the blue star cafeteria is one of my favorite spots to eat in austin! when i first heard about this place, i was envisioning an austin version of luby's. when a friend suggested it, i was thinking, "a cafetreia, really?" but i was so wrong! i almost wish they would change their name to the blue star cafe or something. contrary to what the name may lead you to believe, this is a great place! they have really good food and it is a really trendy setup.
my personal favorite is their grilled cheese sandwich. i know, a grilled cheese? you can make that at home. you think i like it because i work with kids. false. i am telling you, this is the best grilled cheese i have ever had. and it comes with this delicious chutney! hmmm. oh and the grilled cheese is on the happy hour menu for half off.
if you are looking for a healthier option, they also have some great salads. try it out! you won't regret it! i stole these pics from their website, but i thought you needed to see this place.
