Reviews For Cafe 290 Manor

Everything was great! My husband and I both loved our food. And they have a pretty decent amount of selections. Our waitress was wonderful. Very attentive, and friendly. Prices are reasonable, especially since we got a ton of food (had to get a to-go container to take home what I couldn't finish) Good atmosphere. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit. And we will definitely be back! There's a lot of dishes that we want to try.

Old-timey Cafe has a fun atmosphere and great food! Breakfast and main foods are available all day. Our table of four had three people ordering breakfast and one person ordering sides. Cafe 290 has generous portions, quick service, and a great atmosphere!

Stopped by 290 cafe. Ordered chicken fried steak and it was HUGE. Others ordered breakfast and they are enjoyed it. Had to sample a slice of Reese’s pie, oh that was GOOD. Service was great. Will come back if around the area.

Cafe 290 is a great change to our dining experience in the Taylor, TX area. From great breakfast selections to amazing entree choices, this restaurant has it all. I believe the greatest quality this location possesses is the staff onsite. Marisol gave us an opportunity to overview the menu and came back with a much needed enthusiasm in the food service industry. Ken, the owner, came by to ask if anything additional was needed. Owners, like him, are what help a restaurant and staff to thrive, not only survive, in this face paced environment. The chicken tenders were properly sauced and glazed. The chicken fried steak was cooked & spiced delightfully and was the home style meal it was intended to be. Their special (Chuck’s Deluxe) is a staple for their other site in Manor and is hoping to be one here with the Ducks. Come through and enjoy some home style cooking with a twist, this side of 79!

First time here! Excellent roadside diner food! Generous portions and fresh food. The Club sandwich was HUGE and the fried pickle spears were an unexpected and excellent side dish. Not pictured was the delicious Cherry cheesecake I had for dessert! Heather, our waitress, was super friendly and attentive. What a great little gem of a diner just outside Austin!

Great local cafe. Breakfast items are great, fun appetizers, good value for the money. They do get busy during peak hours (weekends and dinner hours) but definitely worth checking out.

I have only ever been to the Taylor location. So far I have tried the chicken fried steak which was the best chicken fried steak I've ever had in my life!!! I don't know what they do with the breading but it's magical!! The 290 nachos are super good, as was the quesadilla!! The burgers are very delicious and I had them with the parmesan fries and I've also tried the onion rings both of them are very very good!!! Chuck's deluxe is so good that queso that they put all over it is absolutely phenomenal!!!! The catfish is absolutely delicious!!! It's the best in town!!! Hands down!!!! As far as their breakfast goes I've tried the omelettes, the farmhand and the Migas. I would highly recommend all three of the above!!!! And last but not least I did try the Reese's pie and I can't tell you how much I love that I think I could eat that everyday!!!! Next thing on my list is to try the shrimp And a different pie,.
