The restaurant interior was very clean and quiet. It’s very spacious; not many people in here during the Sunday’s lunch time. There was the grab-and-go counter and it also served the salad, sandwiches, burritos, chicken tenders, etc. It’s great to enjoy your time here. The kitchen closes at 3pm and the cafe closes at 4pm.

Located on the second floor of the Texas history museum. Good, simple Cafe type food for a reasonable price. My loaded baked potato was $5.00, fresh and delicious. Although, there are bad reviews from several years ago, the place appears to have been recently redone and must be under new management.

It is what it is: a museum cafeteria. I haven't been to a cafeteria that serves Gourmet meals yet. I had the Shepard Pie (which is only served on weekends).

We ate at the cafe on 7-9-19. Our food was fine and the atmosphere was fine, EXCEPT for the youngish woman working at the cashier. We came in and asked if the cafe was open and she said not for 15 minutes. Then later we asked (for future reference) about breakfast and she said it was over. Turns out we COULD have had breakfast when we arrived, which we would have liked, and that when she said the cafe was closed, that meant closed FOR LUNCH (even though all we'd said was "is the cafe open yet?). This youngish woman (she wears glasses) clearly hated us, and all human life in the museum and cafe (possibly excepting herself, possibly not). She was rude and just this short of hostile. The cafe would be a nice place if not for her. She nearly ruined our...

This place is the worst. For the ridiculous food prices, hot or other, you would think the customer service would at least be better in a place that sees people daily visiting because of the access to the museum. They don't acknowledge you right away, and if they do, when you have a question, it's answered with a very condescending tone. Like you shouldn't ask questions, just get what you get so I can move along the line, which by the way, the last two visits when I was in line, no one was behind me. I guess it's understood you're better off ordering outside the premises for reasonably priced food and...

This place is unbelievable! They have a wide assortment of drinks and food, and tonnns of space to sit. They have outdoor seating on a balcony overlooking skyscrapers! The food I recommend the beef tacos, I tried the other flavors and they just weren’t as good. They have this huge potato they give you with the potato orders. They have fresh salads you can get, and ice cream too and hot coffee. This place is great. It’s not SO expensive either like everywhere...
