I’ve driven by The Omelettry so many times since I moved to Austin. I’ve been wanting to try it for years. We finally had a chance to eat breakfast there a few Mondays ago.
The place is very Austin-like. It’s been around since the 70s, and it shows. The waitstaff is nonchalant, but seem comfortable in their work environment. I noticed the regulars got better service, but that’s typical in small places like this; no big deal.
We both had the ham and cheese omelet with home fries. The portions were huge and the prices reasonable. My omelet was good but the homefries were a little on the overcooked and bland side. I wanted to try the gingerbread pancakes but it seemed a bit too much, even as hungry as I was.
It was a fun way to spend a Monday morning having breakfast. I enjoy people watching and The Omelettry doesn’t disappoint. Although, I could have missed seeing the guy with way too much of his ass crack showing, and been better off. I just strategically moved out of his half moon view. I must go back to try those gingerbread pancakes! Oh, and make sure you have cash; they don’t take plastic.
