The service here is horrible and the food usually takes a while, but a great place for late-nighters, food is always suprisingly excellent for a diner and if you dont mind waiting it's a good spot!

Pros: affordable, awesome breakfast food

Cons: service, wait, etc

The Migas occupied a substantial amount more than half the plate and were piled high, crispy hash browns, and golden home fries filled the remainder of the plate, and three little containers of salsa were balanced on the edge. The impressive mountain (as opposed to a small plateau) of Migas at first glance could be construed as worrisome, conjuring up the thought that Star Seeds substitutes quantity for quality, but such a thought is banished as an egregious falsehood the second a forkful of Migas hits the taste buds. The Star Seeds’ Migas are, simply put, divine. The eggs were fluffy, and mixed in with them was the perfect proportion of tortilla chips which remained just crispy enough to crunch slightly between the teeth. As for vegetables it seems that Star Seeds struck upon the brilliant idea of actually putting a good quantity of them in: great big jalapeno rings, and juicy tomatoes, delicious! At first glance the Star Seeds’ Migas do not seem to have all that much cheese on them but that is only because Star Seeds does not simply melt the cheese on top, it actually (eegads) mixes the cheese in (what an inspired concept) so that every bite, not just the ones close to the top, contain cheesy goodness. Indeed you cannot lift a fork of Star Seeds Migas without having egg, cheese, tortilla, and veggie together. Furthermore something fantastic occurs when you finish a plate of Star Seeds Migas: you find yourself full, and not of beans or tortillas…but filled with Migas. Simply perfect.

I was hungry last night like I usually am and decided to try some place different. I went to this little restaurant on the side of I-35 called Star Seeds. When I first walked in I was greeted by a beautiful waitress named Molly. The menu had lots of selection and I ordered the spanish burger. The food came out fast and seemed very fresh. Goat cheese was oozing from the burger like I don't even know. Molly our waitress was on the ball, like I said before she's a looker. When the bill came out I was amazed on how cheap the total came out to, considering the quality and freshness of my oozing goat cheese burger. I would recommend this 24 hour piece of heaven to anyone. I give Star Seeds two thumbs up!!!!

Pros: wait staff

Starseeds used to be an exciting place when it was a dive. It was a sort of adventure to see how bad the service was and how cheap the food would be. Lately, though, the prices have climbed and the service is only marginally better. It's no longer a dive, which means it's not really anything special.

Pros: Open all the time

Cons: Service, quality of food

A group of us ate here at 2a.m. on a Saturday. We were seated immediately, but it took us over an hour to receive our food. The breakfast taco was GIGANTIC, but it wasn't particularly great. The best part of the night was the Rockstar Queso - an absolute must!!

Pros: rockstar queso, late hours

Cons: long wait, average food

OK. For anyone wondering what Star Seeds is about, you have to take it's reputation with a grain of salt (as the extremely polarized views here would suggest). The staff is well-meaning, but generally short-handed. The place is so crowded that they probably don't have the space to afford a few extra sets of hands. In a rush, you'll get drinks, food, and a generally all right meal from their best servers. When it's slow, you may even get a long conversation and entertaining insight. From my experience, the people who work there are far less intimidating or rude than they might accidentally seem on a bad day. It's a personal experience, and if you frequent the place, you'll find that the staff will really open up to you. Treat them well and they will more than reward the favor. And if Jen or Lenee is there, treat yourself to a great dining experience with either. Not only are they fast, they're both pretty much as cool as it gets. However, don't expect to walk in there and get six star, gourmet restaurant service when there's a wait list and one waiter running their butt off. Appreciate it for what it is and enjoy it or else you might as well just go somewhere bland and uninteresting instead.

Pros: Music, Tacos, Beers

We had just come back from a night out on 6th street and were in search of a place to eat. A friend suggested Star Seeds. That was a bad idea. I am not a complete a hole when it comes to dining out. I just like certain particulars to be in order. First off, I like cleanliness. I prefer to be at peace and know that my food won't contain hair, an insect found in Men in Black the movie (im not allowed to say it in this review..i am being censored for some reason), or any other thing/bacteria/creepy crawly that it is not supposed to. At Star seeds you get the direct impression that the sanitation levels are low. The bathroom is dirty. The waiters look kind of grungy and dirty. The dishes and cups they serve out of give a dirty vibe. I know that they were trying to go for cool hip urbanite...that is a....kind of I dont care Im so trendy I dont have to follow society's rules....blah blah. However, they missed the mark. I would rather get a smiling professional waiter and correctly prepared food in a clean kitchen/restaurant than eat again at this fake hippy cafe.

The food is bland and poor quality, the service is terrible. This place is not hip and cool, its filthy and falling apart. The roof leaks and smells, I ate there once and worried I might get sick. Dennys is open, and even though I dont recommend Denny's. at least its a tolerable environment.

Cons: dirty, filthy, not cool and possibly a health hazard

I think they need to understand the difference between "hip" and just plain dirty. The atmosphere was ok and the music was good, but it seemed like they did go out of their way to be extra rude. They messed up my order and when i told the waitress, she was very in-my-face about it and it took her forever to bring my *cold* and puny portioned order. The servings were defintiely not generous, now i don't know if this is because i asked her to fix my order and incurred her wrath or if its because thats how much it should have actually been. I have to say my experience was complete when the waitress sprayed her flying snot at us when she sneezed and proceeded to wiped her nose with her arm. That's just nasty regardless of the attitude. Overall, they treated us like we were doing them a favor by being there, and needless to say i will NEVER return. I was so appalled at my experience that i signed up for this stupid citysearch site just so i could give them a bad review. Hey Star seeds cafe, maybe you should try to follow Kerby Lane's lead - you know, people that actually wash and want their customers to be there.
