L'estelle House

This place is awesome!! What a gem on Rainey Street! We were sadly only able to go there once, but we would have gone there for breakfast every day of our visit to Austin! Go see Leo and just be ready to eat excellent food in an awesome setting! We went for breakfast. I had the brisket taco and it was ridiculous! It's more like an omelet on top of a corn tortilla. The brisket was amazingly good! And they put a homemade jalapeno jam and tomato salsa on top of it. I'm still craving it! My wife had the Tartine with salmon and she loved it also! The setting with their planter boxes, lights and tables just gives it a different feel than any other place in the area. Do yourself a favor if you are looking for breakfast on Rainey St, and skip IHOP and the other few places that are open, and just go to L'estelle! And also, then go there for lunch and dinner also! They have a very cool menu that has some good variety of items and flavors!

Go there. Order. Eat. Hang. OMG. Pork Belly Banh Mi Taco for $6 and to die for? Are you kidding me? Then the Island Salmon for $7??? Among the best, if not the best, food and prices on Rainey Street. Say hi to proprietor, Iba Thiam while you are there. What a cool place, great food, dialed in prices, and nice people. Wow.

Peak wait time on google reviews stated 15 mins - we waited 45 mins for simple brunch menu items and it’s not even crowded. The guy taking our order seemed hungover and was not friendly at all. Def do not recommend ordering food here.

Great vibe for breakfast- reggae playing, bamboo canopy, great coffee—and beautiful croissants! seems like menu changes- but that’s ok w/me. African brisket breakfast— yum! Highly recommend

Amazing, hidden-away spot on Rainey St! Excellent chill place on Rainey street. So calm and a bit set back that you might miss it! The fries were awesome and the herb aioli was amazing with it. The menu was a bit limited, but as a small bite (late-night or otherwise), it was perfect. It went especially well with beer and wine at the bar in the back of the House: The Drafting Room. Drafting Room review: Tucked behind L’estelle House and pretty quiet and chill, so you might miss it, but definitely don't! A solid selection of local beers on draft, plus a very impressive selection of wines on draft and in bottles. Some great Italian and Austrian wines, plus some nice ones from Washington state as well. The bartender/owner was super friendly and rad and the vibe is just really chill and friends. We had an great time!

Wow, what a great brunch here this past weekend. They were very busy considering it was the labor day weekend, but they still made sure to communicate clearly with us throughout our time there and were working very hard. Since it was busy they were honest and told us it would take about 45 minutes to get the food, which was very nice to say up front. That didn't bother us at all and we went ahead and found some seats outside and hung out while grabbing a drink over at the bar in the back while we waited. They got us all waters and made sure we were doing alright, and Holly the owner/manager made sure we were taken care of and looked to be working very hard for the success of this great local shop. The food each of us got was delicious and well worth the wait. Would definitely recommend for a brunch or meal when you're down on Rainey street.

Stopped by for dessert and hot chocolate. Wonderful dessert, will definitely be trying dinner next time. They had 2 live bands on Friday and the owner said they'd have more on Saturday. The band we listened to, Nether Hour was very good. One of the coziest, best places on Rainey St

Amazing flavors and fresh eats. It's obvious that a lot of thought went into their food. The menu is not huge, but it certainly doesn't need to be. The owners are friendly, which only adds to the top notch service. Nice little atmosphere in the outdoor patio. Very chill, and comfortable. Do it!
