Birraporetti's

Very rarely in Texas can you find a restaurant that lets you sit outside to enjoy the lovely sunshine.

But, we find their best food is displayed during their sunday brunches, which are served buffet style on 5 tables and offer you pasta, eggs benedict, chicken, fresh fruit, a positive cornucopia of breads and pastries, as well as omelets made on the spot and OMG-waffles (oh, my goddess, they are good)..right out of the waffle iron and onto your plate and decorated with fresh strawberries or whatever you wish. Sunday brunch also has live music (as opposed to dead), and excellent mimosas. Date rating = **** Special occasion rating = **** B ... more
