had great flavor, and it left you feeling stuffed! I can't wait to try different items from the menu for my next visit!
Must try if you're a breakfast or brunch lover! Stopped by Arturo's on a Saturday around 10 AM. The set-up of this place is really interesting as you go down steps to reach the entrance. General ambiance and design of the cafe is charming and kinda quirky with all the different decor. Good amount of seating inside. Our server was quick in taking our orders, but they were pretty busy and it took some time for us to get our food. Chinati ($17, 4.5/5) - The addition of the pulled pork, cheddar jack, and pico de gallo added complexity in terms of flavor to the tried and true combination of eggs, hollandaise sauce, English muffins - The pulled pork is slow cooked and really tender Diablo ($16, 5/5) - Features grilled jalapeño cheese bread, bacon, over easy eggs, chipotle hollandaise, pico de gallo, and home fries - This would be my favorite out of the 2! The cheese bread is really tasty and I liked the chipotle hollandaise. The home fries were seasoned well too. All in all, would recommend checking out Arturo's! The price is on the higher end for some dishes, but reasonable given the large portion sizes. The dishes are pretty rich & heavy though, so just be prepared that you might be in a food coma afterwards.
Eggcellent breakfast tacos! Two seems to be a good serving for a moderate appetite. They were freshly made (takes a few minutes) but well worth the wait. Ingredients seem fresh and the pico is perfect. Highly recommend for a quick bite!
Hidden, small underground spot. Very cute and family-feel. There was a line outside but we waited maybe 15 minutes. I got the marfa eggs benedict and it took me by surprise. I LOVE eggs benedict & this was delicious. The classic hollandaise sauce was so flavorful and creamy. The english muffin was well buttered. I would come back for the food! Service was also great, our server checked on us multiple times and we got our food very quickly!
Absolutely loved this place!!! The staff was sweet. The ambience was comforting and lots of locals. You grab your own refills and talk to people which is communal. And well the food was delicious. I just had two tacos (bean, bacon, avocado & bean, potato, chorizo) and a latte and was more than satisfied. So much so that I was craving it the next morning. Oh and one last thing. I bought the chocolate cookie for my son and forgot to give to him until the next day and it was still incredibly soft! It must have been a brownie cookie.
One of the best hidden gems for breakfast in ATX. We enjoyed everything from the coffee drinks to the food. Service was prompt and friendly. The scene was moody, dark, and eclectic. I ordered the migas scramble + jalapeños, and it was truly one of the best breakfasts I've had in a long time. My man ordered the bacon jack, and he was equally pleased with his meal. We ordered a mocha and a cappuccino to drink, and for takeout, we got two caramel lattes. I didn't notice until we were leaving that they also offered additional holiday latte flavors, gingerbread, pumpkin, etc. We will undoubtedly return!
Great breakfast spot near campus! The service was also super fast! Unassuming spot but was very clean. I would definitely return. We got the Benedict and the migas and both were delish.
This was my second visit. I learned that the breakfast tacos are to go only. We ordered to go last time. I got the Peace and I think the Diablo tacos. Both were absolutely flavorful, nice portions, and drew us back. This time we dined in and ate at the outside tables. I ordered the Peace scramble. The outside dining is perfect for people watching without a large crowd. Cozy seating for small groups. Food was great, service is friendly. Very casual spot.
